I have no problem with boycotts, letter writing campaigns, or businesses like Clear Channel simply deciding to drop radio hosts because they don’t fit the image they company wants to put forth, but I find this sort of thing to be of concern… “The House Energy and Commerce Committee voted 49-1 to send a tough […]

This is an excerpt from post I made back on Feb 27 entitled “Why States Rights Don’t Currently Matter When It Comes To Gay Marriage“… “Because I believe that protecting marriage is so absolutely essential to the continued success of our country, I support a Constitutional Amendment that defines marriage as being between a man […]

The Bush-Cheney 04 team have unveiled their new campaign platform, including a series of television, radio, magazine and newspaper ads, which will focus on the slogans, “George W. Bush: Compared to John Kerry, he’s a man of the people!” and “George W. Bush: Compared to John Kerry, he’s just like you!” The ads will feature […]

As a general rule of thumb, you should start to get VERY suspicious when the mainstream media runs “anecdotal stories”. I say that because you can find a handful of people who believe JUST ABOUT ANYTHING. That means it’s very easy to decide what sort of story you want write, get a few juicy quotes, […]

After having some technical problems yesterday, RWN, like Douglas MacArthur, has RETURNED! The page is back up and running like John Kerry after a question about his Vietnam war protestor days and it is nice to be back…

With John Edwards expected to announce his withdrawal from the presidential race today, the contest for the Democrat nomination narrows to two men — Sen. John Forbes Kerry, D-MA, and Sen. John Forbes Kerry, D-MA. “I think we’re going to see them go at it hammer and tong until the convention,” said Terry McAuliffe, chairman […]

Today, I ran across a despicable post over at Gut Rumbles. It’s the sort of racist trash I’d expect to be bringing to you from a KKK forum when I was doing an edition of ACPOTI. Let me give you a few samples from this post about a fight at a basketball game…. “I saw […]

I have to tell you, I am totally unimpressed with George Bush’s new campaign ads. They’re nothing but generalized, fluff. Don’t just take my word for it — go look at the commercials. In the first one, “Lead”, George Bush says he knows “exactly where he wants to lead this country”. Well, can you fill […]

An American tourist in London decides to skip his tour group and explore the city on his own. He wanders around, seeing the sights, and occasionally stopping at a quaint pub to soak up the local culture, chat with the lads, and have a pint of Guinness. After awhile, he finds himself in a very […]

I’m a HUGE fan of “three strikes and you’re out” legislation because it stops career criminals from walking in and out of our revolving door court system and keeps them behind bars where they belong. But of course, no matter how successful a policy is, there are always people who want to change it…. “It’s […]

I’ve heard a lot of people say this “Passion of the Christ” necklace looks tacky, but it’s growing on me. I think I’m going to pick one of these up… It’s like wearing a cross — only edgier! On the other hand, is it not weird to be buying “The Passion of the Christ” merchandise? […]

— Frank J. from IMAO interviewed G. Gordon Liddy and it produced one of the funniest exchanges I’ve ever seen in an interview… Frank: Have you ever considered a soul patch instead? Liddy: I’m sorry; considered what? Frank: A soul patch. Liddy: I don’t know what you’re talking about. Frank: It’s a little bit of […]

Paris – After having just recently banned the headscarf from being worn in public schools, the government of France has decided to ban the wearing of berets as well. “Like the headscarf, the beret is a symbol of intolerance, fanaticism and extremely rank body odor,” said M. Jean-Pierre Lapin, the French Minister for Culture, Haughtiness […]

You’ve just gotta read these quotes from Senator Flip flop about Haiti… “Kerry (D-Mass.) said he would have sent troops to Haiti even without international support to quell the revolt against President Jean-Bertrand Aristide. “President Kerry would never have allowed that to get where it is,” Kerry said, though he added he’s not “a big […]

Washington, DC — Personal liability lawyer and Democrat presidential candidate John Edwards announced today that he is bringing a lawsuit against everyone who doesn’t vote for him during this election cycle. In his lawsuit filed just two hours ago in the Federal District Court of Northern Virginia, Edwards states that American citizens who vote for […]

Long ago, when I first heard about Mel Gibson’s movie — then simply called “The Passion” — I can’t say that I was all that interested in seeing it. I mean a movie about Jesus that was in Aramaic & Latin? At the time I was hearing that the film wasn’t even going to have […]

Folks, if you enjoy reading RWN, how about checking out a few of our advertisers? They’re for the most part conservatives trying to get message out or capitalists trying to make their business work and they’re worthy of your support. So worthy, that I’m sure you’d at least be willing to check out a few […]

Los Angeles, CA – A local man, arrested Sunday on suspicion of a carjacking that started in the South Central section of Los Angeles and ended in Pasadena, claims that he has never even played “Grand Theft Auto: Vice City.” The suspect, 22-year-old Ruben Alejandro, allegedly pulled the owner from the vehicle at gunpoint before […]

When I posted the results of the Right-Of-Center Bloggers Select The Dinner Guests From Hell poll, I neglected to post my own selections so I decided to do it now. You cannot imagine how much I’d dislike having to sit down and talk to any of these people for a few hours… Rosanne Barr Pat […]

It has been snowing here in Charlotte now for roughly 36 hours straight. Because of this lame blizzard….stop laughing you Northerners, it’s like a blizzard to us…I had to put off going on vacation this week-end. On the other hand, even though the snow is almost up to Patton’s chin, he has a blast when […]

One thing you’ll often hear from advocates of gay marriage and even utopian conservatives is that we should let the states make the decision about gay marriages, not the Federal government. I’m not surprised to hear some conservatives make that argument, but it is a rather extraordinary argument to hear from lefties who over the […]

“FASHION CAN BE DEADLY: According to Reuters this week, over 12,000 people were taken to hospital in 2002 after slipping over on ‘fashionable wood floors’, four times as many as in 1998. (No figures are available for the number of people injured by unfashionable wood floors). It is clear that terrorist operatives have infiltrated fashionable […]

Near the end of his latest column (which I’d highly recommend that you read), Larry Kudlow notes the following, “Modern Democrats love jobs but can’t stand the businesses that create them. They also claim to want prosperity, but don’t want anyone to get rich should prosperity come about.” That brings a pertinent question to mind. […]

In Sacramento, it’s apparently never too early for the political correctness fanatics to start indoctrinating the kids… “The parents of a 10-year-old boy suspended from a public school for sexual harassment are shocked and angry that a playground outburst by their son has been given such a distressing and politically charged label. Insisting that the […]

Canada always seemed to be too inconsequential to be an enemy, but I sent my crack research staff to find out what they can about Canada to see for sure if our neighbor to the north can be trusted. FUN FACTS ABOUT CANADA * Canada was originally populated by peoples loyal to Britain and dumb […]

Margaret Thatcher once wrote, “Whether it is in the United States or in mainland Europe, written constitutions have one great weakness. That is that they contain the potential to have judges take decisions which should properly be made by Democratically elected politicians.” Today, that “great weakness” is being exploited by gay advocates and judicial activists […]

Since I touched on how the left treats minorities who dare to stray from the liberal line in my last post, I thought it might be a good time to show you this cartoon that I ran across a while back at the The Black Commentator… See Condi USED to be black. But the moment […]

This sort of thing is sadly all too common… “U.S. Rep. Corrine Brown verbally attacked a top Bush administration official during a briefing on the Haiti crisis Wednesday, calling the President’s policy on the beleaguered nation “racist” and his representatives “a bunch of white men.” Her outburst was directed at Assistant Secretary of State Roger […]
