World’s Fastest Memory Hole: Washington Times Yanks Dale Robertson Column!

Just in, from Tommy Christopher, “Washington Times Pulls Dale ‘N-Word Sign’ Robertson’s Tea Party Column.” And, just a few minutes earlier, from Tabitha Hale at Red State, “Dear Washington Times: Seriously?“: The Washington Times has managed to give credibility to this delusional racist who claims to be the founder of the Tea Party. As Tommy […]

 

Debating the Right to Discriminate

My motivation on this issue, first, is to pushback against the radical left’s “racist” Rand Paul meme. I do, second, appreciate the free speech claims that underlie the libertarian argument. And no one is talking about going back to pre-1964 American politics (despite what the nihilists at Firedoglake and elsewhere would have). Besides, Megyn Kelly […]

 

Rand Paul on Rachel Maddow: ‘IDEOLOGICAL EXTREMISM = RACISM’

It’s a long video, but compelling — and the very best segment is near the end, where Dr. Rand Paul states one more time, as unequivocally as can be, that he abhors and rejects government-sponsored “institutional” racism, but that for leftists the “totality” of his views are irrelevant to the debate they want to have. […]

 


Democratic November Hopes Hang on Thin Reed of PA-12

It’s fascinating that most of the election attention this afternoon is focused on yesterday’s special election in Pennsylvania’s 12th congressional district. The New York Times wasted no time to advance the left’s meme going forward, “Democrats See Hope for Fall in Victory in House Race.” And not to be outdone is CSM, “PA-12: A template […]

 

Leftists Spin ‘Huge’ Victory for Mark Critz in PA-12

There’s some attention this morning on the Tim Burns loss in PA-12. Steve Benen, hoping to play down this year’s anti-Obama fever, is pumping up the win by former John Murtha crony Mark Critz as “arguably the most important election” of the day. And “the world’s dumbest blogger” Matthew Yglesias is working the same beat: […]

 


End the European Bailouts Today (Live!)

House Republican Conference Chairman Mike Pence and Conference Vice-Chair Cathy McMorris Rodgers have been speaking out for weeks against the U.S. helping to bailout Greece. Pence has noted that “future Americans may be picking up the tab for as much as $50 billion in additional loan guarantees for the rest of Europe in the form […]

The StarPress via the Associated Press: is reporting that a special election will be held within 60 days of GOP Rep. Mark Souder’s effective resignation date.:  GOP State Senator Stutzman would be the most logical, popular, and conservative choice to replace Souder as he lives in Souder’s district.:  Erick Erickson of RedState has always maintained his […]

 

A Big Victory For Liberty In Texas Against Unions

This is a big victory for liberty, parents, and education. From the Lone Star Report: A Texas Attorney General’s opinion (GA-0774) issued today stated that school districts may not fund political action committees of teacher unions via payroll deductions. “Because the Legislature has not expressly or impliedly authorized school districts to process payroll deductions for […]

 

The Empire State Building Committee’s Shame

From Jeffrey Scott Shapiro of FoxNews.com: Last year, the management of the Empire State Building stunned New Yorkers when they decided to honor the 60th anniversary of the 1949 Maoist Communist Revolution by illuminating the tower in red. The decision drew the protest of dozens of human rights activists who took issue with the management’s […]

 

Newt Gingrich Attacks Kagan Nomination and Obama’s ‘Secular-Socialist Machine’

Newt Gingrich is on something of a tear this week. Huffington Post is up in arms today over the former House Speaker’s slam on Obama’s High Court nominee Elena Kagan: And then there’s Crooks and Liars goon John Amato, freakin’ at Gingrich’s FNS gig this morning, “Newt Gingrich says President Obama is Nazi-Commie “threat to […]

 

Griff Jenkins Interviews Social Justice Teacher Ron Gochez: ‘I Am Against Capitalism’

Robert Stacy McCain loves his Google bombs, but I’m telling you, I’m getting some of teh awesome search engine exposure with my reporting on Los Angeles revolutionary teacher Ron Gochez. I mean, seriously. Search for “Ron Gochez” and my entries top the list. I’m even beating Gochez on Facebook! Sweet. And lots of folks have […]

 



Elites Hate When The People Speak

Much of the animosity we’ve witnessed directed at the Tea Party over the last year has come from political and cultural elites who find regular people disturbing, if not downright disgusting.:  The peasants, according to elites, are prone to temper tantrums and just don’t get how things work in the sophisticated political world. That same […]

 


Take That, Liberal Media

*UPDATE: Apparently, the Star-Ledger doesn’t like when the truth is disclosed. They’ve quietly pulled all relevant YouTube videos relating to the incident. Thank goodness for the Eyeblast (the conservative version of YouTube), with which I’ve replaced the the YouTube video. Despite the “controversy” over newly elected Republican Governor Chris Christie, you’ve got to admit that […]

 

From Awful To Awesome

Today let’s go from awful to awesome in our public officials. Let’s start with awful. Attorney General Eric Holder on Thursday said that he hasn’t read Arizona’s recently adopted anti-illegal immigration law that has generated sharp criticism from the Administration he represents. In a Department of Justice oversight hearing of the House Judiciary Committee, Rep. […]

 

Caleb Howe Doesn’t Like Roger Ebert

Folks gotta read this, “I Don’t Like Roger Ebert.” (Via Memeorandum.) I just tweeted @ CalebHowe the other day, so it’s a strangely funny kinda coincidence. And the fits of apoplexy caused by this are simply astounding. Even better is that Ebert couldn’t let things go, wrote a big follow-up slamming his critics, and gets […]

 

4 Reasons Why Crist Will Lose

It’s always dangerous to get close to a backstabber. The news that Charlie Crist won’t refund contributions he received from Republican donors inspired me to explain why Crist’s independent campaign is doomed: Crist will get no more Republican money. Fundraising is crucial to politics, and there are no direct-mail lists of “raging moderates” who will […]

 

Milbloggers Issue a Joint Statement on DADT

I think you will find this interesting. The Milbloggers (military bloggers) listed below are essentially saying that the “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” policy towards gays in the military, and implemented by Clinton, is not necessary. They welcome “open and honorable service, regardless of sexual orientation.” Almost all, if not all, of these bloggers are conservative. […]

 




This Week in Automotivators, May 3-9

And finally: This Week in Automotivators wishes everyone a Happy Mother’s Day. Especially all the moms. TWiA also wonders whether there should be a day for those who aren’t parents. But if there was, who would buy the cards? As seen on TrogloPundit. Previously: This Week in Automotivators, April 19-25 This Week in Automotivators, April […]

 

Barack Obama’s La Raza Ties

Here’s a follow up to last night’s post, “Ron Gochez, Anti-Semitic Social Justice Teacher and Reconquista Activist, Connects With Underage Student Hotties on MySpace.” It turns out that El Presidente Obarrio “walks the walk” with the La Raza separatists. And from Michelle, “15 things you should know about ‘The Race’“: “The Race” gives mainstream cover […]
