An Indictment Isn’t a Guilty Verdict…

I got home from work today and turned on the official 52″ HDTV of the ConBlog and had the great misfortune of being tuned to MSNBC. Yesterday I said the Media Spin Machine would have a collective orgasm if Karl Rove were indicted. Well, he wasn’t, but Scooter Libby was.
They were covering this thing like it was August 9, 1974 all over again.

Catching Up…

OK, everyone. It’s feast or famine in the news cycle, and there’s a lot to cover today, so I’m going to touch on a few things briefly instead of 800 word treatments.

43 “Republicans” Who Suck…

I’m a Conservative first and a Republican second.
I think that’s an important distinction to draw. I vote Republican because that’s the party that comes closest to my own ideology. Well, except for this week. If there were elections this week, I’d write in “Mickey Mouse” before I’d vote for 43 particular Senate Republicans. Who are they? Well, I’ll tell you…and then I’ll tell you why.

Happy Blogiversary to Me!!…

Where does the time go?
As I sit here this evening, it’s hard to believe that two years have gone by since this site went live. What started as my own exercise in freedom of speech has become a commentary that’s read by a fair amount of people—when I update, that is.

He’s Kidding Us…Right?

As I’ve been many times before, I’m officially annoyed with President George W. Bush.
Harriet Miers?
HARRIET MIERS?!?!
I’m beside myself. I’m bordering on apoplexy. I’m furious. I’m…well…I’m damned good and angry, that’s what I am.
