#OccupyResoluteDesk Meets Strongest Allies. Someone Named ‘Abovetheirweight’ Hardest Hit.

by Smitty Smart diplomacy’s real reset button: via the whole blogosphere, most recently Fausta. Update: linked by Daily Pundit, Best Social Program, and that TrogloPundit, who sees a job opportunity. Working for #OccupyResoluteDesk. Now that is a below-the-bog level of shamelessness.

Since You Asked, Mr. Quick. . .

by Smitty Your bait post is noted, and your attention is drawn to what RSM had to say two days ago about the hypothetical corporate ‘we’ choosing Romney in November: “Rick Santorum went crazy on Mitt “Etch-a-Sketch” Romney, saying Mitt might be worse than Obama.“ So, while in the tank, I think that shows RSM’s […]

Lisa Graas: Santorum’s Secret Weapon

Louisiana Santorum volunteer David with Lisa Graas in Central, La., March 24, 2012 CENTRAL, Louisiana Mitt Romney’s got the big money and the big endorsements, but Rick Santorum has Lisa Graas who — with 6,835 Twitter followers and about 1,500 Facebook friends — has been a sort of social-media equalizer, helping lead an amazingly effective […]

You’ve Got To Admire Gay Patriot, If Not Agree On Everything

by Smitty This stuffy, old-fashioned, hidebound, social conservative blog would like to offer a round of applause for Gay Patriot: There seems to be a pattern among gay activists and their supporters in the legacy media, to define as “hatred” any opposition to their views on homosexuality. Now, I do not share Kirk Cameron’s view […]

The also sponsor events such as BlogCon, in a successful (with the glaring, occasionally caustic exception of Stacy McCain ;)) effort to […]

Troglopundit’s New Hairstyle

by Smitty It’s really not good form for men to pay any heed to each others’ personal appearance. If a fellow is dressed dorkishly, well, that’s on him. But, at times, a line is crossed; a boundary violated; common sense tarnished, and we are forced to confront the question: what went wrong?

Is Jennifer Rubin’s Unrequited Affection For Dan Riehl Giving Way To An Ace of Spades Fixation?

by Smitty Dan Riehl has just never been a productive social outlet for Jennifer Rubin, tempting comparison with Stacy McCain’s efforts in the direction of a certain activist who will remain unmaimed by this post. But are the tides turning? Can enough spectacularly bad feedback do for Jennifer Rubin what polls cannot for #OccupyResoluteDesk, i.e., […]

Not The Good Kind Of Twitchy

by Smitty Information wants to be free, and anthropomorphised. Via Twitchy comes the reminder that unintended, misanthropic consequences could well result. That sort of unwholesome twitchiness is the kind of thing for which I have insufficient brain bleach to go anywhere near in a blog post. Gaaaah!
