The Other McCain

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

“Old Worn Out Suits And Shoes,
I Don’t Pay No Union Dues”

by Smitty Stacy already covered the delightful news about organized crime–I mean, UAW–getting told to twerk off in Chattanooga, TN by a vote of 712 to 626. The schadenfreude-licious fact missing from Stacy’s writeup is (emphasis mine) VW didn’t fight the UAW campaign, which may have cost as much as $5 million and lasted more […]

Yeah, I’m Sure @Denise_Richards Won’t Have Any Problems With This

Hmmm. @CharlieSheen's 24-year-old porn-star fiancee doesn't like being called "porn star"? http://t.co/J7VSj7fKhT — Robert Stacy McCain (@rsmccain) February 17, 2014 So, imagine you’re the ex-wife of Charlie Sheen, the mother of his two young daughters, and your ex-husband just announced plans to marry a 24-year-old performer known for her roles in such “adult” video productions […]

Venezuela: ‘The Government Is Taking Us into the Slaughterhouse’

In Hugo Chavez, the peasants at least had a demagogic “hero” they believed in. Chavez’s successor lacks that dictatorial charisma, and people are starting to notice that socialism sucks: Venezuelan opposition leader Leopoldo Lopez, the target of a police manhunt for allegedly inciting violence that left three dead at anti-government protests, said Sunday that he […]

Miracles Still Happen

Perhaps my method — relentless sarcasm — is not ideal, but somebody’s got to be Andy Sipowicz. Jesus gets to be the “Good Cop”: As a professor of English and women’s studies, on the track to becoming a tenured radical, I cared about morality, justice, and compassion. Fervent for the worldviews of Freud, Hegel, Marx, […]

Dissent Must Be Abolished!

Criticism, disagreement, doubt = HATE, says LGM's Lemiuex http://t.co/fVD0un41KO @AmPowerBlog @vermontaigne @darleenclick — Robert Stacy McCain (@rsmccain) February 16, 2014 Scott Lemieux (@LemieuxLGM) is a totalitarian commissar trapped in a college professor’s body. This phenomenon — trans-Stalinism — has become increasingly common in American academia over the past 30 years, as Marxist intellectuals strive to […]

About the @EllenPage #Lesbian Thing …

Found full text of Ellen Page's speech on @HRC Tumblr: http://t.co/ocbWxbkv2L It's pretty hard to make me cry but this did. #LoveIsLouder — Tippi McCullers (@ali_steventon) February 16, 2014 I already loved Ellen Page, and after that amazing speech I love her more! Congrats, @EllenPage! http://t.co/MiiGgEYOVW — Overstuffed Bookcase (@OverstuffedBook) February 16, 2014 While the […]

Workers 712, Union Thugs 626

Big Labor suffered a “devastating defeat” Friday when workers at a Volkswagen plant in Chattanooga voted against joining the UAW. This was a personal defeat for President Obama: President Barack Obama on Friday waded into a high-stakes union vote at Volkswagen AG’s plant in Tennessee, accusing Republican politicians who oppose unionization of being more concerned […]

Narcissism vs. Objectivity

Everything you need to know about the entitled mentality typical of Millennials can be explained by Christopher Lasch’s 1979 book The Culture of Narcissism. Lasch was a man of the Left and enthralled by Freudian categories, so conservative readers must be prepared to endure occasional jabs at “modern industrial capitalism” and references to obsolete psychoanalytic […]
