Your Congress, Soon to Be Kennedy-Free!
A week ago, the distinguished gentleman from Massachusetts, Patrick Kennedy, decided to throw a few shots at newly-elected Senator Scott Brown. Kennedy called Brown’s candidacy “a joke” because Brown’s mere presence as a Senator threatened some tool of Big Labor that Kennedy wanted to head up the National Labor Relations Board. All those big union [...]
Word of Palin’s Speech Hits the Bunker
Even though it’s been out nigh unto forever (in internet years, which are like dog years except the multiplier is in days), I still laugh at the Hitler Downfall movie caption clips that pop up on YouTube. When one is done well (and lots of them are), the effect of Adolph Hitler going berzerk over [...]

Party of D’oh!
Maybe the left ought to reconsider the “Party of No” talking point the Democrats have been pushing to a willing media for the past year because it is doing them no good at all.

I have a post up at NewsReal Blog this morning on the odd “Green Police” commercial that aired during the Super Bowl and Audi’s dishonest explanation of what the commercial was really all about.

It’s a Jolly Fat Man Extermination Caption Contest!
Two things came to mind when I saw this picture: 1) I want one so very, very badly. A smaller desktop model will do, thanks. 2) The captioning potential is almost limitless. On that second point, how about a caption contest? I’ll prime the pump. …and the last thing Santa heard as he cam down [...]
Malcolm & Melissa: Another Podcast That Will Rock
Okay, now I’m jealous. My friend Melissa Clouthier, whose podcast is already a must-listen, is starting a second podcast with Andrew Malcolm. Malcolm is one of those rare ink and paper journalists who has jumped into the new media world with both feet. His witty “Top of the Ticket” blog has been a favorite of [...]
