The Other McCain

"One should either write ruthlessly what one believes to be the truth, or else shut up." — Arthur Koestler

Ain’t I Done Told Ya So? (Part III)

We are shocked — shocked! — to discover liberals in the media hinting at future coverage about Mitt’s Mormonism: Panelist Jon Meacham asked whether any of the focus on Romney’s “secrecy” may have something to do with his faith, Mormonism, a religion shrouded in mystery for many non-Mormons. “Is this code for the secrecy of […]

‘I Believed at the Time That the Documents Were Genuine and I’ve Never Ceased Believing That They Are Genuine’

Dan Rather still refuses to accept the truth that he was bamboozled by Bill Burkett and, with characteristic narcissism, offers his own belief in the authenticity of the Texas Air National Guard document as evidence of their actual authenticity, saying in effect: “If I, Dan Rather, believed they were authentic, therefore they must be authentic.” […]

RAAAAACISM!

Just pre-empting the predicted liberal spin on this story: Obama applied for a position as an adjunct and wasn’t even considered. A few weeks later the law school got a phone call from the Board of Trustees telling them to find him an office, put him on the payroll, and give him a class to […]

Naomi Wolf: Don’t Think of a Scam

Katy Perry’s ‘glorification of violence’? Pop singers rarely show up on my radar. I’m more of a classic rock guy.

First in War, First in Peace, First on the List of Britain’s All-Time Enemies

The Brits acknowledge George Washington’s greatness: Our nation’s first president, who led the 13 colonies in the Revolution against England’s tyrannical rule, was picked by a wide margin in a National Army Museum in London poll as the greatest foe ever faced by Britain. Washington delivered one of “the most jarring defeat(s)” ever inflicted upon […]

#ObamaBookTitles

by Smitty Twitchy was so gracious as to pick up a few dozen great riffs, including some of my snarky-snark. As you might expect, it puts the ‘B’ in brutal. The Left has completely abandoned trying to get a word in edgewise. Mostly because they have precious little to say. Can Twitter help restore serious […]
