Whip Me, Beat Me, Call Me Trash

I couldn’t sleep, having foolishly had a cup of coffee after dinner, so I was lying in bed flipping between the midnight Hardball re-run and whatever disaster show was on the History channel, when at the end of the hour, Pat Buchanan, Susan Page from USA Today, and Matthews discussed this little gem of a [...]


Why I hate Slate

For years now, I’ve had a running argument with my sister about Slate. She likes the stuff about advertisements and manners (Dear Ad Watch Guy and Dear Prudence, or whatever the hell they call those features) and feels that redeems Hitch, Kaus, and the occasional foray into white supremacism. But my gripe with [...]


Open Thread

Dr. Mrs. F and I agree that this from XKCD is spooky accurate.

Discuss.


Does This Mean Holder Has Specter’s Vote?

Specter, on the floor of the Senate today:

In a floor speech today, Arlen Specter, the ranking Republican on the Senate Judiciary committee, suggested that Eric Holder, Barack Obama’s nominee for Attorney General, might follow in the footsteps of … Alberto Gonzales!

Gonzales was confirmed with a Senate vote of 60-36, with no Republicans voting against. [...]


Harnessing the Power of the Red State Strike Farce

They are just warming up, but watch out leftards, behold the power of the premier website for conservative thought:

It is an hour long, but most likely worth it (I am only 15 minutes into the discussions).


Really, Not Furious

Just disgusted. James Joyner (proud new papa!) makes a great point about my post last night regarding DiFi’s reaction to the Panetta pick:

I couldn’t disagree more. One of the chief issues that frustrated conservatives such as John and myself had during the first six years of the Bush administration was a Republican Congress [...]


Interesting

Another Obama pick:

Brad Kiley has been named as the director of the Office of Management and Administration by President-elect Barack Obama. Kiley, who is openly gay, is currently the director of operations for the Obama-Biden Transition Project and was a former vice president at the Center for American Progress.

Though Director of the Office of Management [...]


Israel Links and News

As an American political blogger, I did not anticipate that my blog would turn into all Israel, all the time.
For those who desperately want to talk about Blago, Roland Burris, Caroline Kennedy, Bill Richardson, and the true tragedy that is the untimely death of the young son of John Travolta (my deepest condolence…it is every [...]


Tyranny of the Minority

I honestly have no idea why the Republicans would want to be the majority party, when they get everything they want as the minority party, and are not responsible for the fallout (“Don’t blame us, the Democrats run things!”):

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid yielded to Republican threats and agreed on Monday not to immediately seat [...]
