Clearing the Browser Tabs – Conservative Vision Wednesday Edition Posted: 20 Apr 2011 03:10 AM PDT Lee Stranahan asked a question about the Republican Party, “vision”, and guerilla journalist James O’Keeffe the other day that I think deserves an answer from people within the GOP. Whether you like or hate O’Keeffe (and I freely admit I’m closer to the latter than the former), it’s nearly impossible to deny that he’s had a greater effect on the left’s fundamental power structure than anyone inside the Republican Party for a very long time. ACORN, once a pillar of the progressive machine, is simply gone. Its members are disgraced, many leaders around the country are under active criminal investigation, and the name itself has become radioactive, all because James O’Keeffe jumped on what sounded like a crazy idea and played it for all he was worth. Stranahan’s question is important. The rules of the game have changed because media has changed. If conservatives really want to crush the progressive movement once and for all — and they certainly should want that — then they’re going to have to open their eyes to the possibilities. If not, well, welcome to the permanent minority. And now, links! Why would any government agency anywhere pay $600,000 for a gurgling toad statue? Fred Thompson says we can safely ignore all the early media chatter about which candidates are viable and which are not. It’s a fixed game, as he learned just about three years ago. Speaking of candidates getting the “he’s not viable” treatment, here’s a little Herman Cain action, from the Chicago Tea Party. Presidential Petulance: Remember when the President of the United States saved his really tough talk for our enemies? Perhaps that why Barack Obama’s approval numbers are falling fast, despite the greatest efforts from the spinmeisters to stop them. What is it with Democrats and the Second Amendment? It’s like they’re afraid of an armed populace or something. Hmm..children taken out of their classrooms, paraded out into public, and taught to chant statist slogans. Now where have I seen that before…? If you had to choose a blogger or a celebrity to endorse your product, which would you choose? Take a look at this article, if you guessed “celebrity”. Happy Millionth Hit to Little Miss Attila! I honestly don’t know if I’ve gotten mine yet. I’m sure I have at some point, but I changed over Sitemeter when I went to the new format and I lost track of the old number. Ah, well.

Deliver for The Delivery — The First Podcast Fundraiser Posted: 19 Apr 2011 12:30 PM PDT If you listen to even one episode of The Delivery, you know it is unique. No other podcast mixes politics and pop culture with humor and geek jokes and…why am I describing it? You don’t need a sales pitch. You know how good it is. There is a sales pitch, though. So far, I’ve done The Delivery in my spare time and on a shoestring budget. I have a vision for the show that doesn’t necessarily involve a lot of changes and improvements but certainly involves more — more listeners, more guests, more great stuff for you. That means money. I need to know if we can sustain The Delivery in a way that won’t involve stuffing it full of commercials and on-air sponsorships. I believe it can, so I’ve launched this experiment — a beginning, if you like — to see what I can raise for the show. If you have the money to give, please click on the donation button at the bottom of the post and add your own delivery. If you’re not comfortable with PayPal, send a DM to my Twitter account or send an e-mail to thesundriesshack [at] gmail [dot] com and I’ll get you what you need to send through the mail. I’m going to run this for a limited time — until May 12th — so don’t wait until the last minute! I am cooking up a few little audio goodies to send to everyone who contributes. I won’t tell you exactly what they are, but I think you’ll want them. They’ll be exclusive to donors, so if you’re the type who likes special edition collectible things, well, you’re in luck! So here it is. Please deliver generously for The Delivery!
