Frosted Flakes: Breakfast of a Capitalist

Forget the breakfast of Champions, Michael Phelps, by choosing to hawk Frosted Flakes, promotes the triumph of capitalism. Endorsements….they’re GRRRRRREAT! Not that there’s anything wrong with that. In fact, I’m happy for Phelps and hope he makes a gazillion dollars. But some people are clucking about Phelps’ choice: You better eat your . . . […]

And The Barack Obama Height Of Arrogance Award Goes To…

Jennifer Lopez for allegedly saying that she, “couldn’t understand why everyone is talking about that swimmer,” according to a GMA source. “She couldn’t come up with (eight-time gold-medal winner Michael) Phelps’ name, and then she yammered on about how she was the one training for a triathlon just six months after giving birth, and how […]

Russia Vs. Georgia?

Over at the Wall Street Journal, Soviet foreign minister Sergey Lavrov writes, However, it must be remembered that, as between any other major world powers, our bilateral relationship can only advance upon the basis of reciprocity. And that is exactly what has been missing over the past 16 years. I meant precisely that when I […]

Irony Alert By Betsy Newmark

The campaign of Bob Barr, the Libertarian candidate, resorted to the courts to try to get admitted to the Saddleback Forum. So the Libertarians think that the federal courts should tell a private church and pastor whom they can invite to a political discussion. And I’m sure they’ll be trying the same thing when it […]

Questions about Obama’s Chances Begin

David Gergen, of all people, notes one of the outcomes from Saddleback which have to have the Obama campaign concerned: Heading into the candidates’ appearances on Saturday night at Saddleback Church, the conventional wisdom in politics was Barack Obama should have a clear upper hand in any joint appearance with John McCain — one the […]

Will Shrillary Rise From the Grave Next Week?

Jason Voorhees and Michael Myers don’t lie still and stay dead, why should Shrillary? WND quotes Washington Examiner political columnist Tony Campbell: I talked to a Clinton delegate here in Maryland. He told me they have been instructed to vote for Hillary (for president) on the first ballot. To make things more interesting, there is […]

A Place For Ugly Girls

I read this article and had to share it. The political incorrectness is delicious: The mayor of an Australian outback mining town has come under fire for urging unattractive women to move in, assuring them they will find a man because there is a shortage of women. John Moloney, mayor of Mount Isa in northwestern […]

Roseanne Barr Vs. Sanity

You know what the best liberal blog on the net is? No, it’s not the Daily Kos. The HuffPo? Not even close. How about Firedoglake? It’s not in the same ballpark. It’s actually Roseanne Barr’s blog. Why is it so great? Well, picture Kos sitting down to write for a couple of hours, but getting […]

McCain’s Pro-Abortion Veep?

According to the Politico, McCain is going to announce his Veep pick on August 29th, Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) plans to celebrate his 72nd birthday on Aug. 29 by naming his running mate at a huge rally in the battleground state of Ohio, Republican sources said. That’s a week from Friday, and the day after […]

Obama Wrapped in Upside-Down Flag

At last a little truth in advertising from the Dems. Check out this ticket design for the Democrat National Convention: As you can see, the Obamessiah appears to be wrapped in an inverted American flag. Moonbats are fond of hanging Old Glory upside down to display their contempt for it, though according to flag etiquette, […]

McCain’s Cross Story From The Saddleback Forum

There hasn’t been a lot of footage from the Saddleback forum out there, partially because McCain beat Obama’s brains in, which the media isn’t going to want to cover and partially because a lot of the best parts didn’t break easily down into soundbites. However, there is one moment from the event that I wanted […]

Welcome To Toss-Up Ville

Despite the fact that Barry is getting even more fawning coverage from the mainstream press than usual, is raking in the money, has more enthusiastic voters, and has the political winds at his back, he’s essentially tied with John McCain right now. Take a look at the latest numbers from Real Clear Politics and you’ll […]

The “She Woman Men Hater’s Club”

Michele Catalano wandered into a — I don’t know exactly how to describe it, other than a “man hating store” — and had a visceral, negative reaction to the experience, I don’t understand women who go out of their way to express their hatred of men. I have two ex husbands and I’m not anywhere […]

Illegal Alien Recruiting Ads By Mike Pechar

(Chiquimula, Guatemala) A local radio station is currently airing the following ad: “We offer trips to the north, in quality buses, and it is only necessary to walk one hour at the border with Mexico. We take you only if you have relatives in the U.S., but we guarantee your arrival.” The people traffickers then […]

Forget Global Warming, Here Comes Oxygen Depletion

With the wheels coming loose on the global warming hoax, it’s time for the Left to start hyping the next phony crisis. It shouldn’t be hard to find something scarier than warm weather. The Guardian‘s Peter Tatchell is floating oxygen depletion: Compared to prehistoric times, the level of oxygen in the earth’s atmosphere has declined […]

Do We Need To Know Why People Are Gay?

Note: For the record, I wrote this post before reading VanHelsing’s about Ellen and Portia’s “marriage”. It can be called a legal union, I suppose, but marriage is, by definition between a man and a woman. A union between three people, a person and a dog, a person and an inanimate object, etc. is not […]

Keeping an Eye on Georgia

One of the questions I’ve been asking since the Russian invasion of Georgia is how the necessary buildup and staging of troops by Russia could have been missed by Georgia. As I’ve noted before, unless troops are prepared and staged to go on order, an army cannot react in the time the Russians did. That […]

Ellen Degenerate Does Her Part

In today’s entertainment news, actress Ellen DeGeneres has taken advantage of the insanity in California to get married, sort of, to another woman. USA Today’s account is surreal: Add another celebrity wedding to the books for summer 2008. Ellen DeGeneres married longtime actress girlfriend Portia de Rossi at their home Saturday night in Los Angeles. […]

The Final Quick And Dirty Rundown On Obama’s VP Short List

Supposedly, Obama is going to announce his VP selection this week. That seems entirely possible and with that in mind, here’s a very quick, very dirty rundown on the names that are being floated, Joe Biden: Gaffe prone, but has foreign policy experience, is underrated as a speaker, and would be a reassuring old hand. […]

The Democratic Underground: The Anti-Religious Left

One thing conservatives like me have been pointing out again and again, is the Left is fiercely hostile to Christianity. That’s because, for the most part, the hard core Left, the ones with their hands on the levers of power in the Democratic Party at least, have far more atheists and agnostics in their ranks […]

Thought Of The Day: In The End…

In the end, what the election may come down to is McCain being clearly much more qualified to be President than Obama vs. Barry’s money, more enthusiastic voters, and a favorable political climate for Democrats. In other words, McCain may be flawed, but he’s far and away the best man for the job by a […]

Why It Makes Sense For The McCain Camp To Attack The Media

John McCain has always run an uneven campaign. At times, you sit there scratching your head for weeks at a time trying to figure out what he’s doing and then, next thing you know, his campaign starts looking like it’s run by some sort of hybrid clone of Lee Atwater, Karl Rove, and Ed Rollins. […]

RWN’s Slatecard Candidate Of The Week: Sean Parnell

On August 26th, Sean Parnell is going to be battling corrupt pork king, Don Young, in Alaska’s congressional primary. Keep in mind that not only is Young one of the biggest earmarkers in Congress, he’s also under investigation by the FBI. So, if he manages to beat Parnell, chances are that Young will — deservedly, […]

My latest column at Townhall, 25 Reasons You Might Be a Liberal, was the 2nd most forwarded and 3rd most read column at Townhall last week.
