Obama: An Authentic Phony

Back during the 2008 GOP primary campaign — most of which actually happened in 2007 — I wasn’t yet an independent blogger, but was “a man under authority” at The Washington Times. Working on the news side of the operation, the public expression of my opinions was streng verboten, which of course didn’t mean I […]

$105,000 Worth of Champagne

What else would you expect to drink when you attend a fundraiser for the Man Who Stopped the Rise of the Oceans? President Barack Obama attended a fundraiser at Jay-Z’s 40/40 Club in Manhattan that featured a champagne tower of 350 bottles worth $105,000 — more than twice the median household income of an American family. […]

Please, Get Your Vagina Off My TV!

You know the ads I’m talking about: Lawyers seeking clients for a class-action lawsuit involving . . . um, gynecological problems: Ladies: If you’ve had a “vaginal mesh/sling implant,” please call that law firm and tell them to get those horrible ads off TV. — Robert Stacy McCain (@rsmccain) September 19, 2012 “Vaginal mesh implant” […]

My Ill-Gotten Gains

“How he affords his Italian suits and his diamond-studded walking stick, his Ferraris, the enormous gems that glitter on his fingers, or the caviar, I will never know. Neither is it any of my business. I will never forget motoring up the cedar-lined drive to his manse overlooking the Shenandoah, and wondering how he could […]

Why Liberals Hate You

Rare is the day when I have cause to express gratitude to Matt Yglesias, but his expression of the statist view could not be clearer:   The concept of “redistribution” falsely implies that the existence of property is prior to the existence of the state. #mythofownership — Matt Yglesias (@mattyglesias) September 18, 2012   Could […]

E-Mail From Bert, the Samoan Lawyer

Commenting on some recent events, and quite interesting: How many of the purported Republicans and/or conservatives that have been pronouncing Romney a sure loser in the last three weeks are among those that, during the primaries, said the GOP had to nominate him because he was the only one who could win? Of those, how […]

A Note on Bill Kristol’s
Arrogant and Stupid Blog Post

In general, the whooping and hollering over a GOP presidential candidate’s gaffe is done by Democrats. Also David Brooks and David Frum. So it was rather shocking to see Bill Kristol come out with a blog post using the phrase “stupid and arrogant” to describe Romney’s remarks. Bill Kristol calls Romney ‘arrogant and stupid’? weeklystandard.com/blogs/note-rom… Kinda not […]

On the Romney Video: ‘The Q&A Didn’t Turn Out as Well as He Had Hoped’

Let’s begin by nominating Jimmie Bise Jr. for the Pulitzer Prize for Humorous Understatement. That there’s funny, I don’t care who you are. Meanwhile, in the Real 1% — the pro-Obama media — the latest furor is over a second clip from the same secret (and possibly illegally recorded) video in which Romney criticizes talk of Mideast […]
