Man in Kentucky Head-Stomping Incident Identified as Paul Supporter Mike Pezzano UPDATE: MoveOn.org Activist Was Charged in Greenpeace Vandalism UPDATE: Rand Paul Describes ‘Crowd Control Problem’ at Event (Video)

My Kentucky conservative friend Lisa Graas reports she got an e-mail from a Tea Party activist identifying the man, and offers photographic proof. Please note that Pezzano is allegedly the man in the plaid shirt who wrestled MoveOn activist Lauren Valle to the ground, not the guy who stomped her. Meanwhile, quite predictably, I find myself accused by […]

Do the Kentucky Head-Stomp!

It’s the dance sensation that’s sweeping the nation: Lisa Graas (who experienced the frightening online wrath of Paulistas during the Kentucky GOP primary) linked this story at her blog.

The media, in general, is engaged in a McCarthyite war against a lawful candidate, and the WaPo ought to be extinguishing, rather than […]

Is Jillian Bandes Stalking Marco Rubio?

The intrepid Townhall reporter is following him all over Florida while singing silly love songs in her car: We can forgive Jillian if she seems a wee bit obsessed. Marco had us at “hello,” and few developments of the mid-term campaign are more encouraging for conservatives than the success of Rubio, who inspired the “Not One […]

‘Could You Say Senator, Instead Of Ma’am. It’s Just A Thing. I Worked So Hard To Get That Endorsement. Wait. Give It Back!’

by Smitty Napalm, in addition to sticking to less savory things, sticks to the VFW-PAC. Blackfive reports the smell of that napalm in the morning, claiming the PAC and its endorsement of Senator Boxer.
