If The Strategy Was Always Propaganda, Why Is A Charging Instrument That Sounds Like The Squawk Of A Sexually Aroused Gas Mask A Surprise?

by Smitty Allahpundit is confused, probably because he’s screwing up and attempting rational analysis of a Lefty ploy again: I don’t understand Corey’s strategy in charging him with murder two. Maybe she thinks Zimmerman will plead to a lesser charge, but if it’s anything less than manslaughter she’s going to take tremendous heat for having […]

Warning: Brain-Bleach Shortage!

Inadvertantly caused by Ed Morrissey: NOW President Terry O’Neill ignores the First Rule of Holes (stop digging!) and provides another cycle for Republicans to defend Ann Romney and stay-at-home moms. Instead of leaving bad enough alone, O’Neill appeared on Ed Schultz’ MSNBC show last night and attempted to rewrite Hilary Rosen’s faceplant . . . […]

The woman was reportedly upset and was taken to a local hospital for a mental evaluation. Judging from available photos, the […]

If An Academic Says It, That Makes It OK

by Smitty Check out this picture of the World’s Youngest Blogger a year ago: Via Breitbart: Two medical ethicists connected to Oxford University are arguing in Oxford’s Journal of Medical Ethics that babies have no moral status, and can be killed because they are only “potential persons” rather than “actual persons.” They also argue that […]

Maslow And The Conversation On Race

by Smitty I’ve been busier than a fringe candidate trying to figure out how to stay in the Presidential race lately, and blogging has suffered.
