For conservatives, I’m a might tired of the weenies who prance around on the Internet as if they’re spoiling for a fight, then when someone with a little fight in them comes along, they start sounding like pussified Republicans. Oh, God, no, we can’t have that go on!! This argument makes him rather late to… Read More Dan Rhiel has had enough.
Stacy McCain links this damning comparison of the 2012 primary election to the 2008 primary election. I’m thinking of a Republican primary. It starts with a candidate (John McCain/Mitt Romney) who ran once before, came in second place, and won over the party’s elite class without winning over its base. Other candidates, understandably unwilling to… Read More The Republican Party Returneth, Like a Dog, Unto its Own Vomit. But it Doesn’t Matter.
Just because I’m cynical about the remaining forlorn hope for a Not-Mitt doesn’t mean I’m any more pleased about it than say, the gang at Protein Wisdom. Let’s consider some other possibilities. Either of the Ricks (Perry or Santorum) Might Win South Carolina. New Hampshire has an open primary. That means Democrats and Independents voted.… Read More In Which I Argue Against Every Point I Just Made About the Election
Apparently “Santorum” is Catholic for “Huckabee.” Personally, I don’t expect much to change in South Carolina. Last time ’round, South Carolina was supposed to be the last bastion against John McCain. South Carolina makes a good last bastion. More to the point, Gingrich has once more demonstrated his tactical incompetence. Who the hell told him… Read More The Bearable Tedium of Mitt Romney
Camp of the Saints has the goods. We should keep in mind that Christianity has always been a challenge to those views and values that human society normalizes. Abortion and contraception existed in the 1st century AD as well, albeit less effectively. As human societies exist to simplify human relationships, sometimes murder becomes a convenience.… Read More Mark Steyn: Rick Santorum is Creepy; Dr. Gosnell is Not Creepy
Rick Santorum’s Catholicism runs to the fervent, and can discompose people whose faith is nominative at best. As one who believes in charity as a divine command, I’m going to offer that as an explanation for Alan Colmes’ cheap shot about Santorum bringing his dead son home in 1996 before taking him to the funeral… Read More Alan Colmes Loosens His Filter
Ace remains a right-wing favorite for several reasons: his blog has a bracing, the-devil-with-you attitude which diverts nothing from it’s thoroughgoing geekiness, and his commenters, for sheer entertainment, may be the best in the blogosphere (so Breitbart thinks, anyway). But more than this, is Ace himself as a writer. He has a style equally laid-back and… Read More Ace of Spades Makes a Better Case for Rick Perry’s Candidacy Than Rick Perry Has Managed to, Thus Far…
…and they “have a professional obligation never to give a sucker an even break.” I think RS McCain may be on to something here. While one may doubt that this particular collection of alchies and junkies have any real desire to see Santorum propelled to the White House, the show must go on. Plus, Santorum’s… Read More In Case You Didn’t Know, Journalists are Carnies…
Randall Parker, without even bothering to take a look at Rick Santorum, the new favored candidate of RS McCain, throws up his hands to hold his nose for the standard Establishment line: So really, Romney’s the best bet for the Republicans. He’s got very high analytical skills, understands finance, understands business management, and knows how to… Read More When You Have Eliminated the Not-Mitts, Whatever Remains, However Mitt, Must Be the Candidate…
