CWCID For NYT From AllahPundit?

by Smitty The NYT engaged in respectable journalism and hammered Richard Blumenthal, the Connecticut AG, for attempting to assing himself off as having served in Vietnam. AllahPundit updates his post to say: Credit where credit is due: No doubt it pained the NYT to drop a bomb on one of the few surefire Democratic winners […]

BHO Can’t Nationalize The Oil Companies

by Smitty Sure, it seems like nationalizing the oil companies is the next logical thing, but there remains a pressing question: who would he next demonize? Software hasn’t been demonized yet. While the propaganda value of demonizing an outfit with shallow pockets (though not as shallow as this blog) makes it unfit for other than […]

Is It OK For Virginia To Be Represented By Men Who Went To Work Dressed Like This?

by Smitty (h/t At The Point Of A Gun) Why, yes; yes, it is. I, for one, think we could balance the budget by having Scott Taylor on the panel at a Congressional hearing giving Eric Holder a Full Kinison, i.e. “Islamic Extremism: say it! SAY IT!“ and selling tickets. Maybe not, but it makes […]

National Funk Congress Targets Academia

by Smitty The Huffington Post has the scoop on the Atomic Dog and the sudden desire to have an online University of Funk. Political endeavors have provided insufficient entertainment, apparently. For the hygenically challenged, this has nothing to do with extended time periods between showers. Rather, something like this:

Rule 5 Sunday

by Smitty Rule 5 Sunday arrives, somewhat tardy, as I was off galavanting. But this is not why you read this post, in any case. Lena Horne has passed. Frazetta, too, with fewer tributes. Ed Driscoll led off the remembrance. Another Black Conservative was next, with the first “Stormy Weather” embed. Paco Enterprises, sans surprises, […]

Foppish Muffinboy Jeered for Ridiculous Asshattery

by Smitty Uncle Jimbo salutes Eric Holder, for ‘steamroller’ values of ‘salute’. To everything there is a season, and Holder’s despicable performance before congress merits the flogging delivered, in my estimation. Also, the blogroll has seen a massive update, adding a dozen or so blogs that had been shamefully absent. Sorry. Fishersville Mike thinks that […]

Self-Portrait Of A Blog Writing Its
Own Post

by Smitty In the attempt to be cool like the Instapundit, I was off to see the vampire today for my octofortnightly* donation on the apherisis machine. The Inspiron Mini proves its worth yet again. With the 6-cell battery pack, it represents a great tradeoff between form factor, horsepower, and endurance. The trackpad exhibits some […]

Following Up On Thoughtful Remarks From wallamaarif

by Smitty Commenter wallamaarif offers comments #17 and #20 on Get Stuffed, Alan Colmes that merit examination. Before delving into details, let’s note that the overwhelming bulk of human history, and, indeed, the contemporary situation, has featured unrepresentative regimes. For example, the 2007 Treaty of Lisbon does a fine job of kicking European representative democracy […]
