The Other McCain

Power Line Interviews Karl Rove

by Smitty A great interview conducted by John over at Power Line. The interview is excellent, covers a broad range of topics, and leaves the audience wanting a copy of Courage and Consequence: My Life as a Conservative in the Fight. What is KR up to?  Fox News, WSJ, columnist for Newsweek, speeches, and low-level […]

Obi’s Sister Is Four Years Old Today

by Smitty Update: can overkill overcome oversights? A great blog, with my favorite color as the main theme. Following Stacy McCain’s How to Get a Million Hits on Your Blog in Less Than a Year increased my traffic significantly, even though I’ve not hit the million mark yet. That’s not really the point here. What’s […]

Rule 5 Sunday

by Smitty Update: Some of the new clone bots are unaware of our deep admiration of No Sheeples Here, and the Sweater Puppy Rule 5 Contest. The responsible parties have been sacked. That is all. Rule 5 Sunday is yet another foray into loveliness with a light touch. The Pirate’s Cove, the granddaddy of Rule […]

Who Instapundit Is Linking Today

Instead of us, that is. This used to be a semi-regular feature Back In The Day, and this looks like as good a time as any to revive it, because today is Rule 5 Sunday and Professor Glenn Reynolds is linking video of a hot chick talking to an Objectivist. NTTAWWT. We’ll need to ask the […]

‘Pardon While I Adjust My Rose Colored Glasses’

by Smitty (h/t Brandon Kiser on Twitter) As mooched from here. Someone needs to communicate to Robert Gibbs that the Administration in general, and he in particular, have zero credibility. Do they know this, and slog forward anyway, or are they simply incapable of grasping it? The answer probably doesn’t matter.

If the Tea Party Had Started With 40 People at Panera in West Palm Beach . . .

. . . I’m pretty sure we never would have heard the end of the media guffawing. And I’m damn sure the Palm Beach Post never could have been bothered to notice. The Post is owned by degenerate heirs of the Cox family, who have notoriously plundered and ruined the Atlanta papers. Those treacherous elitist bastards did all they could […]

Seinfeld on SNL

by Smitty (h/t Alan Colmes) Seinfeld was great in the SNL cameo. The topic, thrashing Massa, was not itself terribly novel, but the delivery was smooth: Which gives me an idea to push to PJTV . . .

‘Does All of This Activism Matter?’

When I saw this linked by Dan Riehl, I was frankly stunned that an impressive turnout for a rally in St. Paul inspired Powerline’s John Hinderaker to suggest citizens protesting against ObamaCare “won’t stop the Democrats from doing whatever they have to do to pass a government takeover bill.” Whiskey Tango Foxtrot? Mr. Hinderaker: No coach ever went into the locker room […]
