Interesting Read

Published by rightwingprof under Palin, Obama, McCain, '08

It’s on the Hillary Forum, but it seems to be down. It’s also been posted at Red State: Hillary staffer comes clean. The author isn’t identified, and I’m inclined to doubt these sorts of things, but this makes me suspect this may be genuine.
Obama’s radical connections. Standards operating procedure has been to cry “racism” whenever […]

It’s Getting To Be That Time Of Year

Published by rightwingprof under Food

Pot roast. Well, without carrots, because I didn’t have any. And it’s not yankee pot roast. Don’t do the taters and carrots in the stock thing. You can add any seasoning you want, but since when did beef need anything but salt and pepper? Same goes for venison or elk, although juniper berries are traditional, […]

Ace:
Democratic lawyers, and the Democratic prosecutors in Ohio, advise us that Ohio law is “confusing” on the point that one can only vote in a state if one actually lives in that state.
Well, confusion certainly explains this.
Congressman John Hall (D-Dover Plains) fired one of his long-time campaign advisers Tuesday, after learning that she’s embroiled […]

Why I Vote Republican, Chapter XXXIX

Published by rightwingprof under IN, PA, Conservatism

You remember the crap about the emissions test. The day after I drove out here, I took the Explorer to Midas for an overhaul. While waiting, a mechanic came to tell me, “This won’t pass the test,” as he pointed to a quarter-sized spot of rust on the running board.
“Test? What test?”
“The emissions test. See, […]

ACORN on trial.
A former employee of an affiliate of ACORN testified yesterday that the community group now in the national spotlight knew that most new voter registration forms it had gathered were fraudulent.
“Forty percent was OK,” said Anita Moncrief, referring to the number of bona fide registrations that officials at the Association of Community Organizations […]

Surprise

Published by rightwingprof under Palin, PA, '08

The local rag a couple of weeks ago announced that The First Dude would be at the Homecoming tailgate, but didn’t bother to write a story afterward. They did cover last night’s Palin rally. And Mitch, who was just going to go, got lassoed into working the rally.

I Don’t Get It

Published by rightwingprof under '08

How does somebody with so little political (or common) sense who is so scornful of his own constituents get elected in the first place — much less re-elected for 87 years?

And I wouldn’t complain about carpetbaggers if I were a Democrat. If it weren’t for carpetbaggers, Democrats wouldn’t have half the seats in Congress they […]

Wisdom And Honor

A long-time friend from Indiana sent me this, and I’m posting it with permission. It echoes some things I’ve been wanting to say but haven’t, because — frankly — I’m fairly disgusted. With the Democrats. With a faction in the GOP. With the nation at large. When I can calmly discuss it, I will.
Here it […]

but after the election, not before. The tax raise was on those making $250,000 a year and up. Then, it went to $200,000. Now, it’s $150,000.
So how far down will they dare adjust it before the election?

And I may not go to the rally tonight. I know, I know, but remember: I’ve been to three so far. Look, it’s cold as hell. Well, it’s technically 41, but it’s very windy. I looked at the temp, threw on a T-shirt and a windbreaker, and went to headquarters. I was way underdressed. And […]

A Mixed Bag

This weekend was good for college football. For the first time in 30 years, Penn State defeated Ohio State 13-6 in Columbus, in Ohio State’s Homecoming game. That’s schadenfreude, ja sure. And in Memorial Stadium, IU beat Northwestern 21-19 in IU’s Homecoming game. Course, it remains to be seen what happens at Heinz Field when […]

Can I Ask A Question, Joe?

Biden attempted to insult Johnny Mac — by calling him John McClane (the idiot reporter misspelled the character’s name). Well actually, that’s ascribing too much intelligence to Biden. What he did was mistakenly call John McCain “John McClane,” and then when he realized what he’d said, tried to turn it into an insult.
