Year: 2009

The Environmental Protection Agency. The Same EPA who recently called CO2, a natural gas, a health risk, thereby helping to create the same situation they are now complaining about According to an analysis of climate legislation performed by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the cap-and-trade system favored by President Barack Obama and many congressional Democrats […]

Queen Nancy last week: “I have made the statement I am going to make on this. I don’t have anything more to say about it.” In other words, Ms. Most Ethical Congress Evah! is saying she’s done talking about it, don’t bother asking her questions, and just move on with your lives. Mahmoud Monday TEHRAN, […]

Mike Adams is a criminology professor at UNC Wilmington and one of the most popular columnists at Townhall. I got together with him last week for an interview and what follows is the slightly edited transcript of our conversation. Now you’re a university professor, a very conservative one. Why do there seem to be so […]

Everybody is guilty of being hypocritical sometimes. It’s just part of being human; however, modern liberalism has taken this concept to stunning extremes. The entire liberal belief system, from top to bottom, is a series of logical blind alleys, bottlenecks, and jaw-dropping contradictions. To be a politically active liberal is to a be a person […]

Folks, I’m working on a Major Development, which is why I didn’t post my regular video on Friday. My next video on Friday, I will answer most of your questions and comments. Best, DA

Chairman Zero might want to ask his friend Bill Gates about the difference between Memorial Day and Veterans Day. At least he means well… I guess: President Barack Obama saluted veterans and urged his countrymen to do the same this Memorial Day weekend, saying the nation has not always paid them proper respect. In his […]

Americans have been honoring our heroes for some time now. Only recently have we needed to raise our voices to do it, to be heard over the chorus of moonbats denouncing them as rapists, torturers, and fiends. Check out these WWII era posters: Americans are out there now in Iraq and Afghanistan, taking the same […]

The big buzz today will be about tin post (and prOn loving) dictator Kim Jong Il blowing off another nuke North Korea announced on Monday that it had successfully conducted its second nuclear test, defying international warnings and drastically raising the stakes in a global effort to get the recalcitrant Communist state to give up […]

One of the few things I liked about Nancy Pelosi was her strong condemnation of China for the 1989 Tiananmen Massacre. But, hey, when it comes to human induced global warming, human rights go right out the window For the second time this year, a top U.S. official visiting China has declined to publicly discuss […]

I’m taking the day off for Memorial Day and I am not sure how many of my guest bloggers will be posting. So, with that in mind, here’s some retro-RWN to keep you busy. Tomorrow, RWN will be back with a vengeance! The Myth of the Spitting Myth Part 3 Memorial Day Duty, Honor, Country […]

Hey ya’ll. Hope everyone has had a nice Memorial Day weekend so far. I’ve been honoring the sacrifices our soldiers have made by exercising my right to free speech in debating at a political forum over whether or not women being banned from being able to go out in public topless is “unconstitutional” because it […]

Jihad Watch: Poor Timing Alert: Hamas renews rocket attacks on Israel just as Obama calls for Israelis and Palestinians to live “side by side in peace and security” — Obama said this during his press conference with Netanyahu yesterday: “I have said before and I will repeat again that it is, I believe, in the […]

During the Milblogger’s conference in Washington DC, I went to Arlington National Cemetery to watch the changing of the guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier. It’s a ceremony that happens every half hour, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year. It is a somber reminder of the sacrifice many have made in […]

If his words don’t humble you, then nothing ever will. I especially was touched by his comments about what he expected from his government in return for his service. He didn’t serve in WWI and WWII because the government asked him to; he served because his country needed him. He didn’t want or expect anything […]

Wendy Sullivan scored a major coup this week: she got “columnist to the world” Mark Steyn (as Hugh Hewitt calls him) to host the first anniversary episode of her podcast Brass Balls Radio. For an hour, Steyn spun esoteric records and talked about the time he was sexually assaulted by… Well, you’ll have to download […]

Back during Obama’s campaign (which, admittedly has never ended,) he made lots of noise about outsourcing. He didn’t like it. He though it should stop. He said he would nail companies with higher taxes who practice it. Which is a strange position for anyone on the left, since they are very much into the one […]

