The Other McCain

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

Announcement: S.A.L.V.E.

by Smitty Shameless Acts of Literary Vandalism and Entertainment is surely the Publishing Event of June 19, 2012! Collected in one tidy package, and available just in time for West Virginia Day, you can now spare yourself the toil of navigating to 45 different URLs, and instead have a handsome, consolidated unit for your entertainment […]

Yes, Dan Riehl: Slavery. To Materialism!

by Smitty Dan Riehl brings some dainty new footwear to the discussion. However, we need to dig a little deeper here. The message may not be limited to simple 19thcentury bondage. No. As Lawrence O’Donnell (my intellectual guide) points out, we’re all socialists now: This new line of footwear clearly underscores the American enslavement to […]

Norquist And His Pesky Pledge

by Smitty [Clip below the fold, to preclude auto-play disaster.] A few notes: The Left cannot make a positive point. The caller has to insinuate that there is evil afoot when influence and money are used to constrain Leviathan. I’ll bet the beverage of your choice that the caller is some civil servant, GS-14 or […]

The Lonely Conservative Completely Wrecked My Morning

by Smitty What sort of random joy in brutality would lead you to use words like Eric Holder and Supreme Court Justice in the same sentence? That’s just wrong. R – O – N – N – G – G. Holder is packin’ less gear than either Sotomayor and Kagan. The thought of those two […]

@AceOfSpadesHQ BREAKS SILENCE: #BrettKimberlin’s Escalating Threat

“Quo usque tandem abutere, Catilina, patientia nostra? quam diu etiam furor iste tuus nos eludet? quem ad finem sese effrenata iactabit audacia? . . . Patere tua consilia non sentis, constrictam iam horum omnium scientia teneri coniurationem tuam non vides? O tempora, o mores! Senatus haec intellegit. Consul videt; hic tamen vivit.” — Marcus Tullius […]

Hammurabi Rides Reborn

by Smitty Hammurabi Rides Reborn Hammurabi rides reborn, (So-and-so’s a right blackguard!) Though I’m not privy to facts, In each personal regard. The sudden onslaught of scorn, Moves me to poetic wax. As though by mere spoken word, I could halt the lame attacks, That email and tweet adorn. Historical knives in backs, Are unstabbed […]

American Glob Misses The Point

by Smitty “A MODEST PROPOSAL: Liberals Should Start Their Own Country” doesn’t understand the fundamental premise of modern liberalism. That is, Modern Liberalism is an alliance of the Pointy Haired Boss and Wally against Dilbert and Alice. It is the well-heeled loudmouths teaming up with the slackers to mooch off of the productive. There is […]

Let Them Eat Cake With Anna Wintour

by Smitty via American Power Meanwhile, Bluegrass Pundit cites The Examiner on the fear setting in amongst the Democrat Party on the likelihood of #OccupyResoluteDesk winning re-election: Added Democratic strategist Doug Schoen, “It’s gone from ‘We expect he’ll be re-elected’ to ‘We think he’ll be re-elected’ to ‘We hope he’ll be re-elected’ to ‘He’ll probably […]
