Iowahawk’s latest is a genre-blending time warp tour de force lampooning left-wing totalitarian mind control. It took me back to my fourth/fifth grade classroom at Fairburn Elementary School in Westwood in Los Angeles. My teacher was Ruth Utsunomiya, a petite and beautiful Japanese-American in her late 20’s or early 30’s who told us she and …

Left Blogistan is gloating about how to interview persons attending the Tea Party protests on April 15 to make them look like fools and bigots. I was a reporter for two years of my well-spent youth for the Harford Democrat in Maryland. I have some advice. Here’s how to give an interview at your Tea …

Ignore Meghan McCain on gay marriage at your peril, G.O.P.
On my daily rounds I came across one or two blogs denouncing Meghan McCain, which is not unusual, but somehow my curiosity was piqued. Anyway, I clicked through on the links and found — you are shocked, I’m sure — that I am delighted with Ms. McCain’s explanation of why she supports gay marriage and …

Politico reports Ross Douthat 'will fill an important hole'
You just can’t make this stuff up. Faux conservative/twerp vérité Ross Douthat, whose collection of contemporary porn from the last 60 years is one of his own favorite column topics, is the subject of a lengthy profile today by Michael Calderone at Politico in celebration of Douthat’s replacing Bill Kristol as the token conservative on the …

Because this is the kind of vindictive bitch that I am
In this post I propose that conservative organizations and wealthy conservatives put their wallets together and provide Robert Stacy McCain with a VERY prosperous and steady income so he can focus full-time on the conservative networking and mentoring of conservative bloggers he does through his blog, The Other McCain. I wrote it 10 days ago …

Girls, girls, girls! This is a CONSERVATIVE Jell-o wrestling match and proper attire will be worn at all times!
OK, I did not think it would be up to me as a lesbian to have to gavel the conservative blogosphere back to to order regarding the upcoming Jell-o wrestling grudge match between Suzanne Logan (aka “Clever S. Logan) and Monique Stuart (aka HotMES), but I see that I must! Order! Order! This blogosphere must …
You no playa da game, you no maka da rules
Charles Winecoff at Big Hollywood has lots of thoughts on the lesbian and gay community and gay marriage tonight. He asks, “When did the gay community get so mean?” Charles, I came out in 1972 and I have a question for you: “When was the gay and lesbian community EVER nice?” Because I can’t think …

Wolverines!!!!!
I am a Wolverine, in the University of Michigan, “Hail to the Victors Valiant” sense, so when the Wolverines meme got rolling, it caught my eye. I think it started on Feb. 14 with a National Review Online list of the top 25 conservative movies here, which listed Red Dawn at number 15. In this …
How to turn around blighted neighborhoods for free, the conservative way
As a minority, lesbians and gays have few, if any, friends and allies willing to expend political capital on our behalf — although other minorities accept all the golden eggs we produce for them with endless handfuls of gimme and mouths full of “much obliged.” We also have less family support than any other minority …

Adoption for lesbians and gays doesn't mean what social conservatives think it means
I have the impression, from a very small sample of evangelical families, including one I have known many years, that their religious leaders urge them to adopt children as a way of adding more converts to their flock. I expect, if this is true, that they press this cause in more idealistic terms. But, from …
