CHURCHVILLE, VA — 3 Billion and Counting is a new documentary film on the awful human cost of banning DDT. The film’s producer, medical doctor Rutledge Taylor, circled the tropical world, finding that malaria has claimed some three billion human lives throughout history–and the toll of needless deaths is continuing to mount by perhaps 1.5 […]
I got a message for Sean Penn — maybe he ain’t see me in Haiti because he was too busy sniffing cocaine. — Wyclef Jean That’s the new Kenyan, Larry. And Kenyan, of course, was code for n*****. But that’s where they are. They can’t say it out loud. But that’s where this whole campaign […]
Albert L. Reeves, Jr. was the last Republican Congressman in Missouri’s 5th District. He left office in 1949. For over 60 years, Democrats have had a stranglehold on the seat. It’s now held by the far left, Castro praising, Emmanuel Cleaver. Jacob Turk hopes to change that in November. Turk is a Marine currently not […]
Via Fox News: From the administration that brought you “man-caused disaster” and “overseas contingency operation,” another terminology change is in the pipeline. The White House wants the public to start using the term “global climate disruption” in place of “global warming” — fearing the latter term oversimplifies the problem and makes it sound less dangerous […]
She’s at it again, telling you what to eat Taking her campaign against obesity before the Congressional Black Caucus, First Lady Michelle Obama said childhood obesity had become a national epidemic and was particularly bad in black communities. Obama drew laughter from the black legislators in D.C. when she said, “We all need to start […]
The Politico calls this an “election agenda,” but, as reported by The Hill, this is more of a governing effort. Regardless, if they put it in writing, they better be willing to actually stick to it House Republicans are planning to roll out their election agenda over the next two weeks as they seek to […]
As I did at the Kansas City Tea Party, I had my Flip at the 9/12 March on Washington and asked the marchers why they were there. Combined with select portions of some of the speeches, I was able to make this video. I hope you enjoy it: Cross posted at All American Blogger.
Conservatives should be proud of what we’ve accomplished so far. We fought city hall, we spoke the truth to power, we did what we could. But, let’s face it: We knew the Democrats weren’t just going to sit there and take it. We knew they were going to fight back. Yesterday, like an ominous, dark […]
The very responsible, level headed, non-partisan New York Times wrote an article encouraging Americans to give those scandalous Tea Party ruffians what-for at the ballot box by voting down their candidates. In the article, they referred to Tea Partiers as the, “new fringe in American politics,” accused them of having the “basest political instincts,” said […]
It’s time for me to rank my favorite blogs for the 3rd quarter of 2010. Do keep in mind that as the quarter has progressed, some blogs have, of course, moved up and others have dropped, based on how often I visit them, how much I like what I see when I get there, how […]
Apparently the lot of Michelle Antoinette is tougher than we peasants realize. Michelle Obama thinks being America’s First Lady is ‘hell’, Carla Bruni reveals today in a wildly indiscreet book. Miss Bruni divulges that Mrs Obama replied when asked about her position as the U.S. president’s wife: ‘Don’t ask! It’s hell. I can’t stand it!’ […]
THE event of the Midwest is fast upon us, Sept. 18, this Saturday! So what the heck IS this Right Nation 2010 thing, anyway? The website tells us that the event will be a gathering of thousands of conservatives who will, “come together to celebrate their shared lineage and common purpose. They’ll be joined by […]
A few months ago, Democrats were shrieking that the sky would fall if they didn’t seize control of the healthcare industry immediately. But the upcoming election, combined with the public’s fervent rejection of ObamaCare, has changed their tune: Since the beginning of Congress’s August recess, Democratic candidates have poured $930,000 into ads deriding the health […]
In the 2008 cycle, Slatecard raised more than $600,000 for Republican candidates. This year, they’re getting a very late start, but not too late to make a difference. So, are you a blogger who wants to let your readers know which conservative candidates you think they should support? Maybe you just want to let your […]
So imagine that you are working out of your home or the home of a friend. Say you are helping care for your own developmentally disabled relative or that of another. You are working for a family, not a company, and you are not employed by the state. Then one day you get a letter […]
