Tort Reform Could Work By Stephen Bainbridge

Or so one infers from the WSJ($)’s report on tort reform in Ireland: “A new arbitration body in Dublin now reviews personal and employers’ liability claims — including motor, workplace, and other accidents but not medical malpractice cases — before they get to court.

The Democratic Underground Poll Of The Day: Who’s Really Responsible For 9/11?

This Democratic Underground poll was just too good to pass up… The Backlash Cometh: “Poll question: What is your opinion about who is responsible for executing 9/11?

RWN’s Favorite Family Guy Quotes

There’s nothing particularly conservative about the show “Family Guy;” in fact, the show is for the most part apolitical. However, it’s also outrageously funny and I thought you might enjoy some of my favorite quotes from the show. For those of you who have never seen “Family Guy,” the main characters are Peter (the Father), […]

 

Who Says There Is No Money In Blogging?

The number of advertisers working with blogads dropped off a lot after the election, but has really started to pick back up of late.

Hillary Is Very Beatable In 2008

While I think Dick Morris is a brilliant political operator and I was thrilled to get an interview with him, I can’t say that I agree with his thinking about Hillary Clinton’s prospects in 2008. Here’s what Dick had to say in the mini-interview I did with him… “I also do not think that any […]

 





Ann Coulter On The Inauguration

Nobody and I mean nobody, is as skull shatteringly brilliant at eviscerating liberals for their foibles, flaws, double standards as Ann Coulter. Just read her withering response to the latest crybaby liberal meme: that George Bush should be spending all that money on the inauguration… “The spokesman for Clinton’s 1993 Inaugural Committee said the inaugural […]

 

Hail To The Thief By Liberal Larry

I looked forward to participating in some anti-Bush protests downtown today, but I accidentally showered this morning and blew all my plans.

It looks like Spike Lee was right. Mr. Michael “Bowling for Columbine” Moore’s bodyguards do carry guns, “Filmmaker Michael Moore’s bodyguard was arrested for carrying an unlicensed weapon in New York’s JFK airport Wednesday night.” Here’s what I said about this back in August when it was just speculation based on something Spike Lee said […]
