Year: 2003

When I see the incredibly negative & biased coverage of Iraq that we’re getting from the mainstream press, I almost have to wonder if something like this is about what’s happening behind the scenes… CNN Reporter: Hello, I’m CNN correspondent Wolf Streisand, live on the wild streets of Baghdad where lawlessness reigns, security is non-existant, […]

In a show of Republican solidarity, California gubernatorial candidate Tom McClintock today offered to let Arnold Schwarzenegger borrow his ideas and plan for reviving the debt-ridden state. “Arnold has celebrity, but no real Republican game plan,” said Mr. McClintock, a state senator. “I have actual experience, and a conservative plan for California, but little celebrity. […]

“Eye On The Left” — which used to be “Blogs of War” — did an interview with me for their grand opening today. Read it and enjoy!

I found Bush’s speech last night on the war in Iraq to be fairly interesting because he pointed out some things to the American public that conservative pundits have been talking about for months. In a sense, Bush’s speech last night was like the opening class of, “Conservative Foreign Policy 101”. Here’s some of the […]

There seem to be some people out there who think Bush is in trouble. Richard Reeves just wrote a column called “Why George Bush Can’t Win”. Glenn Reynolds writes… “QUITE SOME TIME AGO, I noted that Bush was in danger of losing his base. Now it looks to be happening. Libertarians are already iffy; now […]

A new school voucher program which passed a Senate committee today, would free up seats in Washington D.C. public schools for the children of members of Congress, and other government officials. The $7,500 vouchers would go to D.C. families with children who are failing in the public schools, helping them to pay private school tuition. […]

I ran across some interesting numbers on immigrants in a piece about Victor Davis Hanson… “While Mexican immigrants come to America no more or less poor, no more or less uneducated than previous waves of immigrants, they are far more resistant to assimilating into American culture. Hanson notes that, of the millions of Mexican immigrants […]

A lot of Conservatives, myself included, have been unhappy with Bush’s “democrat-lite” domestic policies. Bush has abandoned all fiscal restraint, created a gargantuan new homeland security department, is adding a budget busting prescription drug benefit, has supported steel tariffs, doesn’t want to repeal the assault weapons ban, supported the unconstitutional campaign finance reform, wants illegal […]

BAGHDAD – U.S. Troops conducted a raid Wednesday that lead to the arrest of 13 wanted Iraqis. Authorities say 4 of the arrested may be doubles the ex-dictator used in several public appearances. Sources have revealed one of the doubles may be actor Jerry Mathers, television’s Beaver. U.S. officials have yet to confirm the rumor, […]

As I mentioned yesterday, Johnny recently trashed not the Bush administration, but America itself. He said… “America is dumb, it’s like a dumb puppy that has big teeth that can bite and hurt you, aggressive,” he said. “My daughter is four, my boy is one. I’d like them to see America as a toy, a […]

I want you to think back to the three worst terrorist attacks worldwide since 9/11… — There was the Bali bombing at a couple of packed nightclubs. — 100+ Iraqis died in a bombing at a mosque. — More than a 1000 Russians were put in a hostage situation at a theater. Notice that those […]

“Not to imply that we’re better than anyone else, or better friends than any other friends, or that we’re ‘super-liberal’, or in any way better than anybody else is, or any group of friends and/or significant others…” From their fortress high atop the Canadian Shield, the Liberal Superfriends keep an eye on Americans’ tendency to […]

This just kills me… “Immigrant-rights groups are suing seven Virginia colleges for allegedly following the state attorney general’s advice to deny admission to immigrants. The lawsuit, filed Wednesday in U.S. District Court, contends that the schools’ policies usurp the role of federal immigration authorities. It was filed on behalf of unidentified students who either attend […]

The United Nations will likely send a multinational force of troops to Iraq starting next month. The plan, dubbed Operation Haughty Weasel, will use U.N. troops to guard important facilities, and to win the hearts and minds of the Iraqi people. “It’s really a goodwill gesture,” said U.N. Secretary-General Kofi Annan. “We want to let […]

