Say, About That Wonderful, Awesome, Monumental, Going Broke Canadian Health Systerm

Posted on by William Teach

Wait, what was that last part? Pressured by an aging population and the need to rein in budget deficits, Canada’s provinces are taking tough measures to curb healthcare costs, a trend that could erode the principles of the popular state-funded system. Ontario, Canada’s most populous province, kicked off a fierce battle with drug companies and […]

The 20 Hottest Conservative Women In The New Media (2010 Edition) One of the most popular articles at RWN last year was, The 15 Hottest Conservative Women In The New Media. So, when you have a big hit, what could make more sense than : doing a sequel? This time around, we had a new distinguished […]

 

Five Ways to Keep America From Turning Into Greece

Posted on by John Hawkins

“The trouble with socialism is that eventually you run out of other people’s money.” — Margaret Thatcher Guess what, folks? “Eventually” is here for Greece and it may soon be for Ireland, Portugal, Spain, and Italy as well. So, when does “eventually” come for us? Last week, congressman Mike Pence told me that unless something […]

 

NBC12 in Phoenix Broadcasts Anti-SB 1070 Attacks on Republicans as Nazis

Posted on by Donald Douglas

This is really distasteful, almost sickening actually. Local NBC12 coverage of the Phoenix reconquista march on Saturday. Watch the full video at Newsbusters. Especially loathsome is the comments toward the end of the clip, where reporter Rachel Stockman indicates that the reconquistas were “concerned” that some SB 1070 supporters “were going to show up here […]

 

Californians Somehow Split On Arizona Law

Posted on by William Teach

Somehow, this is a split (well, I see Donald Douglas did the same story earlier. My Bad!) California voters are closely divided over the crackdown on illegal immigration in Arizona, with sharp splits along lines of ethnicity and age, according to a new Los Angeles Times/USC poll. Overall, 50% of registered voters surveyed said they […]

 

Bill Maher: “Real” Black Men Are Thugs

Posted on by John Hawkins

Despite portraying themselves as champions of minorities, liberal disdain for black Americans continually seeps through. Why do liberals back Affirmative Action? Because they believe black Americans are too stupid and inferior to compete with white Americans without help. Why did liberals love referring to Bill Clinton as “the first black President?” Because liberals look at […]

 

The Cambodian “Jungle Woman:” One Of The Greatest News Stories Of All Time

Posted on by John Hawkins

There’s a lot of big news breaking out there. The Israeli Commando Raid on the Flotilla. The BP Oil Spill is still going on. And Barack Obama is undoubtedly trying:  to:  decide:  which part of:  the:  American dream he wants to systematically destroy next. But sometimes, a story is just so full awesome that you’ve […]

 

Jihadis Killed in Clash With IDF Near Gaza

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

I hate to interrupt our Memorial Day observations, but this news story is too immediate to ignore. The Old Media is already misreporting the bloody incident off the Gaza coast between a flotilla of Muslim “peace activists” and the Israeli Defense Force. They are, of course, making Israel out to be the bad guys and […]

 

Happy Memorial Day, 2010: Remembering HOW They Serve

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

It is very, very easy to forget that the members of our American military even exist. Unlike other peoples we don’t live in a nation where the members of our military are skulking around our streets, automatic weapons in hand, glaring menacingly at each citizen and they pass by during their daily activities. We don’t […]

Comparison: Liberal Reaction Vs. Conservative Reaction To The Israel/Flotilla Story

Posted on by John Hawkins

Honestly, I don’t find the Palestinian people to be the least bit sympathetic. They’re backwards, genocidal, hyper-violent, sad sack Nazi wannabes led by terrorists who would happily murder every Jew on the planet if they could get away with it. Then there are the Israelis. They’re a tiny Western:  democracy surrounded by backwards savages who […]

 

