• Larry Correia is pissed — and that’s good

  Two magnificent rants about the election from one of my favorite authors, Larry Correia, author of the Monster Hunter series. First up, his post-election rant, "Congratulations, Obama voters":

  Bread and Circuses’ is the cancer of democracy, the fatal disease for which there is no cure. Democracy often works beautifully at [...]

  I hope they get soaked so they can be just as "patriotic" as we are...

  Obama wants the rich to pay more taxes than they are right now.

  Boehner is okay with the government collecting more revenue, but is against any hike in rates.

  So the hot idea is that a compromise [...]

  Here we go: the rapid response brigades are launching their acts of repudiation.  Gee, sounds familiar.  Where else have we seen these tactics employed?

  Question of the day:  if anyone deemed "morally reprehensible" deserves to be boycotted, shouldn't Castrolandia be at the top of the list?    Correct answer: Of' [...]

  A blog recommended by Luis -- with a really cool name in Latin, Vox Clamantis in Deserto (A Voice Crying in the Desert) -- has what I think is the best post-election rant of all:

• USA Today: “Mr. Obama, make room for more Cubans!”

  Number of comments: 3
  

  Buried at the end of this article is a gem: while most of the space is aptly dedicated to unmasking the phony travel "reforms" recently announced by Castrolandia, the last few paragraphs unmask the intended end of these so-called "revorms," which is to increase the number of Cuban welferianos [...]

  Yes, you knew this was coming too.

  Judy Gross is now saying that conservative Cuban exile politicians have prevented the release of her husband.  She also says that President B.O. can now afford to ignore those intransigent trolls and make a swap for the Cuban Five.

  Verry Interresting....  A few days after BO is re-elected as president, the Washington Post runs this Associated Press report on how the embargo is hurting U.S. businesses.

  I've been at a loss of words this week, a highly unusual state of being for me, yet, here I am.

  There is a question going around and around in my head that I can't seem to answer...where do we go from here?

  A whole lot of people that I know just [...]

• “Americans are the brokest brokey-broke losers who ever lived…”

  Number of comments: 1
  

  I have been calling it the event horizon ... Steyn is calling it "The Edge of the Abyss".
