ELLI PEARSON: Well, we were protesting together, and the riot cops came at us, and we linked arms and sat down peacefully to protest their presence on our campus. And at one point, they were -— we had encircled them, and they were trying to leave, and they were trying to clear a path. And so, we sat down, linked arms, and said that if they wanted to clear the

A more complete accounting of what Roddy introduced in the comments here. ZeroHedge: The sale “prompted concerns the debt crisis was even beginning to threaten Berlin on Wednesday, with the Bundesbank forced to buy large amounts of the bonds to ensure the auction did not fail. The low yields offered on the 10-year paper deterred investors from the auction, especially because of growing concerns over the cost to Germany of

Washington Examiner: Leaders of the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) last week officially endorsed President Obama for re-election in 2012. Endorsing a presidential candidate 11 months before the general election may seem a bit premature, but it’s not even the record for the earliest endorsements so far in this cycle. The National Education Association (NEA) endorsed Obama in July, 14 months before the voting. While these early endorsements highlight the

Sorry, I’ve got babies on the brain here of late. Whether you believe in a god or not is immaterial here: the fact that the code is so advanced that it can convince mathematicians of the existence of some necessary intelligent design can be just as likely a function of a human’s incapacity to comprehend the billions of years of selection, etc., as it is proof of directed design by

Well, she was wrong: for death panels to exist, what you’re deciding to kill off has to be something that’s alive to begin with. And that’s simply not the case when what you’re deciding upon is the fate of “units” rather than individual human beings. So there. Sure glad we made sure that stupid white trash bint was hectored off the national stage. I mean, c’mon: “death panels”? “Crony capitalism”

Gingrich: Did well, particularly in making the distinction between law enforcement / criminal prosecution and prosecuting war. Don’t agree with Dana Loesch that his immigration position as articulated tonight will hurt him too badly with conservatives. It was a common sense response to a long-term hypothetical. Having said that, he should have simply echoed Rick Perry and made it clear that unless and until the border is secure all the

Prediction: Ron Paul is against it.

It’s the new tone, you see. But before we get all outraged, remember: conservative women lose the right even to be called “women,” much less be treated as humans, once these harpies of false consciousness sell out their sex and decide that they, and not a cabal of politicized women’s studies academics who’ve claimed jurisdiction over the entirety of what comes to constitute authentic womanhood, are best able to decide

Climategate II: The Wrath of Con.

3 days left on the 50%-off pre-release sale for the Savage Strength Training System, which, for today only, includes a coaching walkthru DVD. This system was recommended to me by Ryan Pitts of StrongerGrip, whose equipment I highly recommend. I just bought my training system this morning. If any of you do so please let me know. I don’t get a kickback; but perhaps we can share results here on
