Long version: Yes, yesterday we did indeed have “yet another” (so statesmanlike, President O!) mass shooting, this time inside DC, and inside a government facility. And yes, rifles were involved, Senator Feinstein, purchased legally, apparently. Too, it’s true, Mr Frum, that Second Amendment absolutists believe — unironically, to your evident amusement — that law abiding gun owners are law abiding gun owners taking responsibility for their own protection and the

Dianne Feinstein (Fascist – CA) uses DC massacre to demand gun-grabbing [Darleen Click]
Dianne’s demagoguery Sen. Dianne Feinstein, one of the Senate’s leading voices on gun control, called for stricter gun laws in the aftermath of Monday’s killings at Washington’s Navy Yard. The California Democrat said the deaths of the 12 people Monday were at the hands of a man armed with an AR-15, a shotgun, and a semiautomatic handgun, although details of his weapons have not been confirmed. Her statement reads in

Miss David Brooks does not like the crease in Ted Cruz’s pants [Darleen Click]
Sniff What’s going on in the House, and a bit in the Senate, too, is what you might call the rise of Ted Cruz-ism. And Ted Cruz, the senator from Canada through Texas, is basically not a legislator in the normal sense, doesn’t have an idea that he’s going to Congress to create coalitions, make alliances, and he is going to pass a lot of legislation. He’s going in more

Putin reels in 172 pound flounderer [Darleen Click]
Heh. GENEVA — The United States and Russia agreed Saturday on an outline for the identification and seizure of Syrian chemical weapons and said Syria must turn over an accounting of its arsenal within a week. […] Senior administration officials had said Friday the Obama administration would not press for U.N. authorization to use force against Syria if it reneges on any agreement to give up its chemical weapons. The

That “unbelievably small” effort in Syria … [Darleen Click]
… is, of course, never to involve “boots on the ground.” Right? The White House and the Pentagon have repeatedly ruled out “boots on the ground” in Syria, but Defense Department officials were less certain Thursday on whether U.S. military personnel might be sent to help secure or destroy Syria’s chemical weapons. Pentagon Press Secretary George Little gave a vague answer when asked if U.S. troops were prepared to assist

Water water everywhere, and not a drop to drink
The supreme irony of flood waters taking out water lines and making usable water unavailable is not lost on me. Fortunately, as a proud knuckledragging member of Crackerado’s prepper contingency, I think I have a 4-pack of San Pellegrino left over from one of the “demean the darkies” TEA Party meetings we held at my house recently. So I’m good.

“Indiana case may become Big Labor’s newest weapon”
Fundamental transformation, aided by robed philosopher kings whose word is law. Like Gods! But hey, stop pushing those Levin liberty amendments, Hobbity Visigoths. Or bringing up federalism or amendment conventions. Those are just kooky throwback Klansman wetdreams, the very terms larded with unhelpful historical baggage — and worse, they are likely to frighten off the moderates and independents that, starting with McCain’s victory and culminating in the Romney presidency, keep

Speaking of conservative victimology over phony cries of religious oppression
— because let’s face it, that’s how the liberals sell it, and more and more, “sophisticated” Republicans who claim to be conservative scoff right along with the left — here’s another example of whining by some orthodox religious kook upset that he wasn’t permitted to wear his kippah in court: A Jewish man was barred from participating in his own trial after a circuit court judge removed him from the
