New projections by the Congressional Budget Office show that this could be a record year for federal tax revenue – according to the CBO, the federal government should be bringing in $2.7 TRILLION this year, an all-time record.: At first blush, one would think this is good news, and a vindication of President Obama’s “balanced […]
New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg’s media group has apologized for its February 21 cover of Bloomberg Businessweek over complaints that it used racist imagery to illustrate the feature story on the housing market. With a title of “The Great American Housing Rebound: Flips. No-look bids. 300 percent returns. What could possibly go wrong?,” the cover […]
Having allowed their moonbat rulers to disarm them, Britons cannot employ firearms to defend themselves against an ongoing epidemic of lawlessness. No matter; they have a much nicer means to fight crime: Hundreds of pom-poms and knitted items have been strung from trees and lampposts to help reduce the fear of crime in an area […]
Well, the editorial board doesn’t specifically call the climate astrologers idiots, but, it’s implies it Environmentalists are fighting the wrong battles Really, they’ve been fighting the wrong battles for over 20 years. Instead of dealing with real environmental issues and wisely pushing for cost effective alternative energy, they’ve been hysterical and wrapping every real issue […]
The real war on women (The Blaze) Rape survivor Amanda Collins bravely spoke about her horrific attack during a Monday legislative hearing concerning Colorado’s proposed ban on concealed firearms on college campuses. She explained how she wished she would’ve had a firearm to defend herself from her rapist, which could have possibly prevented the attack […]
When it comes to discussing ways in which we can curb gun violence, listening to Chicago politicians posture and lecture America on the means in which we can produce safer streets is like listening to Michael Moore instruct us on diet tips or Jane Fonda praise the virtue of patriotism. Surely such irony cannot be […]
Back in my teaching days, many years ago, one of the things I liked to ask the class to consider was this: Imagine a government agency with only two tasks: (1) building statues of Benedict Arnold and (2) providing life-saving medications to children. If this agency’s budget were cut, what would it do? The answer, […]
“I’m not a gun owner and, as I think as is the case for the more than half the people in the country who also aren’t gun owners, that means that for me guns are alien. In the current rhetorical climate people seem not to want to say: I think guns are kind of scary […]

In the previous two columns, I highlighted the first seven of the top 10 reasons I wish George Washington were still alive: 10) Washington was a role model for many, even as a youth. 9) Washington epitomized courage. 8) Washington wasn’t afraid of public opinion or challenging the status quo. 7) Washington was a man […]
Is it possible that Obama’s arrogance, personal pettiness, sanctimoniousness and egotism (for starters) could finally be his unraveling? Even the liberal media are starting to notice, but will it last? Up to this point, they’ve dutifully played along with his Alinskyite tactics — converting the office of the presidency into a headquarters for community organizing […]
DENNIS PRAGER: Are you in Copenhagen as we speak? LARS HEDEGAARD: I can’t really tell you where I am at the moment. DP: Can you tell me what country? LH: I’m in Europe somewhere. DP: The reason you can’t tell is that there was an attempt to murder you just a few weeks ago. A […]
“President Obama has been among the most merciless presidents in the history of the United States,” political science professor P.S. Ruckman wrote on his blog, “Pardon Power,” over the weekend. The president had just issued 17 pardons — the first pardons of his second term. That’s merciful, right? Except that though Obama rightly used his […]
The President’s history of negotiations with Republicans has led to the remarkable feet of making Washington DC even more dysfunctional. The President has behaved as if the country is split roughly 80-20 in his favor. Through his negotiations and public pronouncements he has exploited every opportunity where he has had even the slightest advantage. This […]
The State Department has released its much-anticipated report on the environmental impact of the Keystone Pipeline and, to the alarm of the green lobby, it seems to leave President Obama with little reason to continue delaying construction. The 2,000-page report makes no final recommendation on whether or not to approve construction of the energy project, […]
Jeb Bush, the outspoken former Florida Governor, isn’t ready to confirm any 2016 bid; instead he is more focused on doing what he is best known for, being an ideas man who gets results. “I have a voice, I want to share my beliefs about how the conservative movement and the Republican Party can regain […]
Lost in the “homophobia” smoke is just how radically liberal masterminds are attempting to transform society to conform to their warped ideology. Not even the concept of motherhood is safe: The Obama Justice Department is arguing in the United States Supreme Court that children do not need mothers. The Justice Department’s argument on the superfluity […]
Pretty much everyone, including all of the major labor unions, is geeked about the Keystone Pipeline, which would create jobs and improve the United State’s energy independence. But a bunch of hippies hate it, and the hippies vote, probably illegally in seven states, so Barack Obama is totally against it for right now, you guys. […]
A random act of journalism from the Washington Post Back in the crack-infused 1980s, young men with guns and drugs ruled the single block of Hanover Place NW. People who lived in the two-story rowhouses one mile north of the Capitol fell asleep year round to the sounds of the Fourth of July, a pop-pop-pop […]
Sheesh, more facts get in the way of Obama’s dependence on raising taxes on “the rich” (has he sent a check to the IRS yet?) (The Blaze) How will households at different income levels pay federal income, payroll, corporate and estate taxes for 2013? Despite claims that those at the top aren’t paying their “fair […]
When do Americans say, “enough is enough,” stop accepting this sort of stupidity as part of modern living and start firing the people responsible? A 7-year-old Maryland boy was suspended from school for two days for shaping a breakfast pastry into what his teacher thought looked like a gun, according to his father. FoxBaltimore.com reports […]
The most forwarded images from the Right Wing News Facebook Page for February, in order.
“When you get mugged, there are certain rules you must follow,” my friend and his wife explained to me as we walked from a Washington, D.C., pub to their condo. “When I get mugged?” “Muggers are polite when you follow their instructions, but they get surly when you are rude,” said his wife. “How can […]
Do we have a president or a perpetual candidate? It’s not an entirely unfair question. Even as Barack Obama was warning of the dreadful consequences of the budget sequester looming on March 1, he spent days away from Washington, apparently out of touch with Democratic as well as Republican congressional leaders. In the meantime, Obama […]
