It’s Time To Call The Bluff On Progressivism

by Smitty Megan McArdle offers an outstanding play-by-play of the dust-up between Wisconsin’s Wonkish Wunderkind and Krugman. Krugman is “that fool on television getting payed to play the fool”, and we all get that, including Krugman. The economic models are slightly better than global warming models, I can opine with as much legitimacy as anyone […]

HOPA You Understand. . .

by Smitty (h/t email from Red State Eclectic) No matter how clear cut your case for a righteous tell-off, you’re still advised to eschew such. Why? Unless the young lady in the picture series is going to start her own business, she’d better clearly articulate at the next interview that she’s not into recreational insubordination. […]

Stunning

by Smitty Last week’s National Press Club press conference by awesome conservatives who happen to be black was all over the blogs. Read the follow up, though. The press conference revealed an extraordinary truth. My brother who is conservative brought my 83-year-old dad, who’s a staunch Obama supporter, to the press conference. My dad admitted […]

HR1586: ‘Legislate In Haste, Amend At Leisure’ Now Making Oscar Wilde
Look Serious

At the posted $0.50 a glass, the unfortunate kid has to give the first […]

Great Moments In Inattention To Detail

by Smitty Smitty:  Stacy, look! We’re number 3 on Wikio!   Stacy: Smittiot! That’s not a Roman numeral! Thanks to our readers, commenters, and fellow patriots. We’d love to do Technorati, too, but somehow our hosting provider doesn’t let our robots.txt file do the right thing.

Rule 5 Sunday

by Smitty Rule 5 Sunday dawns again. We look in the Rule 5 label and see what sort of delights await. Christina Hendricks pictures offered by frequent commenter Joe are a sizzling place to start. The Last Tradition, speaking of sizzling, has some pork- and Rule 5-drenched ideas for what to do if the Bloomberg […]

Beyond Passing Thoughts. . .

by Smitty Virginia Virtucon notes: David Jones of the UK Daily Mail wrote an article that shows how the combination of Mother Nature’s resiliency and BP’s strong clean-up efforts have almost completely mitigated what the White House, the mainstream media, and the environmental lobby would have you believe to be a horrible, generations-lasting disaster of […]
