Apparently it will take more than the astonishing O’Keefe/Giles exposés to disinfect Washington of the disease known as ACORN. Ignoring revelations that ACORN is a cesspool of corruption, Democrats have voted to give it regulatory power over the financial institutions that it habitually shakes down for donations. During consideration of H.R. 3126, legislation to establish […]
Late last week, I interviewed Robert Spencer of Jihad Watch about his new book, The Complete Infidel’s Guide to the Koran. What follows is a slightly edited transcript of our interview. Can you talk about what was referred to as the Koran’s “strange teachings on Christians and Christianity?” Well, I suppose that would probably be […]
Yes I am. Can you be a Marine? Yes you can! Read on…. This is from Cassandra of Villainous Company. Who does America call when something absolutely, positively must be destroyed overnight? U.S. Marine Rat That’s right… America’s 911 Force: the Few. The Loud. The Marine team! We’re still looking for a few good blogs […]
At Western CPAC there were a row of blogging men with two notable exceptions: Rachel Alexander of Intellectual Conservative and me. Proportionally in political blogging and in blogging generally, there just aren’t as many women bloggers. David Griner of The Social Path asks why: If you spend any time looking at social media demographics, there’s […]

We all know that the Left loves to debate and give people their say, to listen to all points of view, right? Right? RIGHT? A POLITICAL row has broken out over a Derby Conservative councillor’s decision to show a climate change-sceptic film in the city’s council chamber. The new film, Not Evil Just Wrong, is […]
But, don’t say Democrats are socialist or anything Congress and the Obama administration are about to take up one of the most fundamental issues stemming from the near collapse of the financial system last year – how to deal with institutions that are so big that the government has no choice but to rescue them […]
Private health insurance companies have been demonized by the Democrats and the administration as modern day “robber barons” who are raking in obscene profits mostly by denying you coverage. But a simple fact checking dispels that sort of an attack as negative propaganda with no basis in reality: Health insurance profit margins typically run about […]
The “Downfall parodies” aren’t really parodies, in the legal sense. But as this one demonstrates, “Hitler” does seem to understand something about copyright, law, intellectual property management and, of course, slaloming through alternative realities: Never before has an historical figure, much less one of history’s most evil men yet one still regarded as some kind […]
For a Halloween treat, please enjoy this reading of Poe’s The Raven. I always wanted to hear an old school, horror styled production of the raven, so here it is. The Raven replete with spooky music, lightning, and blustery weather sounds. This is a fun one to heighten your Halloween mood.
Y’all wanted some sports threads. Add your thoughts to the day of Football
Back when Operation Iraqi Freedom was a big deal to the media such as the New York Times, especially the body counts and reports of a boot trooper doing something he shouldn’t have done, one used to be able to find stories of good news in the Saturday edition. I had a theory that none […]
From Michael Ledeen, at the Weekly Standard, “We Have Met the Enemy … And it is Iran“: Speaking publicly about the role of Iran in Afghanistan–which is substantial, and about which we have considerable information–seems to be taboo for our current leaders. This is neither new nor surprising. Iranians, and Iranian-trained terrorists from organizations such […]
Oh-oh: “One thing I can tell you: They can go out and chase me and chase the Chamber and put stuff in the newspaper. It only . . . drives more and more support. . . . You think we are going to blink because a couple of people are out shooting at us? Tell […]
In “Goodfellas,” the mob movie that won Joe Pesci an Oscar, the restaurant owner found out what it means to take the money. Not money, exactly — he took protection. He asked the mob boss to become a silent partner, in order to protect him from other mobsters — like Joe Pesci — who were […]
So earlier this week I got cc’d on an email with links to a Geert Wilders’ speech on YouTube. The person who sent it said, in effect, “This is a must-see! What this man has to say is very important.” Today one of the CC’s sent this reply: I had a brief look, and if […]
The fact that I don’t own a dog offsets the carbon footprint I create with my daily commute, see. Add that to the European vacation (including round-trip flights and several hours on the Autobahn) that I didn’t take, and I am as green as Kermit with the flu. What am I talking about? This: New […]
Hey, let’s all jump in our cars and drive to the meeting site. We’ll create lots of signs made from paper, we’ll all have our bottles of water, and we’ll protest man caused global warming, er, climate change, because it is cold Environmentalists across California have organized a series of colorful events: Saturday: to press for tough […]
At last weekend’s ANSWER’s “teach-in” on Afghanistan, one of the speakers was Tamara Khoury of Students Fight Back, a college protest group out of Cal State Fullerton. Ms. Koury denounced the “war economy” that was siphoning funds from public education: “I can’t get into my classes, my tuition this year was doubled, and yet hundreds […]
Health care reform? Cap-and-trade? Or, perhaps, economic recovery and jobs? On Thursday, Obama’s economic adviser Christina Romer told Congress the administration agrees with other analysts that the economy will grow in the third quarter, and beyond. Even so, she said, “unemployment is likely to remain at its severely elevated level,” and noted expectations that few […]
Holy switcherolli, Batman. Barack Obama has flipped the political world upside down for the Democrats. Let me take you back to a RWN post from June 9 of this year, That brings me to the Rasmussen polling data that my co-blogger Melissa Clouthier discussed yesterday on Right Wing News. Here are the key numbers from […]
The way that Obama is dealing with Fox News is transparently cynical. Fox News has the biggest cable news ratings. CNN and MSNBC are a joke beside of them. Moreover, while the other stations give sycophantic coverage to the Obama Administration and spend an inordinate amount of time beating up on hapless Republicans who have […]
Remember Van Jones, the self-described communist and “rowdy black nationalist” who admitted to having been “radicalized in jail”? Comrade Obamao set him up as Green Jobs Czar and gave him a staggering $60 billion of our money to create green jobs, leaving even Newsreek to wonder where the money went when no one could even […]
One reason liberals hate Christianity so frenetically is that it teaches us that we can overcome sin and find redemption. According to moonbat ideology, we are hapless victims who cannot be held accountable for our own behavior. The idea that we have free will is heresy to progressives, so it is no surprise that books […]
Despite assurances to the contrary, Politico.com is reporting that Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D, Calif.) does not have the votes to include the so-called public option in the House version of Obamacare making it more likely that a “trigger” will be included instead. Politico also reports that Obama himself announced support for the […]
This has to be one of the best political ads I’ve seen: I would submit that the problem with both Hilary Care and ObamaCare is that the American people wanted neither. They wanted gentle reforms to open up the system, not government control of the system.
I believe that Christianity is the single best influence on mankind. It is responsible for Western civilization’s flourishing, it is responsible for the heights of freedom and liberty that untold billions of humans have enjoyed and will enjoy in the future. Certainly the bedrock of that success is the Christian Bible. So, don’t go calling […]
From the Politico, “NY-23 Race First Test of Tea Party Power” (via Memeorandum): : Tea party activists from across the nation are rallying around the House special election in upstate New York, viewing it as the first electoral test of the nascent conservative movement’s political muscle. Organizers up and down the East Coast report that […]
With word that former Alaska Governor Sarah Palin has endorsed conservative Doug Hoffman to fill the House seat vacated by Army Secretary John McHugh, there is a real chance the once and future Republican could score an upset, defeating GOP nominee Dede Scozzafava and Democrat Bill Owens. The safe bet though would be for an […]
At least Fox News primetime hosts, and many of their guests, know something about politics. MSNBC’s primetime lineup presents an array of people who sound like earnest college kids who just walked up to a Common Cause table, and the sum-total of what they know about politics is what they read in the brochures. — […]
