Gateway Pundit Calls It Like He Sees It About The Media Vs. Michele Bachmann

by Smitty Thanks, Jim Hoft: The media has yet to uncover Barack Obama’s college transcripts, but they are already questioning Michele Bachmann’s record as a foster parent. It’s all about speaking truth to power, where ‘truth’ is drivel and ‘power’ means whoever the owner of the media dogs has directed these rabid bitches to attack, […]

Right Online: Herman Cain Gets Candid

MINNEAPOLIS — About 15 bloggers got a rare glimpse at an angry Herman Cain, when the Republican presidential candidate’s temper flared briefly during an informal press conference Saturday.

The other 98%, perhaps not so much. Check […]

Walter Russel Mead On Hypothetically
Un-jumping A Shark

by Smitty From “Can This Presidency Be Saved?”, emphasis mine: President Obama still has a shot at convincing voters that the GOP would make things worse, but his administration has not just lost control over the direction of the economy. It has lost control of the discussion about the economy. With a maximally bloody-minded view, […]

VIDEO: Stephen Bannon, Director of Palin Documentary ‘The Undefeated’

MINNEAPOLIS By now, you’ve heard the amazing buzz about The Undefeated, the new documentary about Sarah Palin. There was a special screen last night at the Right Online conference.

Editorial Peeves: Redundancies

by Smitty Allahpundit is a great blogger, but “Video: Sign the petition to ban job-killing ATM machines” tramples a peeve of mine. If you decode the acronym, you now have ‘automated teller machine machines’. Similarly, the new military ID is a Common Access Card, or CAC. As you might expect, people call it a CAC […]
