Tim Russert Dead At 58

Wanted to pass along this sad news: Tim Russert collapsed at work and later died from cardiac arrest. I’m so sorry for his family. Life, even a long one, is short. He was 58 years old. A quick note–Tim Russert always struck me as fair-minded and incisive. He seemed to be one of the few […]

Jodie Evans of Code Pink Raising Money for Obama

Here’s a small surprise: Jodie Evans, cofounder of the ultra-Left outfit Code Pink, is now bundling for the Obama campaign. Just as Code Pink raised $600,000 for the Islamic terrorists killing American troops in Fallujah, Evans has promised to raise $50,000 for BHO. Here’s Evans presenting al Qaeda’s case for the 9/11 atrocities: We had […]

The Progressive Agenda – Fair Warning

Billed as a “centerist agenda”, Chris Bowers of Open Left lists the “legislation that is certain to pass if Obama wins the White House, we pick up 20 more seats in the House, and 8 more seats in the Senate.” 1. H.R. 1591, U.S. Troop Readiness, Veterans’ Care, Katrina Recovery, and Iraq Accountability Appropriations Act, […]

Tackling 5 Modern Myths Created By Liberals

In recent years, liberals have mastered the art of lying. A lefty blog writes a story, then two dozen other blogs pick-up. Next thing you know, the libs in the mainstream media are echoing the charges that started in the blogosphere without mentioning that they’re false. At that point, we’re in a Catch-22 because liberals […]

Obama Hasn’t Always Wanted to Surrender in Iraq

Good news for anyone who doesn’t want Iraq to degenerate into a terror-sponsoring Iranian proxy state, so that our troops will have fought and died for nothing: But what he’ll say next is anyone’s guess. Here’s what it says on his website: Obama will immediately begin to remove our troops from Iraq. He will remove […]

Quote Of The Day: I Hate To Admit He’s Right, But…

“The 5-4 GITMO decision brings to the front, yet again, John McCain’s position on judges versus his own policies. McCain undoubtedly supports the 5-4 decision, yet the justices who voted against it, and argued strenuously against it, are of the kind McCain claims to want on the bench. We have seen the same issue arise […]

Dead Rise to Register as Democrats

Maybe there’s some truth to that voodoo stuff. Dead Democrats are rising from the dead to vote in Louisiana: Secretary of State Jay Dardenne said Tuesday he will meet today with a Democrat-affiliated group responsible for a voter registration effort that is inundating East Baton Rouge and other parish registrars with bogus and incomplete applications. […]

Shoot Mugabe Now

Can we just dispense with the formality of civil society and rid the world of this animal? This is what it means to be the political opposition in Zimbabwe: The men who pulled up in three white pickup trucks were looking for Patson Chipiro, head of the Zimbabwean opposition party in Mhondoro district. His wife, […]

The Libs On The Supreme Court Strike Another Blow For Terrorism

“While the form of treachery varies slightly from case to case, liberals always manage to take the position that most undermines American security.” — Ann Coulter Today in the Supreme Court, Americans lost and terrorists won, The Supreme Court ruled Thursday that foreign terrorism suspects held at Guantanamo Bay have rights under the Constitution to […]

Why we aren’t and won’t ever be oil independent

William Yeatman, an energy policy analyst for the Competitive Enterprise Institute asks: “How long can America, on the one hand, say, ‘We’re sick and tried of high gasoline prices,’ and on the other hand say, ‘We’re not going to do anything about it; we’re not going to tap our own resources?’” Yeatman said. “We’re going […]

Follow-Up: Marine Suspended. Puppy Was Alive?

Back in March, I wrote about David Motari, the Marine who very foolishly allowed himself to be videotaped throwing a puppy off a cliff in Iraq. There was a lot of debate on whether or not the puppy was alive or not. I came down on the fake side, “My verdict? I’m leaning towards fake. […]

Michelle Obama’s Baby’s Daddy

There’s a big stink because Fox News ran a segment about Michelle Obama and the caption included the words “Barack Obama’s Baby Mama”. One could argue that the phrase further dumbs down the American language and is a racial epithet unsuitable for prime time. Or, one could argue that the hip hop culture has come […]

Barack Obama: The Abortion Promoting Candidate For Pro-Lifers?

Even on the left side of the blogosphere, where tortured reasoning has been elevated to an art form, seldom have I ever seen anything that can top this rigmarole from Cristina Page at the HuffPo, Obama: The Real Pro-Life Candidate Obama has a huge opportunity to win over an unlikely voting bloc: pro-life voters. The […]

Obama’s Baby Mama By James Joyner

Today’s Manufactured Outrage of the Day is that, on a mid-day Fox News program featuring Megyn Kelly and Michelle Malkin debating the impact of Michelle Obama on the race, the production assistant in charge of writing chyrons dubbed the would-be first Lady “Obama’s Baby Mama.” Apparently, this is a racial slur which suggests that she […]

Open Letter to John McCain

Dear Senator, Hello? Is anyone listening? I know it’s been a while since you’ve turned an ear to a conservative, John, but on behalf of those of us on the right, I’d like to say that we’re sick of taking the back seat when it comes to your political agenda. Despite all your talk as […]

Vegan Diet Deforms Little Girl’s Spine

As we’ve seen, raising children as vegans isn’t just moonbatty; it’s unethical. More evidence: A girl of 12 brought up by her parents on a strict vegan diet has been admitted to hospital with a degenerative bone condition said to have left her with the spine of an 80-year-old. Doctors are under pressure to report […]

Thoughts on the Iraqi SOFA agreement

SOFA stands for “Status of Forces Agreement” and we have 80 existing SOFA agreements currently with other nations where US troops are stationed. Iraq, of course, is under the microscope and naturally anything coming out of there that might reflect negatively gets a little air time. That’s not to say that the agreement and the […]

The NBA’s Culture of Corruption

Remember when that NBA referee got nailed for attempting to change the game’s outcome? Back then, I wrote in a post titled Tim Donaghy Did Not Act Alone: Let me make a few predictions: Tim Donaghy did not act alone. It is nearly impossible for one ref to destroy the flow of a game. Many […]

Rancher Wins Claim against Forest Service Thugs

At last a little good news: A judge awarded more than $4.2 million to a late Nevada rancher’s estate after finding that the U.S. Forest Service engaged in an unconstitutional “taking” of water rights out of hostility to the rancher, a property rights activist. Wayne Hage bought the Pine Creek Ranch in central Nevada in […]
