Ernesto Portillo Jr. had a small bit on me this morning castigating me for castigating the Star. Even better, he spelled my last name right. If they misspelled my name in an item about misspellings, a smart ass like me would have had a field day.
I think Portillo missed my point though. I have heard [...]
A correspondent wrote me to point out something a bit odd about Patty Weiss’s list of endorsements. For obvious reasons, this person’s name cannot be known at this time.

Lefty Progressive Pooh-bah Kevin Spidel has revealed the name of the mysterious individual who wishes to run against Jim Pederson in the Democratic primary: former Senator John Verkamp.

Anyhow, Rep. Linda Sánchez used the following chestnut, which she has apparently used before. Those of you that have seen her sister Loretta speak will know that she always [...]
Over at Spidelblog, Lefty Pooh-bah Kevin Spidel reported last week that there is a former state legislator who is planning on running against Jim Pederson. I did what I am obligated to do as my admiring (or obsessive) public expects me to do: I asked around. I found out…
…almost nothing.
Some speculation was afoot that it [...]
Judge Raner Collins has rejected the latest legislative plan to help English language learners as insufficient and a violation of federal law. I guess it is back to the drawing board for the legislative leaders. Note for next time: if you are ordered to fund English language learning, it might be helpful to pass a [...]
Nice to see the President is promoting from within the White House.
In the last week or so, two leaders in the Border Guardians have been in the news showing just the sort of people they are. The Border Guardians have been “guarding the border” by burning Mexican flags in Tucson. I’m not sure exactly how this is supposed to work, but imagine the lives that could [...]
