Question: “Should Condi Rice be allowed to “flick off” a congressional subpoena? In response to the subpoena she said: “This is an issue that has been answered and answered and answered.” Shall we allow her to decide which subpoena she will respond to and which she won’t. Is she above the law?” — CardsFan Answer: […]

Conservatives and liberals approach almost every issue with completely different philosophies, underlying assumptions, and methods. That’s why it’s so hard to find genuine compromise between conservatism and liberalism — because not only are liberals almost always wrong, their solutions almost always make things worse. With that in mind, let me take a few moments to […]

today is Q&A Friday #64 at RWN. So, if there’s a subject you’ve been wanting me to tackle or an issue you want to hear my opinion on, just ask your question in the comments section. Your question can be about politics, ideology, history, blogging, RWN, from a liberal, conservative, or libertarian perspective; heck, it […]

This poll would seem to indicate that we’ve got a much bigger problem with the Islamic world than a few extremists at the fringes causing trouble (which is, let’s face it, no big surprise to most people) “More than 70 percent of Egyptians, Pakistanis, Indonesians and Moroccans believe the United States is trying to weaken […]

Well, I suppose this was just a matter of time until one of the netroots loonies compared Bush to Cho Seung-Hui. After all, once you’ve decided that Bush is Hitler, pretty much every other rotten person in the universe would seem to be fair game. From Margaret Kimberley at the Smirking Chimp, “Senator John McCain […]

What America is doing in Iraq is eeeeevvvvvviiillll — or so says Daily Kos diarist Welshman. Is it any big surprise that liberals are rooting for America to lose in Iraq when they believe that what we’re doing there is evil? By the way, the “I hate America” sentiment is apparently running high at the […]

“Last week a series of coordinated suicide bombings killed more than 170 people. The victims were not soldiers or government officials but civilians — innocent men, women and children indiscriminately murdered on their way home from work and school. If such an atrocity had been perpetrated in the United States, Europe or Israel, our response […]

Ok, see if you can figure out what’s wrong with this statement. “We can build a new model for attention to the health needs of Mexican workers here,” said Jose Angel Cordova Villalobos, appointed by Mexico’s new president, Felipe Calderon. Now, what’s wrong this statement. I’ll tell you; he’s making it in San Francisco. Here’s […]

“(H)as anyone else noticed the public expressions of shame and contrition from the Korean-American community after the Virginia Tech shooting? Of course, no one blames this exemplary community for the actions of one nut. The Koreans are manifestly law-abiding and decent — nipping at the heels of Italians as the greatest Americans and tied for […]

The left-wing conspiracy theorist, formerly known as the “Queen of Nice,” has left The View, supposedly because contract negotiations broke down. According to Rosie, the problem was that ABC wanted her for 3 years and she only wanted to do one more year and it certainly had nothing to do with quotes like these, “You […]

Bill Moyers is doing a special to promote a line of self-serving, liberal propaganda that has been kicking around for a couple of years: that the mainstream media wasn’t tough enough in the run up to the war in Iraq. Here’s Tom Shales with some of the “highlights” from this claptrap, “Perhaps the truth shall […]

The Huffington Post, as a publicity stunt, invited all the Republican contenders in 2008 to participate in a debate. The idea here is that when they turn the HuffPo down, libs can say, “See, Democrats didn’t want to go on Fox and Republicans didn’t want to go on the Huffington Post.” The leftward leaning Politico […]

When I heard that the Va. Tech shooter was supposedly obsessed with the movie Oldboy, it caught my eye, because at one point, I had that movie in my queue at Netflix. However, I’d never gotten around to watching it because it was the 2nd part of a “revenge” trilogy (Along with Sympathy for Mr. […]

“It would appear that the great divide in both public opinion and between politicians is not Republican-Democrat, liberal-conservative, pro or anti-Bush, or even pro or anti-war (or, in Europe: pro-or anti-American). Rather, the great divide is between those, such as me, who believe that the rise of radical Islam poses an existential threat to Western […]

Long story short: I went to the doctor yesterday because of a problem with my leg and it turned out that I had an infection beneath the skin. So, the Doc prescribed an antibiotic called Keflex, which she told me to get at Wal-Mart because it was incredibly cheap. So, how cheap was it? Well, […]

Remember Naomi Wolf, the feminist who taught Al Gore how to act like a man or in femspeak, an “alpha male?” Well, she’s back and it looks like she’s so eaten up with Bush Dementia syndrome that she’s having a public mental meltdown and claiming George Bush is turning America into a fascist society. Now, […]

Given how they come into our country in the first place, it’s hardly surprising that so many illegal aliens turn out to be criminals. In fact, illegals commit so much crime in this country that they constitute 25% of the federal prison population. Just think about how Americans have been raped, robbed, and murdered simply […]

“This is leftism’s great strength: it’s all white lies. That’s its only advantage, as far as I can tell. None of its programs actually works, after all. From statism and income redistribution to liberalized criminal laws and multiculturalism, from its assault on religion to its redefinition of family, leftist policies have made the common life […]

If Hillary and Company have their way and we end up with socialized medicine in this country, this is the sort of price we’ll end up paying for “free” health care, “A pensioner will have to lose his sight in one eye before health chiefs will consider treating him, a leading charity for the blind […]

Naturally, on the day I was out, enviro-loonie Sheryl Crow went insane and started suggesting that people wipe their behinds with a single sheet of toilet paper and wipe their mouths after dinner with their dress sleeves. Now, you may wonder; how does Crow get by on a single sheet of toilet paper? Well, there’s […]

There has been a lot of discussion in the political wonk circles of late about why the left is outperforming the right in fund raising online. Well, at the end of the 2006 election cycle, I created Rightroots, and with the help of some dedicated people (Mary Katharine Ham, Rob Bluey, Erick Erickson, Ed Morrissey, […]

According to San Francisco mayor Gavin Newsom, federal laws no longer apply when it comes to illegal immigrants: city employees have been forbidden to make arrests or assist with immigration enforcement in any way, the San Francisco Chronicle reported. Mayor Gavin Newsom vowed Sunday to maintain San Francisco as a sanctuary for immigrants and do […]

John Walker Lindh… victimized… because he turned down the opportunity to be tried under the relatively more lenient system of military commissions at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba: On the other hand, two men accused of quite similar conduct managed to make much better deals. They had the good fortune, it turned out, to be held by […]
