This has been all over the net yesterday and today. Dan Rather is kind of known for his folkisms. Here is the transcript: When you talk about a triumph though, part of the undertow in the coming election is going to be President Obama’s leadership and the Republicans are making a case, a lot of […]
Would you be surprised to learn that Linsdey Graham is working with Chuck Schumer to push this idea? Lawmakers working to craft a new comprehensive immigration bill have settled on a way to prevent employers from hiring illegal immigrants: a national biometric identification card all American workers would eventually be required to obtain. Under the […]
You won’t hear this speech anywhere in the news, so I’m including the Netherland’s Geert Wilder’s speech to the House of Lords in England for your perusal here. Whether someone agrees or disagrees with a world leader, people must at least be informed. Glenn Beck, yesterday, ranted on about how Wilders was a fascist. That’s […]
Catherine Davis of Georgia Right to Life talks the “black genocide” and the controversial billboard campaign. In the second half, Jimmie Bise of SundriesShack.com talks Seth Godin’s book Linchpin and Gary Vanderchuck’s book Crush it. Which book should you buy? Listen and find out.
How can this be? What with all the bowing Obama’s engaged in and talking with enemy regimes and giving the Queen of England a cool iPod with his own photos and vids, how can this happen? Heck, Barry was given a Nobel Peace Prize! A majority of Americans say the United States is less respected […]
Time and time again, the conservative base has asked the Republican establishment to stay out of competitive primaries. They don’t listen to us. Know why? Because they’re Beltway dumb. No matter how many Arlen Specters, Harriet Miers picks for the SCOTUS, or illegal immigration disasters they maneuver themselves into over the protests of the base, […]
Liz Cheney has made an issue of the fact that the Department of Justice has hired a number of lawyers who’ve defended Al-Qaeda. Predictably, liberals and some conservative lawyers have gotten upset with Cheney. What’s the conservative lawyers’ beef? Since everybody has a right to counsel, they believe whom a defense attorney represents has no […]
“Government Health Care is not about health care; It’s about Government.” So reads the last line of Mark Steyn’s latest brilliant article, which I strongly suggest that everyone read. He’s right, of course, but I’d go even a step further. It’s not just about government, it’s about a mindset and a freedom-squashed way of life. […]
I made a video series below based on a post I found here. Most people have found this fun.
New Jersey officials said a quack “doctor” from the Dominican Republic was caught perpetrating what he was telling immigrant women was a surgical enhancement of their rear-ends this week. The criminal was injecting household caulk into these women’s rear ends, telling them that the procedure would make them more alluring to men so that they […]
At the Los Angeles Times, “‘Hurt’ Locks it Up“: “The Hurt Locker,” a gritty, challenging and little-seen drama about bomb disposal in the Iraq war, was the leading winner with six Academy Awards on Sunday night, including best picture and the first directing honor for a female filmmaker. Academy Award organizers had doubled this year’s […]
Most Americans want abortion outlawed or greatly reduced, while only approximately 30% of Democrats want abortion always legal: As of 2009, 33 percent of Republicans say abortions should always be illegal and another 54 percent say they should only be legal in certain circumstances. That’s 88 percent of Republicans who want abortions prohibited or limited […]
Germany’s Odenwaldschule gives an idea of why some are alarmed that perverted degenerates like Obama’s “Safe Schools” Czar Kevin Jennings are put in positions of authority in education. Pupils at a progressive private boarding school in Hesse were regularly sexually abused, the Frankfurter Rundschau newspaper reported Saturday. The Odenwaldschule school board admitted to the paper […]
You didn’t need to read up on Obama’s background to know in advance that he is an authoritarian collectivist. All you had to do was pay attention during the debates. When asked whether healthcare is a privilege or a “right,” Chairman Zero promptly answered that it is a “right.” Healthcare consists of goods and services. […]
One of the biggest stumbling blocks for Obamacare is the very legitimate fear of Democrats in the House that Senate Democrats won’t pass a “fix” of the bill through reconciliation. First of all, here’s how Democrats in the House want the process to work: They pass the bill already voted through in the Senate. Then […]
