How is this possible? : He KILLED someone. : His : victim was only 20 years old. : And he gets 10 years? : That’s insane: After 17 months of waiting, a family finally learned how much time the man who killed their son will be in prison.

Finally, some good news! The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals struck down California’s concealed-weapons requirements, saying they were too strict to be Constitutional. California requires concealed-carry applicants to show “good cause” for wanting a permit beyond self-defense…whatever that means. The 2-1 ruling of a three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said […]
You know Democrats are in trouble when they start flat-out asking the IRS to harass conservative groups raising money for their opponents. Of course, they don’t frame it that way. Senate Democrats facing tough elections this year want the Internal Revenue Service to play a more aggressive role in regulating outside groups expected to spend […]
There’s no such thing as “abuse free” child pornography–on that, reasonable people agree. Still, a Spanish ad company was stupid enough to put up billboards for child porn at bus stops. The pervs in this case found a creative way to skirt child pornography laws: JCDecaux, the advertising firm that maintains billboards at the bus […]
By: Terresa Monroe-Hamilton NoisyRoom.net For now we see through a glass, darkly the liaison between Russia and Iran that I have written at length on. As the faux interim nuclear deal between Iran and the world takes effect, Iran is cozying up to Mother Russia and suggesting joint military exercises. How long do we let […]
The US Constitution isn’t the only centuries-old pillar of tradition that has become outmoded in the Age of Moonbattery Triumphant. Another is the Hippocratic Oath. Swearing to do no harm doesn’t make much sense in a society that regards killing inconvenient children as protecting women’s health. Taxpayer-subsidized NPR swings an axe into the concept that […]
Not only are Democrats doubling down on their use of the IRS as a political weapon, they aren’t even bothering to try to make it look good by scapegoating a few token left-wing outfits. An astonishingly arrogant 100% of 501(c)(4) groups targeted for audit are conservative, according to House Ways and Means Chairman Dave Camp […]
There always has to be one goofball out there hatin’ on our national holidays, doesn’t there? This time it is hate for Valentines Day and on the flimsiest, most ridiculous reasoning: it is an “environmental travesty.” For the left-wing New Republic, columnist Jeffrey Ball was first out of the chute to slam Valentines Day with […]
Perhaps keeping the schools open in Wisconsin during a massive snow storm would be OK (well, not really, not in today’s litigious and uber-safety conscious society. Perhaps 20-30 years ago), but NYC? Not so much. Hey, you voted for this hard-core Leftists, New Yorkers, so this is on you (USA Today) As New Yorkers struggled […]

When a lion wants to go somewhere, he doesn’t worry about how many hyenas are in the way. pic.twitter.com/AOojK3y97S – John Hawkins (@johnhawkinsrwn) January 22, 2014 Shouldn’t there be massive income inequality between someone with rare skills who works 70 hours a week & an unskilled part time worker? – John Hawkins (@johnhawkinsrwn) January […]

On Feb. 17, 2009, President Obama promised the sun and the moon and the stars. That was the day, five years ago, when he signed the $800 billion “American Recovery and Reinvestment Act.” President Modesty called it “the most sweeping economic recovery package in our history.” He promised “unprecedented transparency and accountability.” He claimed the […]
Hannah Arendt coined the term “the banality of evil” to describe the galling normalcy of Nazi mass murderer Adolf Eichmann. Covering his trial in Jerusalem, she described Eichmann as less a cartoonish villain than a dull, remorseless, paper-pushing functionary just “doing his job.” The phrase “banality of evil” was instantly controversial, largely because it was […]
Recently, I saw a Photoshopped depiction of Charles Manson next to an unborn baby, and the caption suggested that liberals are more interested in protecting Manson than they are the baby. It got me to thinking. Yes, it got me to thinking about the absurd positions modern liberals hold, which wouldn’t be nearly so disturbing […]

Few have ever heard the name Debo Adegbile. He’s President Barack Obama’s nominee to head the civil rights division of the Justice Department. A few months ago, his nomination would have been a non-starter — there is more than a whiff of radicalism in his past. But we are in a new world. Sen. Harry […]
The big story about the federal budget this week was the Republican Party’s struggle to deal with raising the debt ceiling. Last year’s big budget story was President Barack Obama and the Democrats coming to grips with the so-called sequester, a policy gimmick that modestly slowed the growth of federal spending. Neither of these storylines […]
Who does Al Roker think he is, Bill O’Reilly?: This is a rare occasion I’m siding with Bill de Blasio for keeping he schools open.: And it’s not because de Blasio needs my defense.: It’s purely selfish on my part.: I had to go to school in weather worse than this in the late 60s […]
It worked before. It would work again: Utah Republican Sen. Mike Lee is trying to get more work into welfare. On Wednesday, Lee introduced a bill that would restore the monthly work requirements for food stamps that President Obama suspended in 2009 with the stimulus. Lee’s legislation will also attempt to get control over welfare […]
It’s not racist because the victim was white and the attackers were black, so, yeah: Weasel Zippers points out: Reverse this situation and you’d have endless marches by Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson demanding “justice.” Now consider this: people like Sharpton and Jackson and other liberal knuckleheads don’t think this is racist because minorities can’t […]
The Mississippi House passed three gun laws Tuesday which should, in theory, keep the government from seizing firearms during a state emergency. : In theory… The House on Tuesday passed a trio of gun-rights bills – one to prevent local governments from buying guns to destroy them, another to make clear local governments can’t seize guns […]
The last time we had an “American Queen” in the Whitehouse was with First Lady Jacquie Kennedy. She was aptly named because America was captivated by her beauty and grace and style (I assume all paid for out of Kennedy family funds) that was reminiscent of the demeanor of a queen of Europe. The news […]
by: Anna Maria Hoffman: Not too long ago, we received a great question from one of our readers named Thomas. His question addresses the different factions in the GOP and the importance of uniting on principle to achieve victory this year and in 2016. I firmly believe that the many different factions on the right side […]
We all know that Obama has been abusing his power as President, trying to push his policies on Americans through backdoor means and subverting the legislative process, but what did Obama think of the penchant of presidents to extend executive power when he ran for president in 2008? Well he was against it for George […]
