Buzzfeed started it, albeit with the typically overwrought headline (3 things = Everything. Ever). Now NRO is saying, you know, Romneycare really wasn’t anything like Obamacare: The best way to think about Romneycare is on a left-right scale of 1 to 10. If 10 is a libertarian utopia, and 1 is a left-wing dystopia, Governor… Read More Rehabilitating Romney
Victor Davis Hanson calls out the steps, and our progressive New Class masters dance to them: Sometime in the mid-first century a.d., an otherwise little known consular official, Gaius Petronius, wrote a brilliant satirical novel about the gross and pretentious new Roman-imperial elite. The Satyricon is an often-cruel parody about how the Roman agrarian republic… Read More Welcome to Imperial Rome
Ace takes apart the usual wearisome blather from Slate, about how extolling the virtues of quiet fairly overflows with white-privileged patriarchal heteronormative cooties. Because women can’t possibly enjoy quiet, or something. Or it may be true that quiet is good, but YOU can’t say so, Mr. White Male Hetero Privileged Guy.

The terrorized wives of convicted lefty terrorists are less victimy than the hypothetical pregnant women who just need nine-month abortions. I mean, does Tetyuau Kimberlin even have cute pink shoes like Wendy Davis?

He’s found a way to make even George Bush popular.
A few weeks ago, when it was first discovered that the White House was tapping the phone records of the House of Representatives, I threw up a bit of snark on Twitter. @rsmccain @leatherpenguin at this point, I’m expecting to turn around and see Eric Holder reading my tweetdeck. #FortheChildren — Andrew Patrick (@ajpwriter) May… Read More The Government is Watching Me Type These Words
Here’s a joke from my old blog: Q: How do you separate the grown-ups from the children at the Huffington Post? A: With a crowbar.
