It’s been said before — quite often here, in fact, by yours truly, who has taken pains to dissect the phenomenon rigorously (conclusion? stuck up, unserious coozes, the lot of ’em!) — but as I’m busy just now learning how to fashion makeshift bombs out of old wireframe glasses, ammonia, compost, and some of my son’s battery-operated Thomas the Train engines, I’ll let Pam Meister hammer home the point one

Jesus, conservatives. Can’t you find any new Negroes to trot out — you know, brothers with some flash? Or is it always to be blingless Toms like Mr Sowell?: ACORN is not just an organization on the left. In addition to the voter frauds that ACORN has been involved in over the years, it is an organization with a history of thuggery, including going to bankers’ homes to harass them

From Bob Owens, writing for Pajamas Media — who may or may not have provided him with press credentials, and one of those really boss cardboard microphone wraparounds. As you’ll recall, Grathwohl spoke of the Weathermen’s plans for a revolution / re-education / extermination agenda in a 1982 documentary, an excerpt from which I posted here. A few notable exchanges: Pajamas Media: You stated in your interview in No Place

From the Weekly Standard: It’s my sad duty to report that our good friend and valued contributor Dean Barnett passed away today. He was a remarkable man–principled, witty, and to all of us, a model of grace and courage. We mourn his passing and cherish his memory. –William Kristol He was only 41.

I’d like to think this piece by the Philadelphia Inquirer’s Jonathan Valania is a kind of “Modest Proposal” for the “post-racial” age. But alas, bits like this leave me believing otherwise: I give you Exhibit A: The last eight years. In 2000, Bush-Cheney stole the election, got us attacked, and then got us into two no-exit wars. Four years later, white people reelected them. Is not the repetition of the

Happyfeet and I both linked this earlier today, but it deserves its own post. Consider this that. From the WSJ, “Justice and Vote Fraud”: We’ve all read a lot about the “politicization” of the Justice Department in recent years, and that political pounding is having an ironic effect. The prosecutors who are supposed to guard against voter fraud don’t seem very interested in running the political risk of doing their

Or, as Obama supporters like to call them, RACIST SMEARS IN THE FORM OF XENOPHOBIC, ANTIESTABLISHMENTARIANIST “HYPOTHETICALS”. This one simple account does so much to unravel Obama’s web of lies about his knowledge of the views of those with whom he routinely associated that it is essential, in the eyes of many in the mainstream press, that it be, if not surpressed, than deemed un-newsworthy. Quite a stretch, that, when

Former White House and Pentagon official Douglas MacKinnon, Baltimore Sun: As the candidates and the chattering class point fingers of blame with regard to the financial meltdown and whose economic plan will be better for “Joe the plumber,” Pakistan – with its nuclear arsenal – is on the verge of implosion. Beyond that, a secret report detailed in a London newspaper this month warned that the terrorist threat facing Britain

From the AP: A Halloween decoration showing a mannequin dressed as vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin hanging by a noose from the roof of a West Hollywood home is drawing giggles from some passers-by and gasps of outrage from others. The mannequin is dressed in brunet wig, glasses and a red business suit. Another mannequin dressed as John McCain emerges from a flaming chimney. Chad Michael Morisette, who lives in
