The Other McCain

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

Divisive

by Smitty The Pledge of Allegiance is a simple, yet ironic litmus test in contemporary America. Protein Wisdom notes that the Pledge, designed to bring Americans together, is divisive. And who is rejecting this pledge? Is it those who want to preserve liberty? Why, no. No, it’s not. The people rejecting the Pledge are those […]

Dubious Quote Of The Day

by Smitty From The Moderate BlatherVoice, emphasis mine: Well [Representative Bachmann]’s right — the media is always looking for a cat fight, it’s tabloid journalism as its finest. But she is only half right — the real power brokers of the Republican party want a Bachmann-Palin cat fight to split the crazy vote and pave […]

Perry Is A Bad Man Because He Saw What Happened To Palin And Had A Delay Put On Release Of Travel Vouchers. Bad Man!

by Smitty What have we learned since 2008, if not that the former courts of justice have been reduced to an ideological battleground? Unexpectedly, Rick Perry, kicking around a Presidential run, wants to express himself politically without having his travel used as a weapon against him. Many of the trips are unrelated to state business […]

Dear Stacy

by Smitty Please make sure no one finds out I was born in Oregon. It would be shameful for anyone to know that the state where I was born has been completely sodomized by a crop of un-American degenerates. Yes. California. I blame expat granola-heads for destroying my home state’s moral fiber. Stacy, I know […]

‘Marriage’ Is A Complete Concept

by Smitty Prefixing ‘marriage’ in any way adds no meaning to its proper, timeless understanding. Frank J cogently argues “The Arguements For Gay Marriage Are Incoherent“. Given that one finds the behavior of others is often incoherent, I like his point #2: Given that marriage is a religious institution that the government participates in, there […]

Quit Picking On Bono!

by Smitty (h/t Insty) This insistance that Bono and U2 are somehow bad just because they are dodging Irish taxes on their music publishing is way offbase. Points to remember about about Holy Progress: Hypocrisy is supposed to be an art form. Dodging taxes is a spiritual activity that should be undertaken from bloody Monday […]

God Bless The Lazy Farmer

by Smitty This post is the blogospheric equivalent of Norman Rockwell. Totally needed that. The simple photo of a truckload of honest work really made my day.

Thank’ee, Bernanke

by Smitty It looks like ‘action’ now means ‘value’: The Fed would be “prepared to take additional action, obviously, if conditions warranted,” including the purchase of more Treasury securities, Bernanke said yesterday after U.S. central bankers met in Washington. <shatner_voice> Farce… the Financial Frontier. These are the voyages of the Federal Reserve. Its five-score-year mission: […]
