The Joy of Huffington Post

HuffPo has become a must read for me. Why? Because there in all its glory you can see the vacuous reasoning of the left proudly displayed. And it is a must read because its value is contained in articles by lefties that would never, ever be accepted by the editor of a newspaper for the […]

 

Moonbats Appear at cBSNews.com

Ya know, there are some days where not much seems interesting news wise, even when digging deep. Probably doesn’t help that my Giants are playing the Cowgirls later this afternoon. Not much in the global warming or illegal immigration realms, the media doesn’t really want to talk about the successes in Iraq, and, football is […]

 

What the Huck?

Mark R. Levin: Huckabee continues to use his faith as a weapon against those who question not his faith, but his political populism — much of which he shares with secular progressives. And he is clearly hoping to stir up resentment among Evangelical Christians against the other elements of the conservative movement and Republican Party […]

The Case Against McCain

Update: (Audio) Rick Santorum makes his own case against McCain I’m swiping the bullet points of this from Mark Levin: All I can say is that McCain is basically a Democrat on every issue except foreign policy and the war.

Liveblogging The Debate

Tonight at 9 PM EST, I’m going to be liveblogging the GOP debate out of South Carolina. I had considered actually foregoing the liveblogging and attending in person, but I figured it would be a madhouse and that I’d get more traffic out of liveblogging than actually attending and taking pictures. So, liveblogging it is: […]

 

A Teleconference With Fred Thompson

This afternoon, along with what sounded like 5 gazillion other bloggers, I was on a teleconference with Fred Thompson. It was a bit shorter than I would have liked and I didn’t get a chance to ask a question, but here’s a round-up (Everything that follows is from my notes, not actual quotes). Before Fred […]

 

Harbor An Illegal Alien, Go To Jail

Some people will tell you that illegal immigration is a victimless crime, but they’re wrong. Officer Rodney Johnson could tell you that if he had survived his encounter with an illegal alien by the name of Juan Leonardo Quintero, On Sept. 21, 2006, officer Johnson stopped a truck owned by Camp’s company for a traffic […]

The Nominee The Republican Party Really Wants On The Democratic Side Or Alternately, Why You Should Root For Hillary To Beat Barack

I can guarantee you that there were a lot of Republicans at the RNC, NRCC, & NRSC sighing with relief when Hillary Clinton won New Hampshire. That’s because they DESPERATELY want Hillary Clinton to be the Democratic nominee. Why? Because the Republican base isn’t energized and because we’re probably heading towards a nominee who doesn’t […]

 

My Position On Mike Huckabee In Less Than 100 Words

While Mike Huckabee isn’t as conservative as I’d like, John McCain has done more damage to conservative causes over the last decade than anyone else, Democrat or Republican, and Rudy Giuliani has as much in common with pro-war, liberal Democrats like Joe Lieberman and Christopher Hitchens as he does with conservatives. Mitt Romney may be […]

 



Excerpt Of The Day: Paglia On Hillary

Hillary’s willingness to tolerate Bill’s compulsive philandering is a function of her general contempt for men. She distrusts them and feels morally superior to them. Following the pattern of her long-suffering mother, she thinks it is her mission to endure every insult and personal degradation for a higher cause — which, unlike her self-sacrificing mother, […]
