If I take a rock, and in the other hand I take a large hammer, and I hit the rock with the hammer,

John McCain said at the GOP debate two days ago: “I’ll rely on people to judge me by the company that I keep.”

The company John McCain keeps:

Lots going on as regards John McCain, and people’s perceptions thereof. I see Jonah Goldberg essentially saying ‘he’s not so bad’. I see also, by way of Billy Hollis at Q&O that he’s joined a group of folks saying

• Nice to see Billy made it home. By the way, Billy, I caught the Blue Man Group in HD the last few days, and the show had a fairly close clip of the light control desk. Wild… I’ve seen audio

As it stands, as of Noon 20 January next, well have a President who does not believe in personal liberty.  I find that thought more chilling than this morning’s ice storm.

Hugh Hewitt says it not over and will not be over even after Super Tuesday.   Now it is clear that Mike Huckabee is running to spoil Mitt Romney’s chances and to garner a shot at Veep.  While the Huckster is

So uttered to me this morning.   The good news, is  that we don’t have Dorothy’s twister.   The bad news, it is far colder than a summer day in Kansas.   The morning fish wrapper said the peak wind speed should be

• I see where Romney and McCain are trading insults, both saying to one another, that they’re liberal. Of course, long term readers of this blog will understand something many other have not yet… they’re both correct.

I am impressed by the Michelle Malkin’s army.   One of Michelle’s readers nailed John McCain for having open borders and anti-security advocate Dr. Juan Hernandez on his campaign.

A few facts.

Dr. Juan Hernandez is a Mexican citizen.

Well, John McCain was endorsed by the New York Times, as we mentioned here the other day. As if that isn’t enough indication of how bad the guy would be, Michelle says he’s now been endorsed by Gerry Rivers, or
