Ecomoonbattery Shopping Bonanza

They say environmentalists are green on the outside, communist red on the inside. But even the most Marxist of moonbats like to make a buck. Check out some of the latest products to exploit the increasingly risible environmental craze. The solar power boat: Just make sure to bring an oar in case the clouds come […]

Easiest Question Ever: Colin Powell Or Rush Limbaugh?

Dick Cheney, who is probably one of the most honest politicians you’ll ever run across in Washington, gave an answer to a question that would no doubt horrify many of the effette, establishment Republicans in DC, even if they wouldn’t have the guts to admit it publicly, Schieffer brought up recent banter about the Republican […]

A Short, Obligatory Post About The White House Correspondents Dinner

I’ve never liked the White House Correspondents Dinner or as people have taken to calling it, “Nerd Prom.” The dinners are implacably hostile to all things conservative, the politicians end up behaving like jackasses about half the time, and the comedians who are invited to perform have every incentive to go way over-the-top to get […]

The Problem With The Media’s Focus In The War On Terrorism

One of the biggest problems we have in the war on terrorism is that our media, almost by default, takes the side of the terrorists. It’s not just that they reveal sensitive classified data that helps get Americans killed; it’s that they slavishly slant almost every story in a way that helps the terrorists and […]

Latest Pajamas Media Column: Poor, Poor Put-Upon Moderates

The moderates are feeling persecuted, marginalized, reviled and yes, put-upon. They also tend to inhabit the ranks of writers and journalists–you know, balanced, seeing all sides and generally talking around a topic. Because of their professional affiliation, those on the right get to hear their tortured logic and navel gazing ad nauseum. In response to […]

An Interview With Congresswoman Michelle Bachmann

Back in 2006, when I led the Rightroots effort in the blogosphere to help get Republicans elected, one of the candidates we raised money for was Michelle Bachmann. Happily, she was elected and since then, she has been ferociously fighting for conservative causes in Congress and has become one of the Left’s primary targets. Last […]

Welcome To 1875, AGW Style

We all want to go back to the past, right? Some time traveling? No need to wait for Doc Brown. Obama and the Climahysterics plan to take us there, as Rep. Joe Barton (R-Tx), among others, points out The war against global warming evidently starts at home, where President Obama says the price of electricity […]

After Destroying the DC Voucher Program, What Does Obama Do For An Encore? Defunds Historical Black Colleges

It wasn’t too long ago that the Obama administration, in conjunction with Senate Democrats, destroyed a DC voucher program that allowed DC parents to send their children to private schools.  This was a Democrat united front to destroy school choice. And it seems that wasn’t enough.  In the proposed Obama budget, historical Black colleges are […]

Hope ‘N Change Equals Culture Of Death

It equals quite a few other things, like restriction of free speech, spending beyond belief, massive interference in peoples private and business lives, and much more, including, as Jonah Goldberg calls it, “nice fascism,” but, let’s stick with the culture of death for the moment The pro-abortion policies of the Obama Administration are part of […]

This Is “Rich”

I‘m still amazed that many people who put their support behind Obama in the presidential election, are suddenly discovering things about him they don’t like. Really? Now they discover Obama is a class warrior? It comes as no surprise for those of us who took the time to assess where he came from and what […]

Ideological Purity

Dick Cheney thinks it is a mistake for Republicans to try to be more moderate. “I think it would be a mistake for us to moderate,” Cheney said. “This is about fundamental beliefs and values and ideas … what the role of government should be in our society, and our commitment to the Constitution and […]

Remote

Now that Bessie’s retired, it would seem the next-most-durable appliance in the household is a Memorex DVD/VHS combo unit that has done little-to-nothing to go above & beyond the call of duty, but has filled out an impressive lifespan of heavy use, with no grief involved whatsoever. I realized this all of a sudden when […]

Past Predictions of GOP’s Demise Way Off

The Reagan White House’s political director Jeffrey Lord pens a piece in today’s Philly Inquirer that talks about how past predictions of the demise of the GOP have proven to be way off (via ST reader GWR): A former GOP presidential nominee claims conservatives “want to drive all the moderates and liberals out,” which would […]

