Well, it was in the Fashion & Style section. Unlike this gem . NYT - Nothing if not predictable.  N othing Y ou'd T rust.

I know Alex Jones is out there a bit, but these purchases of millions of rounds of HP ammo by DHS (and by the Weather Service ??? FCO) are disturbing, to say the least.

But he may have won.

The relevant (most egregious) paragraph: The first-term Republican was back on the ballot just a year and a half after his election. Enraged Democrats and labor activists gathered more than 900,000 signatures in support of the recall after they failed to stop Walker and his GOP allies in the state Legislature from stripping most public employees of their union right to collectively bargain. I'm guessing the answer is the latter, but the former is certainly possible wit...

What USSC Justice Ginsberg thinks of the document she's sworn to uphold. Have the barf bag handy.

Just something that ought to be read.  As one who can only take small, infrequent real-time doses of the hate, just to maintain a degree of immunity, I didn't catch any of this 'live'.

What an elegant and devastating take-down of a piece by Time's Managing Editor.  Long, but I couldn't stop reading.  Just amazing.  I highly recommend it, especially to all my 'progressive' friends.

The 1-2-3 formula for the legacy media is quite obvious: 1) Make fun of Republicans. 2) Do a fluff piece making Obama look good. 3) Repeat 1) & 2) ad nauseum.   Case in point - NBC Nightly News June 21, 2011.  Shortly after a blurb making fun of Rick Perry for saying "Follow me on Tweeter" (Texas accent aside), a cute little video of a crying infant quieting as soon as it's placed in Obama's arms.  Aaaaw. And they think they're clever.  What ...

Yep, he's a dumb one, alright.  Short interview.  You'll know what I'm referring to.

I just happen to be watching Geraldo in the run-up to BO's surprise 'announcement' - the hyperventilating about what it might be about is just sickening.  Worse than Al Capone's Vault.  God save us.

The signs showed up a couple of weeks ago along the main arterial street nearest my house (1/8 of a mile away).  We should shortly expect 'Road Work' brought to us by the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009. The 'reinvestment': Replacing perfectly good and undamaged 'ridged' handicapped corner access sidewalk ramps with new rust-colored ramps with nipples instead of ridges. At least 10 guys and a cop were employed for 2 days at the intersection ne...

Because we just had to know, I guess.  Or maybe it was a matter of national security. Can't get to the info on who/what funded this, yet, but if it wasn't the Feds you could knock me over with a feather.

First, Obama. Now THIS . And THE TOPPER .

With the confusion virus, that is. In discussing the Gates Foundation's operations, there was this little jewel: Pablo Eisenberg of Georgetown University's Center for Public & Nonprofit Leadership said the foundation has a moral obligation to share its decision-making process more broadly as it distributes what is partly taxpayer dollars they saved on taxes by giving the money away. Technically, it's Pablo Eisenberg who is infected, but the WSJ let this go unchallenged: that mo...
