When Blog Wars Go Bad
Frequent commenter T.R. sent me this item: Lehigh Valley blogger Bernie O’Hare is making good on a promise to sue a woman who sought a restraining order against him last week. O’Hare filed a defamation suit against Tricia Mezzacappa, of West Easton, in Northampton County Court on Monday afternoon. He is seeking more than $50,000 […]
At Least Daily Pundit Gets It
by Smitty Quick shaves my point on racism a little more finely. I’m OK with that: Nobody actually cares about racism in America. As compared to much of the world, racism simply isn’t a major factor here. Cultural problems based on race and ethnicity do exist, but racism itself is not a real problem in […]
Warning: No Betas Need Apply
At CPAC 2012, Gabby and Christine were digging the manly men. Is Gabby Hoffman the world’s hottest young blogger, or what? Her essay on manliness was not only linked here, but was also linked in the AOSHQ Overnight Thread and even got the coveted Instalanche. Bloggers young and old must envy such precocious success. How many college […]

Instapundit points to the WaPoo, where Sheila Bair is on about loaning $10 Million to everybody as a means of ‘fixing’ income inequality. Sweet, sweet fascism: taking your Creator-granted liberty, packaging it, and returning it […]
Derbyshire, Goldstein and Lowry
The Bonfire of the Derbyshire has burnt itself out, although some latecomers are still poking around in the ashes. Liberals have reassured themselves of their moral superiority. Rich Lowry has reassured himself of his own editorial adequacy. And all is right with the world. Except of course, it’s not really. The wheels keep turning, and […]
John Hawkins Interviews Herman Cain
Herman Cain sees the bright side of his recent experiences: At the colleges and the universities, it’s standing room only in these auditoriums with these college students which is very, very inspiring — and they are paying attention. They have awakened to the hypocrisy of this administration. But I plan to continue to stay focused on […]
Stephen Green’s Hair Of The Dog
by Smitty George Will owns it at the outset, but the closing Lincoln bit was a nice touch:
