Imagine having this nightmare staring back at you from your own arm every day. Of course, it could be worse. Hat tip to my buddy Em Zanotti from the American Princess, who should be doing her first regular guest posts on RWN starting today.

Over at the Daily Kos one of the diarists, “One Citizen,” actually put this photoshop together, Wow. Setting aside the fact that the Klan was essentially an arm of the Democratic Party for most of its existence, that the only former Klan member in Congress is a Democrat, and that even today, the socialistic, virulently […]

I have happily planted booming kicks into Ted Kennedy’s ribs 100 times, but I was still genuinely sorry to hear that he has brain cancer. That’s a tough diagnosis for anyone to have to deal with and even though Ted Kennedy and I will never see eye to eye on the issues, I wish him, […]

On Friday of last week, I got a great question that I just didn’t quite have time to get around to answering. Here it is, Mr. Hawkins, Have you seen Iron Man yet? If not, I highly recommend doing so; its awesome. Anyway, my question: What are your top ten (in order) favorite superhero movies? […]

Yesterday, I did my best to help out the Obama campaign by suggesting a wonderful new bumper sticker. Today, because I am still in a generous — dare I say it, bipartisan — mood, I have decided to create a few more bumper stickers for O-Bo-Bo. PS: Suggest some of your favorite ideas and if […]

Over at Hollywood Tuna, one of the gossip blogs I regularly read for Conservative Grapevine each day, they had a new Britney Spears bikini spread up (here’s a representative pic)… Now, here’s an excerpt from the commentary that went up with the spread, Here’s Britney Spears showing off her beach body in a bikini in […]

From the Washington Times, “Osama bin Laden must be chuckling in his safe house,” wrote Shireen Burki in the Christian Science Monitor yesterday. “The 2008 campaign could very well give Al Qaeda the ultimate propaganda tool: President Barack Hussein Obama, Muslim apostate. The fact that Sen. Obama — son of a Muslim father — insists […]

It’s pretty universally well known that the Republicans are in huge trouble as they’ve lost a number of special elections that I don’t know much about but all the smart people say are very important. At least I know I don’t care much more Republicans anymore; they lately just seem like a less mincing version […]

In honor of Tom Harkin’s latest moronic comments about John McCain not being a good candidate for President because he spent too much time in the military, I present to you, “Liberals Vs.

This seems like a rather common-sensical point from W. doesn’t it? “Those who are screaming the loudest for increased production from Saudi Arabia are the very same people who are fighting the fiercest against domestic exploration, against the development of nuclear power and against expanding refining capacity.” The honest truth is that the global warming […]

The website of the day is No Oil For Pacifists.

Jaz McKay sent me such a great email about the type of guns that newbie shooters should use that I asked him to allow me to post it on RWN. After retooling the email just a bit, Jaz gave me the go-ahead. Enjoy! Recently John was writing about handguns for first timers. As an official, […]

Question: “Is there any legitimacy to McCain’s belief that “cap and trade” is a market based solution to global warming?” — RWNReader2 Answer: First of all, setting aside the fact that there has been very little global warming in the last century, that there is no global warming occurring right now, that there probably will […]

Question: “Given the recent increase in food prices, is this a good time to end farm subsidies in the US?” — President_Friedman Answer: Any time would be a good time to end farm subsidies and tariffs on imported food.

Question: “Your post about Novak and Jimmy Carter made me think of this. It seems to be that “Bush Lied” has become so commonly used that it is assumed to be true by most people. Could you provide a list of all the people who would have also been lying if Bush did, in fact, […]

Yesterday, I had a poll up that read, Do you think John McCain’s political views could best be described as those of a relatively typical… Here are the results: Conservative Republican? 94: 11% Moderate Democrat? 741 responses: 89% If you’re wondering why conservative Republicans are a bit depressed going into 2008, I think that has […]
