Year: 2004

— “Alberto Gonzales looks to be W’s choice to replace John Ashcroft and personally, I think it’s a great pick. Gonzales is a Bush loyalist with a reputation for being tough on terror and plenty of legal experience that shows he’s up to the job. Some people aren’t all that high on him because they […]

Michele Catalano over at A Small Victory is one those “security moms” we’ve heard so much about. While Michele isn’t comfortable with everything in the conservative agenda, particularly the social issues, she is concerned about national security and she’s repulsed by the bile spewing Michael Moore element of the Democratic Party. I think that’s a […]

“Time to spend that political capital, people,” Bush told his staff, “That’s why I called all of you who ain’t resigned yet together. First off, I’d like to thank Rover for this great victory.” Karl Rove emerged from the shadows. “My evil power grows. Muh ha ha ha!” “That’s super,” Bush remarked, and looked back […]

Joe Scarborough’s “Rome Wasn’t Burnt In A Day” is a fantastic book for political junkies. Joe Scarborough, who most people know through his show on MSNBC, “Scarborough Country,” originally made a name for himself as a freshmen congressman back in 1994. Because of a huge backlash against Bill Clinton and Newt Gingrich’s Contract with America, […]

Cassandra from I Love Jet Noise punched up a superb response to a Michael Kinsley’s whinging about the values issue (Free LA Times Subscription Required To Read). Although the main thrust of the piece was supposed to be about values, Cassandra did a masterful job of explaining how libs & conservatives differ on personal responsibility, […]

This last election was a sweet, sweet, victory for the Party. We get four more years of Bush, we have 55 Senators now, a lock on the House at least until 2010, and a majority of governorships. And let’s face it, things are trending our way and have been at least since Ronald Reagan came […]

(Note: For the purposes of the post, I am setting ideology aside and giving my best, most honest, advice to the Democrats about what they need to do to revive their political fortunes. If any of the conservatives reading RWN are worried about that — don’t — they’ll never listen to a conservative). This is […]

The idea of having Arlen Specter as chairman of the judiciary committee just chafes me and you want to know why? Because here we have a RINO who was pushed hard by a real conservative, Pat Toomey, in the primaries this year. But there was nothing for Senator Jeffords…oh sorry, sorry, Senator Specter to worry […]

— Hey, it sounds like that old monster Arafat is going to get about the most appropriate resting place for his corpse outside of a pig pen…. “Unkempt, ankle deep in rubbish and the air thick with flies from the stinking market next door, the Arafat family plot could not be a more inauspicious burial […]

It’s funny because it’s true! Hat tip to Knowledge Is Power for the graphic.

As expected in the wake of their loss at the polls, the looniey lefties over at the Democratic Underground Forums are even more out of their minds than usual. The general theme seems to be that the election was rigged using electronic voting machines. Here are just some of the threads — less than half […]

Since George W. Bush was reelected there has been a lot of very angry talk from the left about “Red State Americans”. Since then, those of us in the red states have been called “greedy,” “sister marryin’,” “slow learners” & “fascists” who live in “Jesusland”. Well, I’m a “Redstate Republican” from the South and I […]

Mark Dubbin, the author of “Shadow Patriot” bought another main page ad on RWN to get the word out about his book. Here’s the description of it from Barnes & Noble… “The events of 9/11 affected many things in New York and the Mafia was no exception. Business suffered for Don Remondini after the attack, […]

Take it from a guy who was suggesting that we use gay marriage as a campaign issue to hammer the Democrats way back in July of 2003, this was not an election that centered on cultural issues. That’s not to say “culture war issues” are unimportant. People will turn out to vote against gay marriage, […]

— So Arafat’s about to kick the bucket? Suits me just fine. I only regret that terrorist vermin is going to die in a bed instead of violently like so many of his victims. I know some people worry about what will happen after Arafat dies, but face it, Arafat is just about the worst […]

Now why didn’t I come up with an idea for a t-shirt as cool as the one Frank J. at IMAO created? That shirt is just toooooooo sweeeeeeet! PS: I slapped Frank J.’s logo on an image of a larger shirt I found on Google so it would be easier to see.

Here are a few quotes from lefties at home and abroad reacting to Bush’s win. I think you’ll find it to be enlightening…or at least amusing =D — “I cannot possibly put into words how disappointed, angry, and perplexed I am right now. The reported results coming out of Florida and Ohio simply make no […]

I know it’s early, but there are already a lot of people who already looking forward to 2008. Here’s a quick run down on the bigger names getting tossed around (the field will be bigger than this) — Bill Frist: Senators don’t make particularly good candidates because they have to compromise so much to get […]

Hey, they’ve lifted the ban at the DU that kept people who were weren’t registered members from reading the forums and I was right back in there. Know why? Because the left is never loonier than after a huge defeat and I just couldn’t wait to see what they had to say. Here are just […]

Hey guys, look what’s for sale on eBay: it’s Michael Moore’s Relevance! Currently it’s at a low, low, price of $151.50 (+ $5 shipping) so get it while it’s hot! Here are the details… “After the Kerry/Edwards election failure tuesday, Michael Moore’s relevance is one of the rarest items available on E-Bay today. This auction […]

Sen. John Forbes Kerry, who was also a presidential candidate until recently, today finally explained “the plan” to which he often referred during his White House bid. “You probably thought my plan involved sitting in the Oval Office,” said Mr. Kerry, “But everything I have done this year was simply to lay the groundwork for […]

There’s a lot of carping from the mainstream media about bloggers posting the exit polls, but I’m not sorry I did it. Heck, I posted exit polls in 2002, I posted them last night, and if I can get my hands on them, I’ll be posting them in 2006. There are two reasons for that. […]

My pre-election 2004 Senate, battleground state, & popular vote predictions along with how things actually played out… The Competitive Senate Races State: South Dakota My Analysis: Edge to Thune (75/25) Winner: Thune (R) 50% Vs. Daschle (D) 49% State: Florida My Analysis: Toss Up (50/50) Winner: Martinez (R) 49% Vs. Castor (D) 48% State: Colorado […]

Had this third party candidate had the money to run more commercials, he might have siphoned enough votes away from George Bush and his GI Joe allies to throw the race to Kerry. And an interesting question: Had GI Joe launched a missile at this guy’s campaign HQ, would it have been a violation of […]

— Of course, Bush and the GOP were the obvious winners last night and Kerry and the Democrats were the obvious losers. Here are a few other winners and losers who come quickly to mind… Winners — Iraq and all of our allies in the Coalition. Electing Mr. “Wrong war, wrong place, wrong time” could […]

If you have any quotes from lefty blogs, commentators, websites, etc about the Bush win that are particularly kookie or vicious, post them in the comments section. I’m planning on posting some of the better ones tomorrow…

“Given the Democrats’ defeatist attitude towards Iraq and a number of other ventures, you would think they would be more accepting of a loss tonight.” –jason_the_halfling

Kerry has conceded!

I tend to doubt it because the margins are too big. It’s one thing to try to go to court in a state like Florida when there’s a 1000 vote spread and you’ve won the popular vote, but I don’t see Kerry trying to steal a win in a situation like this. For one thing, […]

Thread on the Democratic Underground right now =D — We’re rmoving to Canada — Resistance or secession? — Poll: Where will you move to if Bush wins? — If * prevails, I hope the draft is announced by the end of the year… — Get ready for the return of the Dark Age. — Doom! […]
