The Martha’s Vineyard Story Made the Left Look Bad, and the Hits Keep on Coming

Posted by Mike LaChance on September 17, 2022 57 Comments

Yesterday, I noted how the Martha's Vineyard incident brought out a lot of moral superiority on the left. What they don't seem to get is that the optics of this entire affair have made them look bad. Really bad. There are so many examples, but here are a few big ones.

Hundreds of drivers were stranded on I-95 in Virginia this week due to a snowstorm and an ensuing traffic jam. Liberals on social media used the opportunity to bash Glenn Youngkin, but there's one little problem. Youngkin isn't the governor yet. This was Ralph Northam's problem.

By now you probably have heard about the Tommy Lee rant. It was a tweet by the drummer for Motley Crue lashing out at and vowing retribution against Trump supporters, conservatives, religious Christians, and just about everyone else left out of the progressive coalition.

Accused “Extreme Ithaca Liberal” campaign sign thief to walk free

Posted by William A. Jacobson on February 05, 2019 10 Comments

You remember the Extreme Ithaca Liberal campaign theme used successfully by Republican Representative Tom Reed in my home district NY-23? The Extreme Ithaca Liberal theme was used to beat well-financed liberal challengers over the head with a caricature of Ithaca liberals. It was a brilliant campaign theme because there was at least a kernel of truth to it, and the challenger didn't have to be from Ithaca for it to work.

“Conservatives are using identity politics to destroy liberalism from within”

Posted by William A. Jacobson on October 21, 2018 26 Comments

One of the jokes on Twitter is how the mainstream media deflects liberal and Democrat failings by focusing on conservative and Republican reactions. Hence, headlines start with phrasing that conservatives and Republicans "pounce" or "seize on" or "slam" liberal mistakes.

Is Mitch McConnell “the Michael Jordan of owning the libs”?

Posted by William A. Jacobson on August 22, 2018 57 Comments

You remember the phrase: "own a lib"? It was a hot topic not long ago after Nikki Haley cautioned high school conservatives not to make "owning the libs" the focus of their activism. I respectfully disagreed, ‘Owning the libs’ in the defense of liberty is no vice.

I didn't want to write about Kevin Williamson. I even emailed Kemberlee and Mary earlier this evening and told them I "don't feel like writing about Kevin Williamson." If you don't know what I'm talking about, then you must not be on Twitter. Consider yourself lucky. Twitter is a pus pocket.

Liberal self-parody: “I detest Trump, but a ‘redneck’ fixed my Prius with zip ties”

Posted by William A. Jacobson on February 07, 2018 79 Comments

In the annals of unintentional liberal self-parody, there is a special place reserved for a column by Ruth Mayor, "I detest Trump, but a ‘redneck’ fixed my Prius with zip ties." What makes it so classic is that Mayor doesn't intend it as self-parody. She clearly intends it to reflect a liberal's awakening to the goodness in some people she otherwise wouldn't associate with. So it's basically virtue-signaling in the age of Trump Derangement Syndrome.
