Paul Ryan Explains Conservative Economic Theory To Ezra Klein

Posted on July 30, 2010July 30, 2010 by John Hawkins

When I saw that Paul Ryan was doing an interview with far left-winger Ezra Klein at the WAPO, I wasn’t wild about the idea because Klein is a diehard partisan. However, I think Ryan did an excellent job of explaining conservative ideas about the economy in the interview. Ezra Klein: It’s clear now that there’ll […]

This Week In Quotes: July 23 – July 29

Posted on July 30, 2010 by John Hawkins

That’s why the “Political Class” — the Gee Aren’t I Terribly Enlightened? crowd — opposes (building a fence). They talk about that a lot — the symbolism of the thing. How about discussing the reality of it? It’s a fence. Its real purpose — in real-world, real-time reality — is to halt people from crossing […]

The CIA Should Kill Julian Assange

Posted on July 29, 2010October 27, 2010 by John Hawkins

Julian Assange is the founder of Wikileaks and as you have probably heard, he’s publicly posting a large number of uncensored intelligence documents he’s received. Happily, most of them haven’t done a lot of damage. However, the same can’t be said for the information he’s released about Afghan informants: THE Australian founder of WikiLeaks has […]

Posted on July 29, 2010December 30, 2012 by John Hawkins

One of the inspirations for the very popular 20 hottest conservative women in the media articles I’ve run for the last couple of years was the Hill’s “50 Most Beautiful People” list. Well The Hill’s newest list is out and as always, I have some complaints about their list: The order’s not that great & […]

Chart: Proof America Is A Center-Right Nation

Posted on July 28, 2010December 30, 2012 by John Hawkins

Paul Waldman over at the left-wing American Prospect noted a handy-dandy new chart from Pew Research and realized he was more of an extremist than he’d thought, As a progressive, I tend to think the Republican Party is much more ideologically extreme than the Democratic Party. There are many reasons, some of which may be […]

The Chevy Volt & Nissan Leaf: Proof That A Sucker’s Born Every Minute

Posted on July 28, 2010 by John Hawkins

There’s a very basic rule for new technology: it should be better than the old technology that it’s replacing. Electric cars have yet to meet that test. Replacing a gas powered car with the best electric cars on the market, the Chevy Volt and the Nissan Leaf, would be like replacing your MP3 player with […]

Tom Tancredo Is Blowing It For Conservatives In Colorado

Posted on July 27, 2010July 27, 2010 by John Hawkins

Despite the fact that he has a disturbing tendency to go over-the-top and say dumb things on occasion, I have a great deal of respect for Tom Tancredo. Had Tanc not picked up the banner and led the charge on illegals early in the game, it’s entirely possible that comprehensive immigration reform would be the […]

Cries Of Racism Are Now Mostly About Politics, Not Race.

Posted on July 27, 2010September 19, 2010 by John Hawkins

If the right forces us all to either defend Wright or tear him down, no matter what we choose, we lose the game they’ve put upon us. Instead, take one of them – Fred Barnes, Karl Rove, who cares – and call them racists. — Spencer Ackerman Tainting the tea party movement with the charge […]

Seven Deceptive Mainstream Media Techniques

Posted on July 27, 2010September 19, 2010 by John Hawkins

Just a few decades ago journalism in this country was actually about reporting the facts. Yes, journalists may have leaned to the Left, but at least reporters made an effort to be fair. Today, journalists are more interested in “making a difference” than in any antiquated standards and they play by PRAVDA rules. Every news […]

Posted on July 26, 2010July 26, 2010 by John Hawkins

A Glimpse Of America’s Future Health Care In Britain It’s not so much that Barack Obama’s promises come with expiration dates as it is that he’ll say anything to get his way without the slightest care about whether what he’s saying is true or not. Never was this more true than when it came to […]

Posted on July 26, 2010July 26, 2010 by John Hawkins

The Happiness Hypothesis: Finding Modern Truth in Ancient Wisdom is an excellent book and let’s face it: Who doesn’t want to be happy? So, I thought I’d put together a selection of some of the best quotes from the book. Enjoy! (On how your mind works) In sum, the rider is an advisor or servant; […]

Liberal Blockheads At Netroots Nation

Posted on July 23, 2010July 23, 2010 by John Hawkins

It’s fair to say that some conservatives expect too much out of Republicans from liberal states or districts, but only the complete blockheads would go this far, Markos Moulitsas, founder of the Daily Kos blog and an organizer of the first such annual conference five years ago, said he and his followers are disinclined to […]

One of the hottest books in America right now is Laura Ingraham’s The Obama Diaries.

