I have an amazing bottle of scotch. The Macallan Cask Strength. That’d be 120.2 proof, to you mere mortals. Wake me up in four years. In the immortal words of Glenn Reynolds, the Instapundit: If Obama wins, I’ll be as gracious and generous as the Democrats were in 2000 and 2004.

I’m just back from voting. Because of my handicap, I got to use the drive-up curbside voting, which I thought was nice. There was no waiting. I spoke with the poll worker; here in our heavily-Republican district, in-person turnout up to about 3:00 was at about 30-40%. That, of course, doesn’t count the early or [...]

It’s not often that I quote myself (OK, who am I kidding, I do it all the time — just, not here… much) but in reply to a “concern troll” Libertarian commenter at Legal Insurrection I fired an off-the-cuff missive that after due consideration seems to me to be too on-point to get buried. After [...]

The day is almost here. (Image via the Chicago Boyz) Get out there and vote. It’s your only chance to say no to Obama and his Progressive/Socialist agenda. And, like Bill Whittle, I fear it my be our last chance.

Team Obama is showing signs of desperation, and the blamecasting has already begun. First target? Rather surprisingly, it’s Bill Clinton. [T]here is one crucial way in which the 42nd president may not have served the 44th quite as well. In these final weeks before the election, Mr. Clinton’s expert advice about how to beat Mitt [...]

By now you’ve no doubt seen the latest Obama ego stroke: Now obviously Obama didn’t come up with this design himself; for starters, he’s neither clever nor creative enough to do so. But the people who did design the flag obviously know their target audience: Obama himself. Voters? Secondary, at most. When your customer is [...]

… but I’ve got no interest this week. If you want good commentary, try Ace, Jeff, Treacher, or Stacy. Or just go see everything at Twitchy. My mental facilities are on auto-pilot, when they’re working at all. I need to save what I’ve got for work. Perhaps I’m a bit brain-fried. Zombie-ish. So I suppose [...]

The next Vice President of the United States, Paul Ryan: College graduates should not have to live out their 20s in their childhood bedrooms, staring up at fading Obama posters and wondering when they can move out and get going with life. And… None of us have to settle for the best this administration offers [...]

It’s called “Take It Back” by Miracle of Sound (whose music I’ve linked before.) It’s got a made-of-awesome beat, and you could probably even dance to it. But the lyrics — which are actually about the situation the gamer faces in Mass Effect 3 — might just possibly be read an altogether different way… When [...]

Protein Wisdom commenter McGehee: Academics have always thought they should be in charge. They fancy themselves philosophers, and who was it that first posited the philosopher-king? Too much tenure, not enough hemlock. In response to “Supporting the 2nd Amendment is a Mental Disorder Say Connected Physicians”
Russ Emerson : If I could bottle the smell of my kitchen right now, I'd be richer than Croesus. Um... is "Croesus" on the IRS' hit list?
