OK, you people, I am sick and tied of this. The Americans with Disabilities Act is NOT being fairly applied. That’s right. You read that headline correctly. Conservative, white, male bloggers NEED a hand from Washington. In fact, I’d say we have a right to it. We are being discriminated against even from those on [...]

It’s been a while since I wrote about the guy who used to be Charles Johnson, who ran a really great blog called “Little Green Footballs,” back when that actually meant something good. It was a big influence on my decision to become a blogger, and I gave it a lot of links. But then [...]
My blogging has been slacking off of late, and there have been quite a few factors that have been slowing me down. But to be honest, a lot of them…
Ah, Democratic Underground. The greatest collection of lunatics, conspiracy nuts, frothing loons, blithering idiots, and hyperpartisan morons one can find outside of an insane asylum. They'd be dangerous if it…
Stunning news received in email this morning. Joshua Goldberg died of injuries sustained in a fall. He was the editor of Lucianne.com, Blogslucianneloves.com and The Connection. I knew the man…
If there's one thing that the Tucson shooting has provoked, it's a lot of people going back and flushing a whole bunch of stuff down the memory holes. History must…
Just a couple of quick notes adding to a few things I've said in the past few days. First up, I made a little error in my piece on the…
Recently, I had a bit of a flare-up in a series of skirmishes I've had with a "diarist" over at Daily Kos. As has happened more than once, I offended…
My colleague Rick has had a prolific morning, writing two stories that caught my attention — one here, and one on his own personal site. I find I agree with…

I'm in Las Vegas for Right Online, a conference of conservative bloggers, citizen activists, and well known conservative leaders. It all starts tomorrow morning and I'm very excited about it….
So what you're saying, Jay, is that conservatives should be wary about diving headlong into the lunatic fringe? To do otherwise would embracing a leopard-spandexed fantasy? And our voices carry?…

Wizbang might be a low seed, but dammit we'd make the dance. And you'd be forced to watch a commercial every two minutes. Who – other than the supremely handsome…
Ever read the Credits section here at Wizbang? It can be enlightening. For example, no one here is identified as a “writer”, did you notice that? Instead, we’re either “Emeritus”…
The system works… the system to cover your TSA arse:As the government reviews how an alleged terrorist was able to bring a bomb onto a U.S.-bound plane and try to…
(Man, blogging is like exercise. You let yourself get out of the habit, and it’s a killer to get back into it…) Ever since Charles Johnson formalized his abandonment of…
