Missing the point on Phil Gramm

Ed Morrissey wrote post about the departure of Phil from the McCain camp. As part of his post, he talked about the Gramm venture in the porn industry:
The second issue has been bouncing around the Leftosphere for a few days.  Gramm invested $15,000 in some cheesy soft-core porn film … in 1973.  Apparently he lost [...]

Facism at Forums.Hannity.com?

Yes, strong word, so let me state my definition first:

2: a tendency toward or actual exercise of strong autocratic or dictatorial control <early instances of army fascism and brutality — J. W. Aldridge>

So I guess FireWatch went on a rampage to ban (temporary and permanent) users because they dare criticize Jesse Helms in a thread about [...]

YES WE CAN!

Yes we can! We’ve made it! For all those stressful night, how refreshing to read Hot Air write:
Face it, you’re sad. I’m sad too.
 I’m not sad. Are you?
I’m glad we are going to move out of the primaries and into the general election. Next stop, the VP picks…
Like many bloggers, I like Jim Webb… Also, [...]

Taking away from the dignity of the office…

How? By John McCain appearing on Saturday Night Live, per Laura Ingraham.
I love Laura’s criteria. I really wonder what she thought of ‘heck of a job Brownie’, or the joke Bush made in 2004 about WMD.

Did I miss the “English only” article in the constitution?

I love the debate about the ‘order in English sign’ in the famous Geno’s Steaks restaurant in Philly.
Michelle has a post about the ‘cowards’ that avoided his restaurant, and discusses a debate happening today:
Vento continues to voice his assimilationist message. He’s taking on the Democrat cowards who avoided the issue during the Pennsylvania primary and today [...]

Too late to whine about USCIS!

I love some of the outrage on the right. Especially after hearing the right whine about the criticism formulated by the left towards the ABC presidential debate.
Michelle Malkin has discovered flash cards on the USCIS site that teach important aspects of the United States to permanent residents that want to become citizens.
Michelle writes:
A Hill source [...]

You can’t have it both ways

After the 100 years ‘misquote’, Team McCain charges that Obama is distorting McCain once again…
Via Conservative Punk. For a change, this one has nothing to do with spending 100 years in Iraq. Team Maverick is irate, for good reason as you’ll see, but what I think we’re watching here is a strategy starting to take [...]

Revoking Carter’s passport? What’s next?

Some people really have sad ideas. Sad, because they really seem to go against what we stand for (among those, freedom of expression).

Rep. Sue Myrick: Revoke Carter’s passport
It’s never going to happen, although I do like her line at the end about pulling federal funding from his think tank.
 Michelle Malkin suggests another solution if that [...]

Two flawed candidates?

I love Ed Morrissey’s conclusion on the Obama/Hillary debate that took place last night:
The progressive outrage is misplaced.  They should be angry that they only have these two flawed candidates left as choices.  ABC asked appropriate questions.  Progressives just didn’t want to hear them.
We should be angry of these two flawed candidates?
First, if you ever [...]

The verdict is in! A user that was partially reprimanded has been banned from Hannity.com

I wrote a post about this earlier. Basically, a user had made a broad and negative assertion towards the troops which had gotten him a partial speech ban. He wasn’t allowed to talk about the military, even remotely.
I thought that this thread would die, but Thabin tried to apologize while keeping his dignity. He wrote:

I [...]