One thing I’ve been fond of saying over the last couple of years is that Jack Abramoff didn’t get in trouble for bribing members of Congress, he got in trouble for being explicit about it. The sort of chicanery that Abramoff engaged in goes on every day of the week in Congress, but they just […]
Democrats who hate Rahm Emanuel (and that seems to be all of them) are coming out against the man. The far left hates him because of his Southern Strategy. This is my favorite description of him, though, by disgraced Congressman Massa: “Rahm Emanuel is son of the devil’s spawn,” Massa added. “He is an individual […]
Poll: Patriot Room bloggers Clyde Middleton and Bill Dupray say it’s dead. Steve Schippert of Threatswatch isn’t sure. I say that it could still pass. Who’s right? A form of the health care bill will be passed: Podcast here: Welcome to the second (and long delayed!) edition of the Liberty Pundits podcast. Melissa, Bill, Clyde, […]
Remember this quote as delivered to Obama from TOTUS? The Bush administration has done so much damage to American foreign relations that the president take a more active role in diplomacy than might have been true 20 or 30 years ago. If we think that meeting with the president is a privilege that has to […]
I’ve been running RWN for almost 10 years and during that time, I’ve accumulated a lot of funny conservative images on my hard drive. I thought today might be a good day to put some of them out in a post. Enjoy! One of the most ghoulish liberal ideas of the last few years has […]
Turkey, the gateway between the East and West has had some disquieting news: A Turkish newspaper reports that police burst into an Istanbul synagogue during recent Sabbath services and demanded worshipers’ ID’s. The Turkish Milliyet newspaper reported that the Muslim government in Turkey appears to be cracking down on non-Muslim minorities. The individual communities are […]
We send our young adults to university to be educated in the ways of the world, we all know. Following that well-worn path, young James Schackleford decided on the publicly funded Florida Atlantic University for his edification and boy did he learn a lesson about modern education last week. Mr. Schackleford learned that the FAU […]
At the blog YidWithLid.blogspot.com Sammy Benoit has posted an interesting piece about the mess befalling so many failing union pension funds across the nation. The post includes a very useful chart that shows the trouble in which some of the largest union pension funds find themselves. The upshot is that these pensions are on the […]
Here we go Seeking to step up enforcement of civil rights laws, the federal Department of Education says it will be sending letters in coming weeks to thousands of school districts and colleges, outlining their responsibilities on issues of fairness and equal opportunity. As part of that effort, the department intends to open investigations known […]
Paul Krugman, an op-ed columnist for the The New York Times, truly illustrates the warped thinking of many liberals. In his latest piece he states that Republicans and Democrats live in different universes. That part is undeniably true. But his universe is clearly the “Alice In Wonderland” type of universe. Nothing quite makes sense when […]
See update below In an interesting turn of events this week, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was forced by her caucus to pry Rep. Charlie Rangel’s (D-NY) Ways and Means gavel out of his hands and throw Rep. Pete Stark (D-CA) under the bus. Then, she cut Rep. Eric Massa (D-NY) loose late Friday afternoon, pressuring […]
CHURCHVILLE, VA–President Obama has allocated $4 billion in “stimulus funds” to help advance the “smart grid,” which is intended to seamlessly integrate all our new solar and wind power into the national supply of electricity. Much of the $4 billion will be spent to install 20 million new digital “smart meters.” These meters will instantly […]
Angry old coot Andrew Malcolm and ignorant slut Melissa Clouthier discuss the Oscars, Bloggingheads TV with Bill Scher, Karl Rove’s new book, Adam Gadahn’s capture, the fact that George W. Bush is smarter than Al Gore, health care talks, and much more, in the fastest hour of the week, Malcolm & Melissa.
Fox News reports: Polls closed across Iraq on Sunday as the war-weary population awaits results from the national election that will decide the future of the country’s still-fragile democracy. The election tested the mettle of the country’s shaky security as insurgents killed 31 people across Iraq, unleashing a barrage of mortars intent on disrupting the […]
While I agree most of the time with Byron York, there is a clarification needed in his article correcting left-wing writer Ezra Klein’s piece today. This December article by RedState’s Dan Perrin explains: Now, because of Senator DeMint’s objection, unless the House votes for the Senate bill unchanged – which is highly unlikely (see below) […]
