Year: 2005

I’m a huge fan of Walter Williams and not just because he was nice enough to do an interview with me. Williams is a brilliant and incisive writer, quick on his feet, and he excels at explaining complicated subjects in an easy to understand way. You’ll see what I’m talking about as you read these […]

“According to every poll taking the pulse of Hispanics in the past decade, this population takes seriously the issue of illegal immigration. That includes Mexican Americans, the one subgroup that you might think — because of their ancestors’ experience — would be most sympathetic to immigrants, even illegal ones. One of the latest polls appeared […]

Last week when purchasing a burger at Burger King for $1.58. The counter girl took my $2 and I was digging for my change when I pulled 8 cents from my pocket and gave it to her. She stood there, holding the nickel and 3 pennies, while looking at the screen on her register. I […]

Except for few desperate individuals driven to violence by U.S. imperialism, Islam is a Religion of Peace. Christianity, on the other hand, has been the engine of world suffering for over 2000 years. It was Christianity that nearly eradicated the indigenous peoples of this continent, the survivors condemned to the perpetual humiliation of cartoon stereotypes […]

Conservatives love Condi Rice. In fact, they love her so much that’s she’s annihilating everyone in Patrick Ruffini’s blogosphere straw poll. Heck, she’s such a popular choice that she’s actually beating the next 4 candidates COMBINED! That’s unfortunate because at this point, Condi Rice appears to be a weak candidate who I think would have […]

Cindy Sheehan, the woman who so embodies what the anti-war movement stands for that she has been called the “Rosa Parks” of the movement, says she’s headed back to Crawford. When she gets there, maybe some of the members of the media who have been fawning over her will ask her why she supports terrorism. […]

One of the most controversial items from a western standpoint is the role Islam will play in the laws of Iraq. The common cry [paraphrased] is “did we sacrifice our soldiers to establish an Islamist state?” Security Watchtower excerpts the text of the draft submitted to assembly (the full text can be viewed at Newsday.com).

“By rights, Democrats should be the most anti-illegal-immigration of the two parties. The benefits of illegal immigration go disproportionately to employers and people rich enough to hire nannies, pool cleaners, etc. They get to hire low-paid workers with very few rights. The costs fall on minorities and low-skill workers, whose wages are undercut.” — Rich […]

One of my all-time favorite posts in the blogosphere was called “Denigrating the Overblog” by the Flying Space Monkey Chronicles. Now this was a brilliant concept: Who’s getting entirely too much traffic and doesn’t deserve it? Got any nominations? Rules are the same as the one for underblogs except backwards…or…something like that. Put the names/URLs […]

Yesterday was a historic day in Iraq as the draft of their Constitution was completed. Here are some of the details: “People who have viewed the document said it includes vague language weakening Iraq’s strong central government, enshrining a federalist system in which regions could split off, and addressing how oil revenue is to be […]

Pat Robertson has been ripped up one side and down the other for calling for the assassination of anti-American Commie, Hugo Chavez: “You know, I don’t know about this doctrine of assassination, but if he thinks we’re trying to assassinate him, I think that we really ought to go ahead and do it. It’s a […]

As a fan of limited government and an amateur student of the growth of English liberties (I once wrote a long essay on the roots of the right against self-incrimination in Stuart England), I have long accepted – at the level of an article of faith – that the jury is an important bedrock of […]

“Iraq is a central front in the war on terror. It is a vital part of our mission. Terrorists like bin Laden and his ally, Zarqawi, are trying to turn Iraq into what Afghanistan was under the Taliban, a place where women are beaten, religious and ethnic minorities are executed, and terrorists have sanctuary to […]

In my opinion, there are three men who are largely responsible for the resurgence of conservatism over the last 25 years: Ronald Reagan, Rush Limbaugh, and Newt Gingrich. Well, on Friday of last week, I was fortunate to have a chance to do a phone interview with one of those men, Newt Gingrich. Of course, […]

Maybe it’s just me, but I figure one of the great things about living in a modern, civilized country is that there aren’t a lot of animals roaming around that are capable of making a meal out of you. But apparently, there are people out there who see that as a bug, not a feature: […]

Before you ask, yes it’s real. Let me anticipate your next question: I have no idea why this was sent to me. But since I got it, enjoy the freaky email that gets progressively crazier as it goes on… From: SILENT INVASION Subject: $$$$$$=== GOD “Do not spill the oil or the wine ( alcohol)”in […]

“If you allow those who are the most vocal and most antagonistic to get a meeting with the president for fear that publicity will hurt you if you don’t, you’re creating incentives for your critics to become even more antagonistic and more vocal. Then, you’re forever stuck in: Will you or won’t you meet? You’ll […]

Here are a few links to peruse over the week-end. RWN will return on Monday with a huge interview with one of the biggest names in conservatism. Who? Let’s just say the man had a banner year in 1994 & knows a thing or two about how to put together a contract. See you on […]

Prepare yourself, because I’m about to prove what a hard hearted conservative I am by agreeing with a business that most people seem to think is picking on a 7 year-old kid with cerebral palsy and autism — but somebody’s got to do it, right?. Well, actually nobody has to do it, I just wanted […]

“Cindy Sheehan, the grieving mother who maintained an anti-War protest outside of President Bush’s ranch, is viewed favorably by 35% of Americans and unfavorably by 38%. …In general, people see in Sheehan what they want to see. Opinion about her is largely based upon views of the War, rather than views about the woman herself. […]

“Two different news media consortiums reviewed Florida’s ballots (in 2000); both found that a full manual recount would have given the election to Mr. Gore.” — Paul Krugman on Aug 19, 2005 From Right Wing News back on July 1, 2002 in a column called The Two Year Old’s Tantrum That Never Ends: “- Bush […]

Liberals, who always seem anxious to relive the “glory days” of the Vietnam anti-war movement, have frequently exclaimed that Iraq is a quagmire. Believe it or not, they are correct. Iraq is a quagmire all right: for the terrorists. Of course, you’d never realize this if you just get your news from the mainstream media […]
