reminds me of the funniest old-school NR alumnus:

(though there's also the eventual Nazi convert with a palindromic name...and the one who founded his own ultra-Catholic militia after a sojourn in Franco's Spain...)

that stuffing sounds DELICIOUS

well this is a strange detail:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arlington_House

it's a disambiguation page, but there's this:

Arlington House Publishers, a now-defunct American book publisher that published jazz discographies, as well as conservative, anti-communist titles.

is K-Lo doing the stuffing?

When you land or get back from picking up the celery, do check on NRO. We have Sarah Palin, John Boehner, and more coming up this afternoon yet …

KATHRYN JEAN LOPEZ
Times are tough and trips to Europe are expensive: This is not the moment for 1,000 Places to See Before You Die. But it is the moment for The Pilgrim’s Guide to Rome’s Principal’s Churches, an affordable coffee-table book that has just been reprinted by Angelus Press. It’s a pilgrim’s guide in the traditional sense — short of a human expert talking you though the churches of Rome, I can’t think of a better walk through what you’re looking at. It’s also great for anyone who wants to know Rome better but can’t get there, for financial, health, or other reasons. History and faith and beauty: It’s a trip and a treat.

Speaking of Rome, The End and the Beginning: Pope John Paul II — The Victory of Freedom, the Last Years, the Legacy, the second volume of George Weigel’s biography of John Paul II, is out. Parts of it read like a novel. Read about it here, and then get the book. It’s history, but it’s also inspiration, his chapter on the pope’s last encyclical — how he died — especially.

If you need a gift for someone who hasn’t read Mary Eberstadt’s Loser Letters, it’s a great choice; I promise they’ll thank you for it.

For folks who like easy-to-read fiction: Michael Walsh and Ralph Reed both have novels for you this year, and I’ve even got something for those who like nun stories. The tea-partier on your list might like Michael Walsh under another name, “David Kahane”; his Rules for Radical Conservatives: Beating the Left at Its Own Game to Take Back America just came out.

Apart from books, I always recommend holy, wholly reliable soap. You can also try coffee, mustard, and caramels. (Some related recommendations here.) And there’s always the option of donations to the National Review Institute, or DVDs of Firing Line.

also LOL @ the James Ellroy pick. only an NRO contributor could take this lunatic's political raving at face value. wonder what he thought of Ellroy's pervy memoir?

K-Lo passed this link along

LOL:

Washington Post columnist Kathleen Parker actually stormed off the set of the "Parker Spitzer" show during a pre-taping a few weeks ago -- furious that her co-host is continually allowed to take charge of their nightly CNN chat-fest, the insiders said.

Although still fuming, Parker did return to wrap up the segment, they said.

But she's angry that the show's producers are allegedly doing nothing to play up her strengths on the ailing show, the sources said.

Some staffers said Spitzer -- the hard-charging, former state attorney general who resigned as governor in 2008 after admitting to patronizing prostitutes -- thrust himself up front and center right out of the gate, leaving Parker without a chance.

But other insiders said the Pulitzer Prize-winning Parker has only herself to blame.

While Parker -- a conservative, nationally syndicated newspaper journalist -- is widely respected, she's no TV personality, critics said.

"Her weaknesses are felt internally," a source said.

ok this is a little off topic, but i was looking around for something and ended up on this new-ish site "alternative right" run by all around creep robert spencer. the whole point of it seems to be that modern conservatism isn't racist or anti-semitic enough. derbyshire publishes stuff there.

and there's this article, by one Alex Kurtagic:

http://www.alternativeright.com/main/blogs/hbd-human-biodiversity/africa-must-deindustrialize/

For these and other reasons, some of which you can find in the researches of Profs. Richard Lynn and J. Philippe Rushton, and others that you can find in Lothrop Stoddard's Revolt Against Civilization (1922) and Hesketh Prichard's Where Black Rules White (1900), Africa needs to be allowed to deindustrialise and to regress to pre-colonnial conditions. The nation states created there by the European powers must be allowed to disintegrate, and Africa as a whole must be allowed to re-organise along traditional, tribal lines. While North Africa will certainly remain more advanced, sub-Saharan Africa needs to be declared a natural and anthropological reserve.

charming, huh? honestly i'd leave all the weirdo racist shit alone, except this made me think of ilx:

Alex Kurtagic is a cultural commentator, novelist, musician, and artist. He is the author of the dystopian novel, Mister (published by Iron Sky Publishing, 2009) and the founder and director of Supernal Music.

and then:

Supernal Music is an extreme Metal record label and mailorder, founded in 1996, and based in the United Kingdom.

