Gee, I guess I have a new hobby! It’s called “Let’s Mock the ‘Racist’ Victimologists”! Whoopee!! Racism!! Come out, come out, wherever you are! Okay, let’s put on our “racism radar” and talk some more about “racist” films. How about “Falling Down“? It’s not like you wouldn’t come across a couple of vatos like this, […]

My new Talk Radio Watch column is now up at WND. Enjoy FREE audio and webcam highlights from this week in conservative talk radio: Rush, Beck, Levin and many more — including the many endorsements J.D. Hayworth is getting from his fellow broadcasters. Here’s what came in after deadline: USA Weekend (whatever that is) offers […]

I promised to update a bit on “The Hurt Locker.” I’ve posted a couple of times on the movie, although I did not write a review. I need to see it again to be able to write something fresh. I can tell you though, it’s a great flick, and this was nowhere near my reaction: […]

A couple of Utah state legislators want to give self-governance a try: We don’t believe that 535 members of Congress and the president can educate our children, provide health care, pave our roads and protect our environment as well as the nation’s 8,000 state legislators and tens of thousands of local officials. So please, let […]

Joseph Stack flew an airplane into an office building, killing himself and at least one other person, because of his years-old anger and frustration with the government, or so he wrote. So is it terrorism? Well, that depends. The act itself isn’t enough to make it terrorism. Otherwise, every violent act could be tagged that […]

Via John Hawkins and Linkiest (and also Prairie Pundit), I just found this video, “Assault Breacher Vehicle”: This is something else! For more information, see the Los Angeles Times, “Marine Assault Vehicles Key to Afghan Strategy.” Technical details at Jane’s Defense Weekly: For the ABV role, the turret of the M1A1 Abrams MBT has been […]

Rasmussen: Only 21% Say U.S. Government Has Consent of the Governed: The founding document of the United States, the Declaration of Independence, states that governments derive “their just powers from the consent of the governed.” Today, however, just 21% of voters nationwide believe that the federal government enjoys the consent of the governed. A new […]

If Barack Obama wants a way to get back in the good with a majority of Americans, maybe he should aim the troops toward Tibet: Washington (CNN) — Nearly three-quarters of all Americans think Tibet should be an independent country, according to a new national poll. Or maybe not: However, the CNN/Opinion Research Corp. survey […]

Well, it’s not all babe-blogging and punk flashbacks around here! [Here, actually.] I do actually find time to read some professional literature — although that won’t matter to those attacking me as a sh**ty political scientist! (I’ll respond to that later … idiots!) Anyway, here’s a great piece from the latest International Security, Vipin Narang’s, […]

I was astounded watching Jon Stewart on The Daily Show last night, expounding on why we need this health care bill, saying that Medicare and Social Security were great social programs that work, so what was the difference with the health bill? Did Jon not get the memo that Medicare and Social Security ARE BROKE!!! […]

CPAC is this week and I’ll be covering the event for PJ TV. Other RWN bloggers including Melissa Clouthier, Sharon Soon, Kathleen McKinley, & Tabitha Hale will also be at the event. So, while we’re gone, our posting may be a little spotty — but, RWN’s week-end bloggers should be taking up the slack. But […]

I’ve got a Memeorandum thread this morning, first time in a while. It turns out just writing about the murdering proclivities of radical Obama-backing Harvard professors gets some folks on the radical left pretty angry. Comrade Repsac3, Commissar of State Security, People’s Commissariat for Internet Affairs, who I thought put his Donald-demonology to bed, must […]

From WSJ: It has been a bad–make that dreadful–few weeks for what used to be called the “settled science” of global warming, and especially for the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change that is supposed to be its gold standard. First it turns out that the Himalayan glaciers are not going to melt anytime soon, […]

My husband (and his video camera) didn’t make it inside this meeting in our neighborhood on Sunday, but the National Post‘s “free speech” beat reporter Joseph Brean did. Here’s what he saw and heard: These brief remarks were among the least controversial at a conference about the “Media War on Islam” on Sunday at a […]

Getting ready to watch “The Bachelor” in a little while. So, let me share some day-after-Valentine’s blog stuff. From the Los Angeles Times, “Matchmakers’ Personal Touch Thrives Despite EHarmony, Match.com“: Like social networking, which had many dating industry experts inaccurately predicting the demise of paid Internet dating sites, Internet dating hasn’t killed matchmaking, but fed […]

Counterterrorism Czar John Brennan made a comparison this weekend that has landed him in hot water. Speaking at the Islamic Center at New York University on Saturday and apparently in response to a question about recidivism among the Gitmo inmates who had been released, he said the rate was about 20%. Ok, that’s arguable, but […]

On a somewhat random note, I thought to “google” the word liberals . When the auto-suggest popped up, I was pleasantly amused to see that out of the top ten searches beginning with the word, half were neutral and half were… not so positive: Did everyone catch that the second-most searched term in Google is […]

You know those wall street fat cats the Democrats are always howling about? A lot more than Democrats were howling about the $17 million bonus awarded to JPMorgan Chase Chief Executive Officer Jamie Dimon and the $9 million bonus for Goldman Sachs CEO Lloyd Blankfein after our taxpayer money bailed them out. Here is what […]

Another day, another “school shooting.” That we Canadians have per capita almost as many of these things as Americans do — matter of fact (and fiction), we invented them, long before Columbine— we smug Canadians (and our chief enabler Michael Moore) need to finally drop the “gun control” crap. And start looking at what it […]

One of my favorite parts of ESPN’s Monday Night Countdown this year was the “Come on, man!” segment: the talking heads would highlight something stupid (or funny) from the previous week and tag whoever was responsible with that line. “Come on, man!” I’m thinking exactly that about some of my conservative brethren right now, because […]

And yeah, I saw that headline in that British paper about how the scientific “consensus” is starting to swing the other way. Bunk, says I. I’ve got proof. See, I walked outside today. Coat hanging open, no gloves. And I thought to myself: wow, it’s pretty warm out. Bam! Global warming! Actual temperature: 26 degrees. […]

The government health care debate may be stalled in Washington, but it’s up and at ’em in Madison. We were arguing about it just this week: specifically, whether or not to extend government benefits to more childless adults. Yes, that’s right. We in Wisconsin provide government-run, taxpayer-subsidized health care to childless adults — leaving no […]
