I Can’t Understand Why Everyone Hates The New Aristocracy

by Smitty Rush Limbaugh reviews the skewering given to Chelsea Clinton over a debut that was to Katie Couric what #OccupyResoluteDesk is to Jimmy Carter. Now she’s 31 years old. She is a statist-in-training. She’s working on her 14th college degree. It’s time to get serious about life now. Her future as a statist will […]

Burning Mosques, Rabbi Hammerman?

by Smitty via Ace I realize this is hyperbole, sut still: If Tebow wins the Super Bowl, against all odds, it will buoy his faithful, and emboldened faithful can do insane things, like burning mosques, bashing gays and indiscriminately banishing immigrants.

Conflation

by Smitty Daily Pundit keys in on a sentence from Stacy’s post: He loves to talk about infrastructure — “investments in road and bridges” — as if that was the majority of the what he’s spending money on, when in fact, infrastructure projects were less than 5% of the stimulus bill.

What Does ‘Best Days Are Behind’ Mean?
