I’m a bit under the weather, which explains the lateness. How about some Jimmy Buffet to make up for that?
- John Hawkins presents the 7th Annual Right Wing News Conservative Blogger Awards.
- Moe Lane wonders what Sen. Bernie Sanders (Socialist-VT) will do to scratch his BDS itch when President Bush is gone.
- Tom McMahon 4-blocks skills and intentions.
- Jim Geraghty wonders who is left in the GOP who’s willing to fight. I believe the answer is, “Nobody.”
- Allahpundit found the expiration dates of Barack Obama’s words have expiration dates - it seems he won’t even wait until the 21st to order Club Gitmo closed even if the order will be slow-played.
- Ed Driscoll gives the presstitutes’ honeymoon with Obama 4-8 years. The only reason why it won’t be longer is because the “to 10 years” portion of Obama’s Presidency can’t happen.
- Matthew Continetti finds Newsweek has lached onto Red China as the last, “best” hope of Communism to take over the world.
- Kevin Fischer gets results - the 2-week “MJS Scorecard” is now all even at 4 pieces apiece. Money says they’ll slip back to their customary 3-1 liberal bias presently.
- Jon Ham found the next bailout participants - NPR and PBS. Never mind they already get $400 million a year in tax money; they want it more than doubled. I’ll spell out the proper answer - November Oscar.
- Jim Hoft found anti-Semitism very alive and well among the police in Duisburg, Germany. I’m surprised they, or the Islamokazis they were appeasing, didn’t leave a burning calling card.
- John points out the fallacy of “cease fires in the name of peace”.
- Back to bailouts for a second - Stephan Tawney is shocked, SHOCKED that Chrysler wants $3 billion more now (a 75% increase in what it got last month) and an unspecified amount for its finance arm.
- Nick Schweitzer proves the difference between a private enterprise and a public venture on his and his girlfriend’s way back from Cancun. Those two have lousy timing - they’re back just in time for some serious cold.
- Mark Tapscott has the latest bit of evidence that closed-door government is unhealthy for the taxpayers.
- Rob reports the big screen TV ban is about to hit Not-So-Great Britain. For those that don’t think it can’t happen here, I seem to recall an item the other week about California wanting to ban big-screens.
- Bill Quick offers the perfect solution for safety nannies.
- Jib dug up the origin of the penalty flag. I can only wonder what would have happened to Orlando Brown if the flags were still weighted with lead.
A couple of housekeeping items that I’m a part of:
- If it’s Monday, the gang at Blogs.4Bauer is live-blogging.
- The January edition of Drinking Right is tomorrow, same place as always (Papa’s Social Club, 7718 W Burleigh in Milwaukee), same time as always (7 pm).
