105% voter registration in Indianapolis???
Well, with any luck our voter ID law will weed out anyone not legitimately registered to vote.
Give that man a cigar
Someone here made a good choice back on June 30th. Me? I think Sarah Palin would make a great choice
A Gutter-al Scream
It’s almost as if the Dems can’t help but to resort to misogynistic antagonism in dealing with Gov. Sarah Palin. This comes courtesy of Alan Colmes, citing Rogers Cadenhead who questions Palin’s maternal abilities: One bit of weirdness associated with … Continue reading
New Media and “Defending the Ridge”
Because the blogosphere and all its scions have much more prominence, and arguably more influence, with respect to this year’s election, I’ve been lazily paying more attention to how new media is tackling the subject at hand. I think the … Continue reading

A Special “Energy”
Few of us approve of marital indiscretions. Personally, however, I hesitate to toss too many stones. Knowing what occurs in the confines of a marriage is difficult, if not impossible, to know. Some marriages are marriages of convenience, be it … Continue reading

Reality Based Analysis?
EJ Dionne thinks McCain is blowing it: By running an attack campaign that is almost a parody of George W. Bush’s 2000 and 2004 exertions, McCain is chucking away his greatest opportunity, which is to show that he could reform … Continue reading

The Civil McCain Myth
I don’t think McCain is being particularly nasty to Obama (nor Obama particularly nice) but I think Daniel Larson hits the nail on the head here: Indeed, to the extent that his agreement with the administration on many major policies … Continue reading

Campaign Racism
ABC’s Jake Tapper thinks it’s primarily being leveled by Democrats. There’s a lot of racist xenophobic crap out there. But not only has McCain not peddled any of it, he’s condemned it. What I have not seen is it come … Continue reading

And Pigs Will Fly…
Hmmm, oil states controlling production to just barely meet 35.6% of supply so they can keep prices high.
