CHURCHVILLE–VA: The New York Times marvels editorially that none of the Republicans running for the Senate accept the “scientific consensus that humans are largely responsible for global warming.” Maybe that’s because the Republicans come from more rural (Red) states that haven’t had any warming–man-made or otherwise. My colleague Ed Long, formerly a NASA physicist, has […]
A desperate Harry Reid, facing defeat at the hands of countermoonbat Sharron Angle, has probably been hoping for an October surprise — but not this one: An aide to Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid repeatedly lied to federal immigration and FBI agents and submitted false federal documents to the Department of Homeland Security to cover […]
Election day is a week away, but the Democrat shenanigans are already well underway. What else would you expect from a desperate Dingy Harry if not this: Some voters in Boulder City [Nevada] complained on Monday that their ballot had been cast before they went to the polls, raising questions about Clark County’s electronic voting […]
We only have a week to go until elections. If you are wondering about our (GOP) chances in Congress, I think Charlie Cook does a good job of predicting. In the Senate, Cook puts the “over-under” at eight seats. We can hope for more, but that’s at the very least what I think we will […]
When it is conservative groups doing it, that is There are always concerns about voter fraud on Election Day, but this year many new groups are popping up to keep an eye on the polls. That, in turn, has some people worried that legitimate voters will be intimidated and discouraged from voting. Along with all […]
Every once in a while one must risk breaching decorum and call a spade a spade. In this case sentient people cannot avoid affirming the stark truth that former President Jimmy Carter is one of the world’s greatest liars. This melodious storyteller’s latest misconstruction of the truth comes from the Deseret News of Salt Lake […]
This MSNBC/AP article focuses on the consequences of GOP state control vis a vis the upcoming redistricting, which could turn nasty, particularly with several states, including New York, Ohio, and Pennsylvania, and several other Northern states, losing Congressional House seats, moved to mostly Southern states. Lost in the redistricting shuffle (which all of a sudden […]
Shock videographer James O’Keefe has released video of New Jersey teachers union members bragging that it is nearly impossible for them to be fired by the state. Daily Caller reports: In one video, Alissa Ploshnick, who is identified as a special educator at Passaic Public Schools, seems to verify the worst suspicions of education reformers. […]
Originally posted at David Horowitz’s NewsReal: The two latest examples of Democrat ineptitude, incompetence and total math fail come to us from none other than Nancy Pelosi (the best speaker of the house EVAH): and Joe “doll hair” Biden. First up is Nancy Pelosi with both bad math and shameless lies. As Ben Domenech points […]
There are certain people it’s particularly wise to avoid conflict with — at least until you don’t need them anymore. For example, you never want to mouth off to your barber before he cuts your hair. It’s also wise to be extremely polite to your waitress before she brings you your food. The last thing […]
Last night at the Rand Paul vs. Jack Conway debate, a couple of extremely unfortunate incidents occurred. The worst of the two involved a Move-On member who wanted to present Rand Paul with some silly made-up award. This didn’t sit well with some crazies who were attending the event and not only was she wrestled […]
For too long, conservatives have allowed the misogynistic party of Bill Clinton to portray itself as “the party of women.” But when even the National Organization of Women approves of sexual harassment as long as it’s done by Democrats and refers to Republican women like Meg Whitman as whores, the time is ripe for a […]
Glenn Beck made a good observation the other day comparing radical Leftist billionaire George Soros to Orson Welles’ iconic character Charles Foster Kane, who was based on Yellow Journalist William Randolph Hearst. Soros, who gave almost two million dollars to NPR, can be viewed as a driving factor for the organizations many questionable moves; the […]
Germany in the 1920’s did not “invent” Hyperinflation, they just made it famous. Hyperinflation was first systematically: documented in Germany. The currency on the left is a relic: from the Weinmar Republic. It was originally: a 1,000 Mark currency note, but: because of inflation, it was re-stamped to make it 1,000,000 Marks. You see: inflation […]
