Attagirl, Michelle! Malkin Endorses Tancredo for Colorado Governor

A thing of beauty is a joy forever: The GOP gubernatorial candidate in Colorado, Dan Maes, is now in full meltdown mode. . . . Republican primary voters were forced to choose between entrenched, ethics-challenged establishment candidate Scott McInnis and untested businessman Maes. GOP voters made the right choice given the options at the time. […]

America: Let’s Make Bill Maher Cry!

This is simply beyond description: “I am not here to carry water for this or any administration, but the facts of the coming election are Democrats have real accomplishments to run on. . . . [W]hen it comes to voting, when we only have two choices, you got to grow up and realize there’s a […]

One Bright Ray Amid the Gloom

Regular readers are by now aware that (a) my friends got invited to speak at Smart Girl Summit while I did not, and (b) the blog went kablooey today. Things have been going from bad to worse ever since that deer killed my car, and the situation now seems so impossibly hopeless that all I can […]

There’s Crazy, and Then There’s Crazy

‘Levi Johnston’s Blues’

They Said It Couldn’t Be Done . . .

. . . which is the kind of double-dog-dare-ya thing you should never say to me. Ladies and gentlemen, the Tweet Heard ‘Round the World: My response was appropriately dignified: How long has this been my goal? Remember, this all started when Alyssa Milano re-Tweeted a post by Mickey Kaus last October. At that time, she had […]

Awesome! Ace of Spades Gets in Touch With His Inner Social Conservative

Admittedly, a social conservative famous for slinging f-bombs and sodomy jokes, but a social conservative nonetheless: This was just evil for evil’s sake. She wanted to be even more famous than she is (and she is already quite a bit more famous than her present, but very limited, talents would recommend), and she decided to […]

The Great RINO Rip-Off: Murkowski Uses GOP Money to Hire Democrat Staffers

Many who have criticized the stance of Dan Riehl, Marc Levin and myself against Mike Castle in Delaware have accused us of being “purists” or striking what they call a “True Conservative” posture. We are, our critics imply, attempting to position ourselves as Commissars of Conservative Correctness and boss other people around. Messrs. Riehl and Levin can […]
