BARNEY FRANK WILL RETIRE UPDATES: ‘Corrupt Creature of Washington Who Helped Usher in the Great Recession’; Maxine Waters to Become Top Dem on Banking Committee
by Smitty Via Stacy’s close friend Tabitha Hale and Weasel Zippers, you know something is headed in the right direction when those that are utterly wrong start heading for the exit.

Hoffman at The College Conservative Misses the Genius of Meghan McCain
by Smitty And by misses I mean thoroughly rejects (emphasis original): Moreover, the “brilliant” Meghan McCain — daughter of “Lord of the TARP” John McCain — has taken every opportunity to deride conservative women and social issues. McCain said, “I consider myself a progressive Republican. I am liberal on social issues. And I think that […]
Exploring ‘Explaining Postmodernism’ By Stephen R. C. Hicks
by Smitty Explaining Postmodernism is among the better books I have read in some time. Hicks, in a concise, lucid way, serves PoMo’s historical development since the Enlightenment.

Progressivism At Work: Put States In A Bad Way, Blame States For Being There
by Smitty Come on, Gandleman: I need to preface this post by saying that I am a HUGE fan of Texas. I love visiting Texas. I love Texans. And I think too many Texans have been burned by the false stereotype of the exaggerating, bloviating Texas politician in a state that has many fine elected […]

by Smitty Slashdot reports: About 200 customers of the Central Maine Power Company recently noticed something odd after the utility installed smart meters in their homes: household electronics, including wireless devices, stopped working, or behaved erratically.
