Probably not. But the probability that the cold weather the world is experiencing might be part of a multi-decadal oscillation (MDO) and a natural cyclical occurrence puts a real dent in the so-called “science” of man-made global warming. I found it interesting that over the weekend, the New York Times went to great lengths to […]

The following letter is from Lt. Col. Allen West, a Black conservative candidate for the House in Florida’s Congressional District 22, and: is a must read. As you can see in the picture above though, Majority Leader Harry Reid would probably consider him too “dark skinned” to be electable. But I’m thinking he will win easily. […]

I know that we are beating this horse to death with Harry Reid and his racial remarks, but this point just has to be made. An e-mailer over at NRO pointed this out: “Harry Reid’s] remark’s context is (apologies) remarkable. From media reports, it appears that the Majority Leader made these statements to a group […]

A year ago, I wrote more on gay marriage than anything else. On the heels of passage of Proposition 8, Californians witnessed one of the most vicious campaigns of partisan demonization witnessed in post-civil rights American politics. I noted this briefly the other day, in my essay, “The Coming Prop 8 Show Trial.” The question […]

The FOIA proves its usefulness once again, we’ve discussed Bloomberg’s Mayors Against Illegal Guns (MAIG) organization before, but we now know a lot more about their strategy thanks to FOIA and some hardworking Second Amendment activists.:  A few months back, the WaPo reported that Bloomberg’s group sent a 40 point blueprint to increase gun control […]

Over at Hot Air, Karl asks: The new Boston Globe poll showing Democrat Martha Coakley beating Republican Scott Brown by 15-points in the race for Ted Kennedy’s Senate seat, when contrasted with Public Policy Polling showing a dead heat, has people scratching their heads. So what’s up with that? My usual caveat: polls suck. But […]

It would have been amusing if it hadn’t been so sad. This morning I was listening to a phone interview a: Fox News reporter was having with Al: Sharpton: about the recent controversy over a new book that relates how senate Majority Leader Harry Reid’s remarked during the 2008 campaign that Obama benefited from being”light skinned” and having […]

You have got to be kidding. No? Well then. The top Democrat in the U.S. Senate apologized on Saturday for comments he made about Barack Obama’s race during the 2008 presidential bid. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada described then-Sen. Barack Obama as “light skinned” and “with no Negro dialect.” Obama is the nation’s […]

With all the crying about what the left has inherited from Bush, there is one thing I do wish y’all had “inherited”. A desire to get rid of the “soft bigotry of lowered expectations.” Instead, you foment it. You exclaim in amazement “Oh, look! He sure does talk purty! For a black guy and all.” How vile. It also means that your race card is no longer accepted. Having you attempt to use a race card would be like Al Gore attempting to use a bitter, old tool card; utterly laughable

I’m telling you, this just brightens my day — and I’ve been having a good one already! Those guys at the People’s Cube are simply the best. One of those sharp cookies over there bought the domain name .com for the most-likely alternate version of Cindy Sheehan’s new organizing website, “Peace of the Action,” which […]

The ever entertaining Ezra Klein, charter member of the juice-box mafia, and apparently not a history major says: I’ll just note that Democrats will definitely lose their supermajority sooner than later. If not, something is going seriously wrong in the system. A competitive, two-party democracy shouldn’t have long periods of single-party dominance. The mid-20th century, […]

President Obama hasn’t even made a token effort to keep his campaign promises of more openness and transparency in government. It was all just another lie. — Jack Cafferty When the president stopped the enhanced-interrogation programs and revealed our tactics to our enemies, he significantly reduced our ability to successfully interrogate any senior al-Qaeda leaders. […]

The full entry is cross-posted from American Power. It’s been a long couple of days, but I’ll never forget my SoCal freeway-flying with Robert Stacy McCain riding shotgun, manning the navigation system, and filing for deadline near-abouts simultaneously! The man is a journalistic workhorse, and cruising pregame with McCain will leave you loaded for bear […]

