I’ve never had much luck with golf. I played a few times when I was a teenager, but I wasn’t THAT into it and I had a couple of rotten experiences with the game. In one of the first rounds of golf that I ever played, I had no idea what I was doing — […]

With the elections coming up in November, it’s important for the American people to take a hard look at how both political parties intend to handle the war on terrorism. Republicans believe in winning the war in Iraq, aggressively pursuing terrorists far from our shores, and using our intelligence assets to prevent another attack. On […]

From the comments section of the latest Rightroots post “Nothing on Rightroots (but good luck on that). Just want to say, heavy props on advertising Sam Harris’s book on your site; these days, that kind of thing takes guts. And if there’s one thing morally/intellectually destroying this nation/the world, it’s organized religion. No question of […]

As a general rule, if the mainstream media is discussed on RWN, they’re being beaten like a bongo drum at…..ehr, somewhere they hit bongo drums a lot. But, for once, let me single out an article for praise. It’s a piece by James Healy at USA Today. Here’s the key excerpt: “A hefty 42% of […]

One of the things that the Democratic Party seems to perpetually be trying to do is reach out to religious Americans. Unfortunately, they usually don’t have much luck because they treat religious people like robots who’ll respond to the right piece of code. It’s like, “Well, if we show up in a few churches right […]

Mike Bouchard, who’s running against Debbie Stabenow in Michigan, has put together a video pitch to encourage people to give to him through Rightroots. We’re down to 36 hours to go on the 15 day challenge. If you haven’t chipped in yet — or even if you have — it would really help us out […]

Beth over at My Vast Wing Conspiracy, (a blog that I like, by the way) took great offense at part of the Blogger Boobygate! post yesterday, in which I said that there was nothing wrong with women using their looks to draw traffic. Here’s some of Beth’s furious diatribe: “You know, I don’t get emotional […]

Here’s the eeeeeevvvvviiiiiiilllllllll “torture” that John McCain, Andrew Sullivan, Ted Kennedy, & Company think is just too cruel to be used on terrorists who saw the heads off of Americans and support flying planes into our buildings: “The techniques sought by the CIA are: induced hypothermia; forcing suspects to stand for prolonged periods; sleep deprivation; […]

“In late 2000, even as the result of the presidential election was still being contested in court, George W. Bush’s chief pollster Matt Dowd was writing a memo for Rove that would reach a surprising conclusion. Based on a detailed examination of poll data from the previous two decades, Dowd’s memo argued that the percentage […]

“There’s a great amount of odious liberal condescension at work here. No matter how many times Jihadists say “We are killing you because Allah commands it,” liberals keep saying back, “Oh, pish-posh. We know what’s really driving you — a need for more day-care and infrastructure development.” Don’t liberals believe in actually listening to the […]

I’m not sure that there could possibly be a dumber argument for coddling terrorists than the one made by Lindsey Graham, who, as per usual, is playing Robin to John McCain’s Batman, this time on the interrogation of terrorists. Here’s Graham: “Weakening the Geneva Convention protections is an unnecessary step and will put our military […]

Including today, we’ve got 3 days left on the Rightroots 15 day challenge. So far, during the challenge, we’ve raised almost $40,000 for our candidates, but we’re still short of our 100 donations per candidate goal. Can we hit it? Absolutely. We just need about 790 more donations to make it, which isn’t as much […]

It all started when a group of liberal bloggers got to meet with Bill Clinton. Ann Althouse, like many people, couldn’t help but notice that the girl directly in front of Bubba was attractive, pushing her perky ta-tas out, and — as a side note — it looks like Bill is trying to decide whether […]

“I saw this while driving down 3rd Ave. here in Huntington, W.Va. For some reason I thought even the liberals in this city were intelligent enough not to spew this kind of filth. Not only is it not below them, they’re spray-painting it. If ever you were thinking “Maybe leftists don’t hate America after all” […]

Do illegal immigrants depress wages for American workers? You better believe it. Just in case you need convincing, here’s a little proof. “Since the mid-1990s, Stillmore has grown dependent on the paychecks of Mexican workers who originally came for seasonal farm labor, picking the area’s famous Vidalia onions. Many then took year-round jobs at the […]

This is mildly disconcerting: “According to a new report put out by the German Statistics Office, Germans have the most pessimistic view of the future among all Europeans.

Question: “How do you see the next two years in politics breaking down if the Democrats do manage to take back one or both Houses of Congress in November? With Bush’s poll numbers as low as they are right now, qualifying him as a near lame-duck already, would anything really be that different? Is anything […]

Question: “Do you think that John McCain’ sensitivty to “torture” by our government is driven by the fact that he was REALLY tortured by the Viet Cong?

Question: Do you think pro wrestling will be able to make its typical cyclical comeback into the mainstream as it did in the mid 80’s and 90’s?
