I’ve only started to hear about Jamie Radtke, but I think we’ll all hear a lot more from her over the next year. She’s running for the Senate in Florida Virginia and her first task, no small one by any means, will be to knock off George Allen in the Republican Primary. Radtke is a [...]
I have to admit, it’s a pretty good day when a Presidential candidate (okay, an almost-candidate) wishes you a Happy Birthday without prompting. I’m not the type to get easily starstruck and I think I’m fairly unusual among political bloggers insofar as I’m not terribly awed by famous politicians. However, Herman Cain isn’t a politician [...]
I’m doing some guest-blogging at Hot Air for a few days while Ed Morrissey is out of the country for a few days and my first post this afternoon involves one of the silliest and most-frustrating stories I’ve seen all week. Apparently, the Brits have just a tiny problem with the concept of free speech, [...]
So, today is my birthday and, when I woke up this morning, I thought to myself, “Should I shamelessly use my natal day in a fundraising update post in the hopes that people will lavish me with more support?” Clearly, since you are now reading this post, the answer was, “Of course!” We’re halfway in [...]
Yesterday, President Obama released his long sought-after birth certificate. If you just yawned deeply and said, “…and?”, you pretty much had the correct reaction to that sentence. However, there is a certain segment of the fringe right for whom yesterday was Christmas and the Moon Landing all rolled up into one and tied off with [...]
The theme of Episode 91 is the narrative the media are building in anticipation of the 2012 election. I did take a brief second-half detour down memory lane prompted by the Easter Holiday and my yearly Jesus Christ Superstar tradition. My post at the Sundries Shack that prompted the first half of the show is [...]
I’m going to go way out on a limb and suggest that it’s not a good thing for the UN Secretary General to vote “present” on the matter of human rights. The brutal crackdown by Syrian President Bashar Assad may finally be getting the attention of world leaders — but apparently not enough to stop [...]
I’m completely baffled by this move. WASHINGTON (AP) — President Obama plans this week to name CIA Director Leon E. Panetta to replace Defense Secretary Robert M. Gates, and Gen. David H. Petraeus, now running the war in Afghanistan, would take the CIA chief’s job in a major shuffle of the country’s top national security [...]
I can not for the life of me understand why this administration continues to deprive us of the chance to drill in our own soil for oil that belongs to us. With gas prices on a rocket sled toward $5 a gallon, it ought to be obvious that any real sign that we will take [...]
I endorse every word of Moe Lane’s blog post to ABC News. It is April of 2011. We do not actually need to have everybody and his/her brother/sister declaring for the freaking Republican nomination, simply because Barack Obama needed to declare as early as possible that he was running so that he can get a head [...]