Wayne Allyn Root, the 2008 Libertarian Party vice-presidential candidate, likes to brag on his daughter Dakota: To illustrate the remarkable talent, creativity and intelligence of home-schooled children, I offer Exhibit A: My 17-year-old daughter Dakota Root. She is beautiful; well mannered; disciplined; articulate; poised beyond her years; treats adults with respect; maintains a straight A+ […]

To set the table for discussion here, let’s start with Mark Steyn’s latest: “Statism the Only Thing Being Stimulated” I was in Vermont the other day and made the mistake of picking up the local paper. Impressively, it contained a quarter-page ad, a rare sight these days. The rest of the page was made up […]

The contrast between the incumbent President of the United States and the immediate past Vice President was not just in their near simultaneous speeches on Thursday, but in their reasons for giving them. The President had to react to the former Vice President’s; the Vice President merely wanted to set the record straight. Whereas Obama […]

There was something about Barack Obama I liked in the first part of last year’s presidential campaign. Perhaps it was just the contrast between him and Hillary Clinton, his chief rival for the Democratic nomination. He spoke well, he looked good. For a while, it seemed that this charismatic (relatively) young man could really unite […]

The first reported case of the recent outbreak of swine flu was a five-year old boy in the small village of La Gloria, Mexico. It is currently unknown how this boy contracted the swine flu on April 1, 2009. The closest pig farm, located six miles outside La Gloria, which is owned by the American […]

The National Republican Senatorial Committee’s attempt to lock up a Senate seat for Obama’s favorite Republican, Charlie Crist, is naturally causing trouble in the Florida GOP. But the guy who is actually responsible for the NRSC’s “pay up and shut up” policy is Texas Sen. John Cornyn. This raises question for Texas Republicans: Remember the […]

Finally! After California voters rejected propositions that would have raided other funds and allowed spending to continue, Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger is finally considering trimming payments for free routine health care for the poor, as well as cash college grants. With deficit forecasts growing darker by the day, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is considering a plan to […]

I must cleanse my soul, for I am about to re-tell a glorious, scrumptious tale of someone backpedaling. But in the last few hours, I have had to backpedal too, so let us tell that story first. I tossed in a quart when a pint was the correct dose. It happens. Daphne’s place is being […]

I hesitate to call it bankruptcy when it is really a sham of a bankruptcy. In fact, it is the same sham that Chrysler has undergone: The government previously indicated that it planned to take at least 50 percent of the restructured company, and likely would take the right to name members to its board […]

The Obamunist propagandists at Newsweek are experts at spin. But no one can spin a 50% drop in their circulation as positive — not even editor Jon Meacham, though he’s doing his farcical best: Jon Meacham admits it is hard to explain, even to his own people, why chopping Newsweek’s circulation in half is a […]

Bjorn Lomborg — an environmental writer who went off the reservation — shines some light on the climate-industrial complex, a corrupt alliance far more threatening than the military-industrial complex Eisenhower once warned about: The world’s largest wind-turbine manufacturer, Copenhagen Climate Council member Vestas, urges governments to invest heavily in the wind market. It sponsors CNN’s […]

Forget the little children. The little children coming to the White House don’t vote, can’t give money and really, after you’ve had one kiddie photo-op you’ve had them all, so they can’t make you even look that great. President Barack Obama dissed a bunch of crying Kindergartners: Paty Stine said the White House staff should […]

Who is the new “titular head” of the Republican party? Rush Limbaugh announced this week that he was stepping down as the “titular head” of the Republican Party. He passed the torch to General Colin Powell. The passing of the titular torch was symbolic. Whereas the old titular head is a conservative talk show host […]

How’s that saying go, if Democrats didn’t have double standards, they wouldn’t have any standards at all? Or, the other one, do as I say, not as I do On the Spot (CNSNews.com) – Sen. Debbie Stabenow (D-Mich.) supports government efforts to cap U.S. carbon emissions in the cause of controlling global warming. “I think […]
