The Constitutional Delusions of Sirota’s Mind

by Smitty David Sirota, emphasis mine: Paige says Colorado Springs attracts new residents and economic growth “by actually putting America’s limited government ideals into practice.” In this, he asks us to forget that one of the city’s biggest employers is the defense industry – that is, an industry that has absolutely nothing to do with […]

Fear and Loathing in Talapoosa County

DADEVILLE, Ala. — Rumors that I have absconded or been kidnapped during my Alabama expedition continue to roil the blogosphere.

The Colts have Peyton Manning. The veteran quarterback will make the difference. Who dat going to stomp the Saints? […]
