NY-26 Update: Jane Corwin Ad

Responding to Democrat attacks, the GOP is really trying to blur the Medicare/Social Security issue: The most effective part of this ad is Corwin’s appearance at the end. She just seems nice, doesn’t she? Dave Weigel is up in the district covering the campaign, and has a report on Wednesday’s debate between Corwin and Democrat […]

About Today’s FMJRA Award

You might notice that the Full Metal Jacket Reach-Around Award is currently allocated to “Steve Eggleston, Irresistible Sex God of the Innerwebs.” A technical problem developed on the site this morning and Steve said he knew how to fix it. Helpful assistance was also offered by Jimmie “The Awesomeness” Bise.

Holy Freaking Crap: Time Magazine’s GOP 2012 Chart Omits Herman Cain!

Da Tech Guy points out that Time magazine’s resident political “expert” Mark Halperin has a chart giving odds on candidates for the 2012 Republican presidential nomination, a chart that completely omits the hands-down winner of the first debate in South Carolina. Halperin also omits Rick Santorum and gives thousand-to-one odds against Michelle Bachmann — and Bachmann, whatever the […]

VIDEO: Chomsky vs. Israel

Donald Douglas at American Power got this video during Noam Chomsky’s appearance at UCLA: Donald describes Chomksy’s lecture as “propaganda, and says: [W]hat’s even more fascinating than hearing Chomsky’s America-bashing is observing the rock star status he’s afforded by the huge crowd of collegiate wannabe bohemians, diehard pro-terror communists, and the campus Islamist jihadis who […]

It’s OK To Relax About Osama

by Smitty Pamela, I respect you endlessly, but I’m curious: where is the line on too much? Osama was given the proper, standard treatment for the deceased. Chaplains (I presume) did their job. Many of us, myself in particular, were repulsed and outraged by the revelation that the US military was forced to bury Osma […]
