A One-Way Ticket to Des Moines …

. . . would cost $249 if I booked today for an Aug. 3 departure from Reagan National in D.C. You may ask, “Why Iowa? Why Aug. 3? Why a one-way ticket?” Here’s the story at The American Spectator: Atlanta businessman Herman Cain will begin a nine-day bus tour of Iowa next week, leading up […]

Wishful Thinking On The Left

From Think Progress: This study only looked at events organized by Americans for Prosperity or Tea Party Patriots and their affiliates — other Tea Party groups’ event numbers were not […]

Zilla Wins the Internet

Over the weekend I did a post about Zilla’s fundraiser to avert doom. Thanks to your help, doom was averted and now — shades of Russ Emerson — Zilla is under assault by the sub-humans at Democrat Underground who call her (among much else) “a far-right racist . . . bigotbot who ran smear campaigns […]

We recently passed the four-month anniversary of “Operation Odyssey Dawn,” the U.S.-led air assault on Moammar Qaddafi’s regime. Now, 128 […]

More Honest and Interesting Than Whatever Obama’s Gonna Say on TV

Because I refuse to watch Obama’s phony primetime TV speech, and figure you don’t want to watch it either, here’s a three-minute video press release about a proposed independent conservative film: They’re trying to raise $130,000 to turn that into a movie, so go check ’em out and see what you think. Whatever you do, […]

Spooky Kabuki: More Free Primetime TV for the Summer Bummer Obama Drama

The World’s Least Plausible Reality Show continues: Mr Obama will address the nation tonight at 9pm Eastern Time and U.S. leaders are trying to reassure jittery investors as Wall Street markets closed down and global indexes wobbled today.
