Stand Up, Speak Out, Fight Back!

The Tucson massacre provides arch-Tory Peter Hitchens an excuse to stick his thumb in the eye of libertarians: The most likely cause is Loughner’s daily cannabis-smoking habit. The link between this drug and serious mental illness grows clearer every day. Wickedly, the dope lobby still tries to deny this and seeks to legalise it. Loughner […]
I’m so excited. This is something we have all been dying for! Welcome to TreeShagger, our new column on green dating. If you’ve got dating issues you want us to address in future columns, drop us a line. Um, TreeShagger? Seriously? You’re having sex with trees? No one knows what tempeh is. Seriously. Except for […]
Most insiders know that Joe Scarborough, hired to be Politico’s token conservative, is anything but. At one point, he may have been a Reagan Republican, but, since starting work at MSNBC, he has slowly moved further and further to the left, as the station did. But, Joe has some un-civil words for those on the […]
One of the things you’ll learn in dealing with the professional Left is that they have absolutely no ethics whatsoever when it comes to dealing with conservatives. They’re perfectly content to smear us, lie about us, or silence us in any way that they can get away with. It’s very much an “end justifies the […]
Liberalism In 120 Seconds: Why Do Liberals Want High Gas Prices?
Since Jared Lee Loughner went on his rampage in Tucson, we’ve been treated to perfectly ridiculous liberal howling about “violent rhetoric.” The reason it’s “perfectly ridiculous” is that “liberals being liberals,” they’ve tackled the whole debate in such a politically correct manner that it makes the debate laughable. According to liberals, what words supposedly incite […]
When I first started blogging I had this MLK quote at the top of my blog: “A man who won’t die for something is not fit to live.” I loved that quote because it defined to me what living a life dedicated to making the world a better place means. It’s about believing in what […]
According to the moonbats rewriting history for Time magazine, the sinking of the Lusitania, which helped bring the USA into World War I, does not qualify as one of the all-time top 10 clashes at sea. Neither does the sinking of the Bismarck, which was key to establishing Allied naval superiority in World War II. […]
Until recently, Canada was considered part of the free world. But then political correctness got completely out of control: The Quebec Human Rights Tribunal has ordered a Montreal man to pay his gay neighbours $12,000 for allegedly subjecting them to “homophobic comments,” death threats and invitations to fight, even though he was acquitted of the […]
Radio talker Rush Limbaugh got in dutch with Fox News commentator Charles Krauthammer for saying that Obama supporters were “slobbering” over his address at the pep rally/memorial sponsored by the University of Arizona for those fallen in the Arizona shooting. But “slobbering” is nothing compared to historian Douglas Brinkley’s hyperbolic praise. Brinkley absurdly said that […]
Bobby Rush always did have a lot of stones. He went from being an outlaw and criminal member of the Black Panthers in Chicago to being a legitimate, elected Congressman from the self-same city. Now Rush is hiding behind both the crime in Arizona and Martin Luther Kin, Jr. in order to push his anti-constitutional […]
Again, there is nothing wrong with environmentalism, and being environmentally conscious. Yet, have you ever noticed that so many of the self-proclaimed environmental champions always take it about 5 steps too far, and drift into La La Land? Case in point: Reflections on community gardens and the legacy of MLK Note: This is a version […]
Kimberly Kindy and Phillip Rucker prove one again why Prozac should be mandatory in all Liberal news rooms, and that mommy and daddy should be kept around so that the reporters read all their homework, not just the stuff they agree with. This really reads more like it was written in the moonbat-o-sphere: Giffords’s border […]
Over at the Telegraph, Jenny McCartney talks about something I’ve been thinking about lately, In the years since the Second World War, the bulk of us have gradually become accustomed to the steady decline of personal risk. The absence of war on our soil, the advances of medicine, and the extensive establishment of a “health […]
If you can’t afford it, you don’t deserve it. — Anonymous At the age of 20, we don’t care what the world thinks of us; at 30, we worry about what it is thinking of us; at 40, we discover that it wasn’t thinking of us at all. — Anonymous The secret to happiness at […]
(This is a yearly article I do that I forgot to get around to before now. Still, it needs to be done as a thank you to all the people that linked me last year.) Here are RWN’s top referrers for 2010 (No search engines, social networks, traffic trade services included). Feel free to go […]
Bon Voyage and Happy New Year, California Governor Jerry Brown!:
Lots of news this weekend : from the Stuxnet cyberwarfront.: It is a fiendishly wonderful mind-picture to imagine Mahmoud Ahmadinejad screaming and stomping and pulling out his hair over computer control machines: that look like congealed “S’mores”???
