Comparing Obama to Robert Redford in The Hustler Some in Big Media are beginning to see The Hustler for what he is: If you haven’t seen the 1961 movie “The Hustler” starring Paul Newman and Jackie Gleason, you should – it’s a classic. As I watched the Democratic New Hampshire debate Saturday night, that movie […]

More fun: The Democratic nomination will be determined by Democrats. Democrats want a Democratic President who fights for Democratic progressive values. The Democratic nomination will not be won with flowery words. Hillary understands that actions speak louder than words. That’s right – actions speak louder than words. And talk is still cheap. Democrats will nominate […]

Can’t make it up–shortly after Iowa: Last night Big Media was finally able to publish the story they wrote a year ago. The victor last night was Big Media. The victors last night were Chris Matthews and Tim Russert. But let’s not excuse what happened last night by blaming others. Let’s not make excuses by […]

I’m waiting for the site to explode in a blast of spontaneous They have been entertaining me for a while now and I thought I’d share some of the better bits: Winter Solstice: For nonbelievers the Winter solstice brings the scientific fact of spaceship earth returning to the Sun’s ascent and the promise of longer […]

A truly hysterical parody site or just hysterical self-delusion. Among other sharp remarks, Buffenbarger said this, which upset the incense burners: “Give me a break! I’ve got news for all the latte-drinking, Prius- driving, Birkenstock-wearing, trust fund babies crowding in to hear him speak! This guy won’t last a round against the Republican attack machine. […]

OneMan clearly doesn’t understand the depths of my cynicism: If Jim was the one backing out of forums I know Archpundit and Hiram wouldn’t let it go without a comment (and rightfully so). It’s true I’m sure I have taunted a candidate or two on this, but I largely see debates about debates to be […]

Rich runs down a bunch of the potentials to replace Tim Balderman as the Republican nominee for Congress in Illinois-11. God cannot love me enough to let Chris Lauzen run so I’ll discount that possibility right now. The name that has floated around the most without being shot down is a potential self-funder in Martin […]

Yglesias on the Clinton Campaign Tons of interesting stuff in Patrick Healy’s article on Hillary Clinton supporters reconciling themselves to probable defeat. This bit lurking near the end is, if true, pretty telling: In interviews with 15 aides and advisers to Mrs. Clinton, not a single one expressed any regrets that they were not working […]

Obama at the Debate last week: OBAMA: I think, as I said before, preparation is actually absolutely critical in any meeting. And I think it is absolutely true that either of us would step back from some of the Bush unilateralism that’s caused so much damage. But I do think it is important precisely because […]

What a douche bag “Emphasize Barack Hussein Obama’s unusual name and exotic background through a Manchurian Candidate prism.” Is there too much lead in the DC water supply?

In the debate against Foster he insists universal health care is equivalent to single-payer health care. You’d think the guy with a German name might have some passing familiarity with Germany that has private health insurance within a universal system–just as Obama, Edwards and Clinton have all proposed. If the press wants to do their […]

Yes, that’s right. Prohibiting unequal treatment due to gender would be against families and be pro-choice. Fran Eaton says so This can be seen as nothing less than rubbing the prolife/profamily movement’s face in the fact that Democrat liberals are in control of Illinois and, well, they have to live up to their quid pro […]

Daniel Zanoza outdoes everyone: These are some of the reasons why I have made the Obama antichrist analogy. It would take some sort of mesmerism to get me to believe that killing babies in the womb is a Constitutional right. But I don’t think that is the way the antichrist will operate. Those who fall […]
