Feminist-obsessed, UNC-Wilmington criminology professor "Dr." Mike Adams, writing at conservative Townhall: The liberal reaction to Cheney’s accident may vary slightly from liberal to liberal but there is one common characteristic; namely, these liberals feel morally superior because they’ve never shot someone on a hunting trip. Actually, he’s right. I do feel somewhat morally superior for, you know, never having shot … Read More
Fox News Answers All Your Questions
A typical day for Fox. Hume asked Cheney the pressing question — I’m not kidding — of whether or not he hit the bird. Jeez. Like that old joke "Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?", except it’s, you know, real. [UPDATE: Shakespeare’s Sister’s line is good, too: "Mrs. Kennedy, did you at least get to do some … Read More
Why Sometimes We Should Throw Podhoretz Away
Man, are these guys stupid. Here’s John Podhoretz, at the NRO’s Corner: WHY SOMETIMES THEY SHOULD THROW POLL RESULTS AWAY New Gallup poll, not kidding, says on the one hand that 52 percent of those polled believe things are going well in the country, and on the other hand that 59 percent say the country is going in the wrong … Read More
The Felonious Ann Coulter
Heh: Palm Beach County Supervisor of Elections records show Coulter voted last week in Palm Beach’s council election. Problem is: She cast her ballot in a precinct 4 miles north of the precinct where she owns a home — and that could be a big no-no. Coulter, who owns a $1.8 million crib on Seabreeze Avenue, should have voted in … Read More
The Cult Of Bush
Glenn Greenwald has written the seminal post on the "Cult Of Bush", and everybody is talking about it: "The blind faith placed in the Federal Government, and particularly in our Commander-in-Chief, by the contemporary "conservative" is the very opposite of all that which conservatism has stood for for the last four decades. The anti-government ethos espoused by Barry Goldwater and … Read More
Guess What? Kaye Grogan Is Angry
Today, it’s at ABC . . . I think. Shame on the Super Bowl coordinators for lining up several notables to be recognized just before the National Anthem Sunday, but failing to mention our troops for a job well done. The troops are done? Cool. By the way, Kaye, the National Anthem? Kind of a tribute to war. Just sayin’…. … Read More
Malkin’s Priorities
Michelle Malkin: When it comes to speaking and writing on unpleasant matters, I learned a long time ago to stop apologizing. It is a waste of my breath, time, and energy to precede every political discussion with "I’m not saying all [X] are [Y]." Or: "Of course, I don’t hate all [Z] and please don’t misunderstand me, blah, blah, blah." … Read More
What Earwax And Body Odor Tell Us About American History
Conservative columnist Debbie Schlussel is serious: Today’s New York Times details a Japanese scientific on earwax and body odor in Asians vs. Europeans and Africans. There is actually an "earwax gene" in DNA that determines this. But the paper glosses over the most important finding. The study found that Europeans and Africans tend to have wet ear wax, sweat more, … Read More
Wanker Of The Week
Conservative columnist and pundit Ann Coulter: "We need somebody to put rat poisoning in Justice Stevens’ creme brulee," Coulter said. Wha?!? Then Coulter added: "That’s just a joke, for you in the media." A joke. Oh, I get it!! Hahahahaha!!!! Murdering a Supreme Court judge! That’s hysterical!!!! Hahahahahaha! And it’s funny because it’s sooooo true! Yup. The no-longer-crack-addicted* and irony-impaired … Read More
Kaye Grogan Is Confused
Time to check in on our favorite Renew America wingnut, Kaye Grogan. Today Kaye writes about Kerry, the Alito nomination, and abortion. She gets off to a shaky start: Senator John Kerry is trying for one last "hurrah" using Judge Samuel A. Alito as his whipping post — calling for a filibuster. A last hurrah? Is Kerry going somewhere? Where … Read More
The 2006 George W. Bush Dead Kitten Survey
Cartoonist (see right) and blogger August Pollak wonders how far some conservative bloggers, talk show personalities, and pundits will go in their support of Bush. So he sent them a questionnaire: I would like for you to imagine the President of the United States, George W. Bush, killing kittens one-by-one with a hammer. When doing so, please keep in mind … Read More
The Unbiased Media
I’ve been following the WaPo story with some interest, but haven’t commented on it. And now, when I’m prepared to comment, Legal Fiction steals my thunder. For those not up on it, it started with the Post’s Ombudsman, Deborah Howell, writing that Jack Abramoff gave money to Republicans and Democrats alike. This created a howl from the left blogosphere, simply … Read More
The So-Called Liberal Media
Right-wingers like to blast the New York Times because of its supposed liberal bias. I never understood that. Take today’s paper. The page one headline reads "Inquiry on Clinton Official Ends With Accusations of Cover-up". The "Clinton official" is Henry Cisneros, who was indicted on 18 felony counts, pled guilty to a misdemeanor, and was eventually pardoned by President Clinton. … Read More
Huh?!?
Michelle Malkin links to another post which discusses "the Dems’ failed approach to the War on Terror" (Malkin’s words). Yup. We’ve tried it the Dem way, and it "failed". So says the increasingly irrelevant Malkin.
Debating Bill
Fox News has a contest in which 6 winners (picked by Fox News, of course) get to "debate" Bill O’Reilly on the air on any topic they desire (did I mention the 6 winners — and their desired topics — are picked by Fox News?). Deep in the contest rules, we find this little tidbit of verbiage: Sponsor reserves full … Read More