We are mainly known for our Black Metal releases, which include albums by bands like DRUDKH, HATE FOREST, CAPRICORNUS, THOR'S HAMMER, INFERNUM, KATAXU, SUNWHEEL, ELDRIG, ARKTHOS, THE MEADS OF ASPHODEL, and WOODS OF INFINITY.

metal fans, you may want to consider stealing this music if you want to hear it in the future, kthx

ugh

what i was looking for were some right-wing responses to pareene's Hack 30 (yes, this is how i entertain myself), and found this, by richard (sorry, not robert) spencer himself:

http://www.alternativeright.com/main/blogs/exit-strategies/the-hack-30/

The Hack 30
By Richard Spencer

An homage to "The Atlantic 50," which catalogues the Establishment's favorite "opinion-makers," Salon has released the "Hack 30," honoring the "worst columnists and cable news commentators America has to offer."

A more accurate title might be, "The Dumbest Jews on the Planet (and Maureen Dowd)."

wow

hahahahahahahahahaha

so cheered to discover that people are still citing lothrop stoddard

ha i skimmed over the 'scholarly' portion of that paragraph, just noticed the dates...

okay now i'm obsessed with this website; thanks, goole

http://www.alternativeright.com/main/blogs/untimely-observations/warrior-girls/

The American armed forces are becoming a sick joke.

No better is this expressed than in the Army’s selection of “Sergeant” Sherri Gallagher as its Soldier of the Year in this year’s Best Warrior Competition. The Army’s glowing coverage of this historic event can been seen here:

As Debbie Schlussel points out, Sherii-With-Two-Is is an Affirmative Action champion if there ever was one. She is 5’4,” petite, and looks like she’s 14 years old in her official photos. She would, no doubt, succumb quickly to an actual (male) warrior in a starring contest.

starring contest!

founded/funded by Taki Theodoracopulos

Taki has been criticised for using ethnic slurs by the newspaper The Guardian, in an article criticizing London mayor Boris Johnson for employing him[3] and he has been investigated by Scotland Yard for some of his racial comments.[4] Due to Taki's characterization of himself as a "soi-disant antisemite",[5] coupled with strong criticism of the Israeli government and its supporters in the United States, The Spectator no longer permits him to write about Israel or Jewish affairs. In March 2010 Taki, in an article in Chronicles magazine, said of the last Lehman Brothers CEO Richard Fuld that "he's a very homely, simian-looking Jew who couldn't punch his way out of a nursery".[6]

would it surprise you all to know that there is a big overlap between the nouvelle white-nationalist and PUA communities?

ok i don't know how big, but, not hard to find anyway

it's kind of nice when all the worst assholes in the world congregate and make themselves known

would it surprise you all to know that there is a big overlap between the nouvelle white-nationalist and PUA communities?

o rly?

eh i guess i'm thinking of one dude, that "roissy" guy who's kind of internet-famous as a PUA, tons of traffic, hundreds of commenters. read him for long enough and the idea becomes pretty clear: he views the ahem Game as a civilizational project where put-upon white men get to exact revenge on the feminized mongrel world. can't imagine what he's like in person.

anti-feminism and "men's rights" is a pretty strong link between hard-right shit and your basic womanizer internet guys, sometimes the link is explicit.

haha, i was agreeing with you---it seems like the most obvious connection to make. sorta assumed that venn diagram was one big circle

it's kind of nice when all the worst assholes in the world congregate and make themselves known

The NRO cruise, yo

gavin mcinnes has an article in taki's magazine (this is a ridiculous name for a magazine, btw) on dating in nyc that seems PUA-compliant, thought it's mostly about how pathetic it is when women over 30 claim they're okay with being single

i mean we can all agree that PUAs are, by definition, chauvinist a-holes? and that chauvinism begets chauvinism?

haha ok i misread you
