Double Standard

Posted on March 11, 2012March 11, 2012 by Morgan Freeberg

The trouble with the Fluke matter is, we need to get off it and on to other things that are far more important; and, at the same time, we don’t. On the one hand, the matter is settled. President Obama has been so hugely embarrassed by the whole contraception-mandate thing that His pals on Capitol […]

Posted on March 11, 2012 by William Teach

Posted on March 11, 2012May 7, 2012 by John Hawkins

“(I)’ve gotten a lot of traction out of my seemingly banal observation that it is highly improbable that the United States will ever become a Nazi-like or otherwise totalitarian nation. For some reason, this is the sort of obvious statement which strikes lots of folks as shocking or controversial, even though it’s only slightly less […]

Santorum, the Exorcist Candidate

Posted on March 11, 2012March 11, 2012 by Debra Saunders

Rick Santorum has become the alternative to Mitt Romney because the former U.S. senator from Pennsylvania comes across as, to use his words, “the conviction conservative” in the GOP presidential primary. While Romney burned through millions in big-donor contributions, Santorum ran a bare-bones campaign. In December, The New York Times ran a graphic on the […]

Coming soon: graphic pictures of cancer patients on every can of Coke

Posted on March 10, 2012 by TrogloPundit

At least, California would probably like to force Coke and Pepsi to put ugly, graphic, gross pictures of severely ill people on every can. But since they can’t: Coca-Cola Co. and PepsiCo Inc. are changing the way they make the caramel coloring used in their sodas as a result of a California law that mandates […]

Downright unsettlin’, higher education edition:

Posted on March 10, 2012 by TrogloPundit

Instapundit had this quote the other day, from the Chronicle of Higher Education’s Alex Tabarrok: In 2009 the United States graduated 89,140 students in the visual and performing arts, more than in computer science, math, and chemical engineering combined and more than double the number of visual-and-performing-arts graduates in 1985. On its face, that’s downright […]

Americans with Disabilities Act Necessity: Conservative, White, Male Bloggers NEED a Federal Subsidy

Posted on March 10, 2012 by Warner Todd Huston

OK, you people, I am sick and tied of this. The Americans with Disabilities Act is NOT being fairly applied. That’s right. You read that headline correctly. Conservative, white, male bloggers NEED a hand from Washington. In fact, I’d say we have a right to it. We are being discriminated against even from those on […]

RWN’s Favorite Quotes From Joe Scarborough’s ‘Rome Wasn’t Burnt In A Day’

Posted on March 10, 2012May 6, 2012 by John Hawkins

“(B)ecause Republicans and Democrats conspire to gerrymander one another’s districts so incumbents are rarely challenged at the polls, the turnover rate on Capitol Hill is lower than in the old Soviet Politboro. This means reckless politicians rarely have to pay the price for their misdeeds.” — P. 6 “Party leaders, like the mob, give no […]

The Best Quotes From Thomas Sowell’s ‘The Vision Of The Anointed’

Posted on March 10, 2012May 7, 2012 by John Hawkins

*** Note that Thomas Sowell uses the term ‘anointed’ to refer to liberals, ‘benighted’ or ‘tragic’ for conservatives, and the term ‘vision’ represents their philosophy. So the ‘vision of the anointed’ is the way liberals view the world. *** “This (liberal) vision so permeates the media and academia, and has made such major inroads into […]

I’ve Made Up My Mind About Apologies

Posted on March 10, 2012March 10, 2012 by Morgan Freeberg

And what I’ve decided is, I don’t like ’em. I’ll go further: I can’t stand them. I f*cking hate ’em. Okay I’ll make one single exception to that: If it’s like when James Caan snapped at Robert Duvall in The Godfather, and then immediately said, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean that — if it’s a […]

Buerkle any favors when they […]

The Best Victor Davis Hanson Quotes Of 2004

Posted on March 9, 2012May 6, 2012 by John Hawkins

ality will earn us the parlor disdain of the French and Germans. The terrorists are assured that the Western press is obsessed with Abu Ghraib, but not at all with Saddam’s necropolis or their own slaughter of innocents. They suspect that those who endured Omaha and Utah or scaled Suribachi are long sleeping in their […]

In case you missed it, the WP’s Alexandra Petri wrote on the 7th Advertisers learned something about Rush Limbaugh’s demographic this week. “Here we thought lots of pleasant, upstanding people were listening to and enjoying the rational things Rush had to say,” dozens of companies said. “Apparently not.” It turns out that people who really, […]

White House Quietly Works To Shape Debate On ObamaCare

Posted on March 9, 2012 by William Teach

By the way, have you noticed that many people from Obama’s past live in abject poverty? His half brother lives in a shack in Kenya, his aunt and uncle live on the dole in Boston illegally.

The Left’s War on Christianity

Posted on March 9, 2012June 10, 2012 by John Hawkins

My analysis is that most faith based systems depend upon an absolute moral order. The declaration of things as absolutely evil or absolutely good, as sin or virtue, puts liberalism into a horrible position because it’s founded on no judgment on anything. As a result, any faith that is seriously practiced or understood is a […]

They’re horrified to discover that the German scientists in charge of the program see the astronauts as nothing more than living props. There is no window, the scientists explain. […]

Big Lies on Big Oil

Posted on March 9, 2012March 8, 2012 by David Limbaugh

How much truth is there in President Obama’s latest favorite mantra that we consume a disproportionate share of the world’s oil, especially considering how little of the world’s reserves we have?

GCB: Good Christians Bashed

Posted on March 9, 2012March 9, 2012 by Brent Bozell

At the same time Washington was ablaze with outrage at the idea that Rush Limbaugh insulted a woman as a “slut,” ABC premiered a new Sunday night show called “GCB” — shortened from “Good Christian Bitches.” Limbaugh apologized. ABC displays no such contrition. They insulted only those Christians. In the midst of this trashy debut, […]
