The Other McCain

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

Department of Shocking News

Obama can’t create change with words alone — Eugene Robinson, Washington Post (Contary to rumors that the first draft of tonight’s State of the Union address began with “fiat lux.”)

Pundette Schools Christopher Buckley

Why were so many intellectuals such chumps for Change? Former fan Christopher Buckley isn’t feeling the thrill anymore, either. The first-class temperament and impressive writing talents never panned out . . . Mr. Buckley probably cringes at the sound of their names, but Sarah Palin and Joe the Plumber read Obama like a book. They were exactly […]

VIDEO: Judge Napolitano on ‘TurboTax’ Geithner and the AIG Scandal

Watch the latest news video at video.foxnews.com Wow. I knew the Judge leaned libertarian — NTTAWWT — but I didn’t realize how hard-core he was until I saw that video. Lew Rockwell? Dude. A very interesting way to debunk that “neoconservative” smear against Fox News, eh? Giethner and TARP inspector general Neil Barofsky will testify […]

Obama’s Clintonian SOTU

In 2000, I won a $40 newsroom pool at The Washington Times by making the best prediction of the length of Bill Clinton’s State of the Union Address. (Hint: With Clinton, always bet longer.) For a decade, from the late Clinton era and continuing through the Bush years, my job on SOTU nights was to edit […]

Iran Discovers the N-Word

Evidently, it has an equivalent in Farsi: Mohammad Javad Larijani criticized the policies adopted by U.S. President Barack Obama and referred to him using a racial epithet. “When Barack Obama was sworn into office he talked of verbally engaging Iran,” the U.C. Berkeley graduate was quoted as saying. “What has changed is that today this […]

‘Who Is Ellie Light?’

That’s the John Galt-like question Michelle Malkin ponders this morning: It’s a handy rhetorical rejoinder the next the White House or your nutroots neighbors and co-workers try to tar the Tea Party or any other grass-roots revolts against President Obama as phony, top-down operations. When Obama’s Soros-funded, Big Labor-directed, K Street-organized goons engage in classic […]
