I got a wonderful Valentines Day present for the California crew. Do you know that insane clown posse from out west? You should, one of them is going to be your President someday. Phil Angelides – Prime cover-upper in the investigation into the cause of the housing market crash. Kamala Harris – first pretty openly Marxist state attorney general Gavin Newsom – Rule of Law? We marry gay people whether

I’m currently reading Melanie Phillips’s The World Turned Upside Down: The Global Battle over God, Truth, and Power. Her thesis is not at all new to regular readers of protein wisdom; Jeff has repeatedly observed that “Black is white; Up is down; Potsie is the Fonz” and suchlike. So in quoting Philips’s book I’m not breaking any ground here, though it’s nice to see someone else independently come to the

Meh. Coincidence. Or, if you don’t buy that, definitive proof that SCIENCE is on the side of pro-choice. Either way, just noticing this so-called discrepancy marks you as a bitterclingery neanderthal who is anti- woman, anti- health, and anti- choice/freedom. — Which, speaking of discrepancies, reminds me: you shouldn’t make contraceptives an issue because 99% of all women in the US have used them. Which is why we need to

Meaning, he can’t possibly support a liberty agenda — and as a moral scold will take away your March Madness pools and your Fantasy Football leagues. After he’s done taking away your right to slide a jimmie on your whipstick. Or else it doesn’t mean any of that. There’s a difference between being a moral scold and being a dictator. Just as there’s a difference between agitating and advocating for

— this time from Rebecca Rast, who whines that there is very little difference between Republicans and Democrats in Congress: The gap of opposing viewpoints between Republicans and Democrats in Congress is closing. The fears of a Tea Party takeover in Congress from the 2010 elections are far gone, and in fact, should now be laughed at. Republicans had their opportunity, as the leading party in the U.S. House of

I demand HHS do something, somewhere, somehow that makes it a law that I receive free Chic-fil-A classic chicken sandwiches and waffle fries. Because so help me, if my wife makes me eat another goddamn “heart-healthy” Paprika cod fillet and endive salad dinner, I’ma shoot up a fucking Whole Foods, then use my Cold Steel San Mai to start cutting heads off of any dudes wearing sandals. And yes, Mr

Rasmussen: “52% Say It’s Better for GOP To Work With Obama Than Stand on Principle” The sheep are turning. Long live the King! (h/t JHo)

Money is no object! Particularly when it isn’t yours! And yet those with the Utopian impulse still seem mystified when their grand schemes crumble under the weight of both math and the individual’s refusal to be enslaved by the State. CNS News: There would be no consideration of cost effectiveness. That was the explicit condition that the Department of Health and Human Services imposed on the panel of scientists it

Two pieces on Santorum’s candidacy throw into relief the narrative being developed around his what is becoming a real and growing challenge to Mitt Romney’s campaign of inevitability. First is Byron York’s Washington Examiner piece, which attempts to strike a fair tone and largely succeeds. The thesis — that Santorum’s 18 point loss in Pennsylvania will have to be better explained eventually — is a solid one, and presents a

Judging by the comment left by “me” at 3:44 this am — yes, it used flowery language and odd sentence structure and other hallmarks of my infamous pseudo-intellectualism, but I assure you that I was at that moment dreaming about making out with an old Jr High crush named Mindy, not sneaking comments onto the site — pw as it stands is still not stable. I’m working with Pixy on