How To Prevent A “Dust Bowl” Africa

Posted on by Dennis Avery

CHURCHVILLE, VA – People and wild species are at more risk in Africa than on any other continent. Huge numbers of people are trying to subsist on hunting scarce animals and unsustainable slash-and-burn farming. If this continues it will undoubtedly trigger a Dust Bowl like that of the American Midwest in the 1930s along with […]

 

Californians Split on Arizona’s SB 1070? Well, No Actually

Posted on by Donald Douglas

Well, here comes this morning’s Los Angeles Times to confirm — once again — the main point I raised in my coverage of this weekend’s reconquista protest in Phoenix. See, the Times‘ poll, “Californians Split on Arizona’s Illegal Immigration Crackdown“: California voters are closely divided over the crackdown on illegal immigration in Arizona, with sharp […]

 

Frank Rich v. Peggy Noonan – compare and contrast “competent”

Posted on by McQ

Frank Rich has never seen an act by President Obama of which he didn’t approve or, if approval wasn’t really credibly possible, anything for which he couldn’t find an excuse. The oil spill is no exception: Whatever Obama’s failings, he is infinitely more competent at coping with catastrophe than his predecessor. President Bush’s top disaster […]

 

Joe McGinniss Like a Wife Beater Blaming the Wife

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Left-wing, hack writer Joe McGinniss is showing signs of instability. Like a wife beater, he’s now blaming Sarah Palin for being alarmed and upset that he — well known as her literary stalker — has suddenly appeared as her new next door neighbor. McGinnis has, wife-beater-like, been quoted by the Washington Post that HE is […]

 

Bubba Playing the Anti-Union Card?

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

Could it be? Could Bill Clinton be supporting a candidate because that candidate is not the union choice? Well, apparently Hell hath frozen over because your favorite lip-biting president and mine… OK, not our favorite, but you know… appeared at a fund raising event for Arkansas Senator Blanche Lincoln and said he supports her because […]

 

Obama Can’t Find Time For Arizona Gov. Brewer

Posted on by William Teach

But he sure can find time for all those fun perks of the job he campaigned for President Obama has turned down Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer’s request to meet while she’s in Washington next week as tensions mount between his administration and Arizona over the state’s new law cracking down on illegal immigrants. Brewer will […]

 

Fail: Obama Admin Now Even Failing at Chicago Style Politics

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

As further proof that whatever President Obama touches turns into a huge failure, even the administration’s recent attempts at Chicago style politics have failed miserably. They are so inept, partially due to unmitigated gall, that even the one thing in which the administration is well-versed, the Chicago Way, turns into another strike against them. You […]

 

But…if we cut doctor reimbursements, won’t fewer doctors be willing to do the work?

Posted on by TrogloPundit

And won’t that then lead to waiting lists, or even patients unable to find a doctor? Unable to get the medical care they need? I thought government-run health care was the solution! The Senate adjourned Thursday evening without voting to prevent a 21.3 percent cut to the payments doctors receive under Medicare. The payment is […]

 

Why are some Lefties so worried about an Obama impeachment?

Posted on by TrogloPundit

Why is Steve Benen so worried about an Obama impeachment? What does he think Obama has done? He writes: It’s tempting to think of impeachment as a far-fetched, silly idea, barring actual impeachable offenses. But the more I think about it, the more I remember this is the House Republican caucus we’re dealing with. They’re […]

D’JEver Notice? LVII

Posted on by Morgan Freeberg

Former Vice Presidential candidate Sarah Palin received a whole lot of criticism this week for the terrible crime she committed of being-spied-on. My d’jever-notice-moment comes from reading the late, but now lengthy, history of Palin criticism. Ever notice that with ninety-nine percent of it, if you take out all the occurrences of “Sarah Palin” and […]

 

Michigan To License Journalists?

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

This is the face of tyranny. A Michigan State Senator has introduced an Orwellian bill that would provide for the licensing of journalists. There is no doubt that this thing is aimed squarely at delegitimizing the New Media, silencing bloggers, and creating a protected class of state approved “journalists.” State Senator Bruce Patterson is the […]
