Sneak Peek: The Conservative Cubicle Art Project
A couple months ago, in a post about the Power Line Prize, Kurt Schlichter wrote: [T]here is a problem with conservative art, which is the same with all art in general – most of it sucks. Most art is bad. Conservative art seems to be bad in its own unique way. As my Twitter pal [...]
Why is Michael Moore a Socialist? It Rhymes with “Wreconimic Lupidity”
