http://machonachos.typepad.com/macho_nachosbra_tasty_tex/2005/10/physically_pain.html
A Tasty Tex-Mex Treat! Laquo; The Argument Not Answered. Physically Painful to Read". That's a good friend's assessment (he may feel free to take the credit, if he reads this story and so desires) of the most recent writing sample from Harriet Miers. It's hard to disagree. However, I know intellectual vapidity when I see it. Additionally, I've sat through more of my share of worthless diversity training, in which empty platitudes are repeated. An organization must also implement programs to fulfill strat...

Macho Nachos: The Argument Not Answered

A Tasty Tex-Mex Treat! Laquo; Oh. Well, Great. Physically Painful to Read ». The Argument Not Answered. Robert Bork gets it. He is one of the few, apparently, who do. Bork was on Hannity's radio program this afternoon, and when Hannity asked him why he opposed the nomination of Harriet Miers, Bork immediately hit on the reason that I have been advocating since day one - and which I have yet to hear any pro-nomination folks answer. Since the confirmation of Scalia and the elevation of Rehnquist, that hope...

First, in a genuine shocker, the generally detestable Donna Brazile wrote this. Who is this columnist, and what have they done with the real Donna Brazile? You ready to pay y...

If people want to disagree with me, that's fine. Even if they want to do it in a way that displays no class or ability to reason, that is also fine. What is not fine with me is worthless garbage like this. That denigrates the sincerity and conviction of others:. So, if you don't agree with my principles, or just ...

A Tasty Tex-Mex Treat! Laquo; Coalition of the Illin' Logo. Oh Well, Great. ». Columnist extraordinaire Jack Kelly. Has a post up today in which he analyzes some of the reaction to the Miers nomination. Among other things, his post extensively quotes a Freeper with inside information, who is one of the very few people I've seen to switch from being anti-Miers to pro-Miers (the number switching the other way seems to be growing.). Before it is even tried. It lends a little more credibility to what the moo...
