Hey, Nice Try With the #DemandAVote Spambots #p2! Jacked and Busted! #tcot

Why does the Left hate us so much? Mainly because we’re red-blooded, patriotic, God-fearing Americans, but also because we keep messing up their narratives. The Left (#p2) can’t stand the fact that conservatives (#tcot) are more active on Twitter, so that when they roll out a pre-fabricated Obama-approved #hashtag, it immediately (and hilariously) gets hijacked by us. Just for […]

Dangerous Video Could Trigger Another Great Awakening If Too Many View

by Smitty This is lengthy, but worth your time, especially the first 38 minutes or so: Positive arguments given by Dr. Craig include that God is the best explanation: why anything at all exists, for the origin of the universe, the applicability of mathematics to the physical world, for the fine tuning of the universe […]

Grief Tends Not To Transmit Far

by Smitty Jerry makes a good point here: It’s interesting to note where priorities lie for people. I clearly recall after my brother passed away unexpectedly last year feeling not a little anger toward those too self-preoccupied to express condolences even after having been directly notified about what was happening.

Jonah Goldberg: ‘Cheer Up, The Worst Is Yet To Come’

Of Course It’s Not A Single Dime: It’s Trillions If Dimes

by Smitty President Obama’s humor is so subtle as to be unknown. But he’s kind of a funny guy, if you approach his schtick with a certain diabolical, bloody-minded literalness: AFP has a spending accountability project that is interesting. I wonder, though, if we’re not focusing too much on symptoms, and not the disease here. […]

Thaddeus McCotter Remembers, If Not Honors, Millard Fillmore

by Smitty In one of the biggest Huh? moments of my memory, McCotter went from high-ranking GOP representative and dark horse Presidential hopeful to. . .recovering Congressbum and of Counsel at the Detroit law firm of Ottenwess, Allman & Taweel, PLC. McCotter offers a profile of Millard Fillmore over at Breitbart.com, wherein he performs the […]

‘Corrupt Democrat,’ ‘Obnoxious Feminist’ and Other Phrases to Avoid as Redundant

In all honesty, when you hear the word “feminist,” does anyone think of adjectives like pleasant, cheerful, successful and attractive? No, of course not. You think of adjectives like strident, angry, bitter and ugly. Also, quite often, ridiculous — as illustrated by the deranged mob of strident, angry, bitter, ugly women who showed up for a […]
