The Other McCain

"One should either write ruthlessly what one believes to be the truth, or else shut up." — Arthur Koestler

Republican Fascism And Raaaaacism

by Smitty Yet another superb Bill Whittle outing: Now that you have a clear idea of the historical basis for ‘fascism’, here goes Larry Johnson: The core of conservatism is the belief in the inalienable rights of the individual and the limits imposed on Federal power in order to protect and preserve those rights.

The Krauthammer Caucus

One cause of this year’s up-and-down cycles in the contest for the Republican presidential nomination has been the powerful influence Fox News exercises over conservative opinion. While I am capable of filtering Fox in the same way I filter any other information stream — and am naturally resistant to peddlers of Conventional Wisdom — it cannot be denied […]

We’ve All Gone Crazy

Folie à deux — shared psychosis; a psychiatric syndrome in which symptoms of a delusional belief are transmitted from one individual to another. Who’s nuts: David Frum or the Republicans who hate him? It’s a very strange experience to have your friends think you’ve gone crazy. Some will tell you so. Others will indulgently humor […]

Indoctrination: What the Occupiers Believe and Why They Believe It

NYPD arrest Occupy Wall Street protesters on the Brooklyn Bridge, Oct. 1 “In the hands of a skillful indoctrinator, the average student not only thinks what the indoctrinator wants him to think . . . but is altogether positive that he has arrived at his position by independent intellectual exertion.

It must […]

First, They Came for Mel Bradford

Karen Kraushaar made this horse ‘very uncomfortable,’ according to friends of the horse, who requested anonymity “I love Cain’s story. He’s a guy who came from nowhere and did well, obviously against heavy odds. He’s a doer and a straight-talker, which I don’t see enough of from either party.” — Clint Eastwood “On his radio […]

‘Controversy’ Over: National Right to Life Vouches for Cain’s Pro-Life Bona Fides

We should consider the abortion kerfuffle kicked off by the Piers Morgan interview Wednesday as being decisively ended now: The National Right to Life Committee is today [Friday] vouching for Republican presidential candidate Herman Cain’s bona fides, saying the businessman who is considered by many to be the current GOP frontrunner is pro-life. … “Herman Cain’s pro-life,” […]
