A Christmas Tree Moonbats Can Wipe Their Feet On

Posted on December 2, 2009 by Dave Blount

What would happen if moonbats designed a Christmas tree? This: When is a Christmas tree not a Christmas tree? When it is a giant cone covered in what appears to be green doormats. Shoppers stared in bemusement at the mysterious object that landed in a shopping precinct in Poole, Dorset, this week. Some compared it […]

Phil Jones, ClimateGate Casualty

Posted on December 2, 2009 by Dave Blount

Phil Jones, director of the prestigious Climate Research Unit at the University of East Anglia, has been shown the door as a result of having been exposed as a charlatan by the ClimateGate emails: The university says Phil Jones will relinquish his position until the completion of an independent review into allegations that he worked […]

Another Terrorist Dry Run

Posted on December 2, 2009 by Melissa Clouthier

Remember the flight from Atlanta to Houston that got turned around because of the guy who wouldn’t get off the phone? That’s not what happened. From the website Nobody Asked Me via Pierre LeGrand: I was in 1st class coming home. 11 Muslim men got on the plane in full attire. 2 sat in 1st […]

Guess Which Country Is AGW Evil

Posted on December 2, 2009December 2, 2009 by William Teach

Venezuala? Iran? Saudi Arabia? Or, we can always go with the ever popular (among climahysterics) United States. Sorry, none of the above, as climate alarmist George Monbiot weighs in When you think of Canada, which qualities come to mind? The world’s peacekeeper, the friendly nation, a liberal counterweight to the harsher pieties of its southern […]

DUmmies Upset With Obama For Escalating The “Stupid War”

Posted on December 2, 2009 by William Teach

The cat is formally out of the bag. We on the right all knew that most progressives never supported the war in Afghanistan. We’ve heard little snippets from them over the year, and seen them wanting to leave Afghanistan many times at their peace protests (which often get violent, and are certainly filthy.) Now, via […]

Returning Obama To Reality

Posted on December 1, 2009 by McQ

I guess we’re fresh out of unicorns and rainbows and claims to have improved America’s standing in the world today. As you recall, while in China and during an interview there, Obama made the claim that he had changed the world’s attitude about the US. And his claim was based on some poll which apparently […]

More Money In Climate Skepticism? “Hardly.”

Posted on December 1, 2009December 1, 2009 by Duane Lester

I don’t know if New York Times columnist Paul Krugman is simply ignorant, or if he was simply lying, but he said something this Sunday on ‘This Week” with George Stephanopoulos that I have to discuss. He said: KRUGMAN: There is tremendously more money in being a skeptic than there is in being a supporter. […]

Liveblogging Obama’s Speech On Afghanistan At 8 PM EST

Posted on December 1, 2009December 1, 2009 by John Hawkins

Tonight at 8 PM EST, I’ll be liveblogging Obama’s speech on Afghanistan. So, if you’re watching, make sure to head over to RWN, refresh to read the real time commentary, and chip in your two cents in the comments section. 7:25: Supposedly, Obama is going to set up a “timeline” in this speech. That was […]

Lewis Diuguid: Ice Cream for Breakfast and a Unicorn in Every Garage

Posted on December 1, 2009December 1, 2009 by Warner Todd Huston

Kansas City Star columnist Lewis Diuguid is, I am forced to believe, completely addicted to some sort of hallucinogenic drug. What else could explain Diuguid’s serious echoing of the unserious proposal of a federal “department of peace” offered by that well known UFO enthusiast from Ohio, Dennis Kucinich? Oddly, Diuguid seems to think that this […]

New Lefty Outrage: Gasp, Sarah Palin Flies in Planes!

Posted on December 1, 2009December 1, 2009 by Warner Todd Huston

Al Gore flies all across the world destroying the environment with his travels so that he can sell the fantasy of globaloney. Hundreds of government officials will be crisscrossing the globe flying to Copenhagen to “save the planet” at the upcoming Climate Conference this December. All are adding to what leftists call global warming and […]

UN’s Green Blueprint for World Domination

Posted on December 1, 2009 by Dave Blount

Like Dr. Evil in an Austin Powers movie, the authoritarian bureauweenies infesting the United Nations have an actual plan for world domination. It rests on the thoroughly discredited global warming hoax. Environmentalism should be regarded on the same level with religion “as the only compelling, value-based narrative available to humanity,” according to a paper written […]

Supporting President Obama

Posted on December 1, 2009December 1, 2009 by Kathleen McKinley

I’m going to get a head start on Obama’s Afghanistan war speech, because after he speaks it will be all people are talking about. It looks: as if: Obama is going to give Gen. McChrystal just about all he wanted in troop levels (30,000 troops). Obama tells us he has a plan and we just need to […]

ACORN: A Money Laundering Scheme?

Posted on December 1, 2009 by Melissa Clouthier

Matthew Vadum of the American Spectator investigates: I have just discovered that three senior ACORN officials have recently given wildly divergent accounts of the size of ACORN’s budget. ACORN current CEO and chief organizer Bertha Lewis claimed in October that ACORN had an “average budget” between “$20 [million] and $25 million a year for everything, […]

Bill Ayers, De Facto Education Czar

Posted on December 1, 2009 by Dave Blount

Someone’s missing from Chairman Zero’s long list of czars: Education Czar Bill Ayers, the Maoist terrorist who bombed the Capitol Building and the Pentagon, was let off on a technicality (as KSM could be), then discovered that he could do more damage to America by joining the education establishment and grooming a certain left-wing community […]

