The Other McCain

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

You Go, Nancy!

by Smitty It takes a special kind of chutzpah to encourage people to do things that are not in their best interests. The Lonely Conservative points to the LiarSpeaker of the House, encouraging her doomed troops to go backing into their campaigns at high speed in a Ford Pinto with a full tank, singing the […]

Thanks, Buffett

by Smitty After I go to all that trouble defending you, you reveal yourself a total sycophant. What’s next, a Charlie Crist endorsement? The weather is here. Wish you were credible. Aside: I think I was supposed to eat some crow over Chuck DeVore’s non-triumph in the California primary. You may all point at me […]

Nice Work, No Sheeples!

by Smitty Thomas Sowell knows a great deal, but Real Clear Politics should retain No Sheeples Here for that crucial graphic. The Republicans do resemble a Charlie Boehner figure, tricked again and again by Lucy van Pelosi.

The Lockerbie Punchline

by Smitty The blogosphere has been reacting to the news that Abdelbaset Ali Mohmed Al Megrahi, the Lockerbie bomber, could survive another couple of decades.
