Senator Rand Paul At CPAC Live Blog #StandWithRand

by Smitty 13:36 Metallic “Enter Sandman” bumper music. 13:37 I get 10 minutes. I brought 13 hours of material. I have a message for POTUS: 13:37 No one person gets to decide guilt or innocence. My question was whether Presidential power has limits. 13:38 President Obama signed an indefinite detention bill, for all he says […]

Seven Years In The Valley

by Smitty I’m off to CPAC, but wanted to offer a salute to our left-coast affiliate, Valley of the Shadow, courageously trying to sort out that Pacific bowl of granola, while we yuck it up here. Keep the pimp hand strong, Joe!

Future Kentucky Sen. Puffy Face: Everything She Doesn’t Like Is Rape

by Smitty Americans for Prosperity sure isn’t Americans Trying To Help A Beleaguered Administration Find A Way To Navigate A Second Term. So, despite all the mean-spirited nit-picking of their post, this blog will, once again, fearlessly step into the breach, and try to salvage some of that tattered honor: Fiction: FAA: “In one of […]

American Guts: #StandWithRand
