“It’s not that the Democrats aren’t trying to engage the Republicans on the issue of national security, it is that their positions are so nonsensical that normal people (defined as outside the beltway non-partisan types) just can’t make sense of whatever it is the Democrats are talking about. It’s possible that a majority of Americans […]

From Joel Stein in the LA Times: “I DON’T SUPPORT our troops. This is a particularly difficult opinion to have, especially if you are the kind of person who likes to put bumper stickers on his car. Supporting the troops is a position that even Calvin is unwilling to urinate on. …But I’m not for […]

It’s bad enough that Brokeback Mountain has been relentlessly overhyped like no movie in recent memory, so much so that even George Bush is getting questioned about it. But, last night, I actually had someone, who was completely puzzled, say to me that she’d been watching the coverage of Brokeback Mountain and didn’t understand how […]

Over at the Young America’s Foundation, they’re selling Ann Coulter posters: That’s not just a splendid picture, it’s a splendid idea — except — they’re thinking too small. What we actually need is a — let’s call it a Conservababe calender. May I make some suggestions? Why, of course I can (and yes, each link […]

William Rivers Pitt, one of the favorite liberal loonies of the Democratic Underground crowd, has a great — if by great, you mean cracked — ideas for the Democrats: I have a wild and crazy idea. George W. Bush’s delivery of the State of the Union address will take place on Tuesday, January 31, a […]

Hugh Hewitt highlights the wacky comments that Harry Belafonte said on CNN today. HB: Mr. Blitzer, let me say this to you. Perhaps, just perhaps, if the Jews of Germany and people spoken out much earlier and had resisted the tyranny that was on the horizon, perhaps we would never have had Adolph Hitler and […]

Last week, lefties all across the blogosphere got their noses out of joint because Chris Matthews pointed out that Osama Bin Laden, in his last video, sounded like Michael Moore: “Why is [bin Laden] doing it? Why is he trying to track what he picks up in the internet and from the media as the […]

Right Wing News emailed more than 230 right-of-center bloggers and asked them to send us a ranked list 1-5 of the candidates that they would most like to take the Republican nomination for President in 2008 and the 1-5 candidates they’d least like to see as the Republican nominee in 2008. Representatives from the following […]

Now is the time of year when William Saletan tells us that we should stop arguing about abortion and just keep women from getting pregnant in the first place. Well, thank you, Dr. Insight. Hey guys–let’s stop arguing about the death penalty, and make it so no one ever commits heinous murders! The insistence that […]

Madman on Collision Course with Oprah After a brief mention in his terror tape last week turned a little-known book into an instant best-seller, al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden today announced that he was officially launching “Osama’s Book Club.” Mr. bin Laden’s glancing reference to “Rogue State: A Guide to the World’s Only Superpower” […]

Security and freedom are flip sides of the same coin. To increase the amount of freedom we have, we have to give up some security and vice versa. This is not always apparent, but it’s always true. For example, because we fear other people stealing our property, we have locks on our cars and homes. […]

Jimmy Carter, who was one of the worst Presidents of the last century and one of the worst Presidents in American history, keeps reminding the American people that he is still out there working hard to make people say, “I can’t believe that guy was ever President!” Today, in a display of naivete befitting an […]

From conservative Dick Cheney…. “On the tape, bin Laden warned that his fighters are preparing new attacks in the United States but offered the American people a “long-term truce” without specifying the conditions. Cheney, in a television interview, rejected that suggestion, saying “We don’t negotiate with terrorists.” “I think you have to destroy them,” he […]

“Furthermore, you should never, never, never, forget about judges. Because liberalism is so unpopular, the Democrats count on getting activist liberal judges to implement their agenda over the protests of the voters (perfect example: gay marriage in Massachusetts). Because the Senate Republicans have wimped out, the Dems have managed to block a number of Bush’s […]

It’s bad enough that rapcious local officials have been using the Kelo decision to claw people’s homes away from them and hand them to their developer buddies, but now, they’re going after churches too: “For seven years, Reverend Roosevelt Gildon has preached the gospel at the Centennial Baptist Church in Sand Springs, Oklahoma. His congregation, […]

Oh yeah, this is really going to work: “Hamas is paying a spin doctor $180,000 (£100,000) to persuade Europeans and Americans that it is not a group of religious fanatics who relish suicide bombings and hate Jews.

If you want to know why Israel has never been able to make peace with the Palestinians, you need look no further than Uncle Hazim, a government sanctioned television show for kids sponsored by Hamas. That’s right, we’re talking about a terrorist group whose goal is not the creation of a Palestinian state, but genocide […]

It looks like a few members of the Tennessee Highway Patrol have started playing by the same set of rules that Congress does with lobbyists: “State troopers who fix tickets as favors — even for someone who gives them gifts — are not breaking the law, the Knox County prosecutor has determined for Gov.

Last night was the first time I’ve ever heard of Boomershoot, but wow does it sound like fun: “Boomershoot is an annual pyrotechnic event held in North Central Idaho, where precision rifle shooters aim at exploding targets.

“Imagine the kerfuffle (if Jesus came back today). He comes back, and He goes on TV and says, “Okay, homosexuality is wrong. Sex outside of marriage is wrong. Stop watching porn. Quit smoking dope. And by the way, Islam, Buddhism, Hinduism, and all the other non-Christian religions are wrong, so stop practicing them.” Every fat […]

“Sam Alito marks the final purging of the Bork experience. All the Democrats could do was scream about his inactive membership – back in the ’70s – in CAP, Concerned Alumni of Princeton, which had a magazine called Prospect, which once ran an article, apparently satirical, complaining about Princeton admitting co-eds. In my mind, the […]
