What bungle?

The New Neo Posted on November 13, 2012 by neoNovember 13, 2012

Drudge’s headline for this story reads, “Despite Benghazi bungle, Susan Rice favored for Secy of State.” My response is: what Bengahzi bungle? Rice did exactly what she was told and what the administration intended. That was no bungle, that was … Continue reading →

Melanie Phillips…

The New Neo Posted on November 13, 2012 by neoNovember 13, 2012

…has never been one to mince words. And she sure doesn’t do so here: The greatest satisfaction today over the re-election of Obama is not being felt in the Democratic Party. It is not being felt among the media, who … Continue reading →

Ace is correct about the effect economic hardship had on this election…

The New Neo Posted on November 12, 2012 by neoNovember 12, 2012

Lessons learned from this election

The New Neo Posted on November 10, 2012 by neoNovember 11, 2012

Why has Obama been so negative throughout his 2012 campaign?

The New Neo Posted on November 5, 2012 by neoNovember 5, 2012

Why, Republicans made him do it, don’t you see, by lying about him. But all that nastiness wasn’t really comfortable for Obama, don’t you see, and so his heart wasn’t in it: The key to understanding the Obama enigma of … Continue reading →

CBS could have proved that Obama refused to call Benghazi “terrorism”

The New Neo Posted on November 5, 2012 by neoNovember 5, 2012

The best revenge…

The New Neo Posted on November 3, 2012 by neoNovember 3, 2012

…for what? For having more money than the members of Obama’s audience, of course. Romney’s rich, and the rich are the enemy—unless they’re Democrats. Barack Obama, such a likeable guy. Any other questions?

The New Neo Posted on November 3, 2012 by neoNovember 3, 2012

The Las Vegas Review-Journal…

Wordsmiths for Obama: redux

The New Neo Posted on November 2, 2012 by neoNovember 2, 2012

[NOTE: Some of the comments on today’s earlier post about Noonan, Obama, and narcissism made me remember the following piece. I wrote it back in June of 2008 to explain the phenomenon of why so many wordsmiths were so taken … Continue reading →
