Year: 2005

Sen. Dick Durbin, who recently compared U.S. personnel at the Guantánamo Bay terrorist-detention facility to Nazis, took the Senate floor today to slam U.S. troops in Iraq for their “progressive poisoning” of the imprisoned Saddam Hussein with snack foods. The Illinois Democrat’s criticism follows published reports that the former Iraqi president sometimes eats an entire […]

Here’s my entry in the Who Is Screwing Up America survey with short but sweet explanations for whom I selected: The six non-conservative Supremes have probably done as much damage as the rest of the list put together: Stephen Breyer Ruth Bader Ginsburg John Paul Stevens Sandra Day O’Connor Anthony Kennedy David Souter The two […]

Right Wing News emailed more than 200 right-of-center bloggers and asked them to send us a list of whom they believed was “screwing up America.” Representatives from the following 47 blogs responded… Absinthe & Cookies, The Anchoress, Annika’s Journal, AtlanticBlog, Babalu Blog, Baldilocks, Being American in T.O., Betsy’s Page, Blogs For Bush, Boi From Troy, […]

Former President Bill Clinton today said that if the scandal-plagued terrorist detention facility at Guantánamo Bay isn’t “cleaned up or closed down” then insurgents in Iraq may resort to killing Iraqis, and could even begin attacking U.S. troops. “If the United States gets a reputation in the Muslim world of mistreating terrorist prisoners,” said Mr. […]

I blame Thomas Friedman for this transparent idiocy: Why all the fuss over a seemingly technical point of law? This debate is driven by outcomes. In each of the recent cases in which invoking foreign law has sparked controversy, the decisions have been progressive or liberal. But a lot of international law is not so […]

Now any conservative can tell you that Robert Byrd, the man the left likes to call the “conscience of the Senate,” is a former klansman. That’s old — but entertaining news — that’s always fun to toss in the left’s face. I mean, here is this old bigot, this old klansman — and all these […]

“Last Tuesday, Senator Durbin, Democrat of Illinois, quoted a report of U.S. “atrocities” at Guantanamo and then added: “If I read this to you and did not tell you that it was an FBI agent describing what Americans had done to prisoners in their control, you would most certainly believe this must have been done […]

Now this is a Che Guevara shirt that someone who isn’t a smelly hippy, an empty headed Paris Hilton clone, or a Commie could actually wear with pride: I only wish I’d come up with it first. But unfortunately, the fine folks at Che-Mart came up with it first. Ah well…anyway, if you want to […]

I’d really appreciate it if you could check out just a few of my advertisers. Come on, it’s not as if I’m asking you for money, right? How long would it take to check out — let’s say 3 advertisers — not very long and it makes a big difference….and I’m not just saying that […]

The Democrats haven’t just gone “round the bend,” they’ve gone round the bend, down the street, and off to fairy land, where the moonbats dance and play in the dappled moonlight and everyone capers around in their pretty tinfoil hats. It starts with the Democratic equivalent of a little girl’s tea party with her imaginary […]

Asks Accuser’s Mom to Testify Against Him Former Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein startled the international legal community today by requesting that the jury in the Michael Jackson child molestation trial be empanelled to sit in judgment of him when his trial gets underway in Baghdad. The Iraqi dictator made the extraordinary request in a special […]

It’s no secret that the public’s confidence in the mainstream media has been steadily dropping over the past few years. Just to give you an idea of how bad it has gotten, according to a Gallup Poll in May, only 28% of the general public had either “A Great Deal” or “Quite A Lot” of […]

I love this story, I love this story, I love this story! “An armed robber brandishing a revolver and some tough talk entered Blalock’s Beauty College demanding money Tuesday afternoon. He left crying, bleeding and under arrest, after Dianne Mitchell, her students and employees attacked the suspect, beating him into submission. Mitchell tripped the robber […]

One the most fascinating things about TiVo is the way that it allows you to absolutely consume a TV series. Take a 30 minute show that runs 4 or 5 seasons for instance. TiVo records multiple versions of each show, each day and if you regularly watch the show, you can easily go through the […]

