Did Ford Taste the Power of the Pimp Hand?
I don’t quite know how to say this, but there’s a very good chance the Obama administration might have an Abuse of Power scandal brewing today. Yes, I know. You’re probably saying to yourself, “Abuse of Power? Those meek little lambs? Impossible!” On the other hand, you might also say, “Jimmie, I know all about Operation Fast [...]
Mmm Mmm Mmm! Barack Strawman Perry
In the last debate, Rick Perry trotted a giant strawman onto the debate stage in Florida, lit it on fire, and danced around it like he was an extra in a remake of The Wicker Man. I spent a couple days trying to figure out why he’d launch such a knuckle-headed attack against at least [...]

It’s not looking toward the White House or the “green jobs” loan program or the board [...]
All I Know of SolyndraScam is Now Yours
I had planned a comprehensive post on the growing SolyndraScam story but I have to admit failure. Things are moving so quickly and in so many different directions that it’s hard for me to fix one particular narrative in the time I have during the day to write blog posts. Instead, let me put together [...]
So, A Terrorist, A Drug Dealer, and an Under-Reported Story Walk into a Bar…
Q: Did you hear the one about the rocket launcher, grenade launcher, and several packages of explosives found by the US/Mexico border (via memeorandum)? A: No. I only get my news from CNN, MS-NBC, ABC, NBC, PBS, The Washington Post, and The New York Times. Q: How about the one about how we border a country [...]
