… but, what the hell, this made me giggle in a most unseemly manner … I’ll repent tomorrow.

Free Scott Walker!
Open thread to either celebrate an American spring or mourn the death of the world’s last great hope. And no, I don’t think I’m overstating things here. update: Live stream.
“Poll: 24 Percent of Americans Believe States Have a Right to Secede”
Up 10% in two years — and yet still 76% too low, if you ask me. But then, I’m one of them fringe types who doesn’t like to feel trapped in perpetuity by a central government that can control me simply by conning and/or bribing 50.1% of the population (or getting just enough electoral votes, whichever obtains). CNS: The latest poll is just one of many that shows that Americans
Dear Romney apologists and supporters:
You got played. Really, really played. And we’re all going to suffer for your party loyalty no matter the outcome of the 2012 vote — be it overwhelmingly and radically through Obama’s re-election, or slowly and techocratically through the the GOP establishment’s steady transformation into the pre-New Left Democratic Party. Congrats! Sincerely, Those who don’t believe in a ruling class, and who don’t take kindly to being treated as subjects
“CBO: Massive rise in U.S. debt crashes our economic forecasting model in 2035”
I remember Paul Ryan saying something like this, and the helpful lefty economists pointing out how such a silly, alarmist forecast didn’t account for whatever magical thinking the extremist Keynesians were engaging in at the time whereby everything is fiscally fine, Social Security isn’t insolvent, debt isn’t anything to worry about, the Constitution is a dated document of perverse anti-fairness coerciveness we no longer should be clinging to, and besides,
“Wisconsin: Liberals Hold Mass Séance To Cleanse Capitol of Negative Energy Before Recall Election…”
That’s the good news. The bad news is, Bill Maher is going to have to make another movie. Or else explain to all of us how believing in a deity is batshit crazy, but attempting to build a karmic energy field to control voting outcomes is all part of that famed liberal devotion to SCIENCE! Oh. And if it doesn’t work — and Walker prevails (despite being so terribly terribly
“WHITE HOUSE INSIDER: Barack Obama’s High Tech Snuff Films”
Dude. Believe it, don’t believe it, kinda believe it. Your call. I’m just the (thirdhand) messenger. Me? Well, let’s just say you can go ahead and call me “racist” right now.
I stand with Ali
The Kimberlin people are at it again — using real world intimidation tactics to try to silence bloggers who presume to shine the light on their tax-exempt, celebrity-and-progressive-driven political (and highly politicized) gravy train. This time the target is Ali Akbar, National Bloggers Club President. Now, I know Ace has called for a National Blogger’s Day of Silence on Friday, and I can appreciate the idea and its motivation. But
Art must remain private – otherwise an artist is just a public accommodation [Darleen Click]
Which is what the New Mexico Court of Appeals is declaring in their ruling against Elane Photography. So the New Mexico Court of Appeals held last week in the long-pending Elane Photography v. Willock (N.M. Ct. App. May 31, 2012). The court began by holding that the state law that bans sexual orientation discrimination in places of public accommodation applies to professional wedding photographers’ decisions not to photograph same-sex commitment
