An Open Mic Moment with the Conservative Punditry

Via Politico:
After a segment with NBC’s Chuck Todd ended today, Republican consultant Mike Murphy and Wall Street Journal columnist Peggy Noonan were caught on a live mike ridiculing the choice of Sarah Palin.
Watch here:
Those talking heads and guests will never learn… As Politico notes, “Noonan’s blunt call contrasted with her conflicted column today saying Palin [...]

Sarah Palin, The Gift That Keeps On Giving

John McCain’s VP pick Sarah Palin seems to be the gift that keeps on giving. There’s a lot we still do know about her and a lot that we do now know. Frankly, I think Palin is steeped in hypocrisy and I know I am not alone in that thinking. As the mother of 19 [...]

Ten Post Round-Up: July 23, 2008

If this round-up were any juicier, you’d totally stick a fork in it…
1. It is long overdue to retire this policy.  Gay soldiers should not be held to a higher standard than straight soldiers who are free to date who they like and not conceal their attractions.  It is the gay soldier who [...]

Ten Post Round-Up: July 21, 2008

Some days, it sucks to read the news, because it’s a reminder that our country appears to be being run by a bunch of frat boys, out on a lark and hoping that a grown-up might come along and fix it (all the while forgiving and forgetting who was responsible for the bull$#!% in [...]

Dizzy’s Ten Post Round-Up

These days it seems as if it’s a good time to invest in bicycles (to save gas money) and mattresses (to store your savings). At least, we can drown our sorrows in “hopsicles” and if we forget where we hid our money we can rely on our daily cuppa to refresh our memory. We may [...]

Dizzy’s Ten Post Round-Up

Some days (particularly Mondays) require more than one cuppa. Today is one of those days.
1. Word for the day: transparency

John Conyers has been issuing subpoenas on other issues, which may be important. However, what could be more important for Congress than [...]

Dizzy’s Ten Post Round-Up

Thanks to Phil Gramm for reminding me of something I forgot, being a member of a “nation of whiners”, I tooks some time to do just that (thanks to those wonderful people who took the time to listen). Truthfully, though, I prefer to do my whining via blogging, so what better place to do that [...]

Dizzy’s Ten Post Round-Up

Going through some life changes around here and adapting to a new schedule and still finding time to slack off for my mental health (needed some extra time, yesterday, after the FISA bill passed the Senate), so I have been shirking my Round-Up duties.  But, I don’t want to get out of practice (being [...]

Dizzy’s Ten Post Round-Up

I admit it. I was playing a bit of hooky, yesterday, and I was too busy (having fun) to put up a post. But, I kinda like you guys, so I decided that it would be kinda fun to put up today’s Ten Post Round-Up.
Gasp! Shocking news: The government and the media lie to the [...]

Dizzy’s Ten Post Round-Up

Hey, hey, it’s Independence Day and I just happen to be feeling a bit of that independence since this is actually the second regular work day that I have off from work.  This is abnormal as I work weekends.  I am at a loss for what to do with myself, so I decided to [...]

Dizzy’s Ten Post Round-Up

Cheeseburgers, tomatoes, and porn! What more could you want to read about in today’s Ten Post Round-Up? 1. Al Dente: Almost (In)Edible Photo: Krispy Kreme Bacon Cheeseburgers
From flickr, via…THE DEVIL. Either that, or it’s from a Google cafeteria in New York. Apparently they serve Krispy Kreme bacon cheeseburgers, a.k.a Luther Burgers.
Since something or [...]
