I’m blacker than Barack Obama. I shined shoes. I grew up in a five-room apartment. My father had a little laundromat in a black community not far from where we lived. I saw it all growing up. — Rod Blagojevich It’s not the ‘Kennedy Seat. It’s the people’s seat. — Scott Brown Coakley bristles at […]
According to blogger Greg Sargent, Martha Coakley’s campaign has sent a frantic last minute memo to top Democratic donors urging them to shell out the Benjamin’s because an internal poll shows the race to be “very tight.” The memo is the latest sign that the campaign surge of Scott Brown has caught the Democrat establishment […]
I so want this to happen, I’m afraid a poll like this is just to get Democrats off their duffs to vote. New reports on the Brown-Coakley race: Riding a wave of opposition to Democratic health-care reform, GOP upstart Scott Brown is leading in the U.S. Senate race, raising the odds of a historic upset […]
From IBD, “Democratic Party Pouring Cash Into Mass. to Stop GOP Upset“: GOP state Sen. Scott Brown may be able to win Tuesday’s special election to fill Ted Kennedy’s old seat. Even if he loses, it’s clear that his campaign’s momentum has sent shock waves through the Democratic Party. “No one thought this would be […]
It would appear that long-shot Republican Senate candidate Scott Brown has a fighting chance of winning the “Ted Kennedy Seat” in Massachusetts. Brown reminded the moderator that the seat was, in fact, “the people’s seat”, not Ted Kennedy’s during a recent debate. And, according to the latest Rasmussen poll, Brown is within 2 points of […]
Posted from TabithaHale.com. If you follow me on Twitter or are a Facebook friend, you know how completely obsessive I’ve been about the disaster in Haiti. I have been watching every news report I can find and have wept over photos. I want nothing more than to get on a plane and go down there. […]
Conservative leaders came together in New York City to address our nation’s most important issues for the “Reclaim American Liberty” Conference.
There are a couple kind of “friends”: There are those who kiss your ass, but behind your back say nasty things. There are those who kiss your ass and are opinion-free cheer leading no-minds. There are those who say that you a re friends and you ask, “Who?” I would suggest, that in this world […]
This may not seem to be a big story in the scheme of things, but I think it speaks to what the GOP is about, how we handle differences, and how we move forward. Liberty University Law School has withdrawn as a co-sponsor of next month’s Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) in Washington because a […]
The Associated Press had an extensive story reporting on First Lady Michelle Obama’s White House garden on Jan 13. The story included the tidbit that her veggies were the main ingredients during a recent Iron Chef TV show episode. The AP happily reported that the crops “inspired a culinary showdown” on the TV show and […]
The Cook County (Chicago) Democrat Party sent out a direct mail piece early this week that listed all the Democrat presidents that brought “prosperity” to this country. Oh they are all there, FDR, Truman, Kennedy, LBJ, Bill Clinton… uh, wait. Isn’t one of ’em missing? You guessed it, Jimmah Carter, the worst president in American […]
Thanks to the ClimateGate emails, we now know that the government teat-suckers in warmist academia are scientists after all. They know that climate fluctuation is caused not by light bulbs and SUVs, but by variations in solar activity; but they also know how to hide this fact from the gullible. In 2003, two Harvard-Smithsonian Professors, […]
Attention Red Sox Nation — You could help spare America from an Obamunist nitwit who put you down: Coakley bristles at the suggestion that, with so little time left, in an election with such high stakes, she is being too passive. “As opposed to standing outside Fenway Park? In the cold? Shaking hands?” she fires […]
A new front exists in a war for international dominance: the internet. China has been up to some very bad behavior. From the Washington Post: Computer attacks on Google that the search giant said originated in China were part of a concerted political and corporate espionage effort that exploited security flaws in e-mail attachments to […]
Much of this is bloggable, but since I don’t have time, I’m sharing the links with a bit of commentary. I’ll have a couple posts later. Code Pink is asking the Muslim Brotherhood to “cleanse America” and to kidnap George Bush and his family. No, this is not made up. A perspective on Pat Robertson’s […]
Remember Scott Ritter? He was once a tough talking weapons inspector who was deeply skeptical that Saddam Hussein had gotten rid of his WMDs. Then, without explanation, his position shifted on a dime to “Hussein could have WMDs? That’s crazy talk. Who could believe that?” At the end of the day, Ritter’s new position proved […]
Andrew Malcolm, reporter for the Los Angeles Times, joined me to discuss the blend of “old” and “new” media and how the news landscape is changing. He also talks about his time reporting in Chicago and how the machine works and how Barack Obama is a product of that machine and now runs the machine […]
Will Scott Brown make liberals across America go to sleep on pillows soggy with their own tears next week? We don’t know for sure. If you had to bet, you’d have to say the odds are against Brown pulling out a victory in ultra-liberal Taxachusetts. However, Brown legitimately has a shot to win. Rasmussen shows […]
Can we branch bacon off into its own food group? The traditional English breakfast is not normally associated with good health. But scientists have found that eating a plate of bacon and eggs could help pregnant women boost the intelligence of their unborn child. But the new study suggests that a chemical in pork products […]
Back in December of last year, I polled RWN’s readers on whom they wanted as the GOP nominee in 2012. The results? It was a landslide. Sarah Palin collected 46% of the vote and no one else cracked 8% of the vote. So, I thought it would be a good idea to take another crack […]
Last year, I was ecstatic when that “sack of sorriness” John Cornyn got his worthless, RINO boosting @ss boo’d at a Tea Party in his home state: However, this story about “Abortion Bill Ben” Nelson may be even better. As each day passes, it’s looking more and more like Nelson has a choice to make: […]
It apparently means little to the editorial board at the Boston Globe that Martha Coakley has dissed Fenway Park fans (a story their own paper featured. Yesterday), stood idly by while one of her campaign peeps assaulted a reporter, and was turned into a dirty mop during the last debate with Scott Brown. Interestingly, the […]
The Associated Press reported that the Weekly Standard‘s John McCormack “stumbled as he tried to speak with the Democrat while simultaneously videotaping her and trying to pass a metal grate on a Washington sidewalk.” Funny thing is, though, Meehan has now apologized for McCormack’s “stumble.” See, “Apology Accepted” (via Memeorandum): A remorseful Michael P. Meehan […]
Why when you’re a part of a favored special interest group of course: Unions tentatively struck a deal Tuesday to exempt collectively bargained healthcare plans from a tax on high-cost plans expected to be used to help raise revenue for the healthcare overhaul. The left constantly clamors for “fairness” but quickly throws such concerns under […]
An operative for the Martha Coakley campaign, Democrat for Massachusetts Senate, assaulted a reporter from the Weekly Standard Magazine last night. The Weekly Standard has the dirt. As it happens long-time Democrat media operative Michael Meehan knocked over the reporter and then, after he rose, continued to push the reporter down the street pretending that […]
A new book about the Tea Party movement — and a movement it really is — will soon be hitting the shelves. “A New American Tea Party” penned by John M. O’Hara, one of the many folks that helped bring us some of those protests in early 2009, is a book that hopes that the […]
Michael Gerson has out a piece today professing surprise that Obama’s speeches have become a weak point. Here’s Gerson: In the most unexpected development of his presidency, what was once universally recognized as Obama’s greatest political strength — his oratory — now seems a serious weakness. …The swift rise of Barack Obama was primarily a […]
Hard left Senator Tom Harkin (D-IA) is good for something after all. He succinctly sums up what ObamaCare means for the future of this country: What this bill does is we finally take that step… from healthcare as a privilege to healthcare as an inalienable right of every single American citizen. Sounds good, doesn’t it? […]
