Here are my 20 selections for the Right-Of-Center Bloggers Select The Worst People In America post: Al Gore: For the election conspiracy theories he helped get started and for the global warming hysteria he has also encouraged. Al Sharpton: A race baiting poverty pimp. Bill Clinton: A former President who disgraced the office and who […]

Last night, Ann Coulter was on Hannity and Colmes and they discussed the Murtha “fragging” comment she made in the interview with RWN that went up last night. That interview is the gift that keeps on giving publicity to her and to RWN…

“I think An Inconvenient Truth is a convenient starting point for changing hearts and minds on the global warming issue. But in order to truly make a difference, I believe it needs some sort of marketing tie-in. People need to know this problem hits close to home. And they need to know it transcends mere […]

Earlier this afternoon, I was pleased to have the opportunity to get in on a teleconference about the Voting Rights Act with Republican Congressmen Steve King, Lynn Westmoreland, and Phil Gingrey. As you may have heard, the Voting Rights Act was scheduled to be voted on, but the vote was postponed. Here’s the short version […]

Keith Olbermann has a book coming out later this year entitled, The Worst Person In the World: And 119 More Strong Contenders. Sounds like a fun topic for a book, doesn’t it? In fact, it sounded like so much fun that I decided to modify it a bit and turn it into a poll topic […]

Rarely, do I post like just to tell you to check out a video, but this is great! It’s another Lazy Sunday parody, but this time, it’s straight out of Iraq. It’s called Lazy Ramadi. Enjoy! Hat tip to Blackfive for pointing this out. PS: There is one beeped profanity, but otherwise it’s pretty tame.

Are you ready for an exciting foray into the seamy underbelly of the blogosphere? Well then, strap on your seatbelt and let me tell you a little bit about the still unfolding Kos-ola scandal. To make a long story short, Markos Moulitsas Zúniga of the Daily Kos has had a long business relationship with Jerome […]

There are a lot of liberals out there who’ve called George Bush a liar because no large quanities of WMDs had been found in Iraq. It didn’t matter that plenty of Democrats with access to intelligence reports came to exactly the same conclusion; it was, “Bush lied and people died.” It didn’t matter that intelligence […]

Earlier this afternoon, I was in on a teleconference with Congressmen Jack Kingston and John Doolittle about what’s being hailed in some corners as the death of the Senate Immigration Bill this year. Kingston and Doolittle opened things up by saying that the death tax and line item veto are going to come back up […]

In Utah’s Third District, John Jacob is taking on the incumbent, Chris Cannon, in what’s shaping up to be one of the most hotly contested primary races in America. Cannon, a 5-time incumbent, is a huge supporter of the amnesty bill in the Senate and to give you an idea of how pro-illegal immigrant Cannon […]

It’s bad enough that the sore losers on the left carp endlessly about George W. Bush defeating Al Gore in Florida, but at least you can understand it. It was a really close election that Bush won by only 537 votes. Then there was the U.S. Supreme Court stepping in to stop the Florida Supreme […]

“Homeland Security Secretary Michael Chertoff promised Tuesday to end the “catch and release” policy that has allowed tens of thousands of non-Mexican illegal aliens to disappear within the United States. “Return every single illegal entrant — no exceptions,” Chertoff said in prepared testimony to a Senate Judiciary Committee (search) hearing on proposals to overhaul the […]

The Reality-Based Community. Strong. Smart. Frankly, I see this situation as so important that I do not cultivate or initiate friendships or even associations with Neocons if I can avoid it. I will tolerate opposing points of view (such as TRUE conservatism) if it is not accompanied by support for the Pig Bush. … I […]

DarkSyde at the DailyKos is trying to find a short, unifying slogan for the Kwazy Kos Kids. He has his suggestions, but here are mine: * I’m Running Out of Tin-Foil! * Stop Laughing at Me! * ‘Don’t Eat Paint Chips’ Is One of Bush’s Lies! * You Say “Angry” Isn’t a Platform? YOU SHUT […]

Unfortunately, my DSL kicked out last night and it prevented my being able to get the daily news completed in a timely manner. It’ll be back tomorrow. Sorry for the inconvenience.

