Why I Am Not a Neo-Conservative

When George Bush launched the military campaign to remove Saddam Hussein and enforce Security Council resolution 1441 and sixteen other Security Council resolutions he had defied, I was for it. I would be for it today. It was a necessary war and a just war. By toppling a monster who had defied international order and […]

Why Would We Expect The Children Of Illegal Immigrants To Like America?

As per usual, when liberals hear something that challenges them or makes them uncomfortable, they reflexively try to shut down the discussion: An Arizona state senator has set off a hot debate over racism and taxpayer-funded education of illegal immigrants with her public reading of a constituent letter that said most Hispanic students “hate America.” […]

RWN Redesign In Process

As you may have noticed, RWN has a new look. As you also may have noticed, the new look is hosed in a few places. There have been a few unexpected difficulties that are hurting the design roll-out. I am going to be spending much of the rest of the night working to get those […]

Packing Up for Texas

Wisconsin Democrats trying to block the democratic process on behalf of the insatiably greedy public sector unions that own them aren’t the last state senators to leave their state behind. While they saw fit to hide in the Land of Lincoln, others want out of it: Roger Keats, a former Illinois state senator and Cook […]

Hugo Chavez: Capitalism Ended Life on Mars

No wonder Comrade Obama has essentially pulled the plug on NASA, reducing it to a propaganda ministry devoted to publicizing the ancient scientific achievements of Muslims. He just wanted to stop the genocide. His pal Hugo Chavez reveals that capitalism may have snuffed out life on Mars: “I have always said, heard, that it would […]

Again. Consistency

I know in my last entry on a consistent Democrat (or Republican) I got a lot of you saying, “Yeah, consistently looney.” But, there is something I admire in people who don’t let party or politics set their belief system. I give you Cindy Sheehan: (emphasis mine) An Open Letter to War Loving (Democratic/Republican) Frauds […]

John Boehner Adamant About Not ‘Shutting Down Government’

RedCounty.com recently re-launched with an enhanced platform and as part of the relaunch, Chip Hanlon has been featuring a multipart interview with Speaker of the House John Boehner (R, OH). Today’s part two segment features the Speaker adamantly refusing to allow any government shut down and saying he will work hard to keep government open. […]

So Was It A Mistake, Reichert?

You can’t always tell who happens to be a budget hawk by how they vote, which is strange for Congress. I mean, they’re whole job is voting, right? Yet, when it comes to hearing what they say and watching what they do, you can notice some distinct departures. Back at the beginning of may, for […]

What, Exactly, Is The “Obama Doctrine”?

Does anybody know? Does Obama? What is it? Over at the Politico, Leonard Nimoy Glenn Thrush is In search of the ‘Obama Doctrine’ At a briefing for reporters last Saturday as U.S. Tomahawks missiles slammed into the Libyan coast, a top aide to President Barack Obama was asked to define the “Obama doctrine” to explain […]

George Monbiot Goes Sane on Nuclear Power

Maybe radiation leaked from the Fukushima plant rode the air currents to the far side of the world, where it caused a mutation in George Monbiot’s brain. It would be strange enough if he grew gills or an eye on his forehead, but this is downright bizarre. The ultra-left Guardian scribbler whose very name means […]

Obama’s Energy Policy: Outsource the Industry to Brazil

Unfortunately it looks like Comrade Obama has been doing more down there in Rio than sipping fruity drinks out of coconut shells while he off-handedly commits us to a third simultaneous war. If you think outsourcing is bad now, wait until our post-American president is done exporting what’s left of our energy sector: Now, with […]

Climate Alarmists Wonder If UK Green Week Is Green Wash

Face it, alarmists, you created the following situation. You’ve all mostly been about “spreading awareness”, getting others to change their behavior, yet rarely actually Doing Something themselves. And now some are finally wondering if it is all bunk David Cameron, the Prime Minister, has described it as the big green society in action, but is […]

The Compliments Just Keep Pouring In For Obama In Libya

Aren’t we lucky to have a President who’s so wise and so beloved by the world to handle our war with Libya? Why, just look at how fantastic the reviews have been so far! Indiscriminate bombing. Who gave those countries the right? Neither the United States, nor France, nor England, nor any country has the […]

7 Questions For Liberals About Obama’s Libyan War

It seems like it was just yesterday when we had an “imperialist warmonger” in the White House who was going to be replaced by a peace-loving Democrat who promised “hope” and “change” instead. It’s funny how that worked out, isn’t it? We still have troops in Iraq, we’ve escalated the war in Afghanistan, and now […]

Gaddafi Forgives Obama for Throwing Him Under the Bus

To prop up a deteriorating public image, Barack Hussein Obama has been forced to throw yet another ally under the bus. But Muammar Gaddafi, a friend of the anti-American clique that produced the Manchurian Moonbat, forgives the treachery. Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi sent a message to the US President defending his decision to attack the […]

US Taxpayer Money to Be Showered Upon Anti-American BBC

What could be worse than Big Government financing snobby left-wing propaganda services like NPR and PBS with money forcibly extracted from American taxpayers? Only one thing: using our money to finance snobby left-wing propaganda services in other countries: The BBC World Service is to receive a “significant” sum of money from the US government to […]

Chicago’s Most Notorious Priest Finally On Way Out?

Father Michael Pfleger is as far from the image of a parish priest as can be imagined without crossing the line into absurdity. He is a loud-mouthed activist that has spent a 30-year career calling people he doesn’t like names, spewing race tinged “sermons,” liberally tossing out the race card, and engaging in extremist political […]

Oh, Noes, Globull Warming Caused Rising Seas Threaten New Jersey

And the answer to stopping climate change raising the water levels is to….well, talk about it, spread awareness, and, well, that’s it While the economy may be the most immediate issue, climate change is on our doorstep, said Melanie Reding, education coordinator for the Jacques Cousteau Coastal Education Center in Little Egg Harbor. Reding spoke […]

How Did Obama Squander The Goodwill Of The World In Libya?

Remember when nations across the world were kvetching about America after we invaded Iraq? What was it that libs said? “How did Bush squander the sympathy of the world after 9/11?” We tried to tell them the truth. Nobody squandered anything. The world’s just full of greedy, self-centered people who want America to do all […]
