Banning Traffic Cameras

by Smitty Insty’s link on Iowa banning traffic cameras leads to a subversive thought serious question: why do we have unmarked police cars? In military terms, the idea of having the authorities pose as civilians is a matter of OPDEC. Going undercover makes sense when, say, infiltrating criminal organizations. Is that an example of overkill, […]

Is There a Real ‘Elizabeth Reichert’?

CHARLESTON, S.C. Last night when we left the Pro-Life Presidential Forum in Greenville, the windshields of most of the cars in the parking lot were festooned with pink flyers attacking Rick Santorum and his wife, Karen.

You know, “the long march” like the one the left took through out political, academic, religious, […]

Bill Maher Emits Truth

by Smitty He admits his audience is brainwashed liberals. Rob Reiner notes that this is what Maher attracts. Amazing. via American Glob

The Duke

by Smitty Slightly rough language here. This sounds like excerpts from a larger interview. Does anyone know the context?

Anonymous: You’re Doing It Wrong

by Smitty I suffered through this entire video: How hard is it to run a manifesto through a speech synthesizer and upload it to YouTube? Even to obscure the account that delivered the video? It’s bad enough to place yourself on a level with the Chief Executive, and order him about. What is worse will […]
