Here’s Why We Want To Differentiate Between Faith And Politics

by Smitty NewsBusters has a post on Rev. Soong-Chan Rah in the Chicago Tribune. For some background on where I’m coming from, see my last August post, the main point of which was that morality is not strictly equal to ethics. That is, there are ethical questions, ethical/moral questions, and moral questions.

Isn’t VA’s Outgoing Senator Enough Of A Progressive Tool?

by Smitty Legal Insurrection posts a clip of Tim “I did not ride Mark Warner’s coattails” Kaine, who would like to replace Sen. Jim “Yeah, I got elected on ‘macaca’” Webb as the junior Senator from VA. The bandwidth and the interest to deal with this video just ain’t there. I won’t even embed it. […]

In Defense of Conor Friedersdorf

by Smitty Let the Tweet tell the tale of his rebuttal of Stacy McCain: That Conor: His nouns are bold, his verbs uncanny. Admit he’s the king of prose, or he’ll whip your fanny!  At least Conor is using TweetDeck. Stacy. Now, since the lone novembered one (for you phonetic alphabet junkies) thinks that he’s […]

Isn’t It Cute When Progressives Pause From Raping The Poor Long Enough To Express Concern About Them?

Arguments To Spike The Heart Of The Entitlement Vampire

by Smitty The mighty Veronique de Rugy posts about some horrid DCCC work against Ryan, and ends with: Now, how can we make people understand that entitlement programs are not an entitlement? How do we reach out to them?  Here are a few thoughts of mine: The Math: they are a ponzi scheme. The demographics […]

If Your Faith Is Feeling Deflated

by Smitty A lot of the budget news from places like CA, WI, IL, &c has been really bad of late. Texas offers a good palate cleanser, via the Tatler: Tonight’s final vote on House Bill 1 tells us House leaders got the message taxpayers have been sending: live within our means! But taxpayers must […]

T-Paw: It’s Going To Take A New Pres.

by Smitty (h/t Tatler) If the early returns on Althouse’s poll hold steady, people are ready to vote against The WhiOne. The contrast couldn’t be much more stark between BHO and T-Paw. Are we ready for somebody with competence, experience and human warmth, without so much egomania? I’m willing to say yes. Tim Pawlenty 2012 […]
