When You Just Need To Watch Another Climate Alarmist Lose It

Twenty years ago, the following commentary would have earned the writer a one way trip to being written off as a complete loon. Today, the writer is given the chance to publish a screed on CNN (with a disclaimer, of course). Editor’s note: Alan Weisman is the author of “The World Without Us,” an international […]

But how, exactly, do you know that?

Because recent history kind of indicates that you don’t. The story: an insurance company called WellPoint appears to be canceling health insurance policies when women covered by those policies are diagnosed with breast cancer.

Dems Conspire to Kill the Filibuster

It’s as if the power-drunk socialists currently in the driver’s seat think they’ll be there forever. Do they know something the pollsters don’t? Now they want to kill the filibuster.

Climahysterics Upset Because Bush Was Pro-Solar

Reason # 4 why climate alarmists are nuts: they talk the talk, but, when push comes to shove, they will not actually allow alternative energy facilities to be built The Mojave Desert in southeastern California is the mother lode of renewable energy.

Good News: New Comment System. Bad News: Off Today

Just a little heads up and two things. #1) I’m not going to be posting on RWN today, although some of RWN’s week-end bloggers should be taking up the slack. #2) If all goes as expected, RWN’s comment system will be replaced with Disqus this week-end. That should make the comment section easier to use, […]

A group called the Institute for Justice (http://www.ij.org/) is doing yeoman’s work alerting everyone to the simply un-American powers that police agencies across the country have been afforded by an out-of-control government.