Super-genius & very pretty man Johnny Depp had to say about our country from France… “America is dumb, it’s like a dumb puppy that has big teeth that can bite and hurt you, aggressive,” he said. “My daughter is four, my boy is one. I’d like them to see America as a toy, a broken […]

Since the governorship of California may be at stake, predictably, there are already people on the left trying to defend MEChA. While it’s terribly sad, it’s hardly surprising. Winston Churchill once said, “If Hitler invaded hell I would make at least a favourable reference to the devil in the House of Commons” and most of […]

I’m going to be taking a Labor Day vacation which means that the next update of RWN will be on Wednesday. As per usual when I go out of town, I’ve put up a few websites I like in the daily news section. If I’m not going to be here, maybe I can at least […]

— Does the New York Times give you the news straight and from an unbiased perspective or are they really just claiming to do that while they actually push a liberal agenda? Yeah, you know the answer and so do I. But if there are any doubters out there, then just take a gander at […]

This statue of Lenin sits in front of Goff’s, a “hamburger joint” in Dallas…. I can’t tell you how much I love this. Once Lenin was king commie, but now? Lenin is dead, his evil empire has been lost, & now his statue sits in front of a mere restaurant in the land of the […]

California Lt. Gov. Cruz Bustamante today said he is considering renouncing ties to a so-called racist organization which persists in judging a person by the color of his skin rather than the content of his character. “I don’t know if can stay with a group that promotes racial division,” said Mr. Bustamante. “Their ideas have […]

Left-wingers are highly sensitive to charges that they’re not patriotic. Heck, you could hardly make it through a week back during the war in Iraq without two or three angry lefties “courageously” going on TV or doing interviews with major magazines about how their dissent was being squashed and their patriotism questioned by the right. […]

DES MOINES, IA – In a moment of “sweet, poetic irony,” Steve Haskins, former acquaintance of AT&T pitchman Carrot-Top, refused to accept a collect call from the comedian earlier today. Haskins, who befriended the grating, painfully unfunny man while attending Florida Atlantic University, received the call while preparing for a weekend getaway with his girlfriend. […]

After talking about some of Arnold Schwarzenegger’s positions today, Neal Boortz said this about members of the GOP who won’t support Arnold because he’s pro-abortion… “You know these Republican die-hards though. (Arnold’s pro-abortion stand) is enough to send many Republicans screaming into the electoral wilderness. If there is anything some Republicans just can’t stand it’s […]

I went through my statistics and picked out the websites that have sent me the most “visits” so far this year. I thought it would be nice to send a little traffic back to the websites that have sent it to me so far this year, wanted RWN’s readers to check out some excellent web […]

If you liked this satire by Shamus Young, you can see more of his work at The Lemon.

Out of all the titans in American history — Presidents and generals, inventors and entrepreneurs, reformers and revolutionaries — have you ever wondered who the left thinks the best of the best were? Well, we here at RWN wondered about that too and that’s why we decided to email more than a 130 left-of-center bloggers […]

In Dr. Chuck Tryon’s English 1101 course at Georgia Tech, the students are doing something a little bit out of the ordinary to build their skills. They’re studying bloggers! Including these “famous bloggers”… “Once you’ve looked around for a while, you can find bloggers whose values either align with or contrast with your own beliefs. […]

The Cable News Network (CNN) said today that it would begin announcing daily casualty tallies related to America’s various tax-funded government-run operations. The idea came from the daily count many news organizations keep of American Casualties in Iraq. The following data will be included in CNN’s new ‘Casualties of the Great Society’: — murders and […]

Sawad, alias Sardjiyo, a terrorist who helped make the bomb that killed 202 people in Bali yesterday decided to thank the people who supported his cause. Why who could that be? Osama Bin Laden? Radical Islamists all over the world? Why no! He wanted to thank the anti-war protestors…. “I want to thank the Australian […]
