Year: 2009

My concern with the health care debate is that the American people will just be worn down. There has been a lot of wolf crying with non-stop media hysteria. Well, the wolf wants to devour a sixth of the American economy. The wolf is here. The time to fight is now: You are so sick […]

My buddy Jaz McKay had just one wish for his birthday: that I would post his bio on Right Wing News. He’s a great guy, a fantastic radio host, a friend of mine, and someone who has relentlessly promoted Right Wing News on his show, which is number one in his time slot; so I […]

This podcast includes info on the Palin Non-Divorce, finding your mission, how the Left will describe the right during the fight, and more. Bloggers mentioned: The Anchoress, Michelle Malkin, Allah Pundit, Dan Riehl, and Stacy McCain. Download MP3 Melissa’s […]

During the August recess, I’d love to have everyone ask their Congress Critters, at least Democrat ones, as they are leading the charge to a government run single payer health – using the word “care” just doesn’t seem right – system, one question, and make them answer: “how will this plan reduce costs?” I suspect […]

Very interesting story regarding what Timmy Geithner did and said last Friday. Memeorandum picked up the Wall Street Journal version, but, I’m going to use the Reuters version because the on-line version of the WSJ story is a paid for one, so you can only get the first couple paragraphs (I did real the whole […]

To liberals, actually pointing out when they’re lying through their teeth is considered to be dirty politics and, in the case of the Obama Administration, perhaps racist, too. Still, despite the risk of infuriating Barack Obama’s dwindling number of supporters, someone needs to point out that he may already be able to challenge Bill Clinton […]

Did you know that the election of Barack Obama means that conservatism is dead forever more? The New Yorker thinks it is anyway. Its recent piece on the authors of the “Little House on the Prairie” series not only pronounces conservatism likely dead but also imagines the same fate for capitalism itself. This is just […]

That’s what the UK Times is reporting: Iran has perfected the technology to create and detonate a nuclear warhead and is merely awaiting the word from its Supreme Leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, to produce its first bomb, Western intelligence sources have told The Times. The sources said that Iran completed a research programme to create […]

Debra Saunders–who is quickly becoming my favorite co-columnist at Townhall–had a really interesting piece yesterday about left-wing group The Sentencing Project. Their plan for dealing with vicious rapists and murderers? Give them “alternatives” to prison. Really? Do they think that would be an appropriate sentence for people like John Couey, a convicted sex offender who […]

I have a good idea: Let’s raise taxes when tax revenues are dropping from a recession!

Federalism is one of the key bulwarks that have defended America from the totalitarianism we now feel tightening around our necks. So it’s no surprise that the snooty statists at The New Yorker would denounce it: If you came up with a list of obstacles to economic recovery in this country, it would include all […]

Just how crazy do you have to be to make Science Czar in the Obamination Administration? We already know that John Holdren wanted to put a sterilizing agent in our drinking water, and that he doesn’t regard children as human until they have been socialized. He also wants to “dedevelop” the United States, reducing it […]

Losing $40 million to host the Obama gab-fests? Turning into a big propaganda arm for the Leftist government? Selling your soul and your credibility to be pals with your ideological hero? Poor, poor television networks. If the major networks go over the economic edge because their lips are forever locked on the President’s butt, may […]

Really, the Cash for Clunkers deal is another government program where one part of the population subsidizes another part of the population. First, banks. Second, houses. Third, car companies. Fourth, extended unemployment. Now, cars for citizens. Part of me doesn’t mind the last one because there is at least something tangible coming out of this […]

There’s a lot of contradictory information floating around about the health care bills winding their way through Congress; so late last week I talked to Congressman Steve King to get the real scoop on what these bills contain. What follows is a slightly edited transcript of our conversation. 1) First of all, if the bill […]

These “Obama as the Joker” posters have started popping up in California and I have to admit that they look just too sweet, However, the original author is unknown and after looking around, there didn’t seem to be any life size flyers that people could actually put up in their area. So, I decided to […]

Before I get started, let me say that the content on what was Conservative Grapevine (Now Linkiest) and the content on what was Right Wing Video (Now Viral Footage) is NOT going to change. Let me repeat that: The content on both websites is NOT going to change. I wanted to say that up front […]

Here’s the latest trial balloon floated by the Most Incompetent Administration Ever The Obama administration is looking at creating a courtroom-within-a-prison complex in the U.S. to house suspected terrorists, combining military and civilian detention facilities at a single maximum-security prison. Several senior U.S. officials said the administration is eyeing a soon-to-be-shuttered state maximum security prison […]

Or is that “nemisi?” Regardless, let’s see how the Republicans and Democrats will handle the health destruction debate during the August recess. I’ll skip through the New York Times article to see what the GOP will do first, and then I’ll highlight the Democrat strategy. You tell me which one will have the most problems, […]

Remember back during the Carter years when that good ol’ president from Georgia was frightened by a killer rabbit? Remember how real men everywhere ridiculed the Man from Plains for being afraid of rabbits? With that incident in mind, I cannot help but feel that the entire, unhinged left is currently in a state of […]

Insty: TRYING TO FIND THE TRUTH BEHIND the Jupiter impact. “Something invaded our solar system and whacked Jupiter, but professional astronomers were looking the other way at the time. Now, as the shock wave slowly subsides, astronomers are working around the clock to find out exactly what hit Jupiter – and why they didn’t see […]

Read this carefully. This is from George Stephanopoulos: To get the economy back on track, will President Barack Obama have to break his pledge not to raise taxes on 95 percent of Americans? In a “This Week” exclusive, Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner told me, “We’re going to have to do what’s necessary.” Geithner was clear […]

For four years now, the Gunblogger Rendezvous has been one of the largest annual meetings of bloggers who follow and write about Second Amendment rights, firearms and firearm safety, competition, hunting and gun politics. The Gunblogger Rendezvous is sponsored by several companies and individuals in the firearms industry, as well as the bloggers themselves. One […]

The remains of Navy Capt. Michael “Scott” Speicher, missing since being shot down in action during the first Gulf War, have been found: WASHINGTON – The remains of the first American lost in the Gulf War have been found in Iraq, the military said Sunday, a sorrowful resolution of a nearly two-decade old question about […]

So we got another round yesterday of Palin rumors, and as always it was nicely mixed in with loads of bile targeted at Alaska’s former Governor and anyone who would dare to see anything positive about anything she has done: Earlier this week one of my best sources claimed to have explosive new information for […]

Remember how The Politico headlined their story based on a Daily Kos (snicker)/Research 2000 poll? 58 percent of GOP not sure/doubt Obama born in US And the story A whopping 58 percent of Republicans either think Barack Obama wasn’t born in the US (28 percent) or aren’t sure (30 percent). A mere 42 percent think […]

We all keep hearing of how the costs of healthcare have skyrocketed and that the government has to “do something” about it. Obama keeps claiming, despite the evidence put out by the Congressional Budget Office, that his plan will lower costs. Still, the cost issue is central to this debate so in that vein the […]

Sorry, my left-wing friends, but today isn’t Christmas, the Palin’s aren’t getting a divorce, and you can’t have a pony. I know that your favorite blogs are running with the unsubstantiated rumor that the Palins are splitsville like Darryl Grant with an errant Gary Hogeboom pass in the 1982 NFC Championship Game, but it’s not […]

I wish it went a little longer. But, it was quite interesting that he didn’t even want to touch “Universal Healthcare.”
