… what with Barry’s lesbian-oral-sex joke about Michelle going viral … Of course, the CNN bimbette here is absolutely desperate to spin this as Barack being “blindsided” by the reaction to his “scripted” comment. Yes, really.

What’s so New about the New Party?
Well, evidence of Barack Obama’s membership in the Chicago chapter, for starters. Honestly: how much longer must we pretend that only the fringe conspiracy lunatics of the “far right” have ever believed Obama to be a Marxist socialist — a stance adopted by Republican pragmatists to avoid the ridicule of other Marxist socialists looking to hide just who and what they are? Stanley Kurtz: On the evening of January 11,

“Dershowitz: Zimmerman Prosecutor Threatening to Sue Harvard for My Criticism”
I ask you all to remember again that this woman is a Republican, and that in fact this entire prosecution has been driven by Republican officials looking to burnish their racial bona fides to avoid the predictable charges of racism that slip profitably from the mouths of “civil rights” leaders like, eg., Al Sharpton, or race-baiting politicians like our current President. That is, I ask you all to remember that

“Senator Asks DOJ to Investigate SWAT-ting Attacks on Conservative Bloggers”
Rage, rage, against the dying of the light! ABC News: A number of conservative bloggers allege they have been targeted through the use of harassment tactics such as SWAT-ting (fooling 911 operators into sending emergency teams to their homes), in retaliation for posts they have written, and now Sen. Saxby Chambliss, R-Ga., has stepped into the matter. He has sent a letter to Attorney General Eric Holder urging him to

“We have evolved to need coercion.” [Darleen Click]
When science stops telling us the facts and steps into politics: The food industry has made a fortune because we retain Stone Age bodies that crave sugar but live in a Space Age world in which sugar is cheap and plentiful. Sip by sip and nibble by nibble, more of us gain weight because we can’t control normal, deeply rooted urges for a valuable, tasty and once limited resource. What

Addendum to the bigoted Jesus-loving photographer who tried to justify the bigotry of not allowing a truly committed lesbian couple to own her for a few hours
In the progressive Utopian re-imagining of the United States, the First Amendment generally, and religious freedom especially, is truly secondary to the kind of “tolerance we” must all of us perforce adopt. Or else. Sure, that kind of turns the notion of tolerance on its head — as well as inverts the intention of the First Amendment, which was adopted to protect unpopular speech — but hey: the ends justify

“5 possible summer surprises from Obama”
Shockingly, not one of them has him officially coming out and running off with Matthew Broderick to start a Broadway-themed candy store in Vermont. Which, now that I think on it, probably won’t happen until 2013. In the spring. When the earth awakes and hope and change intoxicate the senses.

what the Walker win tells us about the political mood of the nation going forward
Nothing. Now shut up and pay your fair share so that public sector union employees don’t have to. Racists. **** update: line of the night goes to BMoe, who answers the progressive talking point “explaining” their loss: “Makes me nostalgic for the good old days of 2008 when raising more money than you opponent proved how popular you were.” I should add that owning the entirety of the press

Ok, really, I know, gloating is just wrong … [Darleen Click]
… but, what the hell, this made me giggle in a most unseemly manner … I’ll repent tomorrow.
