What do you think of this idea? Starting later this summer, U.S. citizens 21 and older can begin carrying a concealed firearm without a permit in Arizona. Gov. Jan Brewer signed Senate Bill 1108 into law Friday afternoon. It eliminates the requirement for a concealed-carry weapons permit, but does require gun owners to accurately answer […]
President Obama is apparently feeling unappreciated.: “You would think they’d be saying thank you,” he said about the Tea Party protests at a recent Democratic fundraiser. In his mind, he’s worked hard his first year adjusting taxes for our benefit. And for what? Nary a Tea Party thank you has been offered.: Instead he’s faced […]
Patriots were more than ready for the moonbats who attempted to sully yesterday’s historic rallies for liberty. Here’s the reception a clown with Nazi symbols on his shirt got in St. Louis: Special signs were also used to defang moonbats in Oceanside, CA… …in San Francisco… …in Denver… …in Texas… …and in Columbus: Failure comes […]
Don’t let the scum floating on the top convince you that America has gone rotten. Here‘s what the scum is floating on: He has no legs and no eyesight, but Marine Cpl. Matthew Bradford has four more years of military service ahead of him after becoming the first blind double-amputee to re-enlist. The rifleman was […]
This has absolutely got to be the video of the week: Here’s the recap, via Brent Baker at the MRC: “There aren’t a lot of African-American men at these events,” NBC News reporter Kelly O’Donnell, a white woman, told Darryl Postell, a black man at a Tea Party rally held Thursday in Washington, DC, pressing […]
Maureen Dowd, columnist for The New York Times, has finally lost that last tenuous grip she had on her sanity. I thought she was already taking a long walk off the short pier of her sanity when she started hearing non-existent words, such as “boy” after Joe Wilson’s “You Lie” comment. That was nothing compared […]
Union contracts are killing the U.S. Post Office, making it uncompetitive and driving costs through the roof according to the Government Accountability Office. The U.S. Post Office lost $12 billion between 2007 and 2009 and has reached its borrowing limit of $15 billion already. On top of that the union pension fund is underfunded. Even […]
Why is it that lefties always get history wrong? The Jewish World Review recently published an editorial by NPR commentator Cokie Roberts and her hubby meant to urge the country toward “comprehensive” immigration reform by praising America’s history of immigrant labor. But even as much of what the two Roberts say is dead on, there […]
It was a beautiful day and I had a great time at the Houston Tea Party yesterday. Me and my SmartGirlPolitics buddy, Michelle Lancaster, manned the SGP booth and met lots of wonderful people. Some of the speakers are below. Natalie Arceneaux of The Civil Right, Ted Cruz, and a picture with Kevin Jackson of […]
When Joe Lieberman declared that he was going to run as an: Independent, I immediately told people he could go that route and win. Here’s what I penned on RWN back on August 10, 2006, the same day that Ned Lamont beat Joe Lieberman in the Democratic primary: A Breakdown Of CT. voters according to […]
Even though he made over 300 thousand dollars : last : year and knew that people would see his tax returns, Joe Biden gave very little money to charity last year, Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. and his wife, Jill, earned $333,000 in 2009, and gave $4,820 — 1.44 percent — of that to charity in […]
I miss the swaggering cowboy. He may have been tongue-tied; he may have screwed up with an errant backrub, but the didn’t boy to royalty, he didn’t give embarrassing gifts to allies, he didn’t show the Dalai Lama the back door. He never said to a visiting ally (paraphrased) “I’m gonna go have dinner with […]
No, seriously Facing ongoing, massive financial losses, the United States Postal Service (USPS) has said that a cut in Saturday service would help the service do its part to stem the effects of manmade climate change. In its proposal, the service said that CO2 emissions by its vehicles and facilities could be slashed by up […]
Happy Friday! I bet you never knew this about Dear Leader, vis a vis space exploration “The bottom line is, nobody is more committed to manned spaceflight, to human exploration of space than I am,” he said in a speech to about 200 attendees of a White House-sponsored space conference here. There’s probably a joke […]
