Rocks And Hard Places
In beautiful California. I agree with the commenter that the Congress should put harsh (and unacceptable to the lunatics in Sacramento) conditions on any bailout.
Warning Labels
The War On Science
…by the left. When they accuse Republicans of this, it’s just one more case of projection. And if you consider economics a science, dismal or otherwise, their bellicosity knows no bounds.
Saving Hayek
…from people who think they’re saving Hayek.
Actually, I don’t think that even they think that’s what they’re trying to do.
A Paucity
Nick Gillespie wants to see more politicians crying.
I want to hear the lamentations of their women, when they aren’t women themselves.

I don’t have any good way to grab the video, but I reran the segment several times on the DVR. On the “All-Star Panel” of Special Report tonight, in the second segment, A. B. Stoddard bit off the word “Teabaggers” when describing the affiliation of many incoming members of Congress. Just so you know where her head is. Color me unsurprised…
I hope someone will come up with video.

A Pattern In Close Elections
Mickey notices one:
That’s eight Dem wins, zero GOP wins. I sense a pattern! And this is a Republican year. Shouldn’t the nailbiters be distributed fairly evenly between the parties? …
If anyone has an explanation for this apparent phenomenon, let me know. All theories—including paranoid and supernatural explanations—will be considered. It’s also possible that Politico is biased in its selections. … My own hypothesis is that the pattern results from a curse issued by Al Gore after he was declared the loser in Florida in 2000 …
With all due respect to my friend Mickey, I have an alternate theory…
As Hugh Hewitt wrote, if it’s not close, they can’t cheat. Having a simple majority isn’t enough with these crooks.
