`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves Did gyre and gimble in the wabe: All mimsy were the borogoves, And the mome raths outgrabe. From the WSJ, “Obama Talks Nonsense on Tax Cuts”: Now we know: 95% of Americans will get a “tax cut” under Barack Obama after all. Those on the receiving end of a check will include the estimated 44% of Americans who will owe no federal income taxes

     “Damnit!” Kenny squealed, pulling his hand back from the hot plate. “I think I burned my fingers. Took the skin right off ’em. Quick, get me to a doctor, would ya?”      “Sure, stay calm. Where do you want to go? Urgent care? The ER? Or does it not matter?”      “Shit, man, I don’t know. Whoever gives the best treatment. I mean, I’ll be using your insurance, so money is not

Lipsticked pitbull goes after the soft meat of Biden’s retreating calves at today’s appearance in Reno: Two weeks from today, Americans will be asked to cast their vote for the next president of the United States. There’s no time to wait. Let’s get right to it. Did you hear what Senator Biden said at a fundraiser on Sunday? He guaranteed that if Barack Obama is elected, we’ll face an international

Dicentra and others take on Slate’s Jacob Weisberg — whose distrust of markets not named Whole Foods marks him as the perfect Obama low information voter. I don’t have much to add to what has already been written, except to note that Weisberg’s understanding of libertarianism seems to track directly with his understanding of most things. Which is to say, a mile wide and an inch deep — leading poor

Had Palin made Joe Biden’s gaffe, Rather notes, the mainstream press would on it like NYT reporters on a Trig Palin diaper. Video here: In related news, Hell freezes over — and Madonna trades in her spiked nipple cups for a nice, age-appropriate Martha Stewart pant suit. (h/t STACLU; see also, the New York Post)

The AP has the story. From what I can see, this appears to be an honest mistake — though the owner of the fish, a Barack supporter, using the fish’s name to sign up for a second phone line speaks to a certain curious mindset. Still, not much there there. Unless, of course, the fish happened to vote for McCain Palin. In which case one could expect Henry Waxman’s nostrils

In my post yesterday, I laid out, by way of a brief but broad historical overview, the reasons I believed that Colin Powell’s support for Barack Obama — the latest in a line of “realist” Republicans to endorse the left-most Senator in the US, a man who has proven ideological ties to radicals like Bill Ayers, Howard Zinn, Noam Chomsky, Bernardine Dohrne, et al — was unsurprising: first, because realpolitik,

I’ve already covered here at length Obama’s disturbing, anti-democratic attempt to game law reviews in an attempt to sway judicial rulings against the “individual rights” (plain text / intentional) interpretation of the Second Amendment. Following up on that, here is the text of an open letter to the nation’s hunters and sportsmen issued by Illinois State Rifle Association Executive Director Richard Pearson. All of the emphases will be mine: Fellow

Over a week now and still no response to my dozen or so queries. In fact, I still haven’t received notification of the account suspension. The one contact I do have at youtube, grove@youtube.com, has ignored my several emails asking to please be put in touch with anyone who might shed some light on my situation. I even included phone numbers and asked, if he’d prefer, for me to call
