John Hawkins has another blogger poll up at Right Wing News for which I was one of the respondents. Normally, John keeps his questions tightly focused around a particular topic or upcoming event (an election, a Congressional vote, etc) but this bunch of questions was kind of all over the place. I wonder where he’s [...]

Thanks, Republican Party. Thanks a whole heaping pile. For the next six years we’ll have to put up with this angry, nasty, misogynist, anti-Christian wretch of a human being, thanks to a fabulously wretched campaign by Norm Coleman. Seriously, if the GOP can’t beat Al Franken, who on Earth can they beat? UPDATE: Ed Driscoll [...]

If the Obama administration has a coherent foreign policy, the theme seems to be “Do the Opposite of George Bush”.

Our non-meddling President, after two weeks of assiduously not meddling in the “vigorous debate” in Iran (wherein one side is allowed to use guns and clubs as debating tools), has decided to meddle in the internal affairs of Honduras. And, true to form, he picked the wrong side. Reaction to the apparent coup was swift. [...]

Is it too much to ask that the President’s Energy Czar, whatever the hell that is, actually read the entire bill she is lobbying so hard to get through Congress? Well, if you ask her, and Steve Doocy did, it’s horribly unfair to even ask the question. Doocy asked her five times and she managed [...]

SCOTUS decided one of the big cases of the year today, Ricci v DiStefano, and there weren’t any major surprises. You can find a couple pretty good analyzes from Ed Morrissey and a roundup at Instapundit. The meat of the SCOTUS decision is that the city of New Haven was wrong to deny the promotions [...]

If you are at all interested in the Inspectors General scandal, but think that there’s no way you can get caught up on all whole story, then you need to read two essential posts by Stacy McCain. He has written a couple detailed accounts of the events thus far and tossed in a little commentary, [...]
