It’s absurd. The statement is patently absurd. I didn’t see the debate, but I doubt McCain stomped on the silliness when Obama, no doubt, said the focus-grouped statement again. Why else would Obama say it so much? It must be a homerun for the people sitting in those groups. Anyway, finally, someone is addressing this […]

I didn’t see the debate last night as the inside of the toilet was capturing my undivided attention, so I’ve had to look around to see what people are saying. This isn’t too encouraging: Jeff’s thoughts: Obama wins by virtue of not being forcibly escorted from the stage in handcuffs and leg irons. – Which […]

Miranda Devine turns over the rock of “establishment feminism” and isn’t pleased with what she sees squirming around underneath: Judging by the opinion polls this week, the Alaskan Governor, Sarah Palin, probably will not get to be the US vice-president. But in her brief starring role on the global stage she has been a powerful […]

Joe Wurzelbacher has become the personification of the American dream struggling to survive in the face of encroaching socialism. The Ohio plumber has worked long and hard to put himself in the position to buy a business, for which Obama would reward him by taxing him into a hole for being a capitalist oppressor. As […]

Here are all the highlights from last night’s debate in just three minutes. My personal favorite moment was, ironically, McCain accidentally calling Obama “Senator Govenrment.” That’s an appropriate moniker for that little puffed up, lying, smug, snot nosed, tinpot socialist.

Sean Hannity calls 2008 the year journalism died. It may also be the year democracy in America dies, both falling victim to the absurd yet terrifying Obamania phenomenon. Ohio’s Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner, a ferociously partisan Democrat, has been sitting on 200,000 suspect registrations that she wants to protect from scrutiny. It looks Obama’s […]

I took a look around the right side of the blogospere after the debate and the general consensus could best be summed up by this quote from Gateway Pundit, “No crushing blows but a good showing by McCain.” Most conservabloggers thought McCain won, but that the debate wasn’t a game changer. Here’s a short round-up […]

Liberals tend to be insufferable when they feel like they’re really losing and when they feel like they’re really winning. When the left feels like they’re losing, they get ugly and paranoid. They start talking about Nazis, being put in camps, conspiracy theories, and the start projecting their little fascist fantasies onto conservatives. However, the […]

Late last night, I polled RWN’s readers on who won the 3rd debate. Here’s how it turned out, McCain: 69% (330) Obama: 24% (117) Debate? What? Who?: 7% (33)

There are bad ideas… It must rank among the most unusual tattoos in the world. Apprentice tattooist Jack Newton has had Professor Stephen Hawking’s face imprinted on his right leg. The image was inked on by his colleague and mentor Stewart Francis at the Angelic Hell studio in North Road, Brighton. The text below the […]

8:56: Normally, my co-bloggers Melissa Clouthier and Katie Favazza do the liveblogging, but Katie is all mopey and Melissa is ralphing up her lunch, so the duty falls to me. 8:57: I haven’t been a big fan of these debates so far because they mostly feature boring questions, both candidates repeating their standard stump lines, […]

Every now and then Dems forget the election isn’t over yet, and let loose with what they really think. A quote from Democrat Parker Griffith, who’s running for Congress in Alabama, after he was asked about the threat posed by radical Islam: I think America’s greatest enemy is America and its materialism … we have […]

Delusion, thy name is Democrat. Here are tolerant West Siders cheering jeering McCain-Palin supporters: In one of Barack Obama’s ads, he talks about thinking about the working man, every single day. That his motivation is to help them. That would be nice, if liberal policies ever helped the middle class. The kind of society that […]

The recent economic turmoil and the terrifying possibility that Barack Obama could actually be elected President aren’t bad news for everyone. The US Communist Party is delighted. At the party’s New York headquarters, regional party chairman Libero Della Piana crows: We are very excited, we feel that we are at a turning point. We can […]

Yesterday, I promised to buy a hard copy of the Enquirer and follow up on the story about Obama’s mentor and father figure, Frank Davis. Well, long story short, usually the Enquirer just does a teaser on the web and saves a lot of the juicy details for the print edition — this time, not […]

Christopher Buckley, the scion of William F. Buckley is now out as a writer at National Review after submitting his resignation in the wake of a vacuous column he wrote endorsing Barack Obama. Here’s his take on the situation, “Within hours of my endorsement appearing in The Daily Beast it became clear that National Review […]

This week’s Right Wing News Radio show on blogtalkradio sounded really good — at least I think so. I talked about Barack Obama, Sarah Palin, the campaign, the future of the Republican Party, intellectualism, and moderate Republicans vs. conservatives. Also, if you’re a regular RWN reader and are wondering what happened to the “PETA” and […]

If you’ve been a long time reader of Right Wing News, you know I have a mixed opinion of George Bush. Well, today I decided to go ahead and tell you exactly what I think of him so that no one can say I withheld it until after the election. First off, I don’t regret […]

Will the sweltering heat of global warming every stop? This collection of headlines from the Drudge Report says, “Yeah, even if we weren’t already there, we’re pretty much there now”… Will the lack of actual global warming ever actually have any impact on the Chicken Littles declaring that global warming is going to kill us […]

Forget Jeff Foxworthy, that’s too low-brow, Rethuglican humor for ya’ll. Enter the erudite Dr. Obama. You might be a socialist….. ……if you believe in the redistribution of wealth. Obama said to a small business owner yesterday and Rachel Lucas reports: “It’s not that I wanna punish your success, I just wanna make sure that everybody […]

Listen to this week’s edition of Right Wing News Radio, which is on blogtalkradio. It was 30 minutes of smack talk about Barack Obama, Sarah Palin, the campaign, the future of the Republican Party, intellectualism, and a few other assorted sundry topics. Don’t miss it!

How much of the Barack Obama lovefest is rooted in Baby Boomer narcissism? That’s the question that occurred to me while contemplating why so many in the generation ahead of mine seemed so excited and irrationally so, about Barack Obama or even Hillary Clinton becoming president. The worship takes turns both comical and disturbing. The […]

As should be obvious by now, just claiming that a politician was “associated” with someone isn’t resonating with undecided voters. As Jennifer Rubin points out at Commentary, it has to be taken one step further and tied to actions and activities surrounding that association. So the way to tie Ayers to Obama isn’t necessarily to […]
