to see readers wait for a red light to take a bumper sticker photo. Thanks to reader Ira who writes: Love the blog, and look forward to all the bumper stickers. Attached is one I observed in Naples, FLA almost two weeks ago, while on a trip to...
Wolf Blitzer started the night by confirming that Wolf really was his first name. In the introductory statements, Mitt Romney confirmed that Mitt was his first name. Except that it's not, it's Willard. Which leads to the Tweet of the Night from @AshleyRParker: ...

As this goes to post, Wolf Blitzer is preparing carefully and cautiously for the Republican foreign policy / national security debate he will be moderating tonight on CNN. The questions were written long ago, but they are being checked and rechecked again. No chances can be...
Steve Haywood at Power Line (h/t Instapundit) has a good post pointing out how the Occupy movement moved quickly from Woodstock to Altamont: Numerous observers have pointed out how the media and liberals (sorry for the redundancy) lavished sympathy on Occupy Wall Street until it became...
Yes, there is another debate tonight. I haven't decided whether to go "live" or do commentary at the breaks. While it would be easy to complain about yet another debate, I think the debates have been worthwhile in sorting out the candidates. Tonight will be the...
It's been a really long time (almost two years, I think) since I've done this. A number of readers have been very generous over the years both in making one time donations and monthly subscriptions (starting at $5 per month) [Some people have had trouble with these...
What kind of movement calls female supporters "white bitches"? And what type of women take that to be a term of endearment? Via The Atlantic, The Occupy Movement's Women Problem: "I'm called 'that white bitch who gets everything she wants' at the GA's," says Elise Whitaker, 21, adopting a bit...
Fresh off seeing Alan Grayson ads all over conservative blogs (including LI), I’m now seeing an independent expenditure campaign against Scott Brown that highlights his conservative votes. Ironically, it might even be helpful to Brown for such ads to appear on sometimes-skeptical conservative sites to highlight...

But the big federal deficit reductions that are to...
Not that anyone who should try to find out about the distinction would care, but Ayn Rand ≠ libertarianism. I recently had an email forwarded to me by a friend on an "Occupy" listserve from an academic with the subject line "A little something for the libertarians"...
There is a belief on the right that John McCain lost because he was too liberal and conservatives chose to stay home on election day. Some who hold this belief threaten to go Scozzafava on the GOP and refuse to work to stop Obama if...
Dr. Melissa Clouthier writing about An Indictment Of Right Leaning Journalism By Ben Domenech: Here’s the nutshell: The Left-leaning journalism investigates the right. The Right-leaning journalism provides commentary and (and Ben doesn’t say this, but I am) when they do rarely investigate, investigates the right after being...
The same way Ted Kennedy and John McCain did. And it's already showing results for Obama. Mitt Romney's negatives are rising because of some initial attacks by the Obama campaign apparatus on Romney's "core" and his Wall Street connections: The Purple Poll, a survey of 12 swing...
