Potluck? Yes, Please!
I just got tipped to the launch of a new blog I think I’m really going to enjoy reading. It’s called Potluck and it’s a group blog, consisting of some of the smartest, wittiest, and most underrated women in the conservative blogosphere. Several of my friends are there including Obi’s Sister, Pat Austin, Jill of [...]
Enough Winter Already. Spring Training is Here!
If you are one of the approximately ten bazillion people who are sick and tired of winter, there is hope. Pitchers and catchers reported for Spring Training today, which means that spring is right around the corner. Chico Harlan is on the scene in Florida with the news from Day One of Washington National spring [...]
By the Power of Three, Let Conservative Wit Be!
I do not link to PJTV’s Trifecta nearly often enough and I really should. Not only are Steven Green, Bill Whittle, and Scott Ott three of the smartest conservative new media guys in the biz, but they are very, very funny. This week’s installment is pure video gold. Steve’s answer to the exit question is [...]
It’s Nice of Fox to Let PBS Do A Little Victory Dance
Finally, the network of Sesame Street, Andre Rieu, Ken Burns, and interminable fund-raising drives (despite our already hefty taxpayer “contributions”) can throw itself a party. A new poll conducted by GfK Roper Public Affairs & Media ranks PBS as one of the most trusted news sources and institutions, B&C reports. 40% of Americans polled report [...]
Double the Doug, Double the Love
Doug Hoffman, fresh off of giving Kerry Picket the scoop on his 2010 intentions, made the rounds at CPAC this morning. Stacy McCain and Hot Air both scored interviews with him. As I said yesterday, I like Hoffman. I think he’s a breath of unrefined fresh air for American politics and the Republican Party. He [...]
Ed Morrissey Wins Award, Is Introduced By Some Radio Guy
I mentioned yesterday that I had it on good authority there would be more surprises at CPAC, and so there was another one today. Ed Morrissey was voted the 2009 CPAC Blogger of the Year, one of the any prestigious awards I have not yet won (one day, though…one day). Ed is a good man [...]
Oh Yeah, The Left’s Attempt at a Tea Party Movement Can Only End In Hilarity
For all the opprobrium the left has heaped upon the Tea Party movement, including the disgusting “teabagger” smear, I can’t help but notice that when it needed to rachet up the sense of urgency, they’re running to form their own “tea parties” (via Ace, on whom the irony of the name of this new progressive [...]
Liz Cheney, Scott Brown, and Mitt Romney: Conservatism’s Future? Could Be, And I’m Good With It.
Here’s the video of the Scott Brown surprise appearance at CPAC as well as Mitt Romney’s speech. Most of the media attention will, I’m sure be on Brown, who I call “Senator Hunky Pants”, but don’t zone out and miss Romney. he was different today, more relaxed and confident, aware that he was in front [...]
