Obama Lead Balloons

Sunday, March 8th, 2009

Yes, I want this, and other stupid ideas, to fail: Do you really have to be a “neocon” to worry about a guy who’s effectively been working for the Saudis, who served on the board of an oil company effectively owned by the Chinese government, and who argued that Beijing should have cracked down faster [...]

Contradictions of Socialism

I saw the future and ran away.

Time to Start Now

Sunday, March 8th, 2009

Bookworm on Growing the Grassroots: The gal who started the Marin conservative gatherings that I’ve had the pleasure of attending sent out a broadcast email reminding all conservatives, especially those trapped in blue communities, that it’s not enough to sit at home, read the blogs and complain. We have to work towards a change in [...]

A Long Six Weeks — For All of Us

Sunday, March 8th, 2009

Indeed: Barack Obama’s offhand approach to Gordon Brown’s Washington visit last week came about because the president was facing exhaustion over America’s economic crisis and is unable to focus on foreign affairs, the Sunday Telegraph has been told.

Stupid, Undisciplined Republicans

Saturday, March 7th, 2009

Could not agree more with Dan Riehl: As for Republicans, they are so damned dumb and undisciplined when it comes to messaging, one or more of them always falls into the trap and gets their fifteen minutes of fame and shame looking like the idiots they are. They could easily clean Obama’s clock by stealing [...]

The House is Burning Down

Saturday, March 7th, 2009

Mark Steyn on a roll: That’s what a lot of these smart guys thought when they saw Obama: “He looks like me. I can imagine myself sitting across from him at dinner and enjoying it.” Whereas Dean Barnett talked like Sarah Palin marinated in a vat of chowder for a year and a half. Nevertheless, [...]

Armageddon

Saturday, March 7th, 2009

Jay Nordlinger: John Negroponte, former director of national intelligence, former ambassador in Iraq, former a lot of things. . . . Let me tell you what he said about Iran and nukes — sobering words, given what the man must know: “I think that’s what they want, I think that’s what they’re headed towards, I [...]
