Such is the title given Rebekah Rast’s piece for NetRightDaily — even though I suspect that there are those directing the EPA who know precisely what it is they’re doing, and precisely why they’re doing it.  So they aren’t really in the dark so much as promoting darkness. Rast: On Jan. 17, 2008, President Obama revealed to the San Francisco Chronicle what is finally becoming reality for America’s main energy

If we gain complete control of the legislative and executive branches why should we do anything but reward our friends and punish our foes?  What would Obama do? No, seriously.  Do we really think they’re going to learn a deep lesson by repeal? How about punish and then repeal? I’m not kidding.  This is their world.  They’re the fascist bastards dragging the rest of us into it.  Are they really

…if it weren’t the case that concerning ourselves with language — specifically, how it has been institutionally gamed to push the political needle leftward through linguistically incoherent foundational assumptions, rhetorical tyrannies, and hermeneutic Machiavellianism — wasn’t so pedantic, pseudo-intellectual, and “fundamentally unserious” an undertaking. Let the left play around with that inconsequential stuff.  We on the right can fund raise for the next GOPer in line like mutherfuckers! So.  Carry

American war vets?  Are nearly all either 1) homeless 2) suffering from debilitating PTSD and paranoid delusions about killing their families  3) in wheelchairs, embittered, wishing revenge on other American soldiers 4) otherwise homicidal, or 5) some combination of the above. — Except 6) those who profit off of the mayhem — become addicted to it, crave it, become sociopathic mercenaries, and take advantage of the psychicly wounded vets looking

I know, lots of women juggling work and family

Turns out some bullshit is even too bullshitty for the Bullshitter-in-Chief. — Who, to be fair, was in reality telling the truth, as noted here earlier this morning. It’s just that the truth he’s telling isn’t the same one that he’s hoping to sell, at least, not to the general electorate — too many of whom his campaign fears are still likely clinging to their guns and their religion, things

You can keep hoping, Food Stamp Nation, but the changing is already pretty much institutionalized at this point.  Forward! (via Insty on Facebook) **** update: via Mark Levin, using Bush-era workforce numbers, the effective U-3 unemployment rate is over 10%. Which is “a step in the right direction” — just so long as the direction you’re moving toward is a permanent dependency class, a permanent ruling class, and a government

Speaking as a Hobbit, I don’t blame Bush. By the way, any truth to the rumor Al Gore is putting together a second film, The Inconvenient Truth 2:  Yeah, We Dems Pretty Much Fucked Everything Up, Didn’t We?  Because if not, boy do I have a pitch to make to him! (h/t BBH)