Last week, Dani Cutler, an endearingly perky liberal, did a roughly 45 minute long interview with me for her podcast show, Truth Seekers. Well today, Dani put up the first part of the interview and you can listen to it here. It was very conversational and Dani was extremely nice, so nice that I think […]

The left-wing reaction to American soldiers being tortured and murdered? Boiled down to its essence, it’s, “We deserved it and it’s all Bush’s fault.” Read it yourself. From a recommended diary at the Daily Kos called So our boys were tortured – how quaint, by occams hatchet: “The bodies of the two captured U.S. soldiers […]

I’m scheduled to be on the The Lynne Breidenbach Show today from 4:35-4:53 EST to talk about Hillary Clinton and Third Parties. You can listen to it live here. Update #1: We talked a lot about 2008, third parties, the impact of the blogosphere and the Democratic “non-agenda.” It was a a lot of fun.

People get oh so upset about how detainees at Gitmo are treated. International human rights groups condemn us over Gitmo, foreign governments complain, and liberals get their pillows all wet because they spend their nights crying themselves to sleep over how the terrorists we’ve caught are treated. But, how do the terrorists treat our soldiers […]

“Thus far four of the 18 provinces are ready for the transfer of power — two in the north (Irbil and Sulaymaniyah) and two in the south (Maysan and Muthanna). Nine more provinces are nearly ready. With the governors of each province meeting these strict objectives, Iraq’s ambition is to have full control of the […]

— Judging by his comments this week-end, the lesson John Murtha apparently took from Somalia and Beirut was to cut’n’run when the going gets tough. But, given that cutting and running encourages our enemies, isn’t the real lesson that we shouldn’t get involved militarily in any country unless we’re willing to hang in there even […]

As conservatives, we believe in the wisdom of the markets. We believe that the free market is better at allocating capital than government planners. We note that communism caused the USSR to collapse, and socialism has caused stagnation in Old Europe, while the U.S. and other relatively free-market economies (Australia, Hong Kong, New Zealand, the […]

On Friday, I said this about Ann Coulter: “It’s also worth noting that for all the hullabaloo what Ann Coulter has said, comments that are just as rude & vicious as the ones Ann makes are the rule, not the exception on the left. It’s not the least bit unusual for liberals to call conservatives […]

Ole Cut’N’Run, John Murtha, who seems to be the closest thing the Democrats have to hawkish expert on foreign policy these days, offered up some real gems on Tim Russert’s show yesterday: REP. MURTHA: He’s, he’s in New Hampshire. He’s making a political speech. He’s sitting in his air conditioned office with his big, fat […]

Newsmax wrote another story on the Coulter/Murtha/Fragging comment from the interview. “In an e-mail interview by John Hawkins at the Right Wing News Web site, Coulter was asked to give her opinion of certain people, among them anti-war Congressman Murtha, D-Pa. In a style familiar to journalists who have quizzed her via e-mail, Coulter responded […]

In the age we live in, even something as innocuous as a business requiring people to have a nice, neat haircut if they’re going to work with the public is portrayed as an insensitive, racist practice that may lead to lawsuits. From a WAPO article on the “controversial” Six Flags haircut policy: “It’s right there, […]

“North Korea appears to have completed fueling a long-range ballistic missile, American officials said Sunday, a move that greatly increases the probability that it will go ahead with its first important test launching in eight years. …American intelligence officials say they believe that the system is a Taepodong 2 missile and that a three-stage version […]

You know how open borders advocates are always claiming that Mexicans are doing jobs that Americans won’t do? Well, according to the New York Times, there are so many Mexicans pouring into the US, that illegal immigrants are now going into Mexico to do the jobs that Mexicans won’t do: “Here at Mexico’s own southern […]
