I just put up my flag this morning. My gratitude, thoughts and prayers to all the members of our military, past and present, and their families. UPDATE Nice Deb has a great series of videos in honor and tribute to the day.

SWATting the Ericksons — just another Brett Kimberlin coincidence? [Darleen Click]
We report, You decide Last week we spent a lot of time writing about Brett Kimberlin and the incident involving blogger Patterico where someone spoofed his phone number and told 911 he had shot his wife. Tonight, my family was sitting around the kitchen table eating dinner when sheriffs deputies pulled up in the driveway. Someone called 911 from my address claiming there had been an accidental shooting. It wasn’t

Guns!
A (semi) ubiquitous topic here, but I’m in the market for a concealed carry handgun — and one for my wife, as well — and am open to suggestions / favorites. Also, has anybody yet fired the Kel-tec KSG? I’m probably going to pick that up as soon as I can find it unless I hear really bad things about it from people here I trust on such matters. That

Time to show the math [Darleen Click] UPDATED
From Political Math UPDATE from WaPo After all, if Romney’s record in private equity is fair game, then so is Obama’s record in public equity — and that record is not pretty. Since taking office, Obama has invested billions of taxpayer dollars in private businesses, including as part of his stimulus spending bill. Many of those investments have turned out to be unmitigated disasters — leaving in their wake bankruptcies,

21st century housekeeping
I meant to post about the Obama fulfilled promise of “necessarily skyrocketing” electricity prices the other day but I got sidetracked by a delightfully vocal baby given to exploring his emotional range — largely through incessant incessant crying. I forgive him, though. He’s at that age. At any rate, Doug Ross already put together a nice post on the subject, so it’s probably best I just link his work and

I think I was meant to be intimidated [updated]
Breitbartunmask — who (some assert) is the secret Twitter handle of Speedway Bomber Brett Kimberlin — sent me the following note the other day, right after I noted publicly here that of course I support the effort to end the lawfare and intimidation campaign against free speech he and his cohort have launched against conservative bloggers, and that I’m happy to shine a light on the way the institutional left

Free Speech Blogburst — Brett Kimberlin edition [Darleen Click]
Joining with Michelle Malkin, RSM, William Jacobson, Patterico and others to expose the kind of ruthless and dangerous lengths the anti-American Left will go to to silence dissent. Patterico’s tale makes perfect sense of RS McCain’s moving his family. When I opened the door, deputies pointed guns at me and ordered me to put my hands in the air. I had a cell phone in my hand. Fortunately, they did

Jennifer Granholm: The majority of Americans are really un-American bastards who should be shot for treason [Darleen Click]
Voter suppression laws (sic), overzealous filibuster use, you name it — the Republicans use every tactic they can to stop our democracy from actually selecting the person with the most support. 72% of likely voters support Voter ID laws. You know, that choice Granholm mendaciously bleats about. Granholm is a jack-booted enforcer for voter-fraud, for the diluting the vote of by-any-means-necessary of Americans who refuse the sweet, sweet clutches of
