In Which I Confess To Accepting Blogger Payola

by Smitty I’ve bared my wallet on Twitter: It’s true. I’m a sellout. I can only hope to achieve a sufficient depth of pathos to get a job offer after the November election blows out half of DC. Then we’ll see who is begging for vanilla pudding money, you pathetic little CRAFT POST LINKERS!!! Update: […]

Bumped: Philanthropic Outlets

by Smitty As the son of a son of a sailor, I cannot fail to link Dan Riehl’s USS Ranger post. It looks like they’re mooring her on the Columbia River, East of Portland, AFAICT. The store link features a vampire novel for that goth in your life. I opted for PayPal. Switching from the […]

‘We May Be Incompetent, But We Are
All You Have Got’ Is An Increasingly Feckless Argument

by Smitty (h/t Insty) Conglomerate Blog has a doom-tastic post about how New Jersey is being sued by the SEC for creating a situation where bond investors were not provided adequate information to evaluate the state’s ability to fund the pensions or assess their impact on the state’s financial condition. How can this be a […]

Unsure About Barney Frank’s Conversion

by Smitty Conservative Girl puts a religious spin on Frank’s awakening, but let’s not overplay this quotation: “I hope by next year we’ll have abolished Fannie and Freddie,….it was a great mistake to push lower-income people into housing they couldn’t afford and couldn’t really handle once they had it….I had been too sanguine about Fannie […]

That Long Roman Catholic Memory

by Smitty Your attention is drawn to Lisa Graas, over in News Reel Blog, who has a lengthy post concerning Roman Catholic records of that soft, fuzzy, warm Cordoba period in Spanish history currently peddled by GZM proponents: Is the imam telling the truth? Catholic history indicates a different picture. According to our records, things […]

A Disturbance In The Farce

by Smitty How can RSM be*: while having sprung from origins this humble? Discuss. *It must be said that, while I have remorselessly criticized Stacy’s Luddite non-approach to technology adoption, comparing his methodology to cuniform work on a clay tablet with a reed stylus 5,000 years ago (before that new-fangled papyrus came in), while not […]

T-Mac On Miller

by Smitty Thad McCotter on Dennis Miller’s radio show. Six minutes on GZM. Thoughtful, dispassionate, sprinkled with good humor. Five minutes on offense against Pelosi & crew, with a swipe against Jimmy Carter. Nothing earth shattering, but I’m a T-Mac fan, so there. They take a question in the end, and McCotter exits by asking […]

Rule 5 Sunday

by Smitty The week in gorgeousness was dominated by Rima, who, with full political incorrectness, prefers bikinis to burkhas and non-confrontational locations for cultural reconciliation. Also politically incorrect: Jennifer Aniston, who was hoisted on her own ‘retard’. While Rule 5 does not support breaches of decorum, a consultation with Janet Jackson, a private piercing revelation, […]
