There's one candidate on-stage in New Hampshire who believes that the free market – the real, honest-to-God free market, sans subsidies and global military intervention – should determine the price of energy resources. Guess who. UPDATE: That godd**n fool John...

Just in case Hillarycare doesn't cover unlimited horse tranquilizers, anybody know a good back-alley lobotomist? I don't know how I can tolerate such repugnant idiocy for so long with any capacity for logic or moral reasoning intact.

Whom to despise most? Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama, John Edwards, Joe Biden, Chris Dodd, Bill Richardson, the talking heads, or the whimpering audience of welfare-warfare half-wits? My mind changes as each opens his or her mouth. UPDATE: Holy sh*t, Joe Biden just...

In Iran. Surely you didn't think Michael Ledeen would rile up his yahoo readers by dissing America the virtuous, did you? Naw, Michael's been wavin' the Stars & Stripes, drinkin' Gallo, and dancin' to John Philip Sousa over there in Italy. Ain't nothin' wrong with the...

A U.S. soldier in Afghanistan describes his work: Yes . . . F---ING Yes!!! I LOVE MY JOB, it takes everything reckless and deviant and heathenistic and just overall bad about me and hyper focuses these traits into my job of running around this horrid place doing nasty...
