The Town-Hall Debate Liveblogging Thread

Jimmie | October 7, 2008 | Comments (4)

I’m starting to think that the entire election is riding on tonight’s debate. I know how that reads, but if John McCain turns in a mediocre performance, doesn’t substantially address the mortgage crisis and explain just who was in the middle of the whole mess, and doesn’t knock Obama off his game, this thing could [...]

Palin vs Biden – The Flurry in Missouri!

Jimmie | October 2, 2008 | Comments (2)

I’m set to begin the live-blogging, and I’m looking forward to seeing what each candidate brings to the table for us tonight. Check here for my pre-debate comments. This may not be the Thrilla in Manila, but I’m guessing that someone’s campaign is going to take a chin shot tonight. And here’s a nice bit [...]

Hey Congress, Grow Up!

Well, here we go. The House has rejected the bailout bill, by a pretty substantial margin and the stock market is flailing around wildly in response. The Hill reports that the Dow was down 525 points by the time the vote was over and Hot Air reports that there was a bit of a rebound [...]

ABC News has released a couple excerpts from Sarah Palin’s interview with Charles Gibson. What’s there tells me that while Palin was ready for the interview, Gibson wasn’t.

Michael Totten, reporting from Tblisi, Georgia, spoke to some survivors of the Russian attack on Gori. I thought this bit especially interesting: Her husband had remained behind and arrived in Tbilisi shortly before I did. “He was trying to keep the house and the fields,” she explained. “Afterward, he wanted to leave, but he was [...]

Why We Must Boycott the 2008 Summer Olympics

Jimmie | August 1, 2008 | Comments (0)

If you won’t agree that we should boycott the coming Olympic Games because the Chinese government is a bunch of despicable tyrants, maybe you’ll buy this: it’s a trap! What? You don’t think they’ve been doing nothing for a couple thousand years, do you? (via Hot Air)

John McCain Has a Small Government Track Record? Who Knew?

Jimmie | May 7, 2008 | Comments (0)

One of the great things about blogging, at least on the right, is that you can heartily agree with someone one hour and bitterly disagree with them the next. As much as I often agree with Ed Morrissey, I’m afraid on the subject of John McCain and his storied anger, we’re going to bitterly disagree. [...]
