Will Hillary Drop Out After Tuesday’s Primaries?

The International Herald Tribune reports: WASHINGTON: Top supporters of Senator Barack Obama, joined by at least one prominent but uncommitted Democrat, raised the pressure Sunday on Senator Hillary Clinton to bow out of the presidential nominating race if she fails to score clear victories in two big-state primary contests Tuesday. “I just think that D-Day […]

Sometimes you can just over-analyze something

And that seems to be the case with a bunch of feminists who got together to discuss Hillary, Barack, progressive politics and the state of feminism for The Nation. First noting that while they were “diverse”, they were still all “progressive” (yay for that), but they wondered why it was that the selection process for […]

Looking Toward The General Election

The day of doom is upon Hillary Clinton. Here in Texas, her strength is in doubt. If I’m to believe the local news reports, Obama’s messianic message (not) taps a deep well here and he has solid support in the cities. I’m not thinking about March 5 right now. It almost doesn’t matter. Clinton and […]

John McCain’s Catch-22

John McCain is in a terrible Catch-22. He has gotten this far in his political career by punching conservatives in the teeth for the amusement of the mainstream media, which has repaid him for the entertainment by treating him with kid gloves and hyping him as a principled maverick. But now that McCain has captured […]

Rumor: FISA Deal Reached in the House

There is a rumor floating around thats got the hard left upset. To break an impasse over legislation overhauling the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, House Democratic leaders are considering the option of taking up a Senate-passed FISA bill in stages, congressional sources said today. Under the plan, the House would vote separately on the first […]

When does personal responsibility end?

Today, I’ve got an interesting question. On the right, you tend to hear a lot about the virtue of personal responsibility. We stress it and emphasize it to seemingly no end. But at what point, if any, does personal responsibility end? The parents of Amanda Jax have filed a lawsuit against a nightclub Jax attended […]

The Bridge to Nowhere

David Ignatius at the Washington Post as whether Barack Obama is really a “bridge builder” who can reach across party lines and heal divisions. Not unless a bridge only has one end. Obama had the most liberal voting record of any Senator in 2007. (Gina Cobb’s website is here.)

A victory for Mark Steyn, and for all who value free speech

Steyn writes: I heard yesterday from across the Atlantic (I’m traveling in Europe) that the Ontario Human Rights Commission has declined to hear the Canadian Islamic Congress against Maclean’s on the grounds that they deal in denials of service on the basis of race, creed, etc, and a magazine is not a “service”. That’s certainly […]

Obama’s Brilliant Military Strategy: Cut and Run and Then Run Back

At the rate Barack Obama is going, his lack of qualification to serve as commander in chief of the U.S. armed forces will be painfully obvious long before November. The man has far too few carefully considered opinions and far too many shoot-from-the-hip-and-hope-it-sounds-good opinions. Unfortunately, that weakness seems to be shared by the advisors with […]

What Conservatism Can Do For America’s Middle Class

One of the smears that the Left often hurls at conservatives is that we’re only concerned about the rich. Of course, that’s not true; conservatives simply believe in an America where people should be able to get rich through their own efforts without having the fruit of their labor looted from them by cynical liberal […]

Q&A Friday: Favorite Movie Lines

Question: “My friends and I are total movie geeks. To the point where we routinely use lines (some of them deliberately obscure) from movies in everyday conversation. For example: If one of my boys says he needs somebody to help him move, the proper response would be: I’m your huckleberry. (Doc Holiday, Tombstone) Anywhoo, my […]

Q&A Friday #85: What Do We Do If Barack Wins?

Question: “I keep hoping for the best but planning for the worst: Assume Obama the messiah wins in November, and the democrats keep both the senate and the house. What will happen in the following 2 years and what can I do as an individual now to prepare? This would not involve fleeing to the […]

Hey, it would be really great if you could click on a few of my advertisers to show them that advertising on Right Wing News pays off for them. The more clicks they get, the better value they get for their money, the more likely they are to advertise here again… Link #1 Link #2 […]

Q&A Friday #85: Obama And McCain On Illegal Immigration

Question: “Is an amnesty easier to defeat under President McCain or President Obama? I hate the thought of either of those two as president.” — Thresher Answer: That’s a tricky question to answer because, #1) Amnesty would be more difficult to defeat under McCain because Republicans would feel a lot more pressure to go along […]

Q&A Friday #85: Liberals And Gun Control

Question: “What, in your estimation, will it take for 2nd Amendment loathing liberals to finally grasp the concept that banning guns is an ineffective policy?” — Good_Ol_Boy Answer: If liberals cared about whether the policies they supported worked or not, they’d end up dropping 90% of their agenda. Whether gun control works or not is […]

Q&A Friday #85: Could David Petraeus Be President?

Question: “A US Soldier currently deployed to the Iraq Theater of Operations and actively supporting Operation Iraqi Freedom, I have followed with great interest the rumors of General David H. Petraeus possibly running for President of the United States of America upon his retirement from the US Army. As you are a consistent blogger who […]

Q&A Friday #85: Why Are The Comments So Slow?

Question: “Here’s a question, John: do you have any plans to address the problems with the comments on RWN? First, we can’t post more than one embedded link without getting a message claiming that “the comment has been held pending approval by the blog owner.” Second, posted comments sometimes take up to twenty minutes to […]

A Teleconference With John McCain

Yesterday, I was in on another teleconference with John McCain. Unfortunately, I wasn’t given an opportunity to ask a question. Here’s the write-up of the teleconference. Keep in mind that these are notes, not quotes. Opening Statement Senator Obama’s said that he would go back to Iraq if Al-Qaeda has a base there. Well, they […]

Barack Hussein Obama

Since John McCain foolishly went overboard and attacked one of his own supporters for calling Barack Hussein Obama, Barack Hussein Obama, there’s been a controversy over his name. First off, just to be clear: Barack Hussein Obama is his name, just like George Herbert Walker Bush is George Bush’s full name or George Felix Allen […]

Rest In Peace, William F. Buckley

I don’t have anything to say about William F. Buckley’s passing that will surpass the eloquent tributes that are being posted all across the net on the Right, but I thought I should at least say a few words about the man. Long story short, Buckley was an enormously important figure who, through his efforts, […]