Many people in the mainstream media are drawing wild conclusions (Ex: Schiavo autopsy sides with her husband. No treatment could have helped her, doctors conclude) from Terri Schiavo’s autopsy that are not supported by the facts in evidence. To begin with, the fact that Terri Schiavo was confirmed to have brain damage & was blind […]

“I thought about it before I got over here, and feel even stronger about it now that it may be my reality. God forbid, if something happens to me over here, I do not want to be used by the likes of Phil Hansen in Seattle, Michael Moore, Gary Trudeau, or Ted Koppel, to make […]

Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney looks likely to throw his hat in the ring in 2008 and over at Betsy’s Page, Betsy is speculating that the media would try to undercut Romney by trying to make the public uncomfortable with the idea of a Mormon President. The idea of having a Mormon candidate in 2008 doesn’t […]

In order to help out our pals in the Democratic Party — like Dick Durbin — who can hardly sleep at night because they’re so concerned about how those poor terrorists are being treated at Gitmo, I’ve put together this handy dandy new motto for the Democratic Party:

Now, this is a cheery little graphic — well, if you’re a Republican. If you’re a Democrat, it’s pretty scary: A few quick thoughts inspired by this graph… #1) The Democratic decline in the Senate is not a fluke. It has been a long, slow, steady slide that started during the Vietnam years, was masked […]

“Let’s also pause to ponder the image of the middle-of-the-road, “centrist” jihadist who could be “recruited” to jihad by reports about abuse at Guantanamo. You know – the kind of guy who just watches al-Jazeera for the sports and hits the “mute” button whenever they start in about the Jews again, already. Liberals want us […]

Today on my other blog, Conservative Grapevine, you can find a link to a Mark Steyn interview, Terri Schiavo, Weight Watchers & Gitmo, Wonkette’s Hustler experience, & the Vietnam record of all the potential candidates for President in 2008 Make sure to check it out, Conservative Grapevine, bookmark it, and check it every day right […]

It’s bad enough that the Democratic Party has been nothing but a hindrance in the fight against terrorism, but their ridiculous hand wringing, over-the-top rhetoric, and seemingly endless concern for the well being of members of Al-Qaeda are actually starting to get more than a bit disturbing. Just look at this mind-blowing quote from Democratic […]

The sort of mentality displayed by the commenters at the Democratic Underground in the post directly below this one, was on display at Santa Monica College yesterday when they were lucky enough to have Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger come up and give the commencement address. Unfortunately, as is becoming all too common, a bunch of liberals […]

This thread at the Democratic Underground was just fascinating. It started with a liberal called “NoSheep” bragging about harassing some poor woman at the grocery store because she was a Republican and went from there. While not everyone agreed, the number of people at the DU who are so eaten up with hatred for Republicans […]

Ohio Senator Mike DeWine was one of the 7 Republicans who popped a middle-finger off to conservatives by signing on to John McCain’s sell-out deal with the Democrats on judges. Wonder if he would have done it had he known it would cost his son a chance to be a Congressman? From the LA Times: […]

“Senator Joe Biden said that while we should close Gitmo and release the occupants, we should also “keep those we have reason to keep.” Huh? This is the logical equivalent of Solomon saying, “Hey, let’s cut the baby in half after all.” Imagine if, instead of Gitmo, the issue was the death penalty. “The death […]

I’m putting together a list of embarrassing quotes made by members of the MSM over the last few years. I’m looking for quotes made that show bias, incompetence, and that justify the public’s deep distrust of the mainstream media. This includes quotes made by news anchors, reporters, media execs, editors, etc, etc, etc. Editorial columnists […]

“If leaders of the other party have innovative ideas, let’s hear them. But if they have no ideas or policies except obstruction, they should step aside and let others lead.” — George W. Bush It’s nice to see the big guy fire off a salvo at the Dems once in a while, especially when it’s […]

Usually, I don’t bother to write about Social Security because I think Bush should have given up on it long ago. Chances are, nothing is going to get passed and given the character of the Bush administration and the Republican Senate on domestic issues, even if something is done, it’ll probably be little more than […]
