Important Points About The ‘One Nation’ Rally Overlooked By Many

by Smitty The rally was a modern art statement in litter. Conservatives hate art, which is why they don’t understand the important expression on display. The rally was economic stimulus in litter. It was crucial that the attendees generate work for other people. Found in the clutter: a handmade sign “Bite Us, Frédéric Bastiat” (I […]

How Dare You?

One of the trademark reflexes of organized liberalism is the tendency of its adherents to respond to critics in outraged tones of self-righteous indignation: “How dare you . . .?” Thus, when it was suggested during the Bush presidency that liberals seemed more concerned with defeating Republicans than defeating terrorists, the response was: How dare you question our […]

Moral Vacuum Strangely Empty Of Moral Understanding

by Smitty Ned Resnikoff at Salon trolls beautifully: “The non-existent moral case for tax cuts” Sure, the right will rend their garments over the Laffer curve and supply-side economics, but there’s a much simpler argument hiding behind the line graphs.

Do You Share My View That Cohen’s Ideas Are Symptomatic Of Why Progressivism Must Be Utterly Rejected?

by Smitty (h/t HotAir) I wish good health and long life to Richard Cohen. Let’s start off in a positive vein, as, turning to the risible pile of false ideas he served up in Tuesday’s WaPo, the opening sentence represents the nicest part of this post. The title refers to the survey in the right […]

All it takes is a click on a Web site to sign up for the Democracy For America (DFA) list that sends e-mails like this to your inbox: Robert – Have you watched cable news lately? The Tea Baggers are everywhere! The Tea Party is news because they’ve won a few upset primaries — but […]

Expect A Typically Torpid Tea Party Take On That

by Smitty Uncoverage has an important post concerning our Progressive Overlords and the shiny new ways they will offer for us all to help with the financial crisis: “Obama Administration Begins the “Grab” for Private Retirement Accounts“.
