Year: 2008

How soon we forget. Bill Clinton a few nights ago: He recalled that 16 years ago “Republicans said I was too young and too inexperienced to be commander in chief. Sound familiar? It didn’t work in 1992 and it will not work in 2008.” Really? Well it doesn’t mean that Democrats won’t try: Rep. Diana […]

If you listened to Barack Obama’s speech on Thursday, he was promising that government is going to fix every problem that the American people have. Got too many weeds in your yard? Under an Obama Presidency, they’ll send someone around to pull ’em up. Need someone to watch the kids while you run to Blockbuster […]

The website of the day is Sarah Palin Facts.    

So, you may be asking yourself: is the Sarah Palin pick going to move any Hillary voters over to John McCain? To answer that question, I headed over (after being told about a link at Right Wing Sparkle) to the Hillary Clinton forum and looked at a thread called “Sarah Palin is McCain’s VP selection!!” […]

Let’s see how this breaks out. Foreign policy and national security are the forte of the executive. The Democrats have nominated a presidential candidate with no experience in either area. The Republicans have nominated a vice presidential candidate with no experience in either area. Which makes more sense to you? Under the topic of change, […]

Even as temperatures continue to cool, global warming hoaxers get ever hotter under the collar at the way their proclamations of imminent doom are ignored. A particularly hysterical diatribe in WaPo declares that we have only 7 years to forsake our comfortable lifestyle and submit to a government-imposed economic depression, or: The Earth is on […]

At 3:30 PM EST, I’m going to be on the Jaz McKay show. Click on Stickam in the left corner to listen to the show.

I watched Sarah Palin’s roll-out today and it was real home run. She has a great family, a great resume, and for the first time in more than a year, the crowd at a John McCain event seemed genuinely excited. Palin introduced herself to the world, talked up John McCain a bit, and delivered this […]

A little Van Halen blasting while John and Cindy McCain comes out. One thing about the smaller venue. The crowd sounds blaringly loud. Everyone is fired up There is more energy here than there was at the DNC all week. Crowd singing Happy Birthday to John McCain who is 77. Now, they’re shouting, “John McCain!” […]

You know, the surest sign that the Democrats are waking from their collective Obama hangover is this: NoVoterLeftBehind.net is a project of Democrats for America’s Future (DAF) www.americasdemocrats.org. DAF is mobilizing the NoVoterLeftBehind.net project to monitor voter registration and the actual vote on Election Day in 2008. The campaign will shine a public spotlight on […]

Yesterday, I polled RWN’s readers on the following question (the answers follow). How do you feel about the performance of George Bush? 67% Approve 33% Disapprove How do you feel about John McCain? 55% Approve 45% Disapprove How do you feel about the performance of Republicans in the House? 54% Approve 46% Disapprove How do […]

Check out the Dedication in Saul Alinsky’s infamous Rules for Radicals, a book known to have heavily influenced Barack Obama: Now I get why his most unrestrained media sycophants call Obama a “Lightworker.” Lucifer literally means “light-bringing.” On a tip from Todd S.

Changey, Conservative, & Exciting! Eric Cantor Slow And Steady Wins The Race — Hopefully. Tim Pawlenty (Minnesota has 10 electoral votes) John Thune Changey, Conservative, Exciting, And Inexperienced Sarah Palin ———————–> Only moderately happy at this point Changey Kay Bailey Hutchinson Slow, Steady, And A Little Squishy. Mitt Romney ———————–> God help us all! Nooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!! […]

Remember when Geraldine Ferraro was picked and you just knew that sunk Walter Mondale’s chances? I got the feeling then, that it wasn’t her liberal policies alone, but that she was a woman, period, that sunk them. How about 2008? America is ready for a woman Vice President. Agree Disagree    pollcode.com free polls Sarah […]

You never know how much stock to put in the rumors that are flying around about big appointments like this — actually, it’s a good idea not to put too much stock in them. The ones about the Supreme Court picks for Bush were usually wrong. However, at the moment, what’s being said is that […]

“It is with great humility that I accept this nomination at a temple in front of 80,000 with fireworks blasting overhead.” — A reader at The Corner mocks The One Before Obama’s speech, I switched from CNN, which was universally in the tank for Obama over to MSNBC to watch the coverage — and Oh. […]

Last week, I announced a blog contest that pays $50 to the best anti-socialized medicine post in the blogosphere. The winner on the first week is the Daily Danet for the post, “Why Healthcare Is Not A Right.” He’ll receive $50 for that post. Here are some bonus posts about socialized medicine that you may […]

Unless John is live blogging, and even if he is, I’ll be live blogging tonight here (if he isn’t) and over at my place (if he is). Make sense? And rather then do it sober, I’m doing this the way it should be done: eating Tex-Mex and drinking a Corona. I am a citizen of […]

Bill Clinton’s speech last night was vintage Clinton. And there is no question that to those will not dig under his words, it was effective. But it was vintage in another way as well – it was quite deceptive. For instance: He recalled that 16 years ago “Republicans said I was too young and too […]

Another little foretaste of what an Obama victory would mean for freedom of speech: Sen. Barack Obama’s campaign organized its supporters Wednesday night to confront Tribune-owned WGN-AM in Chicago for having a critic of the Illinois Democrat on its air. “WGN radio is giving right-wing hatchet man Stanley Kurtz a forum to air his baseless, […]

Hey, folks, one of my sources at the Democratic convention (I think this is one of the guys Jerome Corsi used to confirm that Bush is creating a North American Union) sent me some blockbuster footage. What you are about to see is secret footage, taken with a hidden camera, of the actual Obama campaign […]

This video is making the rounds. It is longish at around 13 minutes, but goes into the roots of black liberation theology a bit. I’m going to do another post here soon about the whole notion of race and diversity, but I’ll be interested in your feedback about this video first. Cross-posted at MelissaClouthier.com

I’ve continued watching the convention on CNN, primarily because I want to get the liberal spin as it occurs or maybe, because I am more of a masochist than I realize. Either way, CNN is very annoying. Anyway, things kicked off at 8 PM with Melissa Etheridge performing. That, CNN showed. But then, while Harry […]

It’s time for government to stop trying to helpful. In Australia: It was intended to boost the birth rate, but a legal loophole means the $5000 baby bonus can be claimed for late-term abortions. The loophole arises because abortions after 20 weeks’ gestation are recorded by doctors as stillbirths. Parents of stillborn babies receive the […]

Ted Stevens has won a primary in Alaska despite the fact that he has been indicted and looks to have taken bribes. Let me be brief and blunt: Ted Stevens is every bit as much of a crook as Duke Cunningham was and he doesn’t deserve Republican support in November. It’s tough to lose a […]

Sen. Barack Obama will portray himself Thursday night as an agent of change for mainstream America, but his eight-year voting record in the Illinois Senate shows the Democrat was on occasion an agent of isolation who took stands – particularly on anti-crime legislation – that put him to the left of his own party. Mr. […]

Over at the Democratic Underground, they have a thread called, “If they steal the election again, what then?” As you take a look at these responses, remember that for ultra-libs like the ones you are reading, “they stole the election” means the same thing as, “we lost the election.” They believe the election was “stolen” […]
