Arlen Specter, Stand-up Comic?

by Smitty NBC10 Philadelphia: The longtime Pennsylvania senator performed stand-up at an open-mic night at the Helium Comedy Club in Philadelphia on Tuesday, continuing a post-politics foray into standup. “I’ve been in comedy now for 30 years,” the former senator told the crowd, reports the Inquirer.

Are You Sure That BHO Would Not Pursue War With Iran, Pamela?

by Smitty From CBS News: A federal judge has signed a default judgment finding Iran, the Taliban and al Qaeda liable in the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. Judge George Daniels in Manhattan signed the judgment Thursday, a week after hearing testimony in the 10-year-old case. The signed ruling, which he promised last week, came […]

Is BHO’s Re-Election Interest Misplaced?

by Smitty Disagreeing with Andrew Malcom here, emphasis mine: This makes it easier, if not quite inevitable, that Republicans will regain their Senate majority from 2006. Harry Reid’s Senate is now 53-47, counting two independents who caucus with him. So far, eight senators, six of them Dems, have decided to retire instead of facing this […]

Red At CHWAC Doesn’t Get The Class Warfare Joke

by Smitty Sweet, sweet NewSpeak. How thou makest the truth to reek. And those blindest Who’d their past seek. Dionne’s column is masterful. Wander through the professional-grade propaganda has E. J. denounces the GOP candidates. A taste: The GOP is engaged in a wholesale effort to redefine the government help that Americans take for granted […]

Prayer For The Egyptian Christians

by Smitty Christianity seems to make one a punching bag in the Middle East in general, and Egypt in particular: Under US and international law, growing numbers of Egyptian Christians will qualify as refugees if these conditions continue to worsen. For Americans, the persecution of religious believes in other countries is more than a foreign […]

Great News! John Dennis Undeterred In The Anti-Pelosi Struggle

by Smitty Do you remember John Dennis, brought to national attention by this Ladd Ehlinger outing? I just got a phone call from his campaign, and he’s running in 2012. Granted, his numbers are even rougher than Patrick Murray’s against Jim Moran, but the struggle against the Ruling Class Overlords permits no rest. John Dennis […]

Cli-Fi And Radical Feminism Go Together Like Czars And #OccupyResoluteDesk

by Smitty Thanks to Paco for ‘Cli-Fi’, which would expand to ‘climate fiction’, clearly. Equally brilliant: ‘an Ambassador-at-Large for Global Women’s Issues‘. Melanne Verveer’s post was created by President Obama on April 6, 2009, yet does not appear to be on the usual czar list. Fortunately, if we all chip in $40/week, we can cover […]
