Avoiding guilt by looking really guilty

Steroids. Used by cheating athletes (Manny, Arod, etc.) and howled at by the media, a positive steroid test can damage any athletes reputation. Sometimes you don’t even need a positive test, guilt by association is enough. Which brings us to some Belgian bodybuilders who decided to avoid the stigma of a positive test by peaceing [...]

He must be listening with the sound off

John Hinderaker. He’s one of the most prominent bloggers on the right. To give you perhaps a look at the quality of his mind, he’s infamous amongst those on the left for writing the following about one President George W. Bush:
It must be very strange to be President Bush. A man of extraordinary vision and [...]

The other side

Warning, watching this video of McCain/Palin supporters outside an event in Ohio will cause you to question your faith in humanity.

There is something seriously wrong with these people.

Hewitt almost strikes again

Via Chris Orr comes word of potentially the greatest book to be published on the 2008 Presidential election: Hugh Hewitt’s “How Sarah Palin Won the Election … and Saved America”. Doesn’t that sound like a book you’d like to read? Unfortunately it looks like it won’t be published:

One campaign book that has already bitten the [...]

Keen insight from Michelle Malkin

Michelle Malkin, you are a delight. You’ll recall that earlier, Paul Mirengoff of Powerline took Convention analysis to new heights with his genius evaluation of Senators Obama and McCain post-speech behavior. Malkin, not to be outdone, see’s Mirengoff’s analysis and raises: she see’s an important difference between the Senators based on…..how they laid their roses [...]

My favorite bit of Convention analysis

I don’t know whether anyone whose vote is up-for-grabs continues to watch a convention after the presidential nominee finishes his speech. However, the ensuing celebrations at the two [...]

Who would hire these people?

Mark Penn and Karen Hughes are joining forces “to create a bipartisan consulting organization to advise corporations in crisis”. For realz? For realz. Who in their right mind would hire Mark F’ing Penn and Karen “Yeah that Karen Hughes” Hughes? Mark Penn is fresh off being ridiculed by basically the whole world for his work [...]

Almost too good to be true: The House Republicans came up with a new “theme” for their policy agenda: The Change You Deserve. Only problem is, that’s also the slogan of an anti-depressant drug.

Good timing Jim Cramer

Everyone’s talking about Bear Stearns today. Here’s what Jim Cramer had to say about them last week:

Brilliant analysis sir.

Kristol uses NY Times to pass on a lie

Wow, that Bill Kristol hiring is really working out for the NY Times. Marc Ambinder points out that Kristol makes a rather significant factual area in Kristol’s column today regarding Senator Obama and his attendance at a church service during which Rev. Wright made some controversial remarks. Kristol, apparently getting his material from Newsmax of [...]
