The Other McCain

GOP Hopefuls Will Halt No Whine Before Its Time

by Smitty Alternate title: “GOP Hopefuls Note Budget Gallipoli, Neglect To Engage”. Via Protein Wisdom, we have Charles Gasparino in the New York Post: Sure, the candidates offered vague praise for Ryan after the plan’s release on Tuesday. Mitt Romney said Ryan is “setting the right tone for finally getting spending and entitlements under control.” […]

Climate Change Consenseless Goes Down In The House

by Smitty (h/t Pirate’s Cove) Lawmakers voted 184-240 against Rep. Henry Waxman’s (D-Calif.) amendment to a GOP-led bill that would strip the Environmental Protection Agency’s power to regulate greenhouse gases. The amendment from Waxman — the top Democrat on the Energy and Commerce Committee — reflects Democratic efforts to cast the bill as an outrageous […]

The Progressive Hits Just Keep On Coming. The GOP Wasted Money?

by Smitty Alan Colmes continues to be a more refined form of silliness than the SOL/PuffHo. The other day I was noting the sanctimonious concern for the poor. Now we observe him, get this, fretting that “GOP Shutdown Threats Already Costing Us Money“. This is hysterical, in both the ancient and modern senses of the […]

Insty’s Sarcasm Exceeds Caustic Level

by Smitty Here: I can predict that President Obama will do something that his supporters used to think was stone-cold evil and unAmerican, and most of them will be fine with it. Oh, wait, that’s already happened? Never mind, then. I blame Fukushima radiation. Oh, and did I mention the #Obama2012Slogans hash on Twitter? Heh: […]

Trog Summarizes Ryan, And Had Me Until The Last Sentence

by Smitty TrogloPundit does a fine job of summarizing thoughts of Ace and Hot Air on the Ryan budget. He wonders what Ryan has to do to get past some of the underwhelmed response in the conservative blogs. I understand you’ve got to cheer for the Representative from your own state, but really, Trog: this […]

Thugland, USA: Baseball Fan Brutally Attacked Outside Dodger Stadium

A 42-year-old paramedic is hospitalized with critical head injuries after he was savagely stomped in the parking lot while leaving a Dodgers-Giants game last week. The injured man, a father of two young children, is a Giants fan and the Los Angeles Times depicts this atrocity as a sports-rivalry-gone-wrong. But Southern California blogger Donald Douglas […]

In Defense of Conor Friedersdorf

by Smitty Let the Tweet tell the tale of his rebuttal of Stacy McCain: That Conor: His nouns are bold, his verbs uncanny. Admit he’s the king of prose, or he’ll whip your fanny!  At least Conor is using TweetDeck. Stacy. Now, since the lone novembered one (for you phonetic alphabet junkies) thinks that he’s […]

More On Lindsey Graham (Don’t Speak Those Four Words Too Quickly)

by Smitty Gateway Pundit stands at the brink of a pit and peers over at a US Senator ignoring the First Rule of Holes. It wouldn’t be so bad if Graham wasn’t in an elected office. Like a flag burner or torcher of anyone’s scripture, Graham should be allowed to make a colossal ass of […]