In Washington D.C. on Sept. 12 I attended the star studded premiere of the new film America at Risk: The War With No Name, featuring Newt and Callista Gingrich and a dozen well respected experts on the subject of the War on Terror. The event was held at the Newseum, a block or so from […]
To say these are interesting times in politics is a vast understatement. I am loving it. Lots of juicy stuff today. Let’s get to it. It looks like First Lady Michelle Obama doesn’t really like the job: (CBS/AP) French first lady and former model Carla Sarkozy-Bruni is quoted as saying in a new book that […]
Rep. John Lewis (D-Ga) sat down for an interview with Der Spiegel, and offered up the typical liberal defense of Obamanomics SPIEGEL: Were you not surprised how quickly the political mood changed in the US? Lewis: No. It’s the first time in the history of the country that we have a black president. You have […]
First we had “global warming,” a proposition that Mankind’s release of greenhouse gases, mostly CO2, was causing the Earth to warm. Then we were treated to “climate change”, which attempted to explain away flatlining and declining temps (plus abnormal cold spells, snow, lack of weather events, hot, cold, wet, dry) and turned the movement from […]
That’s Molly Norris of Seattle. She was placed on an “execution hit list” by fanatical Islamist Anwar al-Awlaki. FBI recommended a change of identity and complete relocation and seclusion. It’s kinda unreal. I understand the fears. But I’m sick to my stomach (and my heart) that it’s come to this. Anyone speaking out against Islamist […]
[The above photo is of me and Vodkapundit–aka, Stephen Green.] This past weekend, FreedomWorks put on a national blogger conference in Washington D.C. called BlogCon, that was open to all bloggers who wanted to attend. Tabitha Hale, the brains behind BlogCon who put the whole thing together, really outdid herself. (All attendees should participate in […]
-By Dave McClure, President and CEO of the US Internet Industry Association Net neutrality. It sounds harmless enough, right? Wrong. Net neutrality is the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) misguided and misunderstood attempt to regulate the Internet. Net neutrality has taken many chameleon-like shades in the evolution to its current state, but its inherent dangers to […]
You read for this? You sure? Are your ready to be blown away in utter awe? First, remember The source tells CNN that Kaine will announce something that will excite Democrats across the country. Kaine’s event comes as Democrats face the difficult task of holding onto their majorities in the House and Senate this November. […]
All hail the Obammessiah, the savior of our jobs… well, at least $20 million went to a few sign makers so that Obama could pretend that he saved folk’s jobs, anyway. You can help shine a light on this wasteful federal spending by taking a photo of an Obama propaganda sign on the side of […]
If you are as worried as I am about the left’s effort to force ever larger amounts of big government onto our lives, then you should be looking into the issue of Net Neutrality. To that end a few times a week I’ll be posting some links and info about Net Neutrality to help you […]
With the American public having forcefully rejected every aspect of their agenda, even the most arrogant of our liberal rulers are forced to govern by stealth: Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said Tuesday he will add the DREAM Act, a controversial immigration measure, to a defense policy bill the Senate will take up next week. […]
It only seems like the collection of radical leftists, slippery lobbyists, and tax cheats who comprise the Obama Administration could not possibly get any worse. Shrillary Clinton is an Alinskyite socialist, just like Comrade Obama; but unlike Obama, she’s smart enough that if she were captain, she wouldn’t sink the ship on purpose, not wanting […]
When liberals get into power, they ceaselessly churn out reams of job killing red tape with no concern whatsoever about how it impacts people in the real world. But, the fact of the matter is that real people’s lives are damaged by these thoughtless regulations that are put in place by these liberal politicians. Just […]
Ben Smith of Politico noticed that two “influential writers broadly in sympathy with Obama” recently floated the notion that as the nation turns rightward and isn’t voting with the extreme left, why we’ve all become “irrational.” In the New Yorker, George Packer wrote that we’ve become a mob of unreason. “Nine years later,” he writes, […]
