American Express did it. Now, it’s GMAC’s turn to wave the magic wand, rename itself a “bank holding company,” and go for its bite of the bailout pie: GMAC Financial Services (“GMAC”) today announced that it has submitted an application to the U.S. Federal Reserve Board of Governors for approval to become a bank holding [...]

Same old, same old.

You can catch me on Fox & Friends this morning at around 7:50am-ish Eastern. In the meantime, here’s something to wake you up: Egad! The Headband is back! It really is 1993 all over again.

Scroll down for updates… So, this is “progress?” eHarmony, a Christian-targeted dating website, gets sued by a gay man demanding that the business match him up with a same-sex partner. The New Jersey Attorney General intervenes on behalf of the gay plaintiff and forces eHarmony to change its entire business model. To be clear: The [...]

Bigot.

Don’t feed the troll. It is an abject waste of time, energy, and capital to do otherwise. *** Oogebedy-boogedy!

You can catch me on Neil Cavuto’s show today on FNC at around 4:10pm-ish Eastern. (Update: Allah’s posted the vid clip at Hot Air.) Or you can catch me on PJTV later today talking about “Conservatism 2.0″ with Instapundit Glenn Reynolds.

I had prayed before the election that I wouldn’t have to pay one more iota of attention to the pork-filled, cut-and-run smear merchant John Murtha. Our prayers, alas, were not answered. Now, this corruptocrat is trying to hide from justice in the Haditha slander lawsuits: A Marine who sued U.S. Rep. John Murtha for defamation [...]

Testing, testing…

Zoning out free speech.

Hubris.

My first syndicated column of the week today chronicles the insane rage of the anti-Prop. 8 mob that’s not on your newspaper front pages or nightly news. The lawsuits are piling up: “Four Bay Area counties are the latest to join the legal fight to try to stop state Proposition 8, a ban on same-sex [...]

Cult awareness.

The more things change…

Alaska’s GOP corruptocrat has lost his Senate re-election bid. Shouldn’t have taken so long. Not surprisingly, the entrenched, pork-stuffed politician refused to concede tonight: Senator Ted Stevens of Alaska was defeated in his bid for re-election on Tuesday. Mr. Stevens, a Republican and a 40-year incumbent, was trailing his Democratic challenger, Mayor Mark Begich of [...]

I promised a photo of my son’s Pikachu cake from last week. Couldn’t have done it without my daughter, who happily provided supplemental icing services when my hand conked out. Not the neatest job in the world, but the birthday boy was happy:

Question: How does a RINO secure a position in the Obama administration? Answer: Bash Rush Limbaugh. As his Senate career nears its end, Republican Chuck Hagel isn’t holding back when it comes to criticizing members of his own party — including conservative talk radio hosts. “We are educated by the great entertainers like Rush Limbaugh,” [...]

It’s on.

The wages of “diversity.”

“you have a clear constitutional duty…”

Well, ain’t that interesting: The Democrats have decided to let Joe Lieberman keep his Senate chairmanship. I have a feeling the nutroots aren’t going to like this lack of Change: Senator Joseph I. Lieberman, the Democrat-turned-independent from Connecticut, was allowed to keep his chairmanship of the Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs Committee on Tuesday despite [...]

Bok bok.

What a lying crapweasel. Asked about the dedication to RFK assassin Sirhan Sirhan and other “political prisoners” in the Weather Underground’s “Prairie Fire” manifesto (first unearthed by investigative Internet journalist Zombie), Bill Ayers denies that it’s true — then goes on to express his “regret” for singling out the killer.

Three words: Stupid people voted. Lots and lots of stupid people.

Foggy Bottom.

In your face. And other body parts.

Borrow, spend, repeat.

Watch your wallets.

Things that make you go “?$#@^&!!!”
