Touché

by Smitty Now and then, one gets trashed so hard that the best course of action is to join the audience in admiration of a good trashing: When did Smitty turn into a Progressive? He seems to claim charisma is a zero sum game. He claims the charismatically rich Paul Ryan got that way from […]

Is Reboot Congress Senator Dick Lugar’s Biggest Booster?

by Smitty I’m looking at this rack of links from Reboot Congress, and I’m thinking: wow, DSM digs him some Lugar about as much as I enjoy cheering on ‘Gentleman’ Jim Moran, which is to say, not at all: Dick Lugar: Living Large in New York City Dick Lugar Gambles Big on Phonebanks Dick Lugar […]

I Am Not Consumed With Jealousy!

Everybody Keeps Getting a Busy Signal at the Blogger Burnout Hotline Nowadays

Professor William Jacobson laments Don Surber’s recent decision to quit blogging. It is probably just a coincidence that Don, one of the most valuable members of the conservative blogosphere since 2005, was never invited to speak at BlogCon. Instapundit grimly holds on. UPDATE: Pat Austin is also grimly hanging on in Shreveport. She offers to chat over […]
