The Other McCain

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

Noah Berlatsky, Who Seems to Be OK With Pedophiles, Sure Does Hate Republicans

In case you wondered whatever happened to this particular scumbag — who, just a few years ago, was busy defending pedophiles as “MAPs” (minor-attracted persons) — he seems now to have latched onto his buddy Aaron Rupar’s blog Public Notice, where today he declared: “Republicans have used the crisis [in Israel] to indulge in monstrously […]

Politics Is a Team Sport

Saturday evening on The Other Podcast, I found myself ranting furiously about the idiots who decided that what the conservative movement needed was for eight House Republicans to join the Democrats and vote the GOP Speaker out of office. It prompted me to invoke Casey Stengel who, frustrated by the ineptitude of the 1962 Mets, […]

Israel and ‘The Godfather’

“Barzini is dead. So is Phillip Tattaglia. Moe Greene. Stracci. Cuneo. Today I settled all family business, so don’t tell me that you’re innocent.

She reminds me of a Johnny Rivers lyric: Beware of pretty faces that you find. A pretty face can hide an evil mind. Unfortunately, guys are always […]

Update From the Dept. of Ironic Crime

Saturday we shared the tale of a young woman who made the fatal choice of Baltimore as an ideal place for “building a deeply inclusive culture.” Since then, there seems to have been a rash of such ironic crimes. Irony is not to be confused with comedy, of course, and we would not want people […]

A Self-Inflicted Disaster as Republicans Vote to Boot Kevin McCarthy as Speaker

Perhaps some of my readers are not sad to see Kevin McCarthy voted out as Speaker of the House. And I’m here to tell you, you’re wrong.
