Dr. Helen notes that the kvetching by Republicans just might create what we fear most: Believing that your party is a bunch of losers surely will not help it to improve it and may, in fact, hasten it’s self-destruction–something some Democrats would be happy to see–but why play along while marching in step to the […]

You are not seriously sitting out the election or voting for a Democrat are you? John Hawkins, as you’ve read here is done. Ace is flipping his lid too: Or perhaps it’s simpler: John McCain is unfailingly honorable; if he acts in a way that seems to be dishonorable, you must be perceiving it incorrectly, […]

Yesterday, I read John Hawkin’s interview with the anonymous campaign staffer. The more I read, the madder I got. At the end, through IM poor John got sprayed with my vented spleen. If that sounds horrible, it was. He said,”Wow, you’re in a bad mood.” Actually, no I’m not. I’m in a great mood. I’m […]

I’ve never been a fan of John McCain. Not only is he not a conservative, he may have done more damage to the conservative movement than any other Republican over the last few years. Look back at the Gang-of-14, global warming, McCain-Feingold, coddling terrorists at Gitmo, illegal immigration — on and on and on, and […]

Figuring out who John McCain is going to select as a Vice-President this far out is very difficult not just because Johnny Mac really is a maverick who could make an unpredictable choice, but because there are so many different directions he can go in. Will he choose a Vice-President who can help him patch […]

“You cannot emulate any time in American history. You cannot try to premise your actions on Reagan. ‘He did this, so he’d do this.’ It’s the fundamental principles that Reagan brought to the table that are applicable to our globalized generation and the challenges we face.” — House Republican Policy Committee Chairman, Thaddeus McCotter Ronald […]

Yesterday, I polled RWN’s readers on the following question, “Although all of these may be important issues to you, what’s the issue that you currently put the highest priority on?” Here’s how the 827 answers broke down. Improving education: 0% Securing the border with amnesty: 0% Cleaning up the environment: 0% Reducing health care costs: […]

A couple of days ago, I put together a group of 10 Obama bumper stickers and let RWN’s readers vote on their faves. Almost a 1000 of your voted and here were your top three choices. In third place, with 20% of the vote, In second place, with 22% of the vote, Lastly, in first […]

Jeb Hensarling, over at the very conservative Republican Study Committee, outlined an agenda he thinks that the House Republicans should pursue. Here it is, AN ACTION PLAN FOR HOUSE REPUBLICANS: BOLD, SIMPLE, AND DIFFERENT THAN THE DEMOCRATS 1) THE END OF PORK-BARREL SPENDING House Republicans are committed to ending pork-barrel spending. We will not wait […]

A Texas appellate court says that the removal of the kids from their moms is unlawful. I wonder if that means the 15 year old moms married to 50 year old men, too. Holy f*ck what a disgusting mess. There is just something about seeing these moronic Little House on the Prairie women running out […]

Gateway Pundit reports that a 22 year old WHITE man exploded his face a bit when his suicide vest prematurely activated in the loo. Aw…. Let the significance of this sink in. Imagine a society where every person becomes a suspect. Oh wait, we don’t have to. Israel lives with these threats every day. Why […]

Unlike Senator Obama, my admiration, respect and deep gratitude for America’s veterans is something more than a convenient campaign pledge.” — John McCain

If the Right is apathetic, the Left is apoplectic. I’ve been ruminating on the implications for the country whether Barack Obama or Hillary Clinton get the nomination. To me, Hillary Clinton is the harder candidate to beat in the general election. She is perceived as more centrist and has done a pretty good job casting […]

Via my buddy and co-bloger Melissa Clouthier, here’s Megan Mcardle, Are conservatives out of ideas? Liberals got made when this question was asked about them four years ago. But I’ll admit it–in my opinion, the conservatarian coalition is basically out of ammo. A basic commitment to free markets was enough to hold the coalition together […]

Last week, after a teleconference with John McCain, I wrote that I was asking the campaign the following question and would post their answer to RWN, Mr. McCain, let me read something you were quoted as saying a few days ago, “We get in this kind of a circular firing squad on immigration reform in […]

I had an instant messenger conversation with one of the many aides in Congress that I know about the funk conservatives are in. Here’s an edited transcript of our conversation, which I published with permission, that you may find interesting. John Hawkins: The thing to keep in mind is though, in my experience, is that […]

As I mentioned earlier in the week, Right Wing News is going through some changes. Let me give a short update on what’s happening. First of all, this is now a group blog that is going to feature the following writers, Monday through Friday RWN will feature a heavy helping of my writing and a […]

The extremely unconvincing “sex change” dude vs. the offended, beligerent Muslim. Just another day in England. Why is it that the “women” who are “trapped” in all these men’s bodies are always so butt ugly when they’re finally “set free”? This content was used with the permission of Five Feet of Fury.

Last night, late, after American Idol and the delight in David Cook’s success, after the news, a friend, her kids and her kid’s friends showed up at the door and kidnapped me. The destination? The opening show, 12:01 a.m., of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Well, I wanted to to see […]

Megan McArdle asks: Are conservatives out of ideas? Um, no. But the conservatives aren’t running the Republican party right now. Neither are the libertarians. Right now, fat, happy, pseudo-dems are running the party and the only ideas they possess come from the Democrats. It’s called liberalism lite and it sucks. Megan posits that some are […]

There’s this thing about young voters. Most of them are liberal, mostly because most of them have had limited exposure to national politics, and because most of them get that limited exposure in political science classes taught by people who study political theory for twenty years before they impart their hard-earned wisdom onto our youth, […]

Take a looksie at all the Obama bumper stickers and pick your fave! What’s your favorite Obama bumper sticker? Hope. Change. White Guilt. Change. Hope. Socialism. That’s a Distraction! Ayers. Wright. Rezko. Arugula. Nibbling. Elitist. Make my wife proud! Vote race. Not gender. Not age. Expunge the guilt! It’s the Wright thing to do! Hope […]

Imagine having this nightmare staring back at you from your own arm every day. Of course, it could be worse. Hat tip to my buddy Em Zanotti from the American Princess, who should be doing her first regular guest posts on RWN starting today.

Bloggers live glamorous lives. We’re like Hollywood starlets except were older, don’t shower often and wear pajamas to the grocery store. Wait, that’s just like a Hollywood starlet. While I sit here cranking out the content, one of my progeny uses me as a jungle gym when he’s not watching Disney Channel or Noggin. I […]

Over at the Daily Kos one of the diarists, “One Citizen,” actually put this photoshop together, Wow. Setting aside the fact that the Klan was essentially an arm of the Democratic Party for most of its existence, that the only former Klan member in Congress is a Democrat, and that even today, the socialistic, virulently […]
