9/12 March update: the Left is getting scared
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 […]
9/12 Rally liveblogging — kickoff meeting
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 […]
Obligatory in-flight blogging post
Now that American Airlines has in-flight WiFi, it has become de rigueur to write at least one blog post while in flight. Well, here’s mine, at 35000 feet over, well, some state on the route from Denver to Dallas. That’s it. ..bruce w..
Countdown to 9/12 — Tuesday links

Carnival of the Posters
The Obama/Joker image (above) was just the start. Combined with the “fishy e-mail” snitching request on the White House blog — a request of dubious legality and unquestionable bad taste — there are more images and videos coming out of the woodwork. The Obama/Joker poster above may have been inspired by this one from last […]
Wednesday earning
MORNING LINKS — yeah, I’m up early ITEM: Jim Lindgren over at the Volokh Conspiracy does the simple investigation that no news organization (except possibly Fox) seems willing or able to do. His finding: states with the highest unemployment rates have high tax and unionization rates, while states with the lowest unemployment rates have low […]
Monday churning
[For those of you coming in from Ace of Spades HQ, here’s the Atlas Shrugged review.] AFTERNOON LINKS ITEM: Visualization is always a good thing. The Heritage Foundation graphically illustrates the minuscule nature of Obama’s proposed — and far from realized — cuts (hat tip to Instapundit): MORNING LINKS — things are heating up a […]
