Hillary Fallout: If You’ve Lost Chris Matthews… (UPDATED)

Dirty Harry on Oct 31st 2007

 
UPDATE 5: I’m watching the roundtable on Brit Hume’s show.
Kondracke: She got nicked. Nothing fatal.
Krauthammer: This is not serious damage. She’s the only grown up in the field who’s reasonable on foreign policy.
Barnes: It was somewhere between a nick and mortally wounded. He also brought up the White House records. Release them or it becomes […]

Watch Hillary Transform Into Your First Wife…

Dirty Harry on Oct 31st 2007

Hot Air has the video. Three delicious minutes. As she’s pressed on the drivers license issue Hillary slowly gets shriller and shriLLER and SHRILLER until… Well, until you recognize the tone.
While I played the video here all the dogs on my block started barking.
The indispensible Michelle Malkin sums it up:
Hillary cruised through most of last […]

100 Most Influential Republicans

Dirty Harry on Oct 31st 2007

 
Yesterday over at Libertas I expressed my unending annoyance with top-whatever lists that include the absurd or insulting to call attention to themselves; lists that prefer attention to gravitas. And lo’ and behold we have another one: The Telegraph’s 100 Most Influential Republicans:
Oh and Larry Craig — who has no power,  no committee seats, is […]

R.I.P. Robert Goulet

Dirty Harry on Oct 31st 2007

But if I’d ever leave you,
It couldn’t be in autumn.
How I’d leave in autumn I never will know.
But it is autumn, Bob, and you did leave us. You left us just like Frank, Bing, Dino, Perry, Elvis, Sammy, and Nat, did… With no one to replace you.

Hillary Clinton’s Unforced Error

Dirty Harry on Oct 31st 2007

 
I didn’t watch the debate. I was spending $300 at Wal-Mart. On what, I don’t know. There is Season 1 of The Andy Griffith Show in there somewhere, but the rest seems to have disappeared. Anyway…
Jim Geraghty says Hillary won, hands down, no doubt about it.

The Democratic primary is over. Hillary Clinton ran away with […]

Live Blogging The Dem Debate

Dirty Harry on Oct 30th 2007

Nope, not me. Not tonight. I’m going to Wal-Mart. I don’t need anything from Wal-Mart, I just go because it pisses liberals off.
Check out Jim Geraghty over at TCS for the latest — good insight — and you need not watch. Whatcha’ call a twofer.

A George Carlin Joke

Dirty Harry on Oct 30th 2007

Don’t open me, bro…!
This news story reminded me of an old George Carlin joke about how studies show that scientists are leading cause of death of laboratory rats:
British marine biologists have found what may be the oldest living animal — that is, until they killed it.
Now it’s not anything other than the oldest animal killed by a […]

Mike Huckabee

After the last Republican debate I indicated I found Huckabee and his candidacy appealing.

POLL: 52% Support U.S. Military Strike On Iran

Dirty Harry on Oct 30th 2007

 
Wow. The American people do get it:
A majority of likely voters – 52% – would support a U.S. military strike to prevent Iran from building a nuclear weapon, and 53% believe it is likely that the U.S. will be involved in a military strike against Iran before the next presidential election, a new Zogby America […]

Britney Spears Knows How To Come Back

Dirty Harry on Oct 30th 2007

The secret to career resurrection in the entertainment industry isn’t regaining your popularity with the public, it’s pandering to the powers-that-be. Tom Cruise is an excellent example of this. After humiliating himself for a year with a series of stupid public appearances, Cruise’s career was pegged as one on the wane. That Mission Impossible III […]

Repubs Polls: Giuliani In Trouble?

Dirty Harry on Oct 30th 2007

Romney’s widening his lead in Iowa and New Hampshire. Giuliani’s barely hanging on in SC but staying strong in Florida.
If Romney beats Giuliani like a drum in Iowa and NH, the dynamic in the next set of states changes fast. Giuliani has to be a contender in at least one of those two states and he’s losing […]

Pollsters: Hillary Weakest of Three

Dirty Harry on Oct 30th 2007

Fascinating analysis:
Is this wishful thinking from a party and a movement on the ropes? Not according to pollsters. There are voters who have given up on the GOP over the last few years and utterly loathe the Clintons in general or Hillary in particular. Americans are aching to vote Democratic, and polls that test a […]

POLL: Hillary Flagging Against Repubs

Dirty Harry on Oct 30th 2007

Rasmussen shows that Hillary is losing steam against both Giluiani and Fred Thompson (emphasis mine):
The latest Rasmussen Reports national telephone survey shows former Mayor Rudy Giuliani leading Senator Clinton 46% to 44% in an early look at a general election match-up. Clinton has a 47% to 45% edge on another Republican hopeful, Fred Thompson.
These numbers […]

Common 9/11 Ground

Dirty Harry on Oct 30th 2007

 
As you watch Democrats flame out to hurt the war effort with ill-timed Congressional resolutions against our allies, defeatist news stories and films, and general bad behavior designed to dishearten a country at war, it is nice to know there’s a bottom somewhere. I was doubting there was a bottom to their bad behavior but these 9/11 […]

Thank Heaven Global Warming Is Bull…

Dirty Harry on Oct 30th 2007

…because if I truly believed it was going to get any warmer, I’d have to kill myself. Here it is nearly November and over the weekend we practically had to turn the air conditionings on because it was in the nineties. Even for SoCal that’s insane. Usually winters are tepid and comfortable.
I have zero tolerance […]

The Spitter

Dirty Harry on Oct 29th 2007

I only watch Chris Matthews during presidential elections because he’s more than a little creepy and plenty dumb. But come election time he has great guests and himself is a great indicator of the liberal mindset. If you want to know how the mainstream liberal’s thinking Matthew’s your guy. If you want to know how […]

Dems Help Iran Gain Nukes

Dirty Harry on Oct 28th 2007

Congressional Democrats are already going on record opposing any military strikes against Iran’s nuclear program:
Still reeling from the fallout of authorizing the Iraq war five years ago, Democrats in Congress are determined to put themselves early on record as opposing American military action in Iran.
In recent days, many Democrats have gone to great lengths to […]

Is Iraq al Qaeda’s Waterloo?

Dirty Harry on Oct 28th 2007

Via Powerline:
But al Qaeda upped the ante in Iraq by calling for international jihad and publicly proclaiming Iraq the central front in its war against civilization. Bin Laden thereby created an opportunity that would not otherwise have existed, to turn the war in Iraq into a more immediate turning point in our conflict with al […]

A Question About Heaven…

Dirty Harry on Oct 28th 2007

 
I wonder if in Heaven we fall asleep at night next to the one we love with reruns of Sanford and Son playing on the little television in the corner.
I wonder because it’s hard for me to imagine how it might get any better than that.

Halloween Weekend, Scary Movies

Dirty Harry on Oct 28th 2007

The Hot Little Number I Call Mrs. Harry and I scramble all week doing whatever needs to be done in order to have the weekend free. With the grocery shopping, house cleaning, and laundry done this leaves two whole days to do what we please and that is usually the enjoyment of our movie collection.
