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

Fake Singing, Real Tyranny

Beyoncé lip-synched “The Star-Spangled Banner” at Obama’s inaugural. She’s as real as Manti Te’o’s dead girlfriend. Meanwhile, Harry Reid — who hasn’t passed a budget in four years — is threatening to turn the U.S. Senate into North Korea with himself as Dear Leader. Isn’t this the part of the story where the barbarians storm the city gates […]

The Next 1,460 Days: I Still Hope He Fails

If only more people had listened to Rush Limbaugh . . . My post this morning about how to hate Democrats reminded Andrew J. Patrick of the bitter debate between Jeff Goldstein and Patterico, and Andrew makes a good point: The Democrats did not respond to getting their teeth kicked in by George Bush in […]

Democrats: You Can Never Hate Them Nearly as Much as They Hate You

@rsmccain thank you sir! — David Limbaugh (@DavidLimbaugh) January 22, 2013 Last night, I saw a post at an anti-Palin blog that had more than 200 vitriolic comments about the woman they called “the Creature from Lake Lucille.” More than four years after Sarah Palin was the Republican vice-presidential candidate, she still inspires frothing rage […]

Our Long National Nightmare Is Over

By which, of course, I mean Monday. It’s now 12:01 a.m. ET Tuesday, and so I kept my vow not to say a word about Re-Coronation Day. Others who chronicled the event now have stains on their pants from the orgasmic gush. Chris Matthews emitted his usual effusion of idiocy, and over on the Third-Place […]

Show Some Civility, You Nazi Racists!

Steve McCann on the divisiveness of the Obama Age: This past week, Bob Sheiffer of CBS compared defeating the NRA to defeating the Nazis in World War II. Not to be outdone Martin Bashir of NBC said the NRA “…deserved to be compared to Hitler.” Representative Hank Johnson (D-GA) claimed:  “…they [NRA] cannot get over the fact […]

‘Arab Spring’ Update: Hostages Killed in Algeria; French Fight Islamists in Mali

“The International Society for the Suppression of Savage Customs had entrusted him with the making of a report, for its future guidance. And he had written it, too. I’ve seen it. I’ve read it. It was eloquent, vibrating with eloquence, but too high-strung, I think. Seventeen pages of close writing he had found time for! […]

The Country’s Going Straight to Hell, But at Least We’ve Got a ‘Likeable’ President

Random adults: [M]ore than seven in 10 are dissatisfied with the current state of the economy, and just more than a third are either “very” or “fairly” confident in Obama’s ability to promote a strong and growing economy. And 60 percent believe the coming year will be a time to hold back and save because […]

‘Just Another Elitist Hypocrite’

The National Rifle Association’s new ad: (Via Memeorandum and Hot Air.) Liberals were on a gun-control rant for the past month. The NRA’s been signing up dues-paying members: A day before President Barack Obama is scheduled to release Vice President Joe Biden’s recommendations to curb gun violence in the United States, the National Rifle Association told U.S. […]
