No column today, sorry. Spent the whole day dealing with various automotive problems. Fair warning: I might need another day next week to finish up several repairs and registration hassles (Oh, joy! The D.M.V.!).
Tomorrow's column, however, should be a substantial one on the subject of the Middle East, whose situation I've been [...]
Important Question For All ChrisWeigant.com Readers:
Does anyone actually use the "Comments RSS" feed here? There may be a problem with it, and rather than dig into fixing it, it would be a lot easier for me to just turn this feature off.
But I will not do so if people are actively using [...]
The milestone I'm about to hit is sending out my one-thousandth tweet. Or, to be more Twitterlike, my 1000th tweet (or maybe even just "1K tweets!"). That seems like a lot of tweets to me, but then I wouldn't be surprised if that's a normal monthly count for some Twitter users. I'm hovering right around 450 followers, and this column is specifically written to each and every one of them.
There will be no column today, sorry. I have been laid low by the flu, and can barely stay awake for a half an hour at a time. I really did plan on writing something today, but this has proven impossible. Hopefully I will be recovered enough by Monday to resume regular [...]
Just a quick note for everyone with the hope that Santa brought what you wanted this year. There will be no column today, as we're getting the final "McLaughlin Awards" together.
Which means, of course, that tonight is pretty much your last chance for any nominations, which you can list as a comment here or [...]
Today is really just going to be an extended program note, just to warn everyone, which ends with a crass fundraising plea.
I've been busy reviewing 2014 in preparation for tomorrow's (and next Friday's) year-end awards columns, so you've got that to look forward to.
Today's going to be somewhat of an "open thread," as the blogfolk say.
While our regular Friday Talking Points column will appear here tomorrow as usual, for the next two weeks afterwards it will be pre-empted by our annual awards columns. These take a look back at the previous year and take note of what happened in an amusing fashion. Check out last year's columns (Part 1 and Part 2) to see what I'm talking about.
It's that time of year again, folks!
Yes, it is time once again for our annual holiday pledge drive, which we traditionally begin by intentionally distracting you with the cutest kittens known to exist -- in a cheap effort to tug at your heartstrings as you reach for your wallet. While this yearly begging season [...]
I'm holding off (for now) on writing today, so I can instead post a snap reaction after the final part of this Kabuki theater we're witnessing. Yes, I said Kabuki. My bet, at the current moment, is what I've believed all along: Boehner will pass a "clean" continuing resolution at the very last [...]
Since I worked yesterday, on what was supposed to ostensibly be a holiday, I am taking today off. I will be answering comments from recent articles later, but won't be writing a new column today. Apologies for the interruption in our scheduling, normal columns will resume tomorrow. Either tomorrow or Thursday, we'll [...]
