Brave New Films Bravely Fails in Koch “Setup”

by T.L. James | 11:45 am, November 13, 2011

Oops. “Truth-telling” filmmaker Robert Greenberg needs to find less-inept assistants. Apparently, in trying to “prove” that the Kochs are “unresponsive” to critics, Greenberg’s team made several phone calls to a Koch number in rapid succession, leaving a recorded message each time — and in a couple of cases, accidentally recording themselves after they thought they’d [...]

Occupy Denver Invades BlogCon 2011…

by T.L. James | 3:41 pm, November 11, 2011

…And is shouted down and mocked mercilessly. They really shouldn’t have taken on Steven Crowder.

UPDATE: Tony Katz doesn’t take kindly to a protester trying to interrupt his radio show later in the day:

An Inconvenient Halloween Short Story

by T.L. James | 9:00 pm, October 30, 2011

This story was originally inspired by Walter Russel Mead’s article on Bill McKibben’s collection of science fiction short stories aimed at scaring the public (er, ‘shaping an emotional response’) over global warming. I was too busy to finish it when it was actually topical, unfortunately, so I am publishing it instead as a scary story suitable for Halloween.  NOVEMBER 7, 2500: Seasons formed [...]

Occupy Toledo!

by T.L. James | 3:32 pm, October 17, 2011

So I’m walking down the street in Toledo (the one in Spain) on Saturday, and I suddenly find myself in the middle of a protest. Near as I can tell from cognates, it was something related to the Occupy Wall Street crap but translated into Spanish. Naturally, I had to play reporter and get some [...]

Since 9/11

by T.L. James | 3:31 pm, September 11, 2011

I think like most Americans old enough to remember 9/11, I remember it almost moment by moment, as clear as if it had happened yesterday. Which makes it strange to think that it’s been ten years now — I remember it more clearly than a lot of news events that happened in the past year [...]

Rep. Mike Coffman Town Hall Meeting, Featuring MoveOn Hecklers

by T.L. James | 10:19 pm, August 28, 2011

Here is the full video from yesterday morning’s town hall meeting in Littleton. A local MoveOn.org organizer was trying last week to get people to show up and ask questions featuring the inane mantra “Jobs Not Cuts” — as you’ll see, a couple people worked it into their questions/statements, and the rest just heckled in [...]

Final Shuttle Flight Thoughts

by T.L. James | 7:16 pm, July 10, 2011

I’ve been offline for most of the past week with DSL issues, so didn’t get to see any of the coverage of the final Shuttle launch until this afternoon. Haven’t yet found the ET “death camera” footage (though someone at a wedding I attended yesterday mentioned having seen it), but here’s the normal launch-through-sep version [...]

‘Wrong, But Accurate!’

by T.L. James | 9:31 pm, June 6, 2011

Charles Johnson says he won’t apologize for treating the Weiner Twitter scandal as a phony ‘nontroversy’ fabricated by Andrew Breitbart now that Weiner has admitted to it, because…umm…Andrew Breitbart is dishonest and sleazy. And even if Breitbart’s right, being sleazy makes him wrong. Or something. If anyone actually cares. ADDED: HotAir has a clip just released by ABC [...]
