The City of Providence, in my home State of Rhode Island and Providence Plantations, is in dire financial trouble, as I have posted here many times before. The City, with its large tax-exempt university base and decades-long history of lush public sector benefits, has struggled under...

The latest installment of The Daily Caller's exposé on Media Matters concerns an e-mail regarding an action plan against Fox News which included hiring private investigators to go after Fox News executives, lawfare, and other acts of disruption: A little after 1 p.m. on Sept. 29, 2009,...

Yesterday, the editors of National Review called on Newt to drop out of the race in favor of Santorum: When he led Santorum in the polls, he urged the Pennsylvanian to leave the race. On his own arguments the proper course for him now is to endorse...

That's the bumper sticker I'm waiting for. Thanks to reader Steve, who writes: Saw these at the PetSmart on Charlotte in West Nashville, TN. Other than noticing they are a hockey fan, I'll let you decipher where this person stands on the issues. ...

"Global Minimum Tax' -- of course we can, that way businesses not only can't flee to other states, they can't flee to other countries! "He's a lying SOB" or maybe he just tells people one thing in private and another thing in public. "Don't actually write that...

Media Matters for America really is Media Matters for Obama, but you already knew that from the frequent posts here about it. Among other things, MMFA employs the most expensive proofreader in America, and the most aggressive and unapologetic purveyor of the "Israel-Firster" smear. It's quite a...

Yes, my thoughts exactly: National Review lost any credibility to chime in on the primaries when it ran its infamous Marvin the Martian cover and issue in late December. At least Andy McCarthy understood at the time: For the Editors to single out Gingrich for this kind of...

Would it be premature to call this the early leader for Tweet of the Year? Maybe, because considering who won last year, we may need to redistribute the honor so that less-gifted Twitter users do not have their self-esteem damaged. From the 2012 CPAC Humor Blogger of the...

I really need to stop using Twitter. Legal Insurrection receives CPAC award.  BTW, John Hawkins has photos and more from CPAC and the Red Carpet Bloggers Awards. in Chief.  Strong contender for bumper sticker of the year. Will we let them take this guy down?  Gov. Scott Walker...

Funny, I don't see a "stop" button. A feature, not a bug. From reader Bill in Florida, who spotted this on a counter, and laments: I have been seeing lots of good bumper stickers, one on a prius, but alas, traffic only runs unimpeded when I want...

anti-Israeli liar and agitator capable of? Maybe almost setting off violence by deliberately spreading false rumors regarding a pending Jewish destruction of the Al-aqsa Mosque.  He's not in Egypt, or Saudi Arabia, or Yemen.  He's right here, and he runs the nasty Electronic Intifada blog, and was active...

I previously posted about Rick Santorum's endorsement in 2004 of Arlen Specter against a challenge from Pat Toomey, in what was a precursor to the Tea Party v. Establishment fights to come. One of the unintended consequences of Specter's reelection was that in 2009 Specter switched parties,...

The Obama administration has been tightening the grip around the collective necks of the fossil fuel industry. The goal is of course to kill it and nowhere is this more self evident than with oil exploration. The most recent example is the studying to death of...

Can you imagine the uproar if a major conservative publication ran an image like this? The image is from New York Magazine, however, and it's in support of gay marriage, so the response will be muted, Obama Gay Marriage Evolution Watch: Day 468. A writer at WaPo does take...

Working on posts about Santorum's 2004 endorsement of and campaigning with Arlen Specter (and the false meme that we would not have Alito and Roberts if not for Santorum helping re-elect Specter), and another name to add to Operation Counterweight. But for now you'll have to...

With this being my first time ever attending CPAC, it can be easy to get caught up in the awe of it. The faces you see on the other end of the television every day turn into actual people and conference goers get a chance...
