The Other McCain

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

It’s Hereditary

My 18-year-old twin sons, Jim and Bob: They’re high school seniors. And natural-born ladykillers, of course. You really ought to hit my tip jar for raising such fine young men. Jim on Facebook. Bob on Facebook. Warning, girls: Mrs. Other McCain is fiercely protective.

The ‘Shipping Jobs Overseas’ Smear

When I came home from my recent nine-day road trip, I found this piece of mail on the dining room table: So I picked up the telephone, interviewed Neil Parrott and filed my latest American Spectator column: HAGERSTOWN, Maryland — Neil Parrott admits he was “very surprised” to find himself accused of supporting “tax breaks […]

She Gets It From Her Mom

The cuteness, I mean: That’s younger daughter Reagan at her older sister Kennedy’s wedding this summer. We are not only a good-looking family, but also well-armed.

Because Today Is My Birthday . . .

. . . I’m up for suggestions on how it should be celebrated. My own suggestion is that you should hit the tip jar, of course. I’m hoping to go to Delaware on Thursday to cover Al Franken’s campaign appearance for Baldy the Tax-Hiking Wanker.  Also, I’d like to go to Richmond for the Virginia […]

Great: Barack Obama and Nancy Pelosi Have Screwed Up My Last Day in L.A.

WOODLAND HILLS, Calif. — My plans were all set: I’d drop by Pamela Geller’s 7 p.m. event on Sepulveda Boulevard, get some quick pictures, jump in the rental car, hustle down to LAX and return the car, and still leave myself plenty of time to catch the red-eye flight back home. What could possibly go wrong? […]
