Rightist Organizers
Almost wrote “day 6″ up there, but then realized I was a bit ahead of myself. Arrived in St. Thomas (USVI) relatively early this morning — around 7:30 or so. Sandra and I opted for a bit more leisurely activity today: a bus tour of parts of Charlotte Amalie (the capital of St. Thomas) and [...]
I’d like to post more, but the onboard ‘net access is expensive, slow, and flaky. Great sessions today: Jay Nordlinger interviewing Fred Thompson and John Sununu about running for president; a rather frank panel discussion on the potential 2012 Republican candidates involving John Miller, Tony Blankley, John Fund, Mona Charen, Robert Costa, and Raph Reed; [...]
I’m posting this entry from 30,000 feet (and how quickly that has become commonplace). My sweet wife Sandra and I are sailing on the National Review Cruise tomorrow — seven days of traveling around the Caribbean while listening to and hobnobbing with people like Mark Steyn, Fred Thompson, Jonah Goldberg, Victor Davis Hanson, James Lileks, [...]

Finally got this uploaded to YouTube. This is a video my wife shot yesterday of the ‘lefty plant‘ walking away from the Denver Tea Party, surrounded by folks mocking him — and almost all of whom have cameras of some kind trained on him. ..bruce w..

My sweet wife Sandra attended the Denver Tea Party today (I had to stay home due to work; hey, gotta pay those bills somehow). She reported no attempts to disrupt and only the one sign above (like anyone believes that Tea Partiers believe 9/11 was an inside job). UPDATE: Here’s video of said “lefty plant” [...]
…oh what a beautiful day! McDonnell wins in Virginia by nearly a 20% margin; ditto for the Republican candidates in the Lt. Governor and State Attorney General races. Christie wins in New Jersey in spite of Democratic control of the state top to bottom. And, of course, Obama isn’t watching the returns. Went to New [...]
In one of Glenn Reynolds’ posts today, he quoted what is probably the best-known line from “Serenity”: “I am to misbehave.” So I dug up the trailer for “Serenity”, thinking to excerpt that quote and post it here. Except . . . the whole trailer reads eerily (in hyperbolic mashup terms) like the growing conservative [...]
Heh. Two big signs that the Left is getting really worried about the 9/12 March scheduled for tomorrow. First, a (phony) bomb threat was called in to the FreedomWorks offices this afternoon: On the eve of what organizers call a ‘Big Ol’ TEA Party’, the Washington, D.C., offices of FreedomWorks were evacuated by DC Metro [...]

Sandra and I are sitting here in the DC Armory, a venerable (not aging well) structure out by RFK Stadium. This is where this morning’s kickoff meeting for the 9/12 Taxpayer March on the Capitol is taking place. This meeting is only for the truly committed. First, it’s taking place Thursday morning, even though the [...]
