Really? This guy? I need not delve into their justification for selecting this stoner. I’m certain it is because he is the first biracial PEOTUS, and not because he is the least experienced, least known candidate in the history of this country. Spleef on, B-HO. Your Lapdog loves you.

Isn’t it interesting to hear democrat leaders and UAW reps come out and blame the republicans for the failure to pass the bailout? There are reportedly a dozen or so republican senators who have agreed to support the bill. Since the dems have the majority, shouldn’t their caucus plus the dozen republicans be enough to [...]

I can’t think of a better way to describe it than “WTF.” First up, articles from NRO, Times Online, and JihadWatch. Writing at NRO, Mark Steyn takes issue with those [...]
