Rule 5 Sunday

by Smitty I normally like to post Rule 5 Sunday a bit earlier, but I was out of town Friday/Saturday, and it takes a while to cruise the cache. Particularly when there has been so much wonderful posting of late. We pick up with American Power and a Karen Alloy clip. Not to mention an […]

Flaky Markup: Javelins Revealing Animosity?

by Smitty So, if there are no accidents in Chicago politics, are the peek-a-boo revelations in the Blagojevich investigation pointing at the POTUS An unprecedented screw-up of beyond ‘blame Bush’ badness? A means of controlling the news cycle away, a re-directing attention away from even stupider activities? An indication that internal discipline is rapidly eroding […]

A Suggestion Of Tension Concerning
The Good Representative Waxman

by Smitty Valley of the Shadow continues the fight for blogospheric excellence, emphasis mine: Next week I will be at the 30th Congressional District Republican debate. I know the candidates, and I will blog about it afterword. If there are 5 (yes FIVE!) candidates who think Rep. Waxman is vulnerable, then look in your city […]

Alex Spillius: How Many Tea Parties Have You Attended?

Scott Adams Reveals
The Essence Of Progressivism

by Smitty Who owns the definitions, indeed, owns much: The flip side of this coin is that when the audience isn’t buying your Bacon Sandwich, the lack of factual backup can make things challenging.

Dick Cheney Tidbits

by Smitty The Cheney endorsement of Marco Rubio is heartening. Maybe the former VP can take a few more of the progressive GOP old guard hunting, or something. Via Alan Colmes, we also have word of an appearance on Dennis Miller’s radio show, where Cheney recalled a famous encounter with Senator Leahy: A chance meeting […]

Craven-ness Central: Those Who Hate You Laugh At You, Without Humor

by Smitty Via HotAir comes the news that the dhimmitude is worse than it superficially appears: We delivered our version of the show to Comedy Central and they made a determination to alter the episode. It wasn’t some meta-joke on our part. Comedy Central added the bleeps. In fact, Kyle’s customary final speech was about […]

Social Security Is Popular?

by Smitty (h/t Insty) Legal hero Randy Barnett has a couple of clips discussing ObamaCare’s Constitutionality. He makes the claim that Social Security is popular at the end of the second clip. With whom? Lots of people are cigarette smokers, and I submit that the godforsaken Ponzi scheme that is Social Security is popular, relatively […]
