The Other McCain

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

“Driving That Bain / High On Rogaine
/ Timmy Kaine You’d Better
/ Watch Your Speed”

by Smitty Virginia Right points to Open Secrets, where, nestled cosily amongst the usual suspects for a Democrat, we see Bain Capital supporting former governor Timmy Kaine in his bid to replace Jim “Browser” Webb in the Senate. “Just how Conservative is Mitt Romney?” asks Virginia Right. The CPAC propaganda arrived today, and I see […]

Election Day Tea Party Wants To Abuse Debbie Wasserman-Schultz

by Smitty It really isn’t fair to debate Ms. Wasserman Schultz on a topic of which she has no knowledge: “Today, we are challenging Ms. Wasserman Schultz to a debate on the Constitution,” said Michael Patrick Leahy, co-coordinator of Election Day Tea Party. “We think the country is ready for direct and civil discourse on […]

Are The Taiwanese Animators Tantamount To Rosie O’Donnell In The Steel Bikini And Winged Helm?

by Smitty The Sisyphus imagery for Ron Paul really makes this one:I, for one, disagree. How many actual delegates have been committed? If Tea Partiers want to roll over for Mitt, he can certainly coast from here. However, keep in mind that neither Mitt nor these animators write the history in isolation. It wasn’t over […]

Affirmative Action Is White Collar Welfare

by Smitty I don’t see the contradiction in saying that we will not discriminate, in a negative sense, while wanting the most qualified employees available, in the positive sense. These are ideas applied on a per-individual basis. Those ideas are applied in series, and the quota is far more important. Things go pear-shaped when companies […]

Then I was in the military, where, while voting is a big deal, partisanship is like evangelizing: a big no-no. Which is good. The fact that the military swears fealty […]

Is Torie Bosch Really An Idiot?

by Smitty Torie Bosch has deliberately, diabolically misconstrued Chris Christie, and Ann Althouse, unexpectedly, seems to want to take Bosch seriously, leading to much cognitive dissonance: But it’s not enough here to say Bosch is an idiot or that Bosch’s idiocy exemplifies the pathetic present-day feminist web-writers and impugns the entire enterprise of feminism — […]

Timmy Kaine, You’ve Got Less Of A Prayer Than An Atheist Convention

by Smitty I strongly urge you to follow the lead of the smartest Democrat going, Jim Webb, and just don’t bother showing up in November. Your purple state Virginia fantasy is in for serious shredding. But if come you must, bring Manbearpig to campaign for you, like he did for Jim Moran. That was at […]

Fun Gerbils

by Smitty Roxanne gets me thinking with this one: Now, I suspect that the retort is “That’s not what I meant by fungible,” but that leads us to the question: in what way are men fungible with each other but not with women? Can we really not take a male scientist and replace him with […]
