Obama reluctant to “spend” tax cuts. Your income is his first. Originally published by Mike gamecock DeVine as Legal Editor for The Minority Report Heee’s Baaack! Who? The Marxist writ large of spread the wealth; hike cap gains rates no matter that rate cuts increases revenues; bankrupt the coal industry and teach Americans a lesson via higher gasoline taxes.

Rush echoes Gamecock on “magic” wasted opportunity by GOP
By: Mike gamecock DeVine (Diary) | January 6th at 12:58 PM |
As I declared and predicted, almost alone in the conservative blogosphere, two weekends ago at TMR, Redstate, Race 4 2012, and Blog Talk Radio on TMR’s Aftermath and last weekend on Unusable Signals, most Republicans missed another opportunity to refute the 40+ year old liberal meme that we are racists and to exhibit the singular race obsession of the left and that Rush Limbaugh (pictured) | Read More »

Shouldn’t Pakistan be cut some slack by Washington and Mumbai?
By: Mike gamecock DeVine (Diary) | January 4th at 12:08 PM |
Originally published by Mike DeVine, Legal Editor for The Minority Report I’m asking. But it seems to me that freely elected Pakistani President Asif Ali Zardari (pictured) and the unelected former leader, Pervez Musharraf, should be applauded. Consider their about face after 911 and that, no matter public reports of their efforts against terrorists, we haven’t been attacked again. But my main proffers of evidence | Read More »

By: Mike gamecock DeVine (Diary) | January 3rd at 11:08 PM |
Originally published by Mike DeVine, Legal Editor for The Minority Report The Palestinian people are a death cult.

By: Mike gamecock DeVine (Diary) | December 31st at 08:55 AM |

Blackwell echos Gamecock, defends Saltsman and Rush parody
By: Mike gamecock DeVine (Diary) | December 30th at 01:05 AM |
I supported Michael Steele, Ken Blackwell and Katon Dawson for RNC chair, in that order, before current chairman Mike Duncan “blew the whistle” on a non-story about Chip Saltsman, which whistle. I think no less of Steele or Dawson now, but I think much more of Blackwell (pictured), and I already thought much of him. He is much more advanced into the content of character, | Read More »

By: Mike gamecock DeVine (Diary) | December 29th at 02:50 PM |
Originally published by Mike gamecock DeVine as Legal Editor for The Minority Report Bank bailout bungling, commingling…but did it “work”? The Carolina Panthers win ugly, but as 12-4 NFC South champions with a first round play-off bye, the key word in the opening phrase is “win.” In his Inaugural address in late September, newly elected as the first President of the U.S. Economy, Treasury Secretary | Read More »

By: Mike gamecock DeVine (Diary) | December 28th at 12:51 PM |
Originally published by Mike DeVine, Legal Editor for The HinzSight Report at TMR. Looking at my pile of printed out internet and newspaper article equivalent to Rush Limbaugh’s stack of stuff, marked up as fodder for my own dead-tree columns, blogs and book instead of a radio show, I am reminded of the movie, “Paper Chase”.

People in jail want out
By: Mike gamecock DeVine (Diary) | December 20th at 12:43 PM |
I (pictured) learned that phrase from my Alabama ex-wife, who would recite it whenever I would wistfully express a desire for something that simply was not going to happen, either in my professional legal career or my personal life.
