Why haven’t I blogged about the Stroger inheritance? If you have sufficiently low expectations of the Stroger clan, it’s hard to be outraged.

Why haven’t I blogged about the Stroger inheritance? If you have sufficiently low expectations of the Stroger clan, it’s hard to be outraged.
Rich makes a point over at Capitol Fax about the meme from Republicans that the tax on big trucks is causing the industry to flee to Missouri. I don’t have time to check relative growth in border states, but a basic point here is that between 2002 and 2006, there has been an increase of […]
St. Louis Public Schools just fired Creg Williams. Current Board President confused herself with a manager and suggested she just needed more control…. then another of the geniuses who fired them was pissed off because there just weren’t enough administrators who were familiar with St. Louis. This was by design. St. Louis is notoriously a […]

It’s about a poll between Yaphett El-Amin and “known caucasion” Jeff Smith in a Missouri State Senate Race. Download file It’s a beaut. Notice it was sent from ACORN’s office and another hysterical feature is that John Cross is the Political Director For SEIU Local 2000 down here. It’s a great ‘read’ as well.
I’m having some minor tech problems on my end, but in the mean time, it appears Pete, the Anti-Abortion Crusader, still isn’t quite grasping the concept of satire One theory is that Andy Kaufmann is, in fact, alive. He’s rapidly approaching 2000 comments on the posts. One might start to feel sorry for the guy […]
Citing the Onion ‘author’ as a real article, generally gets you a lot of ridicule. I was fully expecting the site to be satire itself in some sort of post modern parody, but all evidence is, it’s for real. If you go to this site, the comments are adding a whole new dimension to comedy. […]
The General and his inner Frenchman points us to the implosion of a big bunch of, well, Nazis. You have to go through all the links to get the full effect, but for those with a short amount of time available, this probably will get you the most bang for the buck. Coming from the […]
seems a bit hypocritical when one is being supported by Tom DeLay, Grover Norquist, and the Republican establishment at the center of the Culture of Corruption in DC. Roskam isn’t an independent operator or a Mr. Smith going to Washington, he’s a movement conservative who has had Tom DeLay and Grover Norquist to raise money […]
I generally like Patterson (and Krol)–he does good work, but in the Roskam Social Security story, he’s let the campaign off on the issue of Social Security Privatization. The interesting thing about it is that Roskam hasn’t even appeared on Jeff Berkowitz’s Public Affairs–a fairly friendly venue, though one in which Jeff would pin him […]
Ed Kilgore makes an important point about Barack’s speech. (1) against conservative claims that God’s Will is easy to understand, dictates culturally conservative positions, and requires nothing more than obedience; (2) against Christian Left claims that progressives of faith should simply counter their Law with our Gospel; their sexual moralism with our social-justice moralism; their […]
He’s endorsed Lieberman for the primary, but will back whomever wins the Democratic Primary. Durbin? It’s the right thing to do. I don’t have purity contests for who someone might endorse, but supporting the Party’s nominee barring corruption or some terrible trait such as David Duke, seems pretty basic to being a part of a […]
I’m in San Francisco after having taught a seminar this morning and I’m going to enjoy the day though it would be a lot more fun at home with the family. Funny thing who you meet at seminars. More on that on Thursday. For today, enjoy the holiday and see what I want in a […]