This Week In Quotes: July 16 – July 21

Posted on July 23, 2010July 23, 2010 by John Hawkins

Tainting the tea party movement with the charge of racism is proving to be an effective strategy for Democrats. There is no evidence that tea party adherents are any more racist than other Republicans, and indeed many other Americans. But getting them to spend their time purging their ranks and having candidates distance themselves should […]

Not So Wild About A Tea Party Caucus

Posted on July 22, 2010July 22, 2010 by John Hawkins

I’ve long been a fan of Michele Bachmann. She’s conservative, fearless, pays attention to the grassroots, and I really believe her heart’s in the right place. That being said, I have to respectfully disagree with her decision to create a Tea Party Caucus in the House, Congress has strayed from the fundamental principles of the […]

The Ultimate Irony: A Despicable Race Hustler Like Shirley Sherrod Is Being Hailed As A Racial Role Model

Posted on July 22, 2010July 22, 2010 by John Hawkins

It’s fascinating to see Shirley Sherrod being lionized as some sort of hero because after she racially discriminated against a white farmer, she had a change of heart. Would any conservative be treated as a hero for doing the same thing or would the Left sneer and refuse to believe that she changed her stripes? […]

Exclusive To RWN: The GOP House Leadership Speaks Out On Defunding And Repealing Health Care Reform

Posted on July 22, 2010 by John Hawkins

The centerpiece of Barack’s Obama first two years in office has been the health care reform that the Democratic Party shoved through Congress over the objections of the Republican Party and the American people. Not only was the legislation unpopular when it was passed, polls have consistently shown that the American people want to see […]

The Crazed Sex Poodle Has Apparently Tried To Hump More Than One Masseuse’s Leg

Posted on July 21, 2010July 21, 2010 by John Hawkins

Back when the “Al Gore, Giggling Crazed Sex Poodle” massage that almost turned into a sexual assault scandal broke, there were some questions about whether the masseuse was telling the truth. Granted, her story sounded plausible — and creepy. But let’s face it: In this 15 minutes of fame, reality show, lawsuit lottery culture, you […]

Don’t Shed Any Tears For Shirley Sherrod

Posted on July 21, 2010July 21, 2010 by John Hawkins

For those of you unfamiliar with the story, let’s take it from the beginning. The NAACP decided to smear the Tea Party as racists. Like many Americans, Andrew Breitbart didn’t take kindly to something that has become a daily ritual during the Obama Administration — conservatives being falsely denounced as racists. However, unlike most other […]

20 Must Add Conservatives On Twitter

Posted on July 21, 2010July 21, 2010 by John Hawkins

The new hawtness on Twitter, for conservatives at least, is suggesting the “must follow” people everyone should be following on Twitter. Among others, Craft and Matt Lewis have put out lists that have gotten some attention. So, as a conservative Twitter junky, I though it made sense for me to put together my own list […]

Nobody Has A “Right” To Charity

Posted on July 20, 2010July 20, 2010 by John Hawkins

Over at the Huffington Post, Kerry Kennedy and Monika Kalra Varma are making a rather bizarre argument about Haiti, The international community too often regards procurement and distribution of basic supplies as charity, but it is wrong. Access to food, water, shelter, education and healthcare are basic human rights enshrined in the Universal Declaration of […]

A Window Into The World Of The Mainstream Media: False Charges Of Racism & Burying Stories To Help Democrats

Posted on July 20, 2010July 20, 2010 by John Hawkins

There’s a reason talk radio, Fox, and the blogosphere have taken off in recent years: it’s because the mainstream media in this country is largely comprised of left-wing hacks who view their jobs, first and foremost, as promoting liberalism, not reporting the news. If you want yet more proof of that, look at this blockbuster […]
