Who was it that said that McCain isn’t an inspiring speaker? America is worth fighting for, so fight. Hat Tip: Jay at Stop the ACLU Cross-posted from Cassy’s blog. Stop by for more original commentary!

Story here. WASHINGTON (AP) – Barack Obama’s aunt, a Kenyan woman who has been quietly living in public housing in Boston, is in the United States illegally after an immigration judge rejected her request for asylum four years ago, The Associated Press has learned. Zeituni Onyango, 56, referred to as “Aunti Zeituni” in Obama’s memoir, […]

Granted, I should have probably run this poll on Thursday so I could run the responses on Halloween, but better late than never. What’s the best horror film of all-time? Alien The Amityville Horror (New Version) The Blair Witch Project Candyman Carrie The Exorcist Final Destination The Fog (Original film) Hellraiser House of a Thousand […]

I headed over to the local polling place today, where it was a madhouse — or maybe it just seemed that way because some idiot blocked my car out in the road for about two minutes while he maneuvered his truck around to get a campaign sign on the side of his vehicle facing the […]

Danny Glover sent me this fine work that illustrates the difference between voter mentality: Which voter are you? The answer to this question will determine the election. Cross-posted at MelissaClouthier.com

Talk about the “Great Set-up”, the con continues with attempts at lowering expectations. Joe Biden recently explained that the rich are now those making $150,000. Bill Richardson takes it down another notch: Do I hear $100,000? $95,000? Love these “new” politics, don’t you? [Crossposted at QandO]

Moonbats are licking their chops at the prospect of what a Marxist president backed up by an irresponsible Dem-dominated Congress could make possible. An editorial at the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette denounces conservative domination of talk radio as “un-American” and stridently calls for the imposition of the Orwellian “Fairness Doctrine” to put an end to it by […]

I have eschewed McCain campaign teleconferences for a long while (details here), but I got invited to one today and decided to go to get the campaign’s final spin on the election. The McCain team members there were, Rick Davis, Campaign Manager, McCain-Palin 2008 Bill Mcinturff, Pollster, McCain-Palin 2008 Mike Duhaime, National Political Director, McCain-Palin […]

It’s nice to know that those of us who still believe in this country aren’t the only ones terrified of how the election will turn out. Remember the feminist soft-core porn novelist Erica Jong? She and her moonbatty friends seem be having nervous breakdowns: My friends Ken Follett and Susan Cheever are extremely worried. Naomi […]

October is on track to be the first month in which no U.S. troops have died in combat in Baghdad. But that’s not all. According to USA Today, there’s even more to celebrate, including: As of Thursday, the Pentagon had reported 13 U.S. troops killed in combat and non-combat incidents this month in Iraq. If […]

My lefty commentators and the moderate Republicans believe that success in the future will be to be even more Democrat-like. Barack Obama shares his ideas about appearing moderate but holding to ideology: In order to beat them [Republicans], it is necessary for Democrats to get some backbone, give as good as they get, brook no […]

Here’s an email I received from RWN reader Gunnar Hallgren, I am an Alaskan and have been critical of Ted Stevens for quite a while, but I am a little torn on what to do now. Before he was found guilty, I was going to hold my nose (very tightly) and vote for him (like […]

1) John McCain doesn’t believe we should raise taxes on anybody during a recession. Obama does and that will prolong our economic woes. 2) John McCain has been endorsed by the NRA. Barack Obama once supported a complete ban on the manufacture and ownership of handguns in America. 3) John McCain co-sponsored a bill to […]

Just when I think the country is going down the crapper, I see this and have hope. Via Allah, this is just greatness: A well-educated populace makes the Democracy. Too dang cute. It helps that I love this song. Lyrics: Obama on the left McCain on the right We can talk politics all night And […]

One of my friends just sent this to me. I have no idea whether it’s true or not, but I thought it was cute and decided to post it on RWN… Today on my way to lunch I passed a homeless guy with a sign that read “Vote Obama, I need the money.” I laughed. […]

One of the most striking examples of the Big Lie tactic is the Left’s ability to pass off fascism and Nazism as phenomena of the Right. Mussolini, the father of fascism, came from a socialist background, and was inspired by Democrat Woodrow Wilson, who has been called the world’s first modern dictator. The term “fascist” […]

A reader who saw my post about the relationship of Rashid Khalidi and Barack Obama emailed me a great video, which he found through The Jawa Report. He suggested that I post this, as it provides more information regarding Obama and his Palestinian ties: What do you think? Would Obama be a friend to the […]

Barney Frank is the personification of Democrat degeneracy and corruption. One of his homosexual lovers ran a prostitution service out of Frank’s own home. After 9/11, we learned that our national security had been weakened by Frank’s campaign to make it easier for homosexuals with AIDS to enter the country. His rhetoric is shamelessly over […]

Lefties are always trying to claim that conservatives are violent, radical, and dangerous based on things like non-existent people supposedly shouting “kill him” at a McCain rally. Meanwhile, one of the bloggers over at the Huffington Post just killed her roommate by stabbing her to death 222 times with a screw driver, Carol Anne Burger […]

This election means change, alright, but it’s not the changes that seem evident at first blush.The Wall Street Journal’s Daniel Henniger gets down to what this election means for America: Push past the historic candidacy, however, and one sees something even larger at stake in this vote. One sees what Joe (The Plumber) Wurzelbacher saw. […]

Isn’t it bad form for George Will, the tedious, single most over-rated Beltway bubble pundit in America, to be writing a snobby column trashing John McCain and Sarah Palin on the Wednesday before the election? I’m sick and tired of these prissy jackasses and Beltway bubbleheads who put a higher priority on getting on the […]

Over at Reason, Ryan Sager has a half-baked election analysis that I thought was worth addressing, Based on an analysis of the American National Election Studies, Cato found that between 2000 and 2004, there was a substantial flight of libertarians away from the Republican Party and toward the Democrats. While libertarians preferred Bush by a […]

This is an amazing race. The incumbent president has approval ratings somewhere between Robert Mugabe and the ebola virus. The economy is supposedly on the brink of global Armageddon. McCain has only $80 million to spend, while Obama’s burning through $600 mil as fast as he can, and he doesn’t really need to spend a […]

Walter Williams, who may be the single most underrated conservative pundit, made a brilliant point about oil prices, Since July this year, crude oil prices have fallen from $147 to $64 a barrel. Similarly, average gasoline prices have fallen from over $4 to a national average of $2.69 a gallon. When crude oil and gasoline […]

Investigative reporter Matthew Vadum reveals ACORN’s role in causing the subprime mortgage debacle: In a circa 1999 document, “To Each Their Home: Success Stories from the ACORN Housing Corporation,” the ACORN affiliate called the American Dream a sham and bragged about undermining banks’ underwriting standards. . . . ACORN Housing took credit for developing “several […]

Francis Fukuyama, another member of Bill Kristol’s neoconservative Project for the New American Century, follows “Cakewalk Ken” Adelman onto the Obama bandwagon: I’m voting for Barack Obama this November for a very simple reason. It is hard to imagine a more disastrous presidency than that of George W. Bush. It was bad enough that he […]

Sigh. I wonder if the Koz kids are sad Barack Obama broke his promise about public financing? Doubt it. Wow, he’s Mr. America; the every man. He’ll BUILD OUR MILITARY? Ha! And He’ll renew diplomacy. Well, the idea is to make him look like the president already. So far it’s succeeding. This is propaganda done […]
