An Anti-AIDS Ad Or A Pro-Nazi Ad? This is one of the most unintentionally funny advertisements that I’ve ever seen. It’s supposed to be some sort of anti-Aids “You’re worse than Hitler if you don’t use a condom” thing, but that’s not the message I get out of it: There are HIV/Aids charities protesting this […]

There has been an inordinate amount of concern over a speech Barack Obama intends to make to school children across the nation next week. Talk radio and some blogs are freaking out. In some quarters, there are even calls to keep children home from school on the day of Obama’s speech. This is difficult for […]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. Tea parties do little good if all the people do is protest. They must at some point put down the protest signs and pick up campaign signs. A “buycott” of Whole Foods may make you feel involved, but you aren’t really involved until you’re making politicians […]

Meg Whitman didn’t even register as a Republican until 2007. Now, you’ve got to wonder: Is she running for governor of California on the Republican or Democratic ticket? What does it say about her that she has such a high opinion of Van Jones?

Obama’s Communist Czar Van Jones apparently believes George Bush may have been behind the 9/11 attacks. From my friend Amanda Carpenter at the Washington Times, President Obama’s “green jobs czar” Van Jones has been targeted again and again by conservatives for his controversial views and now they’ll have another item to use as fodder. Mr. […]

The latest tactic in the left-wing smear campaign against Glenn Beck has been accusing him of rape. No, really… The attack on Glenn Beck continues by the internet crowd calling for a boycott of Beck’s advertisers. Can we now boycott the internet for making false accusations? The accusation that “Glenn Beck raped and murdered a […]

Honorable Mention) “But when the cloud of rhetoric has passed … when the roar of the crowd fades away … when the stadium lights go out, and those Styrofoam Greek columns are hauled back to some studio lot – what exactly is our opponent’s plan? What does he actually seek to accomplish, after he’s done […]

The Democrats have said a lot of stupid, grotesque, and offensive things in the last few months. However, nothing they’ve said so far compares to this slur from Barack Obama’s Organizing for America website: So, in the process of exploiting the people who died on 9/11 in the same way they did Ted Kennedy and […]

So, I’m having work done on the floor of my house and today one of the contractors was tearing up my bathroom floor. He found what I think of as a country boy’s Tutankhamen’s tomb. No gold, no artifacts, just a mummified possum that apparently crawled under my house and died at some point: The […]

As part of a never-ending series, I like to do short reviews of the books I read. Here are the latest 15 with the previously reviewed 135 below the fold. PS: If you’re wondering why there are very few low rated books on this list, it’s because I have a low tolerance for boredom and […]

It’s no secret that I am not a big fan of Ron Paul. Moreover, I don’t want to abolish the Federal Reserve, nor do I agree with his assertion that the Fed has been bad for the economy. The Fed was around all through the 20th century when the United States became an economic super […]

Never before in the history of our country have so many smug, stupid politicians been so absolutely convinced that they’re smarter than everyone else. Take John Cornyn, Chairman of the National Republican Senatorial Committee, for instance. Cornyn is one of these guys who insists that we need amnesty because we’ve got to bring more Hispanics […]

Sadly, for Republicans who have richly enjoyed watching Democrats getting a taste of their own medicine at town halls across the country, the August recess is winding down. Still, there are already so many memories. Humiliating, awful, scarring memories that are likely to still be haunting Democrats when November of 2010 rolls around. 7) Steny […]

Paul Krugman is a Nobel Prize Winning economist. That means, he should know better than to essentially say that the deficit doesn’t matter. In fact, I believe he does know better and is writing things he doesn’t really believe about economics for politics’ sake. But, Paul, Paul, Paul — such a tangled web we weave, […]

Obama has already seized control of the car companies and banks. He’s working on taking over health care. Next up, he wants to put the internet under his thumb: Internet companies and civil liberties groups were alarmed this spring when a U.S. Senate bill proposed handing the White House the power to disconnect private-sector computers […]

As a general rule, liberals in the mainstream media and blogosphere will, without the slightest hesitation, pass on stories about conservatives that they know are full of untruths. However, the Left has now gone a step beyond their habitual dishonesty of the last few years. They’re now faking hate crimes and lying about their identity […]

When a democracy reaches a point where the politicians cannot say no to the people, and both parties are competing for votes by promising even more spending or even lower taxes, or both, the experiment is about over. — Pat Buchanan The activities of the CIA in carrying out the policies of the Bush Administration […]

The press has been curiously uninterested in Afghanistan of late. Actually, perhaps it’s not so curious. The domestic agenda has moved to the forefront, the President they support seems uninterested in what’s happening, and bad news could complicate things for the Democrats. However, the situation in Afghanistan seems to be becoming increasingly perilous. Pakistan is […]

Remember the crass politicization of Paul Wellstone’s funeral? Well, the incredibly tone deaf Democrats appear poised to repeat it on a national scale with Ted Kennedy: Democrats are hoping that the memory of Sen. Ted Kennedy will revive the Democratic Party’s flagging push for health care reform. “You’ve heard of ‘win one for the Gipper’? […]

* Dems already want to abort babies. Now they want to pull the plug on Grandma, too. At least they’re now consistent. * Under Obamacare, the hope will be that you get a life saving operation. The change will be that it’s not available. * Why wouldn’t the GOP shut down the Senate if Dems […]

I like Mark Sanford. Despite his affair, I think he’s a probably more of a decent guy than the average politician (Of course, that’s a little like calling a woman the cleanest prostitute in the brothel). In any case, Sanford certainly doesn’t appear to be a serial philanderer like Bill Clinton or a Larry Craig […]

In an effort to placate the Left, Barack Obama’s administration is going to legally target the CIA for its interrogations of terrorists. This encourages America’s enemies and puts our country at greater risk because it sends a message to the CIA: Keep your head down or you might be targeted with a politically motivated prosecution […]

Ted Kennedy passed away last night and although I may not have agreed with Kennedy on much of anything, I was sorry to hear that he had died. I’m also sorry that Kennedy, like so many other people these days, is having his passing used as a mere political football. After someone shakes off their […]

Liberalism is like a venereal disease for our culture. It’s painful, irritating, and spreads its stupidity like wildfire. When the mentally ill start buying into liberal concepts like “If it feels good, do it,” “No one can judge you,” and “You’re really a victim,” the the results aren’t pretty: Imagine if Vincent Van Gogh — […]

Yesterday, as part of their attack on Obamacare, the RNC came out with a “Seniors’ Health Care Bill Of Rights” and the reception to it on the Right was a little chilly: PROTECT MEDICARE AND NOT CUT IT IN THE NAME OF HEALTH CARE REFORM: President Obama and Congressional Democrats are promoting a government-run health […]

Barrack Obama and his pals in the mainstream media are doing everything in their power to keep people from finding out the truth about the health care bills that are winding their way through Congress. Rather than engaging in an honest debate about the pluses and minuses of socialized medicine, they’ve abandoned all significant attempts […]

The nine most terrifying words in the English language are, ‘I’m from the government and I’m here to help.’ — Ronald Reagan Unlike liberals, conservatives tend to be reluctant to create new regulations. In part, that’s because we consider government to be a necessary evil that can often create as many problems as it solves […]
