The Daley Gator: Ah, the best part of the Biden persona on display. Here is a guy that is, well, not all that bright, yet, he acts as though he is the smartest man ever to speak.

Steve: Michigan’s unemployment rate is 15.3% and all Governor Granholm can say is go green?

Dr. Dave: Howard Fineman’s “of course Obama is much smarter than us” makes Chris Matthews’ “thrill up my leg” seem like an amateur man crush.

Lew Rockwell: Al may become the first man to rip-off a cool billion through government carbon tyranny. When a man becomes rich in the market, it is because he has been highly successful in serving consumers. When a hereditary member of the power elite like Gore becomes even richer through the state, it means he has been very successful in pushing the faces of consumers into the mud ... What a monster.

"I would remind you that extremism in the defense of liberty is no vice!" - Barry Goldwater

The Camp of the Saints: I know I'm going to get in trouble with some of the ladies out there for writing this ...

HotMES: And, this right here epitomizes what I hate so much about Meghan McCain. She always claims to be speaking for her generation or her party, or blonds, or fat chicks, or even McCains, for that matter. STFU, already! Stop thinking that you’re so all knowing that you can speak for everyone. You can barely speak for yourself, moron ... If anyone loved her, they would shut her up and save her from herself.

TrogloPundit: The Lions had already declared war on Islamic terrorists, but they’ve only won one game in the last two seasons. Nobody’s afraid of them anymore.

Todd Seavey: For those with TV reception, it’s also the first night of the remake TV series V, about Earth’s friendly new extraterrestrial overlords turning out to be sinister reptilians — and the series is more timely than ever, given that nowadays, there are a few deranged conspiracy theorists ... who think our leaders really are reptilian-human hybrids ... The man who started the whole reptilian conspiracy theory, David Icke, has been accused of being inspired by anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, though once a man is claiming that subterranean reptiles rule the planet, I’m not sure it makes sense to criticize him for secretly harboring something as mundane as anti-Semitic sentiment.

"All [zoos] actually offer to the public in return for the taxes spent upon them is a form of idle and witless amusement, compared to which a visit to a penitentiary, or even to a State legislature in session, is informing, stimulating and ennobling." - H. L. Mencken

Southern Avenger: I don’t know much about economics. What I do know is that so many so-called “experts,” including politicians and economists, are wrong far more often than they are right. They’re wrong about virtually everything, and yet shamelessly keep selling the same old fairy tales. They are liars. They are cheats. They are whores.

BoomerJeff: Conservative Republicans win more elections than so-called “moderates,” yet the moderates always seem to gain more power and influence within the party than their election performance entitles them to. When a genuine Conservative is nominated they fall silent, or even throw their support to the Democrat.

Richard Ebeling: We need to emphasize the threat that Big Government represents to all our freedom -- including the right of freedom of movement -- and which should be remembered on this 20-year celebration of the fall of the Berlin Wall ... Unfortunately, the Collectivist mentality did not end with either the fall of the Berlin Wall or the collapse of communism in the former Soviet Union. It remains alive and well in America and around the world, with its insistance that the individual lives for and is to be sacrificed to "interests" of the state.

Ken: If you would have asked me when New Jersey was going to elect a conservative I would have told you “when pigs fly”.

"It can not even be said that the State has ever shown any disposition to suppress crime, but only to safeguard its own monopoly of crime." - Albert Jay Nock

Jason: The Liberal Paradigm: Always in need of sheep so that there may be shepherds.

Bill Quick: I love the way she throws Ann Coulter in their teeth.

"Shoe Leather" McCain: If a Hollywood producer were casting for the role of a revolutionary hero, no talent agent would send Doug Hoffman to the audition. Yet the Hoffman congressional campaign has ignited a revolution within the Republican Party, the results of which are already being felt.

Bill Anderson: It is impossible to read anything in the New York Times without seeing both articles and editorials demanding an expansion of the authoritarian state. Today’s edition does not disappoint in that regard ... As often is the case with stories like this, a member of Congress is introducing a bill ... Was the reporter working hand-in-glove with someone from Congress? Perish the thought! Everyone knows that the NY Slimes is INDEPENDENT and does not kowtow to politicians.

Doug Macatonis: Over the past 30 years, America has seen Presidential scandals ranging from Watergate to Iran-Contra to Travel-gate, Whitewater, the Lewinsky scandal, and the Valerie Plame affair. We’ve learned the truth about some of the truly nefarious actions undertaken by some of most beloved Presidents of the 20th Century, including the iconic FDR, JFK, and LBJ. And, yet, despite all of that, Americans still have a reverential view of the President of the United States that borders on the way Englishmen feel about the Queen or Catholic’s feel about the Pope.

If one rejects laissez faire on account of mans fallibility and moral weakness, one must for the same reason also reject every kind of government action." - Ludwig von Mises
