“American Capitalism is a malignancy that permeates our economic, social, and political systems and institutions. This untreated cancer ravaging the body of civilization is spreading like an unchecked conflagration in a munitions factory. Feudalism didn’t die; it simply evolved. Corporatism, Consumerism, wage slavery, debt slavery, free trade agreements, deregulation, and privatization condemn most of the […]

— A 10 year aggravated child molestation charge for a 17-year old who had consensual oral sex from a 15 year old? I’m from the “lock them up and throw away the key” school when it comes to lawbreakers and even I think that’s an insanely harsh sentence. In fact, that 10 year term is […]

Tomorrow, I’m planning to put together a post called, “RWN’s favorite quotes of 2006.” How about suggesting some of your favorite quotes of 2006 to make sure I don’t forget any of the really good ones.

Hillary Clinton has finally changed her stance on the war in Iraq: “Clinton has often been asked if she regrets her vote authorizing military action and she usually answers that question with an artful dodge, saying that she accepts responsibility for the vote and suggesting that if the Senate had all the information it has […]

Over at YouTube, an anti-jihad music video by a group called Stuck Mojo is causing controversy. According to the band: Something very strange happened today with the “Open Season” video on YouTube.

“(O)n sober reflection, things in fact are hardly lost. There has been no repeat of 9/11. The U.S. military has killed thousands of jihadists. The Taliban and Saddam are gone. There are still democratic governments in Afghanistan and Iraq struggling to make it, the first in the history of the region. Our troops in the […]

Here’s the first Duncan Hunter ad which he’s running in South Carolina. It’s about “fair trade,” which, along with national security and illegal immigration is one of Hunter’s three big issues, but is that really the issue to start a campaign on? On the upside, it does differentiate Hunter from the other ’08 contenders and […]

Unfortunately, I have to respectfully disagree with my pal Hugh Hewitt who’s peddling a line that I’ve heard quite a lot of late, that the 2008 nominations are going to be almost solely about national security. The only twist here is that Hugh seems to be using this line to sell Mitt Romney, which is […]

The winners […]

Some People seem to be upset that the US is using foreign aid to sway votes on the UN Security Council: “Kofi Annan, the outgoing UN Secretary-General, expressed his frustration at the power the US wields over the UN in his parting speech last week. In a detailed analysis of 50 years of data, Harvard […]

It amazes me that a movie like Pursuit of Happyness could actually get made because it breaks all of Hollywood’s rules. There are no special effects; the dad, Will Smith, is a better parent than mom — and he makes it on his own, without getting any lucky breaks, help from the government, liberals, or […]

If moonbat George Monibot were an American, this quote would have earned him a top 10 spot in the most obnoxious quotes of 2006: “There was one proposal in Sir Rod Eddington’s report to the Treasury with which, when I first read it, I wholeheartedly agreed. He insists that “the transport sector, including aviation, should […]

Question: Presidential candidate Rep. Hunter is a conservative except, as you’ve noted, when it comes to his protectionist tendencies (e.g. opposing NAFTA). Do you think that a somewhat-protectionist but otherwise capitalist conservative can win in the Republican Party presidential primaries? I really have reservations about how much our economy has been opened and left vulnerable […]

Question: “Kirk or Picard.” — ArbiterStrikesBack Answer: All I have to say about this is that Kirk was like the idealized American version of Starship captain while Picard was more like the idealized EU version of a Starship Captain. Hence: Kirk rules and Picard drools!

Question: If Senator Tim Johnson can’t continue his term, how can the Governor appoint anyone other than a Democrat?” — Tom_pinko_Delay Answer: I’ve tried to steer clear of the whole Tim Johnson thing because it’s almost impossible not to sound callous when you’re talking about the situation. Here you have a poor guy who’s in […]

It’s impossible to have a reasonable, rational, debate about torture in this country, because liberals tend to call anything and everything torture. We’re talking about people who make no distinction between let’s say wrapping someone in an Israeli flag, refusing to let them sleep, or say pulling out their fingernails with pliers. To liberals, anything […]
