What follows is an edited transcript of our conversation. What’s the most […]

 

6 Big Questions About The Edwards Affair

1) Did the affair begin before Hunter began working with the campaign? If nothing was going on, why did Edwards pay a novice $114,000 to shoot a handful of videos for his campaign? 2) If Edwards’ loyalist Andrew Young is really the father of Rielle Hunter’s baby, why did his wife consent to having Hunter […]

 


The Globe: A Bush And Laura Split?

Part of my duty, as a professional blogger, is to read the tabloid stories that most of you are too classy to touch with a 10 ft. pole so that I can let you know whether we have another John Edwards/Rielle Hunter scandal or merely the political version of Batboy. So, when I saw this […]

 

Mini-Movie Review: The Dark Knight

Yesterday, I finally got around to seeing The Dark Knight, which looks like it’s on pace to crack the $500 million dollar mark domestically. To be honest, I went in wondering if the movie would live up to the hype and for the first 30 minutes of this 2 1/2 hour long flick, things seemed […]

Media Matters, but I don’t!

Last week was a pleasant enough week, blogging-wise, because I experienced an Instalanche over at Likelihood of Success. Why should you care? Because that brief (not unprecedented) moment of attention resulted in yet another lesson about the way the left sees the role of truth, media and the American way. I had commented on a […]

 

Operation Continuing Promise

I had a very interesting and unusual week this week (and it precluded me posting here). As a member of the DoD Blogger’s Roundtable, I was offered an opportunity which, frankly, I couldn’t refuse. Tuesday evening I boarded the USS Kearsarge, a Wasp class Amphibious Assault ship based in Norfolk VA. As you can imagine, […]

 

Leftist AWOL’er Faces 3 Years In The Slammer

The story Last month 25-year-old U.S. Army PFC Robin Long became the first war resister since the Vietnam War to be forcefully deported from Canadian soil and handed over to military authorities. Robin is currently being held in the El Paso County Jail, near Colorado Springs, Colorado, awaiting a military court martial for resisting the […]

 


The Desert Lover

Via Rick, a more-impressive-than-usual sampling of just plain raw unfettered stupidity from the Huffington Post. We like to belabor the obvious here at The Blog That Nobody Reads…so first, we’ll read Ms. Haydn’s remarks in full…then some bullet points. Have you ever gone through a really dry period sexually? At first you get angry that […]

 




Dems Support Guaranteeed Substandard Health Care for All

The Democratic Party platform will include "guaranteed" health care for all, the AP is reporting today. It’s not clear how Dems plan to achieve this.  A proposal to mandate a single-payer, governmental-run system has been defeated, for now. But "guaranteed" means "guaranteed," as in "even if you refused to pay for your own health coverage, […]

 

Elizabeth Edwards speaks

She released a statement vowing to stand behind her man: Our family has been through a lot. Some caused by nature, some caused by human weakness, and some most recently caused by the desire for sensationalism and profit without any regard for the human consequences. None of these has been easy. But we have stood […]

 

Ezra Levant: one case down, 17 to go

After 900 days, and the work of 15 bureaucrats costing taxpayers an estimated $500,000, the case against the only publisher in the Western world charged for reprinting the Danish Mohammed cartoons has been dismissed. And Ezra Levant isn’t happy about it: The 11-page government report into my activities is a breathtakingly arrogant document. In it, […]

German Town Imposes Solar Panels on Private Homes

The Nazis and communists are gone now, yet totalitarianism has returned to Germany. A report from Marburg: The town council took the significant step in June of moving from merely encouraging citizens to install solar panels to making them an obligation. The ordinance, the first of its kind in Germany, will require solar panels not […]

 

Q&A Friday #92: Should We Want High Oil Prices To “Drive Us From Oil?”

Question: “Compromise on Drilling: In today’s “Drill and Conserve“, Charles Krauthammer called for both drilling, conservation and pursuing alternative energy sources. Although I usually find a lack of reason with the Democrats, I think in this case they are very reasonably concerned that drill-now really will provide short term relief on oil prices. This, in […]

 


Q&A #92: Presidential Looks

Question: This question is for Melissa: Inevitably, presidential electoral contests will always find someone raising the issue of the overall attractiveness of the presidential candidates. And I’m not talking about attractiveness only regarding ideology or policy, but the whole package: physical attributes, comportment, charisma, intellect, etc. A package that might find someone, even if not […]

 

Lindsey Graham Is Why The Republicans Lose

Via Eric Odom, via Twitter, the Conservative Belle says this (and this is a big fat quote from her): There are five Republican senators who are cooperating with five Democrats to make McCain and Republicans look bad introduce an energy solution.

Q&A Friday #92: School Vouchers

Question: “For either Melissa or John: The State of Louisiana is enacting for the first time what is essentially a school voucher program in the greater New Orleans area. It’s called a “scholarship” program. In essence, only those Louisiana residents who fall below a certain income threshold are eligible to apply for these “scholarships” and, […]
