Groucho once said that “any club that would have me as a member isn’t worth joining,” and I agree with that when it comes to almost everything except Doug Ross’s “Fab 50″ blog awards. Michelle Malkin was named “Best Political Blog” and I share the “Best Pinch Hitter” honors for my guest-host duties at Michelle’s [...]

We’ll start getting back to full speed here as soon as I work off all the prime rib, rolls, stuffing and pie (has anybody ever had chocolate covered potato chips? Sounds gross but it’s actually quite addictive). Hopefully you all had a good Christmas too. Speaking of Christmas, yesterday, President Obama and the First Lady, [...]

It’s going to kill MSNBC to have to report this… if they ever do: Former U.S. President George W Bush’s memoir has sold an astonishing two million copies since it was released in early November – and it’s not even in paperback yet. ‘Decision Points’, published both in hardcover and e-book form, is flying off [...]

When Ted Kennedy named one of his dogs “Splash” it was almost as if he was mocking critics of his controversial past (it was like the Captain of the Titanic naming his pet “Iceberg”). But that’s neither her nor there. Splash has passed on, and he’s now up there or wherever with the rest of [...]

Stage Diving, Romanian Parliament Style
Filed Under Politics, World News | 8 Comments
A reminder of why Romania is starting to go bat-shait crazy: Public sector jobs account for one-third of the Romanian work force. That’s not anywhere near sustainable (“sustainability” is a word libs love unless it refers to the public trough) and slashing and burning isn’t optional, but inevitable. But some obviously can’t take it, but [...]

The ‘Most Productive Congress in Decades’?
Filed Under Media, Politics | 17 Comments
A Washington Post article here parrots what I’ve read in other papers and seen trumpeted on most news channels for the past few days: The 111th Congress was the most productive in decades! It’s the word “productive” that’s a joke. Big deal — termites once had a “productive” year on a house I used to [...]

What happens when you’re a Fox News producer, one of your guests is both a “holocaust survivor” and a “Nobel Prize winner,” and you’ve asked a studio intern to combine those two items into a one-line description? You proof-read it before it goes on the air, that’s what: Mediaite has the video.

From The Blaze: Not allowing gay military personnel to shower with straight military peronnel would be “discrimination.†That’s the position of Rep.

Alan Colmes: More Terror Plots are Hatched by Angry White Non-Muslims
Filed Under Media, Nat'l Security, Religion | 15 Comments
Do liberal talking heads really wonder why they never have their own TV or radio shows that do jack squat in the ratings? Who wants to watch “beyond stupid” for any length of time? By way of Gateway Pundit: “The issue is that more of these plots have been hatched by non-Muslims… It’s not just [...]

Pelosi’s Proudest Moment as Speaker: Ramming Through That Bill That Helped Get Her Party’s Ass Kicked Last Month
Filed Under Politics | 12 Comments
This is a little like Joe Hazelwood saying the proudest moment of his tanker captain career was when he had the honor of covering the Prince William Sound with oil, and that the harbor seals and clams were just too stupid to know what a favor he did for them. From Politico: “Every minute is [...]