Uh Oh. Now The NY Times Discusses Bad Science In ClimateGate

Posted on December 1, 2009December 1, 2009 by William Teach

Of course, the Grey Lady’s main investigative journalists, the ones who get published on the front page, aren’t involved. Instead, John Tierney’s piece is published on the science pages: E-Mail Fracas Shows Peril of Trying to Spin Science If you have not delved into the thousands of e-mail messages and files hacked from the computers […]

Tiger Woods Can’t Win This Game

Posted on December 1, 2009 by Melissa Clouthier

Tiger Woods is in the deep rough today. He’s avoiding talking to the police. They’re seeking search warrants for his medical records. This is a disaster of monumental proportions for the golf star. No matter what he loses. He was either under the influence of some controlled and crashed his vehicle. Or, he was beat […]

Birther Ad Is Not Raaaaacist, It’s Just Stupid

Posted on December 1, 2009 by William Teach

As usual, a far left web site has gone stark raving bonkers. Yes, yes, I know, this isn’t actually shocking or special. But, yesterday, Think Progress has ramped up the bat s**t crazy to level 8 Washington Times Runs Anti-Obama Birther Ad Featuring Racial Undertones This latest national edition of the Washington Times features a […]

Best Liberal Idea Yet: Let’s Rehabilitate The Jihadis!

Posted on December 1, 2009December 1, 2009 by John Hawkins

On a regular basis, liberals offer up appallingly dumb solutions to problems that they created in the first place. For example, there’s no real reason that we need to close the jail for Jihadis we have at Guantanamo Bay. It’s a muddleheaded, completely arbitrary choices that creates more issues than it solves. One of those […]

Five More Amateur Mistakes By the Obama Administration

Posted on December 1, 2009January 2, 2010 by John Hawkins

“My fellow citizens, the American presidency is not supposed to be a journey of personal discovery.” — Sarah Palin Since he has been elected, Barack Obama has been like a four year old wearing water wings and desperately trying to reach the edge of the pool. In other words, he has been completely out of […]

“Science” Or Politics?

Posted on December 1, 2009 by McQ

Raw politics, of course. The rationalization begins by those with a vested interest (don’t forget the IPCC was awarded a Nobel prize for this scientific twaddle) in the “scientific consensus”. In defense of the indefensible, the powers to be try to minimize what they can’t dismiss: There is “virtually no possibility” of a few scientists […]

Thumbs Up Or Thumbs Down?

Posted on December 1, 2009December 1, 2009 by rwnadmin

You may have noticed the “thumbs up / thumbs down” icons in the corner of the posts on RWN. Percentage wise, very few readers of RWN rate posts — and that’s too bad — because that information helps the bloggers here know what you like. So, don’t hesitate to rate the posts. It may have […]

No One Remembers Barack Obama From Columbia

Posted on November 30, 2009 by Melissa Clouthier

An email is going around with this as the content: NOBODY REMEMBERS OBAMA AT COLUMBIA Looking for evidence of Obama’s past, Fox News contacted 400 Columbia University students from the period when Obama claims to have been there, but none remembered him. Wayne Allyn Root was, like Obama, a political science major at Columbia who […]

In Defense Of Mike Huckabee: The Maurice Clemmons Clemency

Posted on November 30, 2009November 30, 2009 by John Hawkins

Mike Huckabee apparently should have erred more on the side of caution in dispensing pardons when he was governor of Arkansas. He pardoned rapist Wayne DuMond, who then later raped another woman. Now, it looks like he’s done it again — well, sort of. Maurice Clemmons, the lunatic who murdered four policemen, was given clemency […]

Cindy Shehag Still Spreading Patriotic Cheer

Posted on November 30, 2009 by Dave Blount

Cindy Sheehan was the darling of the liberal media establishment, before it dumped her for its new love, Barack Hussein Obama. But she’s still out there promoting the progressive agenda. Here she displays her respect for a veteran: This sordid scene occurred at Travis Air Force Base on Saturday. Videotape of the incident shows that […]

Chairman Zero Falls Flat With Arabs

Posted on November 30, 2009 by Dave Blount

Of all the annoying bumper sticker bleats that Obamunists subject us to, the most absurd is their cherished notion that letting a sophomoric community activist moonbat play president will “restore America’s standing in the world.” America’s standing didn’t need restoration, although it will before this tragic farce is over with. But everyone likes us now, […]

Obama Knew The Crashers? He Met Them Before

Posted on November 30, 2009 by Melissa Clouthier

In case you missed it this weekend… Is there more to this story? The Anchoress thinks so. Gateway Pundit has more details about how the Crashers are buddies with Obama’s buddy terrorist-loving Rashid Khalidi. Anyway, American Power has more. I just wanted you guys to know that there might be more story behind the fame-grabbing […]

NBC and CBS Researching Climategate; Still No Coverage [Proof]

Posted on November 30, 2009 by Alex Nobles

So NBC, and CBS, if you see this blog know that you now have no excuse not to cover climategate. The American people have a right to know what is going on, not just what fits your agenda. We are sick and tired of the lack of coverage of important stories like this one. Perhaps, […]

“You’ve Come A Long Way, Maybe”

Posted on November 30, 2009 by Kathleen McKinley

Leslie Sanchez, a Republican strategist and former advisor to President George Bush, has written a timely book about politics and the American woman. In “You’ve Come A Long Way, Maybe,” she takes a hard non partisan look at three woman in particular. Sarah Palin, Michelle Obama, and Hillary Clinton. It is fascinating to compare such […]

Obama: King of All Statists

Posted on November 30, 2009November 30, 2009 by Warner Todd Huston

Almost 40% of William Howard Taft’s cabinet officials were from the private sector. Ike had nearly 60% of his appointees sporting private sector experience. Reagan had about 55% and George W. Bush about 53%. Even FDR and Truman had half their cabinet officials with private sector experience. And Obama? Less than 10%. That means that […]
