kinda sucks. Spotted yesterday in Ithaca: ...
I know you wanted the Official Legal Insurrection Victory Dance, or at least a little celebratory dance. But as mentioned earlier in the night, this district was heavily Jewish and Asian, so we will go to song: And Tweet of Night: Turner speech -- Mr. President, people are...
Ace reports: You know what Jews really don't like? Jews for Jesus. I have a lot of Jewish friends, and they almost all go banana-sandwich over this. They don't like the invitation to conversion. They do react as if what is being discussed is nearly a hate-crime...
My friend sent me this link yesterday, and I could hardly believe the headline: Margaret Thatcher has become a hip youth icon. Harry Mount was at a party: held at Maggie's, the Thatcher-themed nightclub on the Fulham Road, in west London. It will come as no surprise to...
Judge Christopher C. Conner of the U.S. District Court in the Middle District of Pennsylvania has stricken the Obamacare mandatge in a Memorandum and Order issued today (h/t Fuzzy via Gateway Pundit), as reported by Bloomberg: The insurance-buying mandate in President Barack Obama’s health-care reform legislation is...
If you want a good measure of how deeply the collective bargaining bill in Wisconsin has disrupted public sector unions, there is no better example than the Wisconsins Education Association Council (WEAC). Last month WEAC announced that it was laying off 40% of its staff. With...
Newt Gingrich has found his voice in the recent two debates. He has been the most forceful and articulate voice lancing Obama and everything Obama stands for. Sure, Newt has the "baggage" but he is rising? ...
Constitutional amendments are oddly popular these days in Republican circles: A Federal Marriage Amendment, a Balanced Budget Amendment, and a constitutional amendment banning abortion have all been part of either congressional proposals or presidential candidate promises. This is a mistake. Controversial issues such gay marriage, abortion,...
Today, a special election will be held in New York's 9th congressional district to fill the seat vacated by disgraced dick pic enthusiast Anthony Wiener. The three polls released this month have Republican Bob Turner up about five or six points over Democrat David Weprin....
There is a good reason Obama did not unveil his jobs bill prior to his jobs speech. It's because the jobs bill is not a jobs bill, it is the tax increase Obama has been hoping for since he was a candidate, taking $400 billion from people...
It seems the rest of the Generation Y crew has weighed in on this, so I figured I'd put in my two cents. My experience is more like Michael's than Kathleen's. Islamist terrorism was a real issue in the world grew up in. It was something...
Received this note and photo from reader Tom in Colorado: I saw this morning's post of the "Annoy a Liberal" bumper sticker spotted by Linda in Tennessee. She beat me to it! I saw this one (attached) on the way home just yesterday. It's a variant...
Will not be "live blogging" it, but will have some observations. Feel free to comment. At the 8:30 break: Great line by Newt, Obama scares seniors every day. He made a strong substantive point, which is that why should be have to live in a system where...
None of my friends or relatives were directly affected by the attacks on September 11, 2001. I was just starting the fourth grade in North Carolina and, while I knew my parents were clearly worried about something, I didn't really understand what they were talking...
The Great Jobs Plan of 2011 is nothing more that The Great Tax Increase of 2011. He's completely incorrigible, the Rain Man of class warfare and tax increases on job creators: White House Office of Management and Budget Director Jack Lew outlined President Barack Obama's plan to...
This strikes me as more significant than Pawlenty for Romney, because it represents the future of the Republican Party coming out for Perry, whereas Pawlenty in many ways represented the past. Via CNN: Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal is backing Rick Perry for president, a major endorsement...