Yesterday, I attended the Myrtle Beach Tea Party. It’s the third one I’ve been to and the crowd looked even bigger than before. Although I’m terrible with crowd estimates, I’d say 400-500 people were there over the course of the afternoon. That may not sound like a lot of people, but Myrtle Beach only has […]
I hate it when the Old Media gets all mad at me, and stuff. But, here is the vaunted AP scolding me for “skewering” a grade school over the story of the canceled cross-dressing day that was to be held at the Maude Wilkins School in New Jersey. On the morning of April 12 I […]
Just another case where Obama shows his disdain for American exceptionalism In a little-noticed remark at the close of the two-day nuclear security summit in Washington, D.C., this week, President Obama suggested the United States was somehow burdened by its military might. Being a superpower ain’t all that, at least according to President Obama. In […]
The coup de grâce to our capitalist economy, Cap & Trade, has gone under the radar, but is still in play. This outrageous act of sabotage (“likely to be the biggest tax in American history” per the Wall Street Journal) passed the House, and prior to being thrown out of office this fall, Harry Reid […]
This podcast will make your blood boil and encourage you at the same time. Richard Noyes of the Media Research Center talks about their analysis of media coverage of the Tea Party. In the second half, Van Irion talks about his Congressional race and the Class Action suit to consider Health Care Reform unconstitutional. Interesting […]
Despite all the Hopey Change, Sweden is still ahead of us on the road toward collectivism. Let’s see how easy it is to find housing in a place where it’s regarded as a “human right”: Long waiting times and high black market prices have long characterised Stockholm’s rental housing market… The sheer hopelessness of the […]
I don’t write about Maureen Dowd simply because she rarely offers anything worthy of serious, intellectual discussion. I don’t claim any sort of high intellect for myself, of course, and don’t necessarily claim to be able to thoroughly judge the work of the deepest of thinkers but Dowd’s work is like the old saying about […]
On March 6, former George H. W. Bush speechwriter Michael Johns was speaking before a tea party gathering in Philadelphia when someone from the audience took exception to the fact that during his address he did not say “President Obama” but merely called him Mr. Obama. The heckler screamed a racial slur at Mr. Johns […]
Okay, I might have made up that last part. It’s true, though, the jobless claims have gone up again. My prediction? They’ll continue to go up for a while, unfortunately. If gas prices inflate (and they will), costs to employers inflate across the board. Makes it tough to hire more people. Here’s the deal: In […]
Or something like that, per the headline: Chesapeake Bay critters suffer from climate change and pollution The country’s largest estuary faces the loss of its life below the surface. These animals not only make up a significant part of the overall ecosystem, but they also provide for a vital industry in the Chesapeake region. In […]
It’s Tax Day — you know what means: President Obama is out touting how he’s “saved” you money, which is laughable. It’s been a year of record spending, topped off with the passage of government-run health care. The House Republican Conference debuted this video yesterday, just in time for Tax Day: “Your Taxes, Their Spending”:
Awwwww, look, the sweet cluebat of reality wacked Waxman upside the head Energy and Commerce Committee Chairman Henry Waxman, D-Calif., has canceled a hearing intended to grill CEOs who took a charge against profits because of the health care reform bill. The cancellation came after they realized what everyone already knew – that the companies […]
I read and enjoyed Amy Alkon’s book, I See Rude People: One woman’s battle to beat some manners into impolite society. The book was funny, gave me a new way of looking at rudeness, and Amy’s relentless desire to confront the rude was intriguing. In fact, you could say that Amy Alkon is the first […]
Feminists rejoice at the idea of abortion for convenience. They are also anti-woman. Most of us realize that the whole “safe, legal and rare” thing that pro-abortion advocates spout is lip service only. But, if you ever had any doubt, this should set that doubt aside once and for all. John Hawkins at Right Wing […]
