“Death panels” got the Left all excited and Republicans cowering. D.C. sure loathes straight talk about anything. Sarah Palin does the Republicans a favor by defining the debate in philosophical terms while they stay mired in details: President Barack Obama fights for soft European socialism. Governor Sarah Palin fights for free-market American individualism. Many of […]

Dan Riehl has found a story in the non-anonymous blogger Jesse Griffin’s anti-Palin hatred and it is leading some strange places. All the puzzle pieces are not together yet, but a picture is starting to form and it is looking very suspect. You simply must read the whole post. It is investigative journalism at it’s […]

I got this from RightWingSparkle and it had me laughing. Some might not think this whole episode is very becoming…or funny. John at Powerline rightly notes that Hillary is “still angry after all these years”: The Clintons’ “two for the price of one” shtick was always pretty weird. Hillary Clinton’s one great career move was […]

You are so hungry for some red meat. I just know it. Well, my guest on this podcast, Caleb Howe of Redstate and The American Spectator, delivers the conservative perspective in a way only a former Marine can give it–straight shooting. We talk about the Astroturf hypocrisy and why Sarah Palin’s message on health care […]

Two separate problems are inherent with www.whitehouse.gov/realitycheck. One, it’s pure Obama propaganda. Two, it’s funded by you, the taxpayer. In my American Issues Project column today, I take on the reality of the six narratives the President puts forward via his proxies in videos there. I’ll share two “reality checks” here, but I hope you’ll […]

As a side note, Linda Douglass is one of many of the press’ true believers who joined the Obama White House. She wasn’t biased when she was a reporter. Nosirree!

James Joyner writes that he reads books less, now, and non-fiction at that, because he is reading all day in front of the computer: I read non-fiction almost exclusively and have gone from being a book person to an article person. The efficiency of getting 85 percent of the point in eight pages that I […]

You know what stinks? What stinks is that the Tea Party and other Right leaning activists are totally unfunded. They get no money….AT ALL. I’m just bitter because while the no-talents on the left get paid $16 an hour to show up, act bored, block doors, [New: Punch people] and wave a sign, activists on […]

Question: Name 10 books every young man should read before his 18th birthday. Posted by President_Friedman Here’s the deal. There are so many books that could be read. I decided to include children’s books and kinda “grow up” through them. The Bible should be read to a child, there are great childrens’ versions, from the […]

The Left, exasperated by being thwarted both without and within, have taken to distortion, demonizing, and violence. Discussion not allowed. This is expected. Conservatives and small government types, have had it. The press has been in the business of painting those on the Right as psychotic, baby-killing, meanies. If you doubt the bias, tell me […]

Byron York has an excellent piece up at The Examiner about the Flag.gov deal. Here’s the program: On Monday, White House director of new media Macon Phillips posted a note on the White House web site complaining of “disinformation about health insurance reform.” “These rumors often travel just below the surface via chain emails or […]

Now, probably every single person attending the National Organization for the Reform of Marijuana Laws conference in San Francisco voted for President Obama and really, the President, himself probably wink-winks at pot use. (Kinda like he’s actually pro gay marriage, for a single payer health care system, and wants to tax all people, not just […]

Where has Al Gore been? Like a bad penny he turned up on the news yesterday. So, the topic of the show covered environmentalist wackos, demands for Henry Waxman’s birth certificate, getting into the spirit of reporting your neighbor, or even better, your elderly mother, and the tactics the Palins will take against their enemies […]

Most people pay little attention to politics and vote as a civic duty for the guy they relate to most. They dislike politics generally, but feel it is a necessary evil. There is something that concerns me a bit. On the Right, Republicans are going after Barack Obama and he’s still personally popular even if […]

What do you think of this? This ad is effective stupid meh    pollcode.com free polls I’m curious about the messaging of the conservative movement in general and the Republican party in particular. Even after six months, it seems like the Right is having a challenging time coalescing around a message. I know attack ads […]

Rule 11: Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, polarize it. Don’t try to attack abstract corporations or bureaucracies. Identify a responsible individual. Ignore attempts to shift or spread the blame. –Saul Alinsky The purpose of Leftist blogs is to achieve a political goal. The purpose of Right blogs is to report the truth. Dan […]

If, for example, you see your neighbor use the President’s own words to describe his desires for health care, please, by all means, send in an email of proof of this citizen’s nefarious deeds: The solution to the problem of citizens having actual information about the intent of President Obama, is to spread disinformation from […]

My concern with the health care debate is that the American people will just be worn down. There has been a lot of wolf crying with non-stop media hysteria. Well, the wolf wants to devour a sixth of the American economy. The wolf is here. The time to fight is now: You are so sick […]

Since the merits of the policy can’t be discussed, demonize those who disagree. Will it work? This podcast includes info on the Palin Non-Divorce, finding your mission, how the Left will describe the right during the fight, and more. Bloggers mentioned: The Anchoress, Michelle Malkin, Allah Pundit, Dan Riehl, and Stacy McCain. Download MP3 Melissa’s […]

Losing $40 million to host the Obama gab-fests? Turning into a big propaganda arm for the Leftist government? Selling your soul and your credibility to be pals with your ideological hero? Poor, poor television networks. If the major networks go over the economic edge because their lips are forever locked on the President’s butt, may […]

Really, the Cash for Clunkers deal is another government program where one part of the population subsidizes another part of the population. First, banks. Second, houses. Third, car companies. Fourth, extended unemployment. Now, cars for citizens. Part of me doesn’t mind the last one because there is at least something tangible coming out of this […]

Now, why in heavens sweet name would citizens be upset about the government? Could it be: The economy stinks and the stimulus is a big flaming ball of disaster. From Calculated Risk: This is the fourth consecutive quarterly decline in GDP; the first time that has happened since the government started keeping quarterly records in […]

From the New York Times, this headline: “U.S. Economy Shrank Less Than Expected in Quarter”. Here is the content of the article: Things are so much better than expected, blah, blah, blah. Economists agree, blah, blah, blah. Advisers close to President Obama are cautiously optimistic blah, blah, blah, and tout the government policies, blah, blah, […]

Doctors hate the paperwork associated with government run health care. It is oppressive and can be criminal if done wrong. Just think IRS applied to health care paper work. Yeah, daily misery. I talk about more over at Pajamas: Doctors go into the business of helping people. When the business of helping people becomes purely […]

One of the most important stories you won’t hear today is being reported by Debra Burlingame in the Wall Street Journal: On June 17, at the Administrative Maximum (ADX) penitentiary in Florence, Colo., one of those albatrosses, inmate number 24079-038, began his day with a whole new range of possibilities. Eight days earlier, the U.S. […]

Hi guys, I see that you’re having a discussion about weight loss [at MelissaClouthier.com]. It’s not a burden to the website. Thought I’d share a couple thoughts and you guys can continue the discussion: 1. Often, there is an underlying issue around why a person gained weight. A physical trauma like a busted knee that […]

On my radio show tonight, on RFC [10EST, 9 CST], I talk about exactly what Megan McCardle says here: These aren’t just a way to save on health care; they’re a way to extend and expand the cultural hegemony of wealthy white elites. No, seriously. Living a fit, active life is correlated with being healthier. […]

Everyone is trying to help the ailing Health Care legislation and therefore help President Obama. The question is: Does a bad economy help or hurt Obama? On the one hand, a bad, getting worse economy frightens people who might be out of work and might run out of benefits. On the other hand, a good […]
