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

Swedish Socialist Hypocrisy

Leftist dies, hilarious hijinks ensue: “Greedy” means “you won’t give me what I want, just because it’s yours, not mine.”

Cave To Conservatives Or CAVE ASINI

by Smitty Emphasis mine Emerging media narrative: If Romney picks Ryan, it will be because he caved to conservative pressure. ow.ly/cRrqOh/t @ryanlizza — Byron York (@ByronYork) August 9, 2012 Which conservatives are those? The ones who rocked the 2010 election, the ones who put Cruz on the ballot in Texas, or the ones who supported […]

Steady There, Erick

Mitt Romney’s spokeswoman Andrea Saul said something phenomenally stupid on TV today, inspiring Erick Erickson to pronounce doom on the entire Romney campaign. Needless to say, this strikes me as a bit premature. Grant that such a tactical blunder is not encouraging. Factor in the Romney campaign’s generally standoffish attitude toward much of the conservative […]

BREAKING: Lying Democrats Lie About Lying Democrat Ad Full of Lying Lies

Really, it’s like Democrats are trying to set a world land speed record for lying or something. No sooner do I update with their latest lies than the Democrats tell another half-dozen lies. Just for the fun of it, I guess. Romney campaign press release: OBAMA CAMPAIGN CAUGHT LYING ABOUT DISGRACED AD “With unemployment at […]

Democrats: The Party of Lies

The hardest thing about this post was the headline. My first idea was, “Godd–ned Worthless Motherf–king Democrat Party, Go to Hell,” but that seemed likely to offend the “family values” conservatives.

Ron Hubbard published a self-help book called Dianetics: The Modern Science of Mental Health, which humbly claimed itself to be “a milestone […]

Hitler: ‘My Main Goal of Supporting the German Community Outweighed the Collateral Damage to Poland …’

This is a slight paraphrase of how the obnoxious a–hole justifies his bullying of a Chick-fil-A employee at a drive-through window: Adam Smith berates a Chick-fil-A employee, got fired, and now has released a new video apologizing to Rachel, who was his drive-thru victim. He goes on about how she handled his rant with grace, […]

Slander on the Senate Floor: Harry Reid Repeats Romney Tax Accusation

Ed Morrissey calls it “despicable and grossly irresponsible,” while Jeff Goldstein predicts there will be a harsh backlash against Reid’s tactics: The arrogance of power can be truly astonishing to watch. Harry Reid hasn’t passed a budget in nearly four years, and has obstructed every meaningful effort to reduce the out-of-control federal deficit. For Reid — a […]
