The chickens, they’ll be coming home to roost, legacy media.   From the UK Mail: Trayvon Martin may have attacked a Neighborhood Watch captain before the man shot dead the unarmed teen in a gated community in Florida, an anonymous witness who spoke to police claimed yesterday. The witness, known only as John, told Sanford police that he saw Martin on top of George Zimmerman shortly before the fatal shot

Lynch the (half) Beaner! The Left’s longed-for race war / class war appears to be heading for a jump start ahead of those planned summer OWS protests.   Only it could be a war that pits Blacks against Hispanics — all because this puffy Zimmerman character didn’t have the good sense to have a name that sounds, to those eager to push certain narratives, half Peruvian rather than quite white and

CNS: Landmark Legal Foundation sent a letteron Friday to the Treasury Department’s Inspector General for Tax Administration requesting an investigation to determine whether officials with the Internal Revenue Service have engaged in misconduct in dealing with applications from Tea Party groups seeking tax-exempt status under section 501 (c) (3) of the Internal Revenue Code. “Landmark Legal Foundation requests an immediate investigation into possible misconduct by the Internal Revenue Service’s Exempt

It’s come to this. Evidently, politics is no place for beliefs.  Win or go home.  Results matter! — So long as you don’t go tampering with the conditions for achieving those results by insisting on new parameters for deciding them — like, for instance, the introduction of a clear constitutional vision and a return to the foundational ideas for this country. Now.  Fall in line, purists.  You’re fucking it up

Good catch from Squid, who — in reacting to Mitt Romney’s latest attempt to sound the conservative clarion call, this time with respect to a repeal of ObamaCare — notes the following, pulled from Romney’s op-ed: My program begins by taking seriously the words of the 10th Amendment to the Constitution: “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are

My son woke me up very early this morning with a high fever — I had to stay up and keep cold compresses on his head until he was sufficiently cooled — so I doubt I’ll be posting much today. While I’m awake here, though, let me address a particular commenter who has, time and again, expressed his very obvious displeasure with my posts taking both Mitt Romney the candidate

— His current 2012 views (like Obama’s, and lately Chu’s) evincing both his pragmatism and his flexibility, I guess. Per TNR: Befitting his profile as a moderate Republican who cared about the environment, Governor Romney responded [in 2006 – ed]to price spikes by describing them as the natural result of global market pressures and by calling for increases in fuel efficiency — the same approach that he now derides Obama

I know, I know: all the discussion on this site about how language and intepretation works, or are asserted to work, is “fundamentally unserious.” After all, we have a member of Team R to get into office, so that he can get to work diluting heavily concentrated progressive initiatives with some of the GOP’s patented compassionate conservatism (which consists largely of accepting the left’s narrative frames, then working to show

I’m not sure what’s worse here: that the GOP’s “inevitable” candidate, touted by the GOP establishment and their lapdogs for his “electability,” is now on record as praising the economic portion Bush presidency; or that he is now on record as claiming that it was TARP — supported by Obama and rejected by conservatives — that saved us from a depression. — Which, I guess once you’ve decided that we’re
