A few weeks ago, the California Nurses Association asked me if I'd be willing to attend the insurance industry's version of Netroots Nation (AHIP) and do what I do... capture bad guys being deceitful, bad and ugly.

I, of course, leaped at the chance. (Shout out to

Barack Obama may get what he wishes for, 7 months early.

A viral campaign is underway that seeks to enlist people in the my.BarackObama.com group, Senator Obama - Please Vote Against FISA.

Allow me to explain.

A key plank of Barack Obama's candidacy platform has been civic engagement. His...

Check out this audio:

It's from Tammy Bruce's June 25, 2008 radio show. In it she complains that eBay banned her listing that tried to sell a genuine Nazi SS medal ("it even had some blood on the ribbon!").

Bruce, who has been known to brag...

An AP report just out:

Judge reluctant to wade into White House subpoena fight Congress was trying to be diplomatic when it brought an unprecedented lawsuit to settle its subpoena fight against the White House, a lawyer told a federal judge Monday. After all, lawmakers could've just arrested the...

Several weeks ago, I was clicking through John McCain's presidential campaign website. In the "Events" section I found a listing for a June 13 Townhall Meeting in Pemberton, New Jersey; I decided to attend.

McCain did not pick me out of the crowd to ask a question on live TV,...

On April 10, 2008, Justice Antonin Scalia was given an award at the University of Virginia. Scalia was a founder of the Federalist Society; while he was at the school, he spoke at a lunch for UVa Fed. Soc. members.

Guess what? I'm a member. I went.

Many of you know that I am a law student. Some of you know that I have enrolled in a class titled, "Race and Law." It has been an incredibly pertinent experience; the current contest for the Democratic presidential nomination has been layered with racial overtones.

Before taking the class,...

At YearlyKos, after the candidate's forum, I attended the Chris Dodd breakout session and asked a question about impeachment. I left unimpressed with the answer. Here's the exchange:

As you can see, there wasn't any room for wiggle; Dodd was opposed to...

God helps those who help themselves.

Soon, a rare opportunity to purchase radio spectrum and broadcast licenses will come open. These opportunities are limited to non-profits, which is a double edged sword.

I had an extensive conversation today with a radio insider. She sees a real opportunity for...

In the last month I've, through back channels, sent a suggestion to all of the top-tier 2008 Democratic candidates for president.

The thought occurred to me that, within the DOJ, you'll find a bunch of alphabet agencies tasked with this and that, but mostly the prosecution of brown people. For...

A funny thing happened today.

I spent the last two days at the Miller Center of Government Affairs at the University of Virginia. They hosted a conference that brought together a multitude of what the elite consensus considers to be our nation's leading National Security authorities.

First, go watch this.

As many of you know, right now I live in Charlottesville, Virginia. It's a unique state -- you can't help but to feel connected to the land and to other Virginians, even if you are somewhat of an interloper from New York. There's a certain...

It's just not sound science.

Yeah, that's what I expected to hear when I went to a Federalist Society's event that featured Myron Ebell of the Competitive Enterprise Institute.

Well, that's not what he said. I'm not really sure what he said, actually. And I think...

Everyone is here... Michelle Malkin. Ann Coulter. Newt Gingrich. Duncan Hunter. Mitt Romney. Jeff Gannon. Sam Brownback. Melanie Morgan. John O'Neill... Oh so many heroes of the right...

And me.

And let me tell you - they've really turned out impressive support. At a time when the conservative agenda polls...

Is it time we start asking who negotiated for the Nevada State Democratic Party re: the Fox-sponsored Democratic Presidential Primary debate? Was this mediated by Clinton partisans?

From Monday's NYT:

As a senator from New York, Mrs. Clinton has built an alliance with some former critics like Rupert...

On Sunday, January 14, I was waiting in the Reliable Sources' Green Room. I couldn't find a public listing of the other guests before I got there, so I was pleasantly surprised when Jonah Goldberg showed up. His segment preceded mine.

Jonah's segment finished, and I still had a few...

At times, the KSFO special radio afternoon was uproarious and side-splitting. At other times, it was darkly disturbing. Sometimes, it was both at the same time.

Unfortunately, "honest," "serious," and "relevant" aren't adjectives that immediately spring to mind after listening to KSFO hosts Melanie Morgan, Brian Sussman, "Occifer Vic"...

Most of you know that Disney owns ABC. ABC, of course, owns the ABC Radio Network. Finally, ABCRN owns KSFO, a hate-radio talker in San Francisco. Common to every level of the corporate chain is an abiding affinity...

I read. A lot. About politics.

Over the summer I read about George Allen's troubles with common decency, and in particular, race. I learned that Allen opposed an official celebration for Martin Luther King's birthday, but he supported an official celebration of the Confederacy. He sought out, and posed for...