During my annual Advent pilgrimage to the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington, D.C., I encountered a glaring example of how marginalized boys have become in our schools. I always enjoy a particular display, sponsored by the Holy Childhood Association (HCA), which hosts a national competition of drawings related to […]

I remember pulling into the high school parking lot and seeing guns hanging in the back windows of pickups parked there.  But that was a time long ago, before Columbine, the death of common sense and the rise of zero tolerance. Today it’s common knowledge that you don’t bring a gun to school.  Gary Tudesko, […]

My heart did a little flip reading this at National Review. Now, the special election for the seat is less than two weeks away. It represents the only electoral threat to 60 that Democrats will face until November. Republican Scott Brown is mounting a surprisingly strong bid, trailing Massachusetts attorney general Martha Coakleyby only 9 […]

Can the government do anything right? In the process that this takes, including being approved by Congress, no one….not one person, considered that this might be offensive??? The word “negro” is now featured on an official U.S. document and now many are questioning if the Census Bureau is being insensitive. …………………. Question #9 on the […]

You might have seen some whining from the left about Rasmussen’s recent poll numbers on Pres. Obama. They were busy accusing Rasmussen of actually being rightwing. I guess they will have to add Gallup to the rightwing conspiracy: According to Gallup’s first full data set for 2010, Barack Obama starts his second year in office […]

t’s really amazing that after one year of Obama, Democrats are dropping like flies: “Four top Democrats – including veteran Sens. Chris Dodd and Byron Dorgan – all prepared to pull the plug on their campaigns in a 24-hour period that began Tuesday, and in the process, offered an unnerving glimpse at the perilous election […]

This whole “racism” thing is getting tired.  Chris Matthews, the man who gets tingles when he hears President Obama speak, not only used the term “teabagger” repeatedly in this clip, but compounded his stupidity by claiming every tea party protestor was white. Every one of them: Visit msnbc.com for breaking news, world news, and news […]

This entry is cross-posted in full at American Power. My RWN weekday blogging’s been a little slow off the start, but will pick up as my New Year’s schedule gets under control. I’m going to be getting back into my hiking regimen, since us bloggers can’t be sitting around all day! Here’s an excerpt from […]

I had the pleasure, last Sunday, of participating in an interview with Michael Yon on PunditReview radio. Michael had finished up a year out of the country, covering both Afghanistan and Iraq as a citizen journalist (he’s covered those wars for 5 1/2 years). He was in Hong Kong when we did the interview (you […]

It took George Bush eight years and two wars to get here: (via Wizbang) Liberals may be forgiven for looking at the latest public opinion surveys and wondering if they somehow stumbled into the Valley of Death instead of Obama’s promised paradise. The president remains somewhat popular personally, but, as Matthew Continetti of The Weekly […]

From Michael O’Hanlon, et al., “States of Conflict: An Update.” And from the conclusion: In Afghanistan, 2009 was the year of decisions – by President Obama, of course, by Gen. Stanley A. McChrystal and by the Afghan people as they re-elected Hamid Karzai as president. Afghanistan had a bloody year, with more than 300 Americans […]

Homeland Security Secretary Napolitano’s appearance on a Sunday talk show after the attempted terror attack, assuring the traveling public that the system had “worked,” will no doubt be one of the low points of this administration. And this is an administration full of low points in just it’s first year. It was a decidedly absurd […]

So here we are in 2010. I’ll be the first to say that I am not the least bit sorry to say goodbye. As painful and crazy as it was – both personally and politically – it was in many ways the start of something bigger than I could have imagined… as well as a […]

My introduction to the less superficial elements of the race to fill Ted Kennedy’s seat in the Senate came via the blogging efforts of Sissy Willis. The notion that we can strike a blow against ObamaCare with this race was interesting. Today, I came upon this. What’s the deal? Sign on to the party of […]
