Democrat Governors’ Reason for Fear of the Immigration Lawsuit Shows How Power Hungry the DNC Is

Posted on by Heather Bachman

While the statement may bring a sigh of relief to some who are happy to see that at least our state leaders know what really needs attention, deeper within their rejection of the lawsuit, you see nothing but the dangerous hunger of the liberals. Despite this lawsuit being an example of a nation attacking itself […]

Obama: “Yes We Did” USA: “Did What?”

Posted on by Heather Bachman

: : : : : :  Throughout many articles, America continually sees that the Obama administration and his cronies live in a bubble where they are the greatest leaders of this nation and not the ones that are continually selling its future like the stock market.:  Recently, Obama Advisor David Axelrod stated that America would be going “backwards” if they […]

New Silicon Graffiti Video: ‘The Cold Civil War’

Posted on by Ed Driscoll

In 2007, author William Gibson wrote the phrase the “Cold Civil War” for one of his science fiction novels. That led blogger April Gavaza, also known as the “Hyacinth Girl,” as well as Mark Steyn to pick up on the concept a year later. But of course, as General McChrystal’s disastrous interview with Rolling Stone and his subsequent dismissal illustrates, the media isn’t just where wars are fought domestically, as we discuss in the latest edition of our Silicon Graffiti video blog

 

Where’s the aftermath report?: Housing Scandal Falling by Wayside While others See Continuous Daylight

: : : : : : : : : :  Let’s face it: we are nation that loves scandal. With TMZ growing by the second and “trash magazines” such as the National Enquirer seeing no downfall from the supposed death of the print publication, it’s eminent that we love to gasp at the woes of society.:  : : : : : : : : : : : : : : :  The only problem with this is it […]

 

Talk about Biting the Hand that Fed You: Obama’s Attack on America’s Students

Posted on by Heather Bachman

: : : :  Whether we like to actually admit it, the youth of our nation voted en masse for President Barack Obama.:  Exit polls indicate he won as much as 66% of voters under 30 years old.:  Enchanted by the word “change” entering into the prospective definition of their future, Obama calmed this worried, young sector of […]

 

Obama Knew all and did Nothing….

Posted on by Heather Bachman

From day one of the spill, we have seen that it has left more than tragedy and waste in its path but also a magnifying of exactly what our White House holds: Zero real leadership and continuous degradation of the U.S. Constitution.:  While many political experts have said time and time again that our Commander […]

 

Barton’s Short Lived Gift to the DNC

Posted on by Heather Bachman

Yesterday, Representative Joe Barton issued an apology, first on behalf of the nation and then of himself and called the recent acceptance of the Obama Administration’s orders for BP to pay $20 billion dollars in order to compensate for damage from the spill a “shakedown”.:  This apology was a horrid utterance by a man who […]

 

America Deserves the Apology…Not BP

Posted on by Heather Bachman

BP is deserving of no apology; the real apology, should be to the American people. What is the real “shakedown” are the actions taken by the Obama Administration in order to milk whatever they can get from the BP spill aftermath. While they are happily having speeches cloaked in actions toward BP when in reality […]

Originally posted at NewsReal: On June 1st, Right Wing News posted their “20 Hottest Conservative Women in New Media (2010 Edition).”: Their first edition was last year and it was born in response to Playboy’s Guy Cimbalo and his disgusting hit piece on conservative women. His article (term used loosely) was a list which was comprised […]

 

Right Online Plug: Vegas Baby!

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

Full disclosure: I’ve been honored by AFP for online work and they sponsored me to their conference–it’s where I learned Twitter. I am not and have never been, however, paid by AFP. They just do some great work–especially with Right Online. Anyway, I keep going to the RightOnline conference because I always learn something new […]

 

Scapegoating Bloggers

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

I remember a couple years ago when Sean Hannity spat out the word “bloggers” like it was a cuss word and then, during the height of the abuse Sarah Palin was receiving, when she too, blamed bloggers. It was head-scratching because both these public figures had benefited mightily from the record-correcting and positive stories by […]

 

Michigan To License Journalists?

Posted on by Warner Todd Huston

This is the face of tyranny. A Michigan State Senator has introduced an Orwellian bill that would provide for the licensing of journalists. There is no doubt that this thing is aimed squarely at delegitimizing the New Media, silencing bloggers, and creating a protected class of state approved “journalists.” State Senator Bruce Patterson is the […]

 

Mark their words

Jihad Watch and Atlas Shrugs — two websites run by friends of mine who have very clearly articulated views about Islamic radicalism, and controversial ones about what to do about it — are busy, and then some, with this story: A federal agency has rejected a request for a trademark by the organization “Stop Islamization […]

 

Women Can Have It All? Only If You Abort, Claim Pro-Abortion Feminists

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

Last week, an ad campaign aimed at helping women learn about post-abortion syndrome exposed the fact that modern day Feminists rejoice at abortion for convenience and that they are anything but “pro-women.” I wrote about it here and those same feminists, and others, were none too pleased with me. While they blatantly ignored my point […]

 

Feminists Rejoice At Idea of Abortion For Convenience

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

Feminists rejoice at the idea of abortion for convenience. They are also anti-woman. Most of us realize that the whole “safe, legal and rare” thing that pro-abortion advocates spout is lip service only. But, if you ever had any doubt, this should set that doubt aside once and for all. John Hawkins at Right Wing […]

 

Successes, I’ve had a few

Posted on by Ron Coleman

Success is hard to define.:  We think we know it when we see it.:  But we seldom do.:  In fact, more often than not we actually misidentify things such as material abundance, popularity or power “success.”:  They can in fact be correlative with success, but they are not success or even necessarily proof of success.

Multiplicity II, Starring Janeane Garofalo As Andie MacDowell

Posted on by Ed Driscoll

During the Bush #43 administration, the left really went to town with their practice of stealing pages from the conservative playbook that they had preceding years. But much like the cloning machine in Michael Keaton’s “Multiplicity”, the copy of a copy of a copy tended to lose more than a little crispness once it had been cloned. Here’s a brief, and very likely incomplete recap

Brooke Fox of Seattle’s MOVIN, 92.5 FM radio show “The Ladies Room” wants to know who would be worth risking jail just so you could punch them out. Such violence.

First Treacher, Now Peggy Fleming. Biden’s Motorcade Injures Fleming

Posted on by Lori Ziganto

First, they came for some random citizens that I didn’t know – and I did nothing. Then, they came for Treacher – and I said nothing (except for blogging about it and twittering some stern messages!) Next, they came for Peggy Fleming. Before they come for me, I must speak up. Joe Biden’s motorcade was […]

 

The Global Warming Guerrillas

Posted on by Ed Driscoll

“The Climate Consensus may hold the establishment — the universities, the media, big business, government — but it is losing the jungles of the web. After all, getting research grants, doing pieces to cameras and advising boards takes time. The very ostracism the sceptics suffered has left them free to do their digging untroubled by grant applications and invitations to Stockholm.”

 

Something To Warm Your Heart Before The Scott Brown And What’s Her Name Special Election

Posted on by Melissa Clouthier

A profoundly distressed Andrew Sullivan: I can see no alternative scenario but a huge – staggeringly huge – victory for the FNC/RNC machine tomorrow. They crafted a strategy of total oppositionism to anything Obama proposed a year ago. Remember they gave him zero votes on even the stimulus in his first weeks. They saw health […]
