Got Your Back, Ali Akbar

Maybe you don’t know Ali Akbar, but he is one of the most effective New Media operatives in the conservative movement. Along with Melissa Clouthier, Ali was a driving force behind Blog Bash. Love him, hate him, it doesn’t matter. The guy makes things happen, and when there’s a fight online, you want him on […]

SooperMexican: Dana Milbank Apologist?

by Smitty Did I type apologist? I meant adversary. First day, new fingers.

I had blogged the SSPICE conference call a couple of weeks back, to a chorus of crickets. While I think that the Social […]

Gunny Ermey Triggers The Vote

by Smitty The Second Amendment, and, by extension, Western Civilization, is at stake: Trigger the Vote did a fine job here. Things have gone a long way toward the gutter when one actually notices the two kids swapping spit in the video are heterosexual. One is tempted to say ‘viva temptation’ at the sight of […]

Who Wants to See Tina Korbe’s Thighs?

The title of this post is not a hypothetical question, because last week the aforesaid Miss Korbe joined her Hot Air colleague Ed Morrissey for a video interview with Rick Santorum, which I didn’t see until somebody brought it to my attention yesterday: Our keen-eyed readers will note that at the 0:28 mark of the […]
