The Other McCain

"One should either write ruthlessly what one believes to be the truth, or else shut up." — Arthur Koestler

Two Kinds of Jews

Philip Klein explains:  [T]he difference between a Jewish liberal and a Jewish conservative is that when a Jewish liberal walks out of the Holocaust Museum, he feels, “This shows why we need to have more tolerance and multiculturalism.” The Jewish conservative feels, “We should have killed a lot more Nazis, and sooner.” Exactly so, and […]

PA-12: ELECTION DAY!

It’s been three weeks since I first put in a phone call to Tim Burns’ campaign headquarters, and I’ve since made three trips to Pennsylvania’s 12th District to cover this special election. The polls show a dead heat, and Dave Weigel at the Washington Post suspects Democrats are feeling confident, but they may just be playing the […]

CWCID For NYT From AllahPundit?

by Smitty The NYT engaged in respectable journalism and hammered Richard Blumenthal, the Connecticut AG, for attempting to assing himself off as having served in Vietnam. AllahPundit updates his post to say: Credit where credit is due: No doubt it pained the NYT to drop a bomb on one of the few surefire Democratic winners […]

BHO Can’t Nationalize The Oil Companies

by Smitty Sure, it seems like nationalizing the oil companies is the next logical thing, but there remains a pressing question: who would he next demonize? Software hasn’t been demonized yet.

Miss USA Stripper Contest Scandal!

No sooner was Rima Fakih named Miss USA than Americans erupted in outrage. No, I’m not talking about Michelle Malkin and Debbie Schlussel. I’m talking about Miss Fakih’s sponsors in the “Stripper 101” contest: The Web site for WKQI-FM (95.5) has photos of a dark-haired young woman they say is Rima Fakih of Dearborn, who was crowned […]

PA-12: Gold Star Mom for Tim Burns

Just got off the phone with Angela Lash, outreach coordinator for Tim Burns, who tells me that Arizona “Gold Star Mom” Debbie Lee — whose Navy SEAL son was killed Iraq — has been going door-to-door campaigning with the Republican candidate in Pennsylvania’s 12th District. “I was on the campaign trail this weekend with Tim Burns […]

Blame Glenn Beck

A liberal warns us that extremist right-wing racists are taking over . . . Israel! [T]he Netanyahu coalition is the product of frightening, long-term trends in Israeli society: an ultra-Orthodox population that is increasing dramatically, a settler movement that is growing more radical and more entrenched in the Israeli bureaucracy and army, and a Russian […]
