Just when you thought it could not get any worse. MoveOn.org and Michael Moore have produced a video which is beyond description. Can we just declare MoveOn a mental illness so it can be covered (under Obamacare, of course). Video (h/t NRO)  NSFW (language warning): Makes the creepy singing...

This was all so predictable. The water has not yet receded in much of the storm damaged region, yet the big government straw man arguments survived and are flourishing. On CBS this morning a correspondent (don't remember his name) was asked by one of the anchors what...

From Leslie Eastmen of Temple of Mut, and contributor at College Insurrection: I just came back from a Jousting Tournament with my family. As we were leaving the parking lot, fate had it that my husband's eyes alighted upon a car with bumper stickers featuring Romney/Ryan,...
