Smittypalooza III Was Jolly Good Fun

by Smitty The guests, the venue, and the food were splendid. Chris Cassone and I bonded instantly. At the next table, I overheard him sing “I wanna be a lifeguard. . .” and I yelled “Blotto!” and he was shocked “You’ve heard of Blotto?” The little Dell Inspiron Mini is mostly a good gadget. The […]

Smittypalooza III Is Underway

by Smitty We’re in the John Paul Jones Room at the Army and Navy Club. Stacy has been on a tear the last few weeks; he’s looking just a little bit stiff. At any rate, it’s time to play host, and we’ll update this later. Update: Let’s have everyone type in a quotation: Barbara Espinosa: […]

Joan Walsh: The Smoker She Drinks, The Player She Gets

by Smitty Joan Walsh has posted the most risible dismissal of Andrew Breitbart imaginable. Emphasis mine: Andrew Breitbart isn’t fit to spit-shine the shoes of civil rights hero and Congressman John Lewis. It’s ludicrous to think that the right-wing bully believed he had the moral or political standing to call Lewis a liar, after Lewis […]

Breitbart Party Voodoo

“Best photo ever!” Lyndsey Fifield exclaimed after seeing this photo of a conversation at Friday’s New Orleans blogger bash off Chartres Street near the levee: Lyndsey reacts to Breitbart’s remark — a Tulane alumnus, Breitbart was confirming that New Orleans voodoo is a reality — as Dave Weigel of the Washington Post and political operative Zach […]

He was kind enough to extend the loan of his casual fedora — my favorite from the Scott Brown campaign we covered together — which has made several guest […]

Blogging As An Exchange Of Nerve Treading

by Smitty Cassandra at Villainous Company returns the favor with an ugly stereotype: In all fairness, the biggest proponents of the “that’s all we ever think about and we can’t control ourselves” meme tend to be … men. Why do guys talk about themselves that way? A few points: The fact that the word ‘meme‘ is […]

Da Tech Guy And The Travelling Fedora Show

by Smitty Da Tech Guy who, it is fair to say, blogged everyone else at CPAC ’10 into the dust, has an announcement and details for his splendid blogging road show. Having had the privilege of hosting him here at my modest abode, I will say that I can’t think of a more warm, genuine […]

VIDEO: Live from New Orleans, It’s the Andrew Breitbart Experience!

The dude was on fire today at the Southern Republican Leadership Conference, and the MSM couldn’t get enough: Dave Weigel was asking Breitbart about criticism of the O’Keefe-Giles ACORN sting videos. And then a guy from CBS News asked some more questions: Right now, I’m blogging this upstairs while a Blogger Bash is going on downstairs. […]
