When Maureen Dowd decides to diss a Democrat, one who has had presidential asspirations and was, in fact, very popular in the Nutroots prior to Barry’s Messianic ascendancy, well, you know it just can’t be good. The substance of her column is The stunning admission Edwards made to ABC’s Bob Woodruff, and in a written […]

The Democratic Party platform will include "guaranteed" health care for all, the AP is reporting today. It’s not clear how Dems plan to achieve this.  A proposal to mandate a single-payer, governmental-run system has been defeated, for now. But "guaranteed" means "guaranteed," as in "even if you refused to pay for your own health coverage, […]

She released a statement vowing to stand behind her man: Our family has been through a lot.

The Nazis and communists are gone now, yet totalitarianism has returned to Germany.

Question: “Compromise on Drilling: In today’s “Drill and Conserve“, Charles Krauthammer called for both drilling, conservation and pursuing alternative energy sources.

Question: What do you think will actually happen in the election? Posted by RtWingNtCase Answer: The election will be nearly as close as 2000. McCain will win by a hair. Oh, and no matter who wins in 2008, Immigration Reform will be one of the first issues.

Question: This question is for Melissa: Inevitably, presidential electoral contests will always find someone raising the issue of the overall attractiveness of the presidential candidates. And I’m not talking about attractiveness only regarding ideology or policy, but the whole package: physical attributes, comportment, charisma, intellect, etc. A package that might find someone, even if not […]

Question: Could you explain to me why conservatives who believe abortion is murder make an exception for rape? I recognize the trauma of raising a baby that was produced through rape but that doesn’t justify murdering a child. Thank you.” — McCain-Obama08 Answer: I don’t want to speak for all conservatives on rape and abortion, […]

Question: “What do you think about the contention being thrown around by the left that Obama’s lead in the polls is understated because the polls use turnout assumptions that understate black and young-voter turnout this time. Conservatives are used to left-leaning bias in political polls. Usually a 3% to 4% “lead” for the Dem translates […]

Question: “I have noticed that, over the past year, there seems to have been a precipitous drop in the number of comments posted at RWN. What is the reason for that?

Here’s an email I received today. It was one line and summed up the Left quite nicely, so I thought I’d share: “It’s hillarious how terrified all you right wingnuts are of an intelligent, black man!” Yes, well, it’s hilarious how liberals can’t find their spell-checker, but I digress. Here is my response to this […]

This horrific event […]

Enviromoonbats have exactly one thing going for them. Their antihuman ideology is very trendy, which guarantees the support of our shallow media, entertainment, and political establishments. Fortunately, fashion is a flower that doesn’t bloom for very long. Alice Thompson reports that being green isn’t cool anymore: Julie Burchill can’t stand them. According to her new […]

Bizarrely, the McCain campaign is encouraging people to spam the comment sections of blogs with John McCain talking points in return for “McCain Online Action Center” points. What a great idea, right? I mean, everybody loves spammers on the net! Oh, wait…no, they don’t. Also, what exactly is accomplished by posting off topic talking points […]

Back on July 30th, I wrote, ……..Which brings us to the Democratic National Convention next month. Certainly John Edwards would have been expected to speak prior to the Rielle Hunter affair breaking publicly and with Edwards denying it, the MSM covering it up, and the lefty bloggers defending him, you’ve got to wonder if he’ll […]
