Predicting How The Soviet Union Would Fall Fifty Years In Advance

Posted on by John Hawkins

Eric Hoffer is one of my favorite philosophers and students of human nature. Not only was he ahead of his time, he was ahead of our time when it came to understanding certain facets of human nature.

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Naturally, in Vermont, it is the religious […]

6 Reasons Conservatives Should Embrace Identity Politics

Posted on by John Hawkins

One of the great ironies of American politics is that the least bigoted group of people in the country, conservatives, are continually accused of being hatemongers by the most prejudiced and race-obsessed people in our nation. No matter how often conservatives advocate race-neutral policies, condemn racism, or prove we’re not racists, we’re still smeared for […]

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Roger Ebert is nothing if he isn’t a knee-jerk leftist, absolutely without a single original political or cultural thought in his head and his latest meandering post on the Sun-Times hosted Roger Ebert’s Journal is a perfect example. His piece is titled “Ten things I know about the mosque” but it doesn’t seem like there […]

Why Right Wing News Is Sponsoring Homocon

Posted on by John Hawkins

Last week, after the announcement that RWN is sponsoring Homocon, people started asking me why RWN chose to promote that event.
