Obama: If You Think I Screwed Up On
the BP Disaster, You’re Just Ignorant

He went to Columbia University and Harvard Law, which means he’s umpteen zillion times smarter than you are: “Those who think that we were either slow in our responses or lacked urgency don’t know the facts. This has been our highest priority since this crisis occurred,” Obama said during a rare news conference in the […]

Los Angeles Republican Party Wins Lawsuit Against Ron Paul Supporters

Taking over a county-level Republican Party isn’t really that hard. In most places, if you’ve got a core group of five or six smart organizer/activists who really know what they’re doing, you can oust the incumbent party leadership within a year. Since 2008, supporters of Ron Paul have done this in many counties, and there are a […]

The Classic Liberal Is a Good Blog

Just switched the FMJRA Award to The Classic Liberal, which is a good excuse for a brief Rule 2 seminar. Earlier today, I got an e-mail from a journalist who was doing a story about how the Dale Petersen video went “viral.” The reporter asked me why I called out Gawker for failing to give me a […]

VIDEO: Carolina Sex God in TV Interview

Always reluctant to speak to the media about his shagadelic mojo, Will Folks gives an interview to WCBD-TV: He rehashes the “protect my family” excuse, which has never made any sense at all. How would a media revelation of an affair be more hurtful to Folks’ family than his self-exposure? He reminds me of the […]

Gresham Barrett, who’s running for governor of South Carolina, who were reportedly pushing the rumor about Nikki Haley. Why would Barrett’s people seize on that sleaze? Because Haley is kicking […]

Why We Love Ann Coulter

Because she’s funny: Watching TV this week, at first I thought Republican Senate nominee Rand Paul had flown a commercial jet into the World Trade Center. But then it turned out that he had only said there ought to be discussion about whether federal civil rights laws should be applied to private businesses. This allowed […]

Not Good News for James O’Keefe

A guilty plea: The four defendants who were arrested in January in Sen. Mary Landrieu’s office in the Hale Boggs federal complex in New Orleans pleaded guilty Wednesday morning in federal court to entering real property belonging to the United States under false pretenses. Magistrate Judge Daniel Knowles III sentenced Stan Dai, Joseph Basel and […]

Rule 6: Don’t Be a Complete Douchebag

Thanks to the commenter on the previous post who said that the exploits of Will Folks should inspire an addendum to “How to Get a Million Hits On Your Blog.” There is a line between ordinary human fallibility — sometime you hit the “publish” button and immediately regret it — and 100% douchebaggery. Will Folks […]
