Atychiphobia is the abnormal, unwarranted, and persistent fear of failure. From prior photographer Cathy who spotted this in Eustis, Florida, and sent it with the subject line "NIIIIICCCEEE!!": ...
I have been frustrated with the ability of various pressure groups to mobilize people on Twitter with great speed, while we play catch-up. So we have just added a new feature here, the Legal Insurrection Emergency Broadcast System. When there is a developing event, you will see...
I have alluded to issues certain writers have taken with Elizabeth Warren's academic writings. But never have I seen a more scathing critique of Warren than that published by highly regarded Rutgers Law Professor Philip Shuchman which was uncovered by Michael Patrick Leahy at Breitbart.com. The article is...
Tuesday's recall election in Wisconsin won't be the end of the road for union organizers and radical leftists. No matter what the outcome is for Walker, Kleefisch, and the others, it appears that Wisconsin's role as host will continue. Worker's World reports that there are widespread...
We really needed this. No, we really needed this. We don't have a lot going for us right now. It's a small state. Everyone knows someone or at least knows someone who knows someone. Here was my reaction at the time: Rhode Island wins #MissUSA! Only 1 way...
Yesterday I highlighted the good work being done by Robert Stacy McCain to follow up on the Kimberlin/Walker case and related issues. Kudos also go out to Patrick Frey at Patterico, who has gone through as much as anyone, for continuing to follow through, including these...

Desperate times give rise to desperate actions, and we just witnessed one of the most bumbled desperation passes since someone forgot the history of typewriter fonts. Why bother with the accustion, let's just get to the most enjoyable images of the bubble bursting, via Daily Kos: And...
When someone in the blogosphere does a good job on a story, and goes places no one else has gone with it, he or she deserves credit, and at least a shout out. Robert Stacy McCain is still on the Brett Kimberlin/Aaron Walker story while many others have moved...
Wisconsin is abuzz with activity in anticipation of Tuesday's Recall election, and many Tea Party and conservative leaders are ensuring the message gets out that this is not a battle against the union members themselves. Nancy Milholland, who organized yesterday's Tea Party, opened the rally by...
Elizabeth Warren is the Democratic Party nominee for Senate, after party leaders twisted arms to make sure Marisa DeFranco did not make the primary ballot. Warren may have become the nominee, but she's still not Native American. Whereas prior to May 2012 one might have said Warren simply believed what...
