You know what today is, brother.  Come on—give us what we want, why don’t you –?

—I would, honestly.  But it turns out the little guy ate some bad pico de gallo with his lunchtime enchiladas and, after spending his entire afternoon on the crapper with an old plastic bucket by his feet, took off a few hours ago for Arizona, his plan being to hitch-hike to Douglas and join up with a Minutemen encampment along the border. Which to some of you might seem laudable

Same-sex marriage, civil unions, and the resurgence of the semantic distinction

While his column is primarily interested in examining how elites in the press manufacture news to conform to progressive dogma, Thomas Sowell’s “All the ‘News’?” reinforces an important point that I don’t think can be overstated by those who oppose same sex marriage on non-religious grounds—namely, that the problem is not so much with the arrangement as it is with the attempt by activists to forcibly broaden the definitions of

Got TiVO?  [Dan Collins]

HuffPo dissident Greg Gutfeld’s show is hated by all the right people.  I don’t receive television (because it’s mostly like arguing with alphie), so I can’t comment from firsthand experience, but it seems it might be worth a look.  At least according to two three-timing media slut Jim Treacher. Now that Wuzzie’s off the junk, he and Mrs. R are en fuego.  Will I get fired for saying en fuego? 

a half-hearted attempt to reaffirm my conservative bona fides, 11

Man, that Sean Hannity sure has a nice head of hair on him, doesn’t he?  And that chest!  Only a man fully committed to personal responsibility can be disciplined enough to fill out a Van Heusen poplin button down like that.  He must work out.  Like, lots.  God bless him.

The advance of the nannystate

The mass influx of west coasters to Colorado over the last decade or so is beginning to take its toll on statewide social policy —from the recent abomination of Amendment 41 (which was intended to “regulate” political activism, but has wound up making it impossible for government workers to give gifts to their grandchildren) to the push (yet again) by Democratic legislators to pass legislation that would turn all of

If You Can Stand It, One More Small Observation About Our Favorite Unhinged Lefty (CraigC)

There has been wall-to-wall commentary on Ms. Marcotte lately, and I can’t possibly follow it all, so if someone has already addressed this, I apologize. One thing I vow here and now–you motherfuckers who want to ban birth control will never sleep. I will fuck without making children day in and out and you will know it and you won’t be able to stop it. Toss and turn, you mean,

Mind Reader [Dan Collins]

From this article in the Guardian, scientists using new technology that gives real-time images of neural activity are able to monitor with some accuracy people’s intentions. Men everywhere are busted. In other positive news for women, soon men will have no excuse for not being able to read their minds.

Plot Summary, Little House in the Appalachians, episode 127 [Dan Collins]

Parson Edwards entices the Wild Girl of the Woods with food and captures her.  He and the help drag her home and forcibly scrub her clean.  They consider cutting off her hair, but Alice has an herbal remedy for “coot bugs”.  Annabelle tries to teach her to play with dolls and talk pretty.  They name her Lucy.  She resists being gussied up for church and tries to bolt for the

Another moment of unabashed pragmatism

I was just about to fetch David Mitchell’s Cloud Atlas from the study when I realized I was practically sitting on the remote.  So I decided to plow through a sixer of Guinness and watch a few episodes of “Freaks and Geeks,” instead.  No regrets so far, I’m happy to say.

Final Pwn3dagon 2 Coverage, for now [Dan Collins]

Television Presenter:  And I’m just being informed that there’s been a major break in the Pwn3dagon 2 case.  We’re going live to Bob Robertson outside of the Edwards compound.  Bob, can you hear me? Reporter:  Hi, Tom! Television Presenter:  Well, I understand there’s been some kind of resolution?
