Year: 2004

Sadly, we’ve finally passed a 1000 deaths in Iraq. That’s certainly tragic, especially for the families and friends of the soldiers who were killed. There is no such thing as “light casualties” to someone who loses a father, a brother, or child in a battle in a foreign land. That being said, if we send […]

On Friday of last week, I sat down with John O’Neill from the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth for a 25 minute phone interview. We discussed John Kerry’s first and third Purple Hearts, his Bronze Star, his Senate testimony, Cambodia, Chris Matthews, and several other topics of note. Read and enjoy. (Cont)

About. To. Keel. Over. Because. I. Am. So. Tired. Will. Return. From. Vacation. Wed. BIG. INTERVIEW. I. Repeat. BIG. INTERVIEW. Coming. Wednesday. Have a nice Labor Day week-end folks! *** Update #1***: Here’s a list of my advertisers. They’re supporting RWN, so it would be much appreciated if you could support them by taking a […]

My favorite speech excerpts from the Republican National Convention, in order…. Honorable Mentions “And I have met with parents and wives and husbands who have received a folded flag, and said a final goodbye to a soldier they loved. I am awed that so many have used those meetings to say that I am in […]

Everyone who participated in this, who helped make it happen, who cheers it on as some sort of noble act, deserves to die… “The three-day hostage siege at a school in southern Russia ended in chaos and bloodshed Friday, after witnesses said Chechen militants set off bombs and Russian commandos stormed the building. Hostages fled […]

There was less coverage of the liberal wackos protesting the convention than I had expected this week, in part because the NYC police did a fantastic job of keeping them under control, but also because the mainstream media has undoubtedly figured out by now that putting these nutjob lefties on TV only helps the GOP. […]

The entire primetime hour tonight was taken up with George W. Bush’s speech and it was not wasted time. While W. isn’t a master orator like Reagan, or Clinton who can deliver a superb speech even though he’s reeling off a laundry list of programs, he helped himself tonight. Bush’s speech was issue laden, he […]

Tsk, tsk, tsk. Either someone is doing a very bad job of advising John Kerry or he’s buying into that old saw that both parties’ faithful always repeat “We’re just lying there and taking it! We’re not fighting back” and he’s insisting on saying this in his speech tonight… “We all saw the anger and […]

The Kerry-Edwards presidential campaign today announced it will spend $50 million in the next few days on advertising to prove John Forbes Kerry and John Edwards understand the concerns of middle Americans. “We’re regular folks, just like all you ordinary people, and we’re going to burn through $50 million in about week just to prove […]

Zell Miller went on Hardball last night and when Chris Matthews tried to pull his standard operating procedure, Miller stomped a mudhole in his behind and walked it dry while pointing out the incredibly rude & unprofessional way Matthews treated

On Tuesday, the convention featuring a rousing speech by Arnold, followed by a more sedate speech by Laura Bush aimed at women’s voters. Well last night, we had a blistering, no-holds-barred speech by Zell Miller, again followed by Dick Cheney, who touted the domestic agenda, talked up Bush and the importance of the war on […]

On the day that prosecutors dropped charges against basketball star Kobe Bryant, the three major cable news networks announced they would cut back to 12-hours of daily programming. “Without the Kobe show, we just can’t fill 24 hours a day,” said one unnamed programming executive. “I mean you can only run so many Michael Jackson […]

This was RWN’s best month ever for daily uniques, and the best month this year for page views. Right Wing News finished August with 335,225 total pageviews & 202,452 daily unique visitors. Thanks to all the web pages that linked RWN and of course, all the readers for making that possible. I’m going to have […]

I’m not the biggest ah-nold fan in the world, but I have to give him credit for the great speech he gave last night. He was funny, did a good job of talking up W., and it’s always fantastic to hear someone who audaciously points out the obvious: that the United States is a beacon […]

Hat tip to Entropy from Arguing With Myself for pointing this pic out to me and to Flash Bunny for making it. PS: For accidentally self-inflicted wounds that were used to fraudulently acquire medals, see Kerry’s 1st & 3rd Purple Hearts. Here’s some info on those citations, “Former Navy Secretary John Lehman has no idea […]

If you enjoyed the interview I did with Walter Williams and the first year’s worth of quotes that I culled from his columns, then you’ll enjoy this latest set of Walter Williams quotes that I’ve put together. All that wisdom, distilled down into a single page of quotes. Enjoy! (Cont)

The Republicans put on an excellent show tonight, well at least for the last hour and fifteen minutes or so. McCain gave a very solid, sober, yet rousing speech about George Bush, Iraq, and the war on terrorism and the 9/11 tribute followed by Amazing Grace that came after was quite moving. But the clean-up […]

One very strong charge that the Swift Boat Vets for Truth have made that the mainstream media has for the most part refused to follow-up on, is how John Kerry got his first Purple Heart. This is no small matter, not only because the SBVFT are accusing Kerry of fraudulently attaining his Purple Heart, but […]

I had to cut out of work early today and I spent a good portion of the day in bed because I didn’t feel well. Of course, that threw my schedule off, and so the updates will be fewer in number than normal. Furthermore, the lead off article for today, a year of Walter Williams […]

Yes, there is nothing like taking the Harry Potter novels, stories about friendship, loyalty, individuality, and risking it all to do the right thing, and making them about sex-education, “love and sexuality”. So who wants to do that? Why the pro-abortion fanatics at Planned Parenthood! To their credit, they do at least say that they […]

Right Wing News has more than 3700 registered members and it’s not the least bit unusual for posts here to crack 100+ comments. So, I’ve had more than a little bit of experience running a comments section for my readers. With that in mind, here are some tips I have for bloggers running their own […]

Iraqis this week got a lesson in freedom as they watched accused murder Muqtada al-Sadr walk free after spending several weeks directing his followers to shoot at U.S. and Iraqi government forces from inside of the most holy Imam Ali Shrine. The lesson in freedom is part of a multi-year curriculum called “How to Start […]

In my opinion, the most fascinating thing to come to light during the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth Vs. John Kerry brouhaha that has played out this month has been the sheer number of times that John Kerry’s own biography, “Tour of Duty,” has directly contradicted his version of events. Let me show you what […]

What kind of execrable piece of trash would buy a Halloween costume like this for their kid? And before you start to wonder, no, this isn’t satire…. This is great isn’t it? You can dress your sons and daughters up like pimps and hos and then send them out on the streets for tricks and […]

What sort of sickos would design a toy like this? “…Until Thursday afternoon, the little toys were on sale to kids around Central Florida — two towers with a jetliner in between that appears to be crashing into one of the buildings. They come in packages along with candy. …there is no mistake what the […]

This should be John Kerry’s time to shine. He has surprisingly almost achieved parity with George Bush in hard money raised and the 527 groups supporting Kerry have outspent the Bush supporting groups 15 to 1. On top of that, Kerry has already had his “VP bounce” & his “Post convention bounce” — such as […]

President George Bush today announced a major strategy shift in his re-election campaign brought on by what he described as “the failure of my nominal opponent to present a single reason voters should support him.” The Bush-Cheney campaign will now simply ignore John Forbes Kerry, the Democrat candidate and Vietnam veteran who is also a […]
