Michelle Malkin has a post-speech roundup of very respectable progressives who - having branded Palin a gender traitor - wallow in some pretty maniacal sexism. Exhibit A: Harry Reid’s snarling reaction to Palin’s speech:
Sarah Palin took a pointed shot at Reid in her high-stakes VP nomination speech. Palin noted that if Reid "can’t stand John McCain" — a recent Reid quote in a Las Vegas newspaper — then McCain must be doing something right in Washington...
Here’s Reid spokesman Jim Manley’s response, sent to Politico a few minutes ago: "Anyone who knows Sen. Reid knows he never backs down when he’s fighting for what’s right and that he always stands up to John McCain when he is wrong," Manley said. " Shrill and sarcastic political attacks may fire up the Republican base, but they don’t change the fact that a McCain-Palin administration would mean four more years of failed Bush-Cheney policies."

Joseph Lieberman, former Democrat turned Independent who votes with the Democratic Caucus about everything except National Security issues, backed John McCain for the presidency.
Barack Obama won the election the far far left liberal Democrats wanted Joe Lieberman "punished" by stripping his position as Chairman of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee, for daring to use his vote the way he thought best and after the Democratic caucus met, it was determined that Joe Lieber... more
So ol’ Joe gets to keep his chairmanship of the Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee, but (gasp!) he has lost his chair of the Environment and Public Works subcommittee. Typical of Democratic Senate activity under Harry Reid, this Lieberman affair took way too long to resolve, was way too circus-like, and made Senate leadership look, well, leaderless. Where, exactly, was Reid during all of this? Dodd, Bayh and other senators apparently were the main players in this... more

Someone keeps puking all over the bar, and then has the nerve to act smug about the smell. Wow, and just when Josh had come close to convincing me that Lutherans can be people too.
Richard: Â From that ornament description: “Commemorate John McCain’s historic choice of the first woman Vice-Presidential nominee, Sarah Palin.” Wait, was I dreaming that whole Geraldine Ferraro thing?
Tacky and stupid! Maybe I should get one for my new favorite Lutheran pastor!
Okay, cle... more
Sen. John McCain, whose presidential bid was snuffed out two weeks ago by Barack Obama, is setting up a political action committee as a first step in running for a fifth term in the Senate.

The spokesperson spoke anonymously because the decision had not yet been made public.... more

John Mayer was out dining with a male friend on Tuesday night at Wolfgang’s Steakhouse in Beverly Hills, where, although the private exit was ready for him, Mayer decided to leave out the front door - right into the sea of awaiting paparazzi.
As Mayer ducked into his awaiting BMW, his bodyguard pushed a photog to the ground and then briefly grabbed him by the throat.
E! then says:
The guard then hopped into the driver seat and whisked Mayer away as customers and employees ... more
The Israeli government has taken a sad but necessary step towards public diplomacy. The Prime Minister’s Office has posted video of the yeshiva massacre on YouTube. The first one is the emergency call - made by a terrified boy - that alerted Israeli authorities:
And then the terrible aftermath:
This massacre is one of hundreds of deliberate attacks on Israeli schoolchildren that the UN can’t quite bring itself to condemn. Because these little b... more
First it was Democratic military guru Wes Clark and his disturbingly familiar "New York money people" theory. Some people at the time suggested that he was getting his dual loyalty ideas from tomes of rank anti-Semitism like Protocols . That was an overreaction. It turns out that this is just the way Democratic military experts talk:
Last week, Barack Obama’s military adviser and national campaign co-chairman Merrill "Tony" McPeak accused former President Bill Clinton of "... more
Open anti-Semitic attacks are becoming something of a trend in the US. The recent drip drip drip of anti-Jewish violence contributes to a broader overall trend - the overwhelming majority of hate crimes in the US are against Jews:
Not only are anti-Islamic hate crimes way down, but they’re a fraction of overall religious hate crimes. The overwhelming majority of such crimes target Jews, something CAIR and other Muslim groups don’t seem all that concerned about. In 2006... more
A couple of years ago the Soviet Union fell and the Cold War ended. Among other radical changes in the global geopolitical order, Russia was supposed to stop counterbalancing the US by militarily bolstering Arab regimes in the Middle East. Somebody apparently didn’t get that memo:
Russia and Egypt are expected to sign a civilian nuclear cooperation agreement this week that will boost Cairo’s efforts to join a string of Sunni countries keen on developing nuclear potential... more
