The Left Is Unaware Of Its Tribalism?

by Smitty Gallagher at The American Interest: Indeed, one of the chief causes behind the “Peak Left” moment that Walter Russell Mead addressed recently is leftist intellectuals’ inability to recognize that they, too, are a tribe. Somewhere around the ObamaCare cramdown, I started toying with the theory that the Left (at least its Godless Commie […]

Dave Barry Rocks

by Smitty Another righteous outing from the great humorist: DECEMBER … President Obama, moving to fill the Cabinet vacancy created by the resignation of Chuck Hagel, announces — in what is seen as a major shift in military policy — that his new Secretary of Defense will be Chuck Norris. The nomination is swiftly approved […]

Convention Of States: ’15 Surprise Story?

by Smitty Mark Levin, radio talking head: On Thursday, December 4, the Convention of States Project sponsored the breakfast session at the American Legislative Exchange Council (ALEC) meeting in Washington, D.C. Convention of States Project legal board member, nationally syndicated radio talk show host, and Constitutional expert, Mark Levin, spoke on behalf of Article V […]

Ah, So: Normalize Relations With Cuba, Import A Few Legions Of Doctors

by Smitty Over at Hot Air, Morrissey points out what a despicable [redacted] liar Harry Reid is/was during ObamaCare’s quest for stillbirth: The “doc fix” dodge had been going on for some time, but Reid took it to a new level in order to fool the CBO into scoring ObamaCare as deficit-neutral.

Of those so endorsed, an incredible 20 were elected – contrasted with, for example, Hillary […]

No, The Homo Bureaucratus Infestation Is Not A Representative Sample

by Smitty USA Today is closer to being part of the problem than part of the solution: Yet to look around the USA is to see fear and anxiety. If you didn’t know better, you’d think this was a nation of wimps. Take, for instance, the response to the Ebola outbreak. Millions of people worked […]

Set Aside All Traditional Modes Of Argument, And The Left Does Make Sense

Military Reform: A Key @GOP 2016 Issue

by Smitty I left Active Duty, inter alia, because I was disgusted by seeing uniformed officers held to a higher standard of conduct than their Commander-in-Chief, Monica Lewinsky’s ex-boyfriend.
