“Millennial elitist dorks are all about screwing up burgers.”

September 27, 2018September 20, 2018 Steve MacDonald

Kurt Schlichter mourns the demise of the Ultimate ‘normal’ American food. Millennial elitist dorks are all about screwing up burgers. “Gourmet” burgers, they call them. But they are a sad simulacrum of true burgers, and a crime against nature. The menus of those precious gastropubs that spring up in the gentrified blue coastal urban centers are … Read more

Why Haven’t We Written About the Passing of John McCain?

June 21, 2021September 3, 2018 Steve MacDonald

Dan Williams aka, Hunter Dan, IM’d me on Facebook. “Why in the hell haven’t you guys posted even ONE story about the passing of the great American hero, John McCain?!?!?!” (Punctation in original.)

One More Wack At Dartmouth and the Ruling Class Elite

September 26, 2018June 10, 2018 Steve MacDonald

A recent survey of Dartmouth Students got ample attention from me here and here, but Jack Kerwick, writing at Townhall.com, combed through it here and I wanted to share his conclusion because it distills the noisy narratives down to a moment of clarity.

In summary, the Dartmouth survey establishes the truth of three propositions:

(1)Republican students are overwhelmingly outnumbered by Democrats at Dartmouth.

Elitist Ruling Class One-Percenter, Jeanne Shaheen’s “Das Hospital!”

December 17, 2020February 4, 2014 Steve MacDonald

New Hampshire Senator Jeanne Shaheen almost sounds as if she has traded her copy of Karl Marx’ Das Kapital for Adam Smiths ‘Wealth of Nations.’ She actually said, “...people who are willing to pay more, that they have that option of going to their doctor and hospital no matter what.“

The Divine Right of Democrats

September 26, 2018April 10, 2012 Steve MacDonald

From DaTecguy’s blog, an excellent post on Neo-crats–my word not his. He compares the Old Democrats to the new with a little help from some other great sources…

When Democrats lose, that’s not a coup, that just means you lost this years elections. Don’t blame it on the Koch brothers, Halliburton or anyone else, sometimes the voters don’t like you. The Republicans spent 40 years in the wilderness until Election 1994 (Congressional elections not Presidential ones) — not one Republican thought of changing the rules or the constitution.

It has been ever so, when the GOP took the congress in 1994 Peter Jennings called it a temper tantrum, for eight years the left insisted that George Bush was not legit and when in 2010 the voters threw out the democrats America is dumb.

I’ve been writing about the elites and Feudalism since 2009. Because they see them selves as our betters their actions are no surprise.

Palin v. Elites

September 26, 2018June 11, 2011 Steve MacDonald

There are plenty of Republicans and Independents out there who have either gotten lazy and simply adopted the lefts narrative on Palin or who are actual snobby-right-wing elites protecting the moderate Republican power base. I’ve not much of a stomach for either. So if you feel like tossing out some of that left wing elitist narrative just be prepared to back it up.

He Went To Do Good And Stayed To Do Well

September 26, 2018July 20, 2010 Steve MacDonald

The saying is that "he went to Washington to do good and stayed to do well" and the first name that popped into my mind was Charlie Bass. C-Bass epitomizes this ruling class cultural maxim. He promised you term limits then changed his mind. He became a Main Streeter, moderate fence sitters who abandoned principle … Read more

Read This Now

August 26, 2019July 19, 2010 Steve MacDonald

No, not my latest essay. I’m not that arrogant. I’m referring to (This!) by Angelo M. Codevilla at the American Spectator. Every one should read it. Everyone. Here’s the opening and I will leave you to trust me or not. As over-leveraged investment houses began to fail in September 2008, the leaders of the Republican … Read more
