From the Undeceived to the Rube: My Second Notice of Your Previous Insult

It’s come to this: Not content to insult our intelligence by claiming that her vote for Obama in 2008 was a “rational choice,” now Ann Althouse has sown discord between Smitty and me, distracting me from important issues — there has been another royal upskirt incident that regular readers would normally expect me to cover in comprehensive detail […]

Re-Explaining the Amazon Thing (Or, Is Your Husband Reading The Right Blog?)

When I’d mentioned earlier that someone bought a $199.99 piece of jewelry via my Amazon Associates link — thereby earning me an $8 commission — some of the commenters seemed not to understand how it works.

Democrats to America: ‘Sucks to Be You!’

“Did you get an 8% salary increase this year? I don’t think I know anyone who did. Then again, I don’t know anyone who works for President Obama. They have it really good, even better than they had it last year . . .”

Use a Pistol, and They Call It ‘Robbery.’ Use a Labor Union? That’s ‘Fairness.’

“This is the month the state of Maryland, on behalf of the public sector union known as AFSCME, steals somewhere in the area of $400 from my yearly salary in order to enrich the union.” — Jimmie Bise Jr., “How Maryland Will Rob Me to Enrich Union Fat Cats”
