…I haven’t touched the national news today.
Lucky for you the other blogs are on the ball:
Robert Stacy give the Port-Mortem on the Illinois results that were less than what might be desired:
Second-guessing campaign strategies is a fascinating sport. However, if there is any New Media takeaway from the Illinois gubernatorial primary, it is this: Campaigns would be wise to engage the blogosphere early in the election cycle, rather than to treat online outreach as an afterthought.
Mark Hemmingway touches on Excitable Andy’s latest foray into Bloggers Alzheimer’s on the subject of Sarah Palin:
At what point does Andrew Sullivan’s derangement over Sarah Palin and his bizarre conspiracy theories about how her son was really birthed by her daughter become an issue for an otherwise respectable publication such as The Atlantic? If his employers don’t take action over this blog post of his, then we’re totally through the looking glass:
RSM recommends Ace of Spades on the subject is a tad vulgar for my taste.
The lonely conservative notes that if there is one thing you can say about this administration is they are consistent.
President Obama can’t stop pointing his finger at George Bush for his troubles. It’s getting so old. Every president faces challenges, Bush did. But Bush didn’t have a filibuster proof majority to work with, the way Obama’s had for the past year.
I think the reason he might not go for a 2nd term is he will have nobody else to blame.
Dan Riehl notes that Scott Brown is a real equal opportunity employer.
“I just go — I don’t care who they are as long as they’re good people and they’ll be trustworthy and loyal and they’ll do their jobs, I don’t care. Kennedy had some of the best people in the country and I’m honored to have some of them
Well we know these guys are discreet.
The camp of the Saints crowns a new leader of the free world:
Israel has no choice: The United States and the other nations of The West will not act to protect the Free World against the threat of a nuclear Islam, so it must bear the burden. Benjamin Netanyahu IS the leader of the Free World.
I still think it might be a bluff.
Don Surber sees projection on the left:
As Obamania winds down and it inevitably was fated to do — taking with it the hopes for a Europeanized America complete with socialized medicine, leaders on the left will ratchet up their rhetoric.
It is a sign of a political moment dying.
Legal Insurrection approves:
Keep calling the majority of Americans crazy and dangerous and extremists and “teabaggers.” Every time you do it we gain votes.
They are not called the angry left for nothing.
The Libertarian Popinjay notes a pet that you don’t want to own.
Meanwhile Peg agrees declares Global Warming a religion:
Arguing with people who exhibit this sort of behavior is like arguing with those who have strong religious beliefs. Their beliefs are rooted in faith; not hard evidence.
In a free nation, they are surely entitled to believe what they wish. But, the rest of us should not be held hostage to their religious beliefs. Let’s not twist our economy and freedoms to align with faith. Let the rest of us to be free to act on what many of us believe: that the earth’s atmosphere and temperature is the result of many factors, and that it is unclear that man has more than a tiny impact on what happens to them
Where have I heard this before?
American Freedom likes Vernon Parker for Az 3rd and unlike Chris Matthews doesn’t forget his race…
You don’t need to forget with Mayor Parker you never notice the color of his skin and he shouldn’t be stereotyped by it. What you do pay attention to his belief in the American people, Love of Family and Country. His belief in a smaller government, creating jobs, reviving the economy, not raising taxes, lowing the deficit and giving those less fortunate a hand up not a handout.
Will the media even notice?
Ruby Slippers is feeling VERY optimistic:
Momentum has a way of shaking stronger candidates out of the trees. The Senate may still be a long shot but it is looking less like a long shot than it did before Massachusetts. There is a lifetime politically between now and November, but as of now, the ball is clearly in our court
What’s that line from the Patriot? Aim Small Miss Small.
And finally American Glob is sick of all the bowing by the president:
Weasel Zippers caught this photo of Obama bowing to… The mayor of Tampa, Florida.
Does President Obama have a single advisor smart enough to tell him to stop bowing to people? Can you picture Reagan doing this? Washington? Lincoln? JFK? Carter???
I don’t know looking at the picture I think it was just an excuse to check out her legs.
