Giving A New Meaning To Government Pork: Oh boy, don’t let the animal rights whackos in the US see this… “FARMERS (in Britain) throughout the country have 90 days to put a toy in every pigsty or face up to three months in jail. The new ruling from Brussels, which is to become law in […]

FDR’s Fireside Chat About Pre-Emptive Strikes: While I strongly disapprove of many of FDR’s domestic policies, I have nothing but the highest regard for the way he led America in WW2. Here are a few quotes from one of FDR’s “fireside chats” about the Nazis and their indiscriminate submarine warfare that I think are VERY […]

Saddam Hussein Takes His Love To Town By Ron Marr: Deep down Mindy Lou realized that Billy Bob was the scum of the Earth. She knew her cheatin’ husband hopped in his truck (which she had paid for) and took his love to town on every possible occasion. Over 12 years she had caught him […]

The State Of The Union Speech: I watched the State of the Union speech and here’s what struck me… — Did you catch Ted Kennedy snoozing? Hahahahah… — A great line to the people of Iraq, “Your enemy is not surrounding your country, your enemy is ruling your country.” — I was a little surprised […]

The Democratic Underground Thread Of The Day: If you want to see the left at it’s most delusional & paranoid, you have only to look at this thread on the Democratic Underground. Here’s the question that was asked… ArkDem: “Who is most evil..Bush family or Hussein?” Now let’s see what some of the posters on […]

Eight Great Underrated Blogs: As most of our regular readers know, I’ll make a list at the drop of a hat — especially if it involves linking other blogs. So with that in mind here are the 10 most underrated blogs on the net in no particular order… CrooooW Blog: I’m a big fan of […]

What Is Going To Appease The World?: I received an email today from someone named KuoYen Lo. It read… “I am a high school student, currently enrolled in a U.S. government class and I was wondering if there was any way that the inspectors could actually find enough evidence to appease the world? My take […]

Frank Advice for Universities By Frank J.: Duke Univeristy has invited invited Laura Whitehorn to speak on campus, originally billing her as a “political prisoner” even though she was in prison for the “political statement “of bombing the U.S. Capitol. And then the people who invited her acted so surprised at the controversy, because college […]

Does The Left Really Believe In The UN?: It’s no secret that I’m not a big fan of the UN. In fact, I’ll be the first one to tell you that I don’t think that there is anything unethical about ignoring the UN’s decisions . However, there are plenty of people on the left who’ll […]

The Mexican Fifth Column By Tom DeWeese: Illegal immigration is about much more than fighting terrorism. Illegal Mexicans are pouring across our borders and, as a result, American tax-paid services like education and healthcare are being pushed to the brink of collapse. Each new report of activities along our 2,000-mile border with Mexico appears to […]

Miscellaneous: A few things… – I’m adding a new form of advertising to RWN. If you’d like to have an 88×31 button in the support section for 1 MONTH, email me a 2kb or less button and put $10 in my account through the Paypal button. This is first come, first serve and I’m only […]

Three Strikes And You…Get A Letter?!??!?: I’ve been harping on Britain’s insane law enforcement policies a lot lately. They persecute people who defend their homes from criminals & they’ve stopped even investigating, “burglary, vandalism and assaults unless evidence pointing to the culprits is easily available.” All of that is bad enough, but this is just […]

The Way The War Is Viewed — Before And After: We’re getting very close to war and the voices of opposition are raising to a crescendo. France and Germany are thrusting their daggers into our back, the anti-war left is protesting, the UN inspectors are deliberately trying to put a good spin on Saddam’s non-disarmament, […]

Quote Of The Day: For those of you unfamiliar with Oriana Fallaci, she wrote a book that has been very popular in Europe called “The Rage and The Pride.” The book is in the words of the article I’m quoting from, “a passionate cry in which she accuses the West of being blind to the […]

Our Tax System — The Flatter The Better: I ran across an article by Gary Chapman in the Austin American-Statesman that I thought was worth commenting on. To begin with, Chapman tosses out some very dubious statistics about Bush’s newest tax cut that he doesn’t quote a source for. He also went to complain about […]

Rumsfeld Sorry for ‘Axis of Weasels’ Remark By Scott Ott: (2003-01-22) — U.S. Secretary Defense Donald Rumsfeld apologized today for referring to France and Germany as an “Axis of Weasels.” “I’m sorry about that Axis of Weasels remark,” said Mr. Rumsfeld. “I didn’t mean to dredge up the history France and Germany share of pathetic […]

100 Of The Most Popular Political Websites On The Net: I decided to update the “50 most popular political websites on the net” article. There are now a hundred websites listed and the article does a pretty decent job of listing the major political sites on the net with the exception of the newspapers and […]

An Interview With Phyllis Schlafly: I was honored that Phyllis Schlafly agreed to do an interview via email with RWN. Mrs. Schlafly has been a leader of the Conservative movement since way back in the sixties. She is the author and editor of 20 books, her syndicated column runs in a hundred newspapers, & her […]

Winning the Cultural War (1999) By Charlton Heston: Edward Perez sent me an email today suggesting that I add this speech to my “speech section” on RWN. After giving it a read over, I thought this speech by Charlton Heston was worthy of inclusion. Read and enjoy…

Fisking The Germans And The French In Eight Words Or Less: Ahem…here’s the link…let’s give it a go… “GERMANY will use its power as incoming president of the UN Security Council to try to head off war with Iraq by asking the chief weapons inspectors to report twice in three weeks, The Times has learnt.” […]

Doublespeak From Hillary? No Way!: I generally don’t like to compare someone to Hitler, bring up McCarthy, or invoke Orwell because the left has beaten all these comparisons into the ground. You know what I mean — there are some Dems who use “Nazi” as a synonym for Republican, who cry “McCarthyism” every time they’re […]

Don Rumsfeld’s Faux Pas: Yesterday, Rummy apologized for a remark he made on Jan 7th while disparaging Charles Rangel’s lame draft proposal after the American Legion and the Vietnam Veterans of America (among others) complained. Here’s what Rumsfeld had to say… “If you think back to when we had the draft, people were brought in […]

Robert Fisk On Pro-Government Media Bias: I was reading Robert Fisk’s latest column and of course, since it is a Fisk column, there were a half-dozen things I could have beaten Fisk worse than an Afghan refugee over. However, let’s focus on one particular claim that Fisk makes that has been echoed in other places […]

Frank Advice for the State of the Union Address By Frank J: Bush has been working on his first draft of his State of the Union address, and, since there is still about a week before he delivers it, I thought I’d give him my advice. First thing’s first, remember, it’s not the content so […]

Ready To Forget About The War On Terrorism?: There are plenty of people out there who are ready to pretend that the ‘War on Terrorism’ is essentially over. It’s been a long time since Al-Qaeda has hit the US so they don’t see them as a threat anymore. The global terrorist network? The terrorists and […]

50 Of The Most Popular Political Websites On The Net: Over the last few months here at RWN, my favorite blogs have been ranked, I’ve had other people rank their favorite blogs, and I’ve regularly listed the web pages that send me the most traffic. Today, I thought it might be interesting to see which […]