I’ve been taking a break from blogging the left’s blood libel. And I’ll tell you, Britney Spears looks phenomenal in her new video clip: “Britney Spears – ‘Hold It Against Me’ – Rule 5.” That said, I think Saberpoint says it well, “Moving On“: The Left is more than ruthless, they are evil. They seek […]
Kudos to the Arizona Republic for this follow-up reporting: Loughner began fixating on a documentary: “Zeitgeist: The Movie.” The movie is a bramble of conspiracy theories involving Sept. 11, the international monetary system, and Christianity. “There are people guiding your life and you don’t even know it,” the trailer for the movie intones. “He wanted […]
[H/T Toby Toons for the image.] This past week in the wake of the shooting of Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords by Jared Lee Loughner (that killed six people and wounded nine others–including the congresswoman), the mainstream/liberal media instantly pounced on “the violent rhetoric” by Sarah Palin and the Tea Party as the cause of Loughner’s mad […]
The new Miss America Pageant winner, Cornhusker Teresa Scanlan, wowed judges with her black bikini, her piano playing, and her silky blond hair. She’s the youngest winner ever at 17, her theme this year was eating disorders, and she also criticized WikiLeaks as “espionage.” Scanlon said that she wanted to become a lawyer because she […]

We hear all the dire warnings, we read all the unhinged predictions, and they tell us we need to spend money hand over fist to stop global warming, er, climate change, um, sudden climate disruption, oh, whatever they are calling it today. Nowadays, they tell is globull warming will cause it to get high, cold, […]
It is time for Sarah Palin to sit quietly for awhile, at least a few weeks, and let others defend her. It is time for her to let things “settle” in Tucson, because the shooting had nothing to do with her.
Something ELSE the Chinese do better….. : The world’s longest over-water bridge has just been completed by the Chinese……IN FOUR YEARS….for $11.1 billion. Now let’s compare the Chinese bridge-building acumen to the very best that America has to offer in bridge-building right now:: : The shameful, obscenely-expensive replacement of the east span of the San Francisco Bay […]
From Nile Gardiner, at Telegraph UK, “A Shameful Week for America’s Liberal Elites“: This has been a hugely shameful week for sections of the American Left, who have exploited a horrific tragedy that claimed six lives, in order to advance political attacks upon some leading conservative politicians and media commentators, as well as an entire […]
UPDATE BELOW…One would think that once you were the collateral damage of an assassination attempt, you’d be much less apt to be issuing death threats of your own to people. Sadly, shooting victim J. Eric Fuller was not so sensitive as one might think his experience would make him. At a townhall meeting Saturday, an […]
Escape to Wisconsin! Once, that phrase was a beloved Wisconsin bumper sticker, looking to goad tourists into the Badger State. Feel-good, scaredy-cat “progressivism” did away with that, though: what were we doing, after all, inviting escaped prisoners and other lawbreakers to lose themselves in our state! But today, the phrase has re-emerged. Not as a […]
To the proponents of the radical homosexual agenda tolerance only goes one way. We must tolerate them, or else. As for their tolerance toward others, not so much. The latest target of their ire is Chick-Fil-A. The restaurant chain is under fire because, horror of horrors, a single local franchisee promised to donate some sandwiches […]
