Here’s a thread for discussing debate number three, which takes place tonight at 9:00 PM Eastern Time. I have a family event to attend and won’t be watching, although I might be home in time to see the very end … Continue reading →

Ah, those fickle women voters
That’s what Obama must be thinking. What struck me when I read this article was how many of the women interviewed focused on bits and pieces of things without looking at the whole picture or even the bigger picture, and … Continue reading →
A suggestion to Romney for the 3rd debate
In the second debate Obama ordered somebody—Crowley, Romney, all of us?—to “get the transcript” of his Rose Garden speech. So maybe Romney should oblige, and say something like this: Mr President, last week during our debate you told the American … Continue reading →
Follow up: was there collusion between Obama and Crowley?
I admit at the outset I don’t know the answer. But I wonder why no one in the MSM is asking the questions. I take that back; I don’t wonder. I don’t think they want to know. But if I … Continue reading →
Romney does stand-up
And very very well, too: And let me just say, at the risk of being thought shallow, that nobody can do white tie like Romney can do white tie. As he acknowledged: “It’s nice to finally relax and wear what … Continue reading →
At the risk…
…of becoming a bloody bore on the topic of Crowley, Obama, the debate, and Benghazi—even more than I may have already done—please bear with me for one more post. When I took another look at the text of Obama’s Rose … Continue reading →

And you know what we forgot…
…amidst the brouhaha about whether Obama called the Benghazi attack an “act of terror” in his Rose Garden speech, and whether Candy Crowley overstepped, and all that jazz? We forgot that Obama never answered that guy’s question. We forgot—but the … Continue reading →
I missed last night’s New England earthquake
There was an earthquake yesterday at 7:12 PM in southern Maine (no, that’s not a typo). It measured 4.0 on the Richter scale and was felt over a wide area. I didn’t feel it at all, though. I was in … Continue reading →
And here’s how the left “fact-checks” Candy Crowley’s “fact-check”
[NOTE: Please read this post of mine first, if you’re unfamiliar with what happened last night when moderator Candy Crowley purported to fact-check Obama’s Rose Garden speech after Benghazi.] It never pays to be naive about the left. And I … Continue reading →
Candy Crowley’s Big Lie of a “fact-check”
[NOTE: I couldn’t post last night during the debate because I was driving home from New York City and listening to it on the radio. So I’m a bit late to the non-party.] First, the debate: seemingly a draw. But … Continue reading →
