The Dems are a bit pathetic lately, so I thought I should give them some help as someone has to challenge McCain to keep him from lazily sliding leftwards. Obviously, they need a way to pick their candidate that satisfies both sides. With the Hillary and Obama so close in delegates, the simple election solutions […]

Shannon Love: Obama’s close association with Rev. Wright may have destroyed his political ambitions by undermining the perception that he is a new kind of African-American politician, who does not see white Americans as evil. It called into question the sincerity of his views about the majority of Americans and American institutions. How can he […]

Director Oliver Stone has set James Cromwell to play George Herbert Walker Bush and Ellen Burstyn to play former first lady Barbara Bush in “W,” a drama about the formative years of their son, President George W.

Remember when I reported on the record high profits that Planned Parenthood, a non-profit organization, received last year? Business at Planned Parenthood is going very well. The Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA) just released their annual report for the 2005 – 2006 fiscal year. The nonprofit organization performed a record 264,943 abortions, attained a […]

Let me recommend some reading for those of you interested in some good sources of opinion that provide a context and insight about what is going on in Basra. But before I do, let me make a few comments. What is happening in Basra is what all of us, from the anti-war side to the […]

The Washington Post Fact Checker section catches BO in another example of him embellishing his and his family’s history: Addressing civil rights activists in Selma, Ala., a year ago, Sen. Barack Obama traced his “very existence” to the generosity of the Kennedy family, which he said paid for his Kenyan father to travel to America […]

Over at Crooks and Liars (which I have always thought is an apt name for a liberal blog), a seething cauldron of progressive insanity (OK, I know, most of the left-o-sphere is the same way), last nights open thread post features this photo Any guesses as to what it is supposed to imply? And which […]

From Political Punch, via Hot Air: Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., launches a biography tour next week, which looks to tell the American people about his days as a POW in Vietnam, at least based on his new TV ad (watch HERE) introduced today in New Mexico. In response, Democratic National Committee chairman Howard Dean issued […]

Crossposted from STACLU FOX: This was supposed to be the week that the Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr. returned to the pulpit to preach for the first time since his anti-American sermons generated nationwide outrage and drew condemnation from his longtime parishioner, Barack Obama. But, citing security concerns, Wright canceled his speaking engagements in Florida and […]

They’re lining up for hours to vote in Zimbabwe today. The question is whether the votes will count. There have already been widespread irregularities. Zimbabwe has become a textbook example of how to destroy an economy through heavy-handed governmental intervention in the free market, including forced redistribution of wealth (farms were taken from white farmers […]

“[Avi] Lewis’ main claim to fame (or, rather, infamy) was an interview he conducted with former Dutch parliamentarian and author Ayaan Hirsi Ali in June 2007. “The segment quickly made Lewis, and by extension the CBC, a worldwide laughingstock. “But instead of ending his broadcasting career, that interview may have served as Avi Lewis’s inadvertent […]

Yesterday, I had an opportunity to talk to RNC Chairman Mike Duncan and I asked him about an argument that has been made many times in the blogosphere, especially since John McCain became our nominee. That question and Mike Duncan’s answer, which I thought was very good, follows, Here’s an argument that I don’t agree […]

“A measure of hypocrisy is necessary to a functioning society. It’s quite possible, on the one hand, to be opposed to the legalization of prostitution yet, on the other, to pull your hat down over your brow every other Tuesday and sneak off to the cat house on the other side of town. Your inability […]

There’s an enormous inconsistency in the way that global warming is argued that Al Gore’s latest comments are right in line with, Self-avowed “P.R. agent for the planet” Al Gore says those who still doubt that global warming is caused by man – among them, Vice President Dick Cheney – are acting like the fringe […]

The very fact that the NAACP has so little to do that they’re bothering to get involved in a case like this is a pretty good argument that the organization no longer has a serious reason to continue to exist, The Florida branch of the NAACP says a bill that would ban students from wearing […]

Ross Douthat has a great piece in The Atlantic on how Hollywood is returning to the themes of the 1970s due in large part to the Iraq War: Nothing in this commentary, however, bears much resemblance to the way American popular culture actually has evolved since 9/11. The latter-day cowboys have conspicuously failed to materialize: […]

“If America is looking for a second term of the Jimmy Carter Administration of high taxes at home and weakness abroad vote Obama. I doubt they are.” — A McCain Staffer

One of the things that you hear constantly from Obama supporters is that the super delegates absolutely have to hand Obama the Democratic nomination or his supporters, particularly his black supporters, will defect and cost the Democrats the general election. For example, here’s Jim Vandehei & Mike Allen from the Politico Unless Clinton is able […]

Back in 2002, in one of the most disgraceful, unpatriotic displays by members of Congress in American history, loathsome liberal Democrats, Jim McDermott and David Bonior actually went to Iraq before the war and did what amounted to public relations work for Saddam Hussein. Believe it or not, it turns out that they were in […]

Over at Slate, Anne Applebaum has a column that suggests that the U.S. “Boycott Beijing.” Now, I think the Chinese are monsters who enslave their own people, are a negative influence around the world, that it was a huge mistake to reward them with an Olympics in the first place, and that what they’re doing […]

One of the differences between conservatives and animal rights wackos is that conservatives put a significantly higher value on the lives of people than animals. Not so the wackos.
