Woody Harrelson’s Dad Was an Assassin?
According to Nobody Move!, Charles Harrelson killed a federal judge in 1979 at the behest of a drug dealer. It was the first time in the 20th century a Federal Judge had been assassinated. I did not know that.
Chris Hayes is Uncomfortable With “Heros” Because He Doesn’t Know Anything about War. Or Rhetoric.
I suppose I could get myself all worked up about Chris Hayes feeling “uncomfortable” bestowing the moniker of “hero” on our victorious dead, as others have, but I’d much rather try to parse the fellow’s thought process: “Why do I feel so uncomfortable about the word hero?” Hayes said. “I feel uncomfortable about the word… Read More Chris Hayes is Uncomfortable With “Heros” Because He Doesn’t Know Anything about War.

To Know Him is To Love Him — The Continuing Heroics of Brett Kimberlin
Stacy McCain is a man on a mission. Rather, he’s a man wronged; and so determined to bring the wickedness of Brett Kimberlin to the light of day. From an undisclosed location, he’s yanking away the rock this slime’s been sitting under: First, a story about that time Kimberlin dropping the word “N!gger” to a… Read More To Know Him is To Love Him — The Continuing Heroics of Brett Kimberlin
But None Dare Call Him Socialist…
I’m late to this party, but BuzzFeed has Obama headlining at an event sponsored by the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) in 1996. I mean, sure, it was also sponsored by the University of Chicago Democrats. How centrist are they? (h/t: Gateway Pundit)

He was the son of King John and the father… Read More Westminster Abbey and its Forgotten Patron
Bob Belvedere Reminds Me Why I Should Hang My Head in Shame For Not Yet Owning Black Sabbath Vol. 4…
Good man.
Today is a Day of Sweat.
Farmer’s Market. Dunkin Donuts. Home Depot. Folks’ house. Hair Salon. Weed, mow, mulch and barbecue. I mean, I know I’m supposed to hate these things. But I’ve never been good at hating what I’m supposed to.
Brett Kimberlin Really Should Not Have Poked That Hive
In prompting Stacy McCain to (legitimately) wave the bloody shirt, Certified Super-Genius Brett Kimberlin has cause the whole Right-o-Sphere to pay attention to him. Instapundit and Michelle Malkin are aggregating. There’s a Kimberlin-related iceberg sitting atop Memeorandum. Satisfying as this all is, we should remember why this matters. Brett Kimberlin isn’t just a scumbag, isn’t… Read More Brett Kimberlin Really Should Not Have Poked That Hive
Jim Parsons and the Gayness of Geeks
Finding out that Jim Parsons, who plays uber-geek Sheldon Cooper on The Big Bang Theory, bats for the rainbow team is a surprise, and it is not a surprise. We aren’t talking about Liberace, and we aren’t talking about Rock Hudson, either. So the obvious response is neither “Duh,” nor “No way!” but “Huh.” Which… Read More Jim Parsons and the Gayness of Geeks
