Precisely what we at pw have been calling for when we speak of the next stage of the TEA Party revolution: a governor (or coalition of governors) willing to assert the authority of the office and represent the interests of the citizens of his or her state, even if doing so means defying the edicts of an imperial executive, and overreaching administrative state, and what has become a rogue, PC-ridden,

Next up, an exclusive with Tiger Beat, in which Obama gets free rein to rip Romney and Ryan on Medicare and Bain capital in exchange for the scoop on his first real kiss, and for finally revealing to the world who his favorite Jonas brother is! Jesus, what a sad nation we’ve become.

According to reader Danny B, Yahoo movies shows no result: …while MSN provides a broken link, with all the links to other movies in the result working just fine: Just a coincidence, probably. I mean, who would believe powerful internet media companies would sabotage their own search results to help a political candidate…?

Oh, the humanity! Quick, somebody have Oliver Willis drag his fat ass off the couch in the Media Matters break room and get to work debunking these ungrateful so-called former “soldiers,” many of whom I’m sure we’ll learn are rumored, say anonymous sources, to have drinking problems and to beat their wives regularly.  And even if they don’t, they’re thinking about it. That is, have him get to work on

Ron Wyden, March 2012, writing in the Huffington Post, “Preserving the Medicare Guarantee: Why I’ve Been Working with Paul Ryan”: I know that polls show that the majority of Americans like Medicare the way it is today.

Still, if this shooting turns out to be politically motivated, look for several liberals to distance themselves from the violence while noting that, though they abhor the action, they can nevertheless understand and sympathize with its motivation.  Hate needs to be stopped, you see. 

Looks like some racist judge loves him some poll taxes.  Because he’s racist.  And wants to disenfranchise the millions upon millions of people studies from “non-partisan” and “independent” leftwing groups have shown will lose their franchise if they are required to engage in the onerous, unfair, and frankly racisty, polltaxy indignation of having to show a photo ID proving that they are who they are should they wish to vote.

Mike Hendrix, being all unhelpful: Progressivism simply cannot be reconciled with an America whose people are citizens, not subjects. It is not compatible with individual liberty and unrestrained initiative. It is an ideology not of freedom, but of fetters. It is based not on self-determination, but on coercion and compliance. It is Obama, his halfwit lackey Biden, and their ideological confreres–not conservatives and libertarians–who seek to put us in chains.

We said good day, sir! — and we all know that this non-existent GOP establishment believes, if such a non-existent thing could be said to believe, in political “pragmatism,” to be distinguished from the “purist” idealism of the movement Hobbits who, let’s face
