I sniff the wind of change, and it smells noxious and it seems suffocating This child has a lovely voice. The song is creeping me out. “We’re gonna spread happiness! We’re gonna spread freeeeeeedom! Obama…” It creeped me out in 2000 when people stood on a streetcorner handing out lyrics and singing songs about how Hillary Clinton was “a human statue of liberty…” who would solve all the world’s problems. It creeps me out even more to see children exploited... Read more
Glenn Reynolds has this from a media newsroom: A READER AT A MAJOR NEWSROOM EMAILS: “Off the record, every suspicion you have about MSM being in the tank for O is true. We have a team of 4 people going thru dumpsters in Alaska and 4 in arizona. Not a single one looking into Acorn, Ayers or Freddiemae. Editor refuses to publish anything that would jeopardize election for O, and betting you dollars to donuts same is true at NYT,... Read more
I got an email from someone sneering about today’s vote, “…the republicans had their widdle feelings hurt and decided to punish the country rather than pass the bill…Pelosi should probably have played nicer, but the GOP acted like babies…” First off – all the headlines are blaming the House Republicans for killing the bill – that is wholly predictable of the press – but it was The Pelosi’s own Democrats who backed away from the bill and kept it from...

UPDATE: Nancy Pelosi poisoned her own meal ticket. I said it on September 26, and I think I said it first: I am sure that things are in deeply serious and yes, something needs to be done, but there is also something illusory at work here. I wrote: It seems to me that there is an illusion being worked in the middle of all this frenzy; if during this crisis, the Democrats can still worry about laying themselves out for... Read more
One Link: A must read. Feel like praying? If you’re watching Pelosi and Frank telling you that everything you know is wrong, and that everything her crew has ever done is unequivocally good, while everything anyone else has ever done is unequivocally bad, until you don’t know what to think anymore, welcome to diabolical disorientation. Normal routines will not help, because this is not normal stuff. This is very abnormal, but it is soon going to seem normal to many.... Read more
Prayer. And. Fasting. I’m not kidding, either. After watching the incompetence, lies, malice, spitefulness, bad faith and corrupt, self-serving buffoonism of the whole lot of them in Washington, I am horrified by what we have seen. We’re in big, big trouble, and I’m not even talking about the bailout. I trust absolutely nothing coming out of Washington this day. And I bet you don’t, either. Clearly, this fellow does not: …the failure is deliberate. Don’t laugh. This method not only... Read more
Steve at Wizbang says: amid our crisis, the Congress sends the president a big spending bill, full of earmarks, and containing fakery about offshore drilling Had enough yet? Charlie Reese skipped the part about the press than enables these 545 people, but he still wrote a beaut of a column – apparently back when Reagan was president – in the Orlando Sentinel. I note updates in the parentheses: The 545 People Responsible For All Of U.S. Woes BY Charley Reese... Read more
I’m sorry, I really would like to be non-political about it – as to assigning blame for the crisis, there is plenty to go around, even to the credit-hungry public – but it is impossible not to talk about political parties as long as the Democrats insist on playing games with the bailout. Read what Chris Dodd (D-CT) tried to insert into the latest proposal here. It seems like the role of the GOP – when they are even invited... Read more
