The Other McCain

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

They Told Me If I Voted For McCain, Volunteerism Would Count For Little… And They Were Right!

by Smitty Even the Huffington Post is wandering off the reservation on the cleanup efforts: BP PLC has turned away Gunnoe and other would-be volunteers because the oil giant is using only paid and trained workers to clean up the mess caused by its oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico. Instead, the retired Air […]

I Am No Matchmaker

by Smitty However, with no fear of exceeding the realm of good taste, I would like to recommend that Kesha Rogers and Alvin Greene should do lunch. Kesha can help Alvin get something more substantial than, you know, Wikipedia, going for the campaign. It’s going to be a tough slog, going after Ol’ Julep DeMint, […]

Sandy Goodman Thinks The BP Squeeze Was Not ‘Fascism-Fascism’

by Smitty Sandy Goodman at the Puffington Host generates a truly useful idiocy in attacking another useful idiot, David Brooks, for his PBS NewsHour appearance Friday night.

Ten Buck Fridays

by Smitty (via Mind Numbed Robot) In the end, the votes cast for the election are what matter. However, time, effort, and money have an impact. The money is important, particularly early. So the Ten Buck Fridays is a wonderful way to express political will in a fashion that shall no doubt bring tears of […]

Rule 5 Sunday

by Smitty Update: Rule 5 salutes Manute Bol, and thanks Atlas Shrugs, again, for education. The reward for your patience, as I was seeing the family and judging the iOwnTheWorld contest last weekend, is a double dose of Rule 5 goodness. Starting From The Top
