Conservatism Is Dead
We don’t know when it happened, whether it was late in 2008, or if it was early in 2009, but one thing is certain. Conservatism is dead. Those reliable sources and lauded laureates of conservatism are either dead or irrelevant. William F. Buckley, Jr. died last year, and took with him some o[...]

McCain Names Jindal as VP; Claims First Ever White/Black Republican Ticket
John McCain announced that he has chosen Bobby Jindal, that rascally first-term governor from the Pelican State, to run as Vice President. As he gingerly put his arm around Jindal, and rubbed his head, he was heard remarking, “look, mom, I told you it wouldn’t rub off.” McCain wen[...]