Liberals love the word “sustainable.” However, the mess they’ve made of California is anything but: California, which has the largest U.S. public-pension fund, faces liabilities that may exceed its annual state-tax revenue fivefold within two years unless lawmakers rein in benefits, according to a study. To keep their promises to retirees, the California Public Employees […]
Prominent on the long list of dirty tricks Democrats have been resorting to in an attempt to avoid taking their medicine on November 2 is backing third party spoilers: Seeking any advantage in their effort to retain control of Congress, Democrats are working behind the scenes in a number of tight races to bolster long-shot […]
Five U.S. Presidents have gone to Yale, including four of the last six. More presidents attended Harvard than any other college. Interestingly, the best President in my lifetime, Ronald Reagan, the one President who really understood the constitution and our liberty, went to Eureka College. Eureka College is a small residential liberal arts college Many […]
Last week I spied a short piece at Illinois Review about a post on My Suburban Life that detailed the story of a left-wing teacher that was shocked that a majority of her students in DuPage County, Illinois voted for Republican Representative Peter Roskam in the school’s mock election. Social studies teacher Lori Keough of […]
We also get a view over how the Democrats will frame their argument for the next two years as the minority party in at least the House With Election Day still a week away, Democrats are previewing what promises to be a main line of argument if Republicans make strong gains in Congress: Conservatives bought […]
While introducing Democrat Gubernatorial candidate Pat Quinn at a West Side get-out-the-vote rally held at the New Tabernacle of Faith Baptist Church State Senator Ricky Hendon decided the pulpit was a good place from which to indulge his inner racist. The Chicago Trib notes that Hendon started calling Bill Brady all manner of names as […]
One has to wonder whether this trial balloon comes from the administration, or the Associated Press. Either way, if Obama gives the deficit the same attention he gave jobs creation, it’ll balloon even more Preparing for political life after a bruising election, President Barack Obama will put greater emphasis on fiscal discipline, a nod to […]
In the crooks and liars department …
If the CIA had done its job and killed Julian Assange, there probably wouldn’t have been a huge new WikiLeaks document dump that may get even more Iraqis murdered for the terrible crime of helping the United States. Still, the info is out there and one surprising development has been how many liberals are now […]
Dave Weigel over at Slate has done a great piece on an academic conference at Berkeley. What was it about? They call it the “Tea Party Conference.” A bunch of Berkeleyites trying to figure out Tea Partiers? It was every bit as much of a hot mess as you’d imagine. Let’s get started with an […]
As you read these run-downs, keep in mind that a lot of movement is still possible in the final week. Voters are now going to be fully engaged, the campaigns are spending the last of their war chests on ads, and the ground game is just starting to roll. Look for RWN’s final analysis on […]

Go ask him why. Link. Link. Link. Previously: This Week in Automotivators, September 27-October 3 This Week in Automotivators, […]
We all know who the Big $$pender is … Here’s a little tune to sing on the way to the polls. Just make sure you take your billy clubs (oops! Sorry, wrong audience.) I mean your boas ;) For other episodes of the show, a “backstage pass” and to download songs go to – http://www.restrainednomore.com/
We’re not allowed to discuss it in polite company, but the dirty secret of anti-discrimination law is that it violates free choice, as well as the very civil rights it is ostensibly designed to protect. Take the case of a Michigan woman who advertised for a roommate with whom she would be compatible.: Specifically, she […]
Believe it or not, in an act of near heroic intellectual prestidigitation, I’m going to explain to you how Little Women, housekeeping, socialism and capitalism are all related. Or at least I’m going to try. Here goes: One of my all time least favorite movies is the 1994 version of Little Women. It is a […]
The conventional wisdom among the denizens of the left is that George W. Bush took a surplus and destroyed the economy in only eight short years. The following illustrated story shows just how he pulled off this difficult task. In 1997 President Clinton’s HUD secretary, a man named Andrew Cuomo, claimed Fannie Mae had exhibited […]
