Year: 2008

Yesterday, I promised to buy a hard copy of the Enquirer and follow up on the story about Obama’s mentor and father figure, Frank Davis. Well, long story short, usually the Enquirer just does a teaser on the web and saves a lot of the juicy details for the print edition — this time, not […]

Christopher Buckley, the scion of William F. Buckley is now out as a writer at National Review after submitting his resignation in the wake of a vacuous column he wrote endorsing Barack Obama. Here’s his take on the situation, “Within hours of my endorsement appearing in The Daily Beast it became clear that National Review […]

This week’s Right Wing News Radio show on blogtalkradio sounded really good — at least I think so. I talked about Barack Obama, Sarah Palin, the campaign, the future of the Republican Party, intellectualism, and moderate Republicans vs. conservatives. Also, if you’re a regular RWN reader and are wondering what happened to the “PETA” and […]

If you’ve been a long time reader of Right Wing News, you know I have a mixed opinion of George Bush. Well, today I decided to go ahead and tell you exactly what I think of him so that no one can say I withheld it until after the election. First off, I don’t regret […]

Will the sweltering heat of global warming every stop? This collection of headlines from the Drudge Report says, “Yeah, even if we weren’t already there, we’re pretty much there now”… Will the lack of actual global warming ever actually have any impact on the Chicken Littles declaring that global warming is going to kill us […]

Forget Jeff Foxworthy, that’s too low-brow, Rethuglican humor for ya’ll. Enter the erudite Dr. Obama. You might be a socialist….. ……if you believe in the redistribution of wealth. Obama said to a small business owner yesterday and Rachel Lucas reports: “It’s not that I wanna punish your success, I just wanna make sure that everybody […]

Listen to this week’s edition of Right Wing News Radio, which is on blogtalkradio. It was 30 minutes of smack talk about Barack Obama, Sarah Palin, the campaign, the future of the Republican Party, intellectualism, and a few other assorted sundry topics. Don’t miss it!

How much of the Barack Obama lovefest is rooted in Baby Boomer narcissism? That’s the question that occurred to me while contemplating why so many in the generation ahead of mine seemed so excited and irrationally so, about Barack Obama or even Hillary Clinton becoming president. The worship takes turns both comical and disturbing. The […]

As should be obvious by now, just claiming that a politician was “associated” with someone isn’t resonating with undecided voters. As Jennifer Rubin points out at Commentary, it has to be taken one step further and tied to actions and activities surrounding that association. So the way to tie Ayers to Obama isn’t necessarily to […]

ACORN has registered Mickey Mouse to vote — in Orlando, of course. Here’s the registration application: As reported by the St. Petersburg Times, it is “stamped with the logo of the nonprofit group ACORN.” What a coincidence: the Obama campaign furtively paid this same group $800,000 to get out the vote, presumably by using tactics […]

Obamunists see no need to wait for the media to install their messiah in the White House before propagandizing to children about the glories of his illustrious regime. The mother of an 8th grader in Racine writes to Real Debate Wisconsin: My 8th grade son is in an advanced English class at a public middle […]

Whether Barack Obama’s certificate of live birth that’s floating around on the net is legit or not, he is without question an American citizen. Although I have already been satisfied on that count for a while now, if you’re not, I think this post from Hot Air should do the trick for you even if […]

How crooked does your city have to be when 1/3 of your police recruits have a criminal record? As crooked as Atlanta apparently, More than one-third of recent Atlanta Police Academy graduates have been arrested or cited for a crime, according to a review of their job applications. The arrests ranged from minor offenses such […]

Folks, I’d like to take a moment to encourage you to chip in a few bucks to Tom Rooney. Why Tom Rooney? He’s a conservative Army veteran who taught criminal and constitutional law at West Point and he’s trying to take back Mark Foley’s old seat. Moreover, his opponent Tim Mahoney just made the news. […]

As all of RWN’s regular readers know, I do cover the trash tabloid circuit — and the National Enquirer has one doozie of a story about Barack Obama. Just when you thought the gang of anti-white bigots, crooks, socialists, druggies living in huts, and terrorists surrounding Obama couldn’t get any weirder or creepier comes this […]

PS: My MySpace page is here. Feel free to add yourself on as a friend.

One of the more unintentionally humorous experiences of the campaign season to people in the know is the liberal meme, pushed incessantly by the Obama campaign’s surrogates in the mainstream media, that McCain/Palin crowds are vicious, angry mobs, based on one person here or there, yelling something mildly offensive. Oh no, someone yelled “kill him” […]

As I’ve mentioned in other posts, despite the fact that the economic crisis breaks on the side of the Democrats, I’m not sure, at least in this case, that’s a net advantage. David Broder is looking down the road as well and sees pretty much the same thing. He feels that if Obama does win […]

In America, only rich people have school choice, such is the stranglehold the union has over education. Poor and middle income people find themselves stuck with what they get. When it comes to education, the Teacher’s Union is not pro-choice. They are for salaries disconnected from performance and they are for guaranteed employment. The Mexican […]

“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses […]

Like their grotesquely presumptuous messiah, moonbats are getting a little ahead of themselves, as they gloat tastelessly over the results of an election that hasn’t happened yet. Crows Slate’s Timothy Noah: There’s a new scent in the air. If you’re a Democrat, you haven’t felt it tickle your nostrils since October 1996, when everybody knew […]

My pal, Karol Sheinin over at Alarming News is “alarmed” that Johnny Mac is doubling down in Pennsylvania, When I’m making a questionable call in poker, I’ll sometimes say “I’m about to look like a total genius or a total idiot.” The guy was on a bluff and my bottom pair gets me a large […]

The scariest thing you will hear from Obamunists is the glassy-eyed assertion that their messiah will “unite us.” How is the guy with the most extreme left-wing record in the entire Senate going to unite us, when 99% of the public has a less radical point of view? Two words: brute force. Michael Barone offers […]

Readers Digest did a poll of people from around the world. Most media organizations will undoubtedly focus on the fact that the poll says the world wants Obama. Whoop-de-doo, who cares what a bunch of foreigners want? However, something else caught my eye from the poll. You constantly hear that the rest of the world […]

One of the lefty memes that has popped up about Sarah Palin is that she’s dumb. Some conservatives have even fallen for this and have quasi-accepted right off the bat that she’s not as bright as the guy who thinks there are 57 states or the guy who imagined that the United States and France […]

“And I won’t belabor the point, but (Obama) has never, ever, in his entire life, made an important and/or controversial decision. In fact, for the most part, he’s practiced avoiding them. That’s because he’s never done anything which required him to do so. If you think about it, one of the reasons he’s is still […]

Usually, I try to avoid videos that go over about 3 minutes or so because people don’t watch them. But, this 9 minute long video from “Macho Sauce,” who may have already passed Mary Katherine Ham and Michelle Malkin to become the best conservative vlogger, is so entertaining and makes so many fantastic points that […]
