Undermining the RNC-——sounds like a devious neo scheme to me.

Which affords us the opportunity of identifying them. There is always a silver lining. :-)

Yep. I even do that around here.

Amazing << Hear this. Feel this, and tell me that this isn't music.

Hey Barack HUSSEIN Obama, I went to Harvard too! That was the worst fieldtrip of my life, but I went there...

Yes, just another has-been (never was) trying to get publicity and court relevance by picking a fight with Rush.

Sad.

I heard the Levin interview. It was hard to listen to, because his prissy, whiny little voice kept trying to talk over TGO. Finally, Mark had to lower his voice in order to make any points. And he whined about that too.

Is Dave in fact a fraternity alum? If not, I’d like F. Lee to apologize...to me and my brethren.

Seriously, Dave, would you do all of us a favor and stop calling what you’re pushing “conservatism that can win”? Because, and I say this not as an insult but as simple, undebatable fact, it’s neither conservatism nor even, judging by recent performance, particularly successful.

Be careful, sis. There might be a neo hiding under your bed!

On Tuesday evening, the radio host Mark Levin opened his show with an angry shouted 10-minute monologue in which he called me (among other choice terms) a “putz,” an “a-hole,”a “frat boy,” “irrelevant,” and - ouch! - “this Canadian.”

And Mark is absolutely correct...

Frum is a Boiling Frog Republican. They somehow think if they kiss up to liberals they will somehow be spared. They’re wrong.

(RNC conference call today...they are finally a little afraid of us:))

http://campaignspot.nationalreview.com/

However, the state chairman was worried about long-term fallout from Steele’s tiff with Rush Limbaugh.

“A tremendous number of Rush’s listeners are GOP donors, and they’re fragile donors. Will they come back? The worst thing Rush did is speculate that his listeners wouldn’t donate. That was a huge signal [to listeners]. That was damaging to us, and that’s the real carnage from that fight, not Michael Steele’s reputation.”

I hope he reads your post.

If he can’t handle being a conservative, he should stop pretending to be one.

Start your own party, David.

Lordy, I hope so. What I think they miss is that we are not about power at any price. We're about the country, the Constitution, things they don't seem to care about at all any longer.

We have guys on the battlefield getting shot at for this country. Surely they can be willing to take a little flak.

So what’s your point, you putz?

I don’t know Mark Levin. But I know Frum. He’s an oleaginous, untrustworthy careerist, always alert to puffing himself up where he can and covering his own ass where he must.

There’s a reason that Jerry Pournelle always refers to David Frum on Chaos Manor as “The egregious Frum”. Since the ‘90’s, which shows you how long the little weasel was doing this!

I don’t think Obama even wants to “remake” the United States into a socialist state.

I think he wants to KILL all the white people in America, through economic chaos, freezing, starving, terrorist attack, etc.—and is willing to see a lot of black people die, too, if that’s what it takes.

Just as he is happy to see most black pregnancies end in murder, just as long as white babies are murdered, too.

I listened to the “debate” on Levins website. Ultimately Frum was muttering about the need for health care, the environment and global warming....Liberal Lite will save the Republicans according to Frum...Sheesh, what a meathead.
