Question: “Having read your post on Lugar and Voinovoich, do you advocate a military strike against Iran? Do you really believe Bush is directly allowing Iranians to kill Americans? And finally if the Republicans lose their resolve as they seem to be doing aka Lugar what would be the best exit strategy? I know that […]

Question: “Okay, so the whole Romney-and-the-dog thing. Big deal? Kind of a deal? Who cares? Weird in your view?” — maledicta Answer: First of all, here’s the story, “Before beginning the (12 hour) drive, Mitt Romney put Seamus, the family’s hulking Irish setter, in a dog carrier and attached it to the station wagon’s roof […]

Question: “Are there any non-lethal crimes (aside from treason) for which you would favor the death penalty as punishment?” — maledicta Answer: Rape and child molestation immediately come to mind. I’d favor the death penalty in both of those cases.

Question: “John, if someone had asked me to lay money on a professional wrestler committing murder, current or former, I could name a few and none of them, until this past Sunday, would be Chris Benoit. Even with the facts still coming out, are you like me just as shocked?” — Corperate_Cabana “I would like […]

Question: “How about a topic that we all can enjoy? How did you decide on Patton for a pet? Why a dog instead of a cat or canary? Why his breed? Why him instead of one of his other litter mates? Temperament? Looks? Will you ever breed him?” — Cartman Answer: When I was in […]

Yesterday, I put up a list of the 10 hottest celebs out there — in my opinion, anyway (Unfortunately, I forgot Posh Spice). Here are some pics of all these celebs for you to check out. Jessica Alba Jennifer Aniston Mariah Carey Lisa Edelstein Kim Kardashian Lucy Liu Denise Richards Kelly Ripa Sarah Silverman Michelle […]

Today will be Q&A Friday #68 at RWN. So, if there’s a subject you’ve been wanting me to tackle or an issue you want to hear my opinion on, just ask your question in the comments section. Your question can be about politics, ideology, history, blogging, RWN, from a liberal, conservative, or libertarian perspective; heck, […]

At 10:50, EST, the cloture vote is scheduled to start. I am going to be watching it live on C-Span 2 and reporting with news as soon as it becomes available. Refresh to see updates of this post. 11:00: Harry Reid is still blathering on, over time, and we’re still waiting to vote. 11:03: Here […]

Yesterday, a GOP aide, who is one of my sources in the Senate, gave me the rundown on what’s happening with the Senate immigration bill (This is the same person whom I talked to before, here (1), here (2), and here (3). First of all, on Tuesday, after the first cloture vote, the bill was […]

Technically, even if the cloture bill fails today, there is one more chance to kill it, when the final vote on the bill comes up. However, realistically, the cloture vote today is going to decide the fate of the bill. If it gets 60 votes, the amnesty bill is going to make it through the […]

According to USA Today, the Hispanic backlash against the GOP for the immigration bill is already underway, “A new USA TODAY/Gallup Poll indicates that Hispanics, by nearly 3 to 1, say they’re Democrats or lean that way. …Including independents who “lean” to one party or the other, Democrats lead Republicans among Hispanics 58% to 20%.” […]

I dumped a post that was here for a short period of time about illegal immigration and the “Chamber of Commerce” crowd because I wanted to rewrite it, improve it, add to it, and run it as a column. Tomorrow, the new and improved post will run at Townhall and RWN.

Hat tip to Blackfive for the video.

Earlier today, I went through the extensive quote section at Right Wing News and picked out 100 of my favorite quotes. Enjoy! For the time will come when men will not put up with sound doctrine. Instead, to suit their own desires, they will gather around them a great number of teachers to say what […]

The media is “oohing and awwwing” over this like Elizabeth Edwards walked out on camera with a newborn baby fawn, but it’s actually kind of pathetic, “Elizabeth Edwards pleaded Tuesday with Ann Coulter to “stop the personal attacks,” a day after the conservative commentator said she wished Edwards’ husband, Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards, had […]

Richard Lugar and George Voinovich are prepping the way for the hammer to be dropped in Iraq, “Republican support for the Iraq war is slipping by the day. After four years of combat and more than 3,560 U.S. deaths, two Republican senators previously reluctant to challenge President Bush on the war announced they could no […]

Via Polipundit, Numbers USA is saying that the 2nd cloture vote is far from a lock for the open border ‘n’ amnesty crowd, “Sen. Bond (R-Mo.) was a big disappointment today in voting YES. But on Hannity tonight he called the bill a “june bug.” The longer people look at it and see it out […]

You frequently see liberals using the fact that there are roughly 45 million people without health insurance in the United States each year to promote socialized medicine. However, even though there are some people who genuinely find health insurance to be prohibitively expensive or have medical conditions that make it difficult for them to be […]

Via my pal Michelle Malkin, “The House Republican Conference today by 114 to 23 passed a resolution introduced by U.S. Rep. Pete Hoekstra (R-MI) that expresses opposition to the Senate immigration bill. “Today’s vote illustrates overwhelming opposition among Republicans in the House to the Senate immigration bill and the process in which it was developed,” […]

Well, the open borders ‘n’ amnesty crowd won the first round with room to spare. They needed 60 votes and they got 64. Here is the list of senators that voted for open borders ‘n’ amnesty, Akaka (D-HI) Bennett (R-UT) Biden (D-DE) Bingaman (D-NM) Bond (R-MO) Boxer (D-CA) Brown (D-OH) Brownback (R-KS) Burr (R-NC) Cantwell […]

I’m not sure I’ve ever heard of Sally Quinn before, which is all well and good, because she may be the most clueless person writing for a mainstream media outlet in the whole of the United States — and that’s saying something. I say that based on nothing more than her ludicrous column in the […]

Yesterday, I polled RWN’s readers on who their least favorite Republican Senator was. 1426 votes later, here are the results, Lindsey Graham: 22% Arlen Specter: 19% John McCain: 15% Chuck Hagel: 14% Trent Lott: 13% Mel Martinez: 5% George Voinovich: 2% Olympia Snowe: 2% Ted Stevens: 2% None of the above: 1% Jon Kyl: 1% […]

This convict doesn’t understand why he keeps drawing the attention of the police. The swastika on the forehead is always classy. Some believe the tatoos comprise a complex semiotic code, which reads, in part, “I’m probably not a ‘good hire,’ nor am I ‘the one’ for your underage daughter.” The actual story is kind of […]

Next time you hear some European elitist turn a nose up about American materialism, you should think of this story. Americans last year gave a record amount of charity. Americans gave nearly $300 billion to charitable causes last year, setting a record and besting the 2005 total that had been boosted by a surge in […]

Folks, tomorrow — TOMORROW — the immigration bill is scheduled to hit the floor of the Senate. Most people seem to agree that this bill is balanced on a knife’s edge and it could go either way. That means one senator who gets one phone call, email, or fax that breaks the camel’s back could […]