Momhood

I’m not a mom yet, but I have been taking note of the smart parenting of my friends and peers. In 2004, when former governor Mark Warner was telling me in his commencement address at Mary Washington College to “Listen to your Mother” it showed that a mother’s impact is undeniable no matter what your […]

No Joe

The Bipartisan Rules blog, relying — not surprisingly on this point — on support from David Frum, writes as follows: The Republican Party should be a political vehicle, not an ideological movement, but its opinion makers have it completely backward. Its policies have become secondary to this ideal that we must keep alive the flame […]

My generation

On my Princeton lawyers list there was a bit of a dustup late last week when some excited participants started talking about the prospect of Judge Sonia Sotomayor, a fellow alumna, being nominated to the Supreme Court by President Obama. It started with one of the participants breathlessly reporting the news; the inevitable comment from […]

Obama To Address Muslims In Egypt, Then Blow Off Plebes In Normandy

Will Obama apologize to the Muslim world for America? President Obama and Secretary Teleprompter will deliver a speech June 4 in Egypt on America’s relationship with the Muslim world, White House Press Secretary Robert Gibbs announced Friday. He deflected several questions at his daily briefing about whether Egypt is a wise choice, given President Hosni […]

Ronald Reagan: do-it-yourselfer…

When I posted on my visit last month to the Reagan Ranch, one of my readers at GayPatriot offered recalled his own visit to that beautiful but simple place: When I visited a couple years back I was impressed by the ordinariness of the place. Clearly just where Ron and Nancy Reagan liked to go […]

Serving His Country

Blogger pal Gerard has remitted a service to his country of priceless value. Maybe not priceless, actually…the piece o’crap he started with cost just north of 350 big ‘uns. That’s a lot for a picture, you know. If you tasked me to go out and find a camera that costs as much as a house, […]

Right Wing Radio Week in Review: May 4 – 8

For weeks, Rush Limbaugh has been in the news. Ever since his big CPAC speech, the media and the Democrat party have targeted Limbaugh as “the de facto leader of the GOP” (like that’s a bad thing, but anyhow…) Incredibly, Rush Limbaugh was pushed off the front pages by his fellow radio host Michael Savage. […]

Moonbat Mother’s Day

Mother’s Day is coming up Sunday. Here‘s how moonbat children’s book author Judy Blume has decided to honor it: Blume is lending her name to the solicitation of donations for Planned Parenthood, the nation’s largest abortion business. In a new missive ironically celebrating mothers day, Blume suggests sending a donation to the pro-abortion group to […]

ACORN Thugs Lavishly Financed With Your Money

It would be hard to imagine a more pernicious and distasteful operation than ACORN, a literally criminal enterprise that engages in massive voter fraud on a nationwide basis, and helped cause the financial crisis by using thug tactics to force banks to make loans based on race. Their repugnant national spokesman Scott Levenson offers a […]

Joe the Plumber Endorses Steve Lonegan for NJ Governor

The event was scheduled for 7 o’clock in Clark, NJ this Tuesday. By 6 o’clock, I admit I was a bit nervous. The sun hadn’t come up all day, it was now starting to rain. Surely, this would put a damper on an outdoor cookout, even one that was featuring Joe Wurzelbacher (“Joe the Plumber”) […]

A Teleconference With South Carolina Governor, Mark Sanford

Here are my notes, not quotes, from a teleconference with South Carolina Governor, Mark Sanford. Opening Statement I’m low tech. I’m don’t really know a lot about blogging, but I am getting up to speed. We’ve tried to work with Obama on the stimulus package, but we’ve been rebuffed. In-state, we have been going back […]

“The mess that Obama inherited”

That is the mantra of the Left. Over and over and over broken record style they say it droning like the mindless borg they are. Yep, Republicans who once could be counted on to be fiscally responsible turned out to be big, greedy, disgusting hogs when they were in power. And now, President Barack Obama […]

This Week In Quotes: May 1 – May 7

As the left continues to lecture conservatives about their political future — because, after all, Dems have been fully in charge for 100 days now — let’s recount a couple of facts: The Iraq war was supported by more than 60 percent of Americans. Polls showed wide-ranging support for the Patriot Act. Jimmy Carter was […]
