This excerpt from the Iraqi Blog, “The Mesopotamian” is going to rankle Democrats even though everything in it is not just true, but painfully obvious to anyone who’s paying attention… “In case President Bush loses the election there would be a massive upsurge of violence, in the belief, rightly or wrongly, by the enemy, that […]

Earlier this year, I endorsed Democrat John Tanner for Congress in TN because his opponent was a nutjob, racist, crank. Well, what you’re about to read inspired me to endorse my second Democrat for Congress this year… “In a complaint to the Federal Elections Commission, the National Republican Campaign Committee accused radio station KFI-AM (640) […]

Someone named Peter sent me an email saying that he was doing interviews with Republicans for his newsletter. He didn’t tell me the name of the newsletter, but I thought I’d post his questions and my answers. Enjoy… Q: Why do you hate liberals? A: I don’t hate them. I just feel compelled to point […]

RWN Reader “Toejam” writes to say, “Dear John, Thought you might like to know your blog: “rightwingnews” and “instapundit” were mentioned in the Weekly business section [top, p-6] of “The Irish Times” Newspaper (Friday October 29, 2004). Unfortunately, the newspapers site (www.ireland.com) is pay per view or I’d attach a copy. As you might have […]

Mark Dubbin, the author of “Shadow Patriot” bought another main page ad on RWN to get the word out about his book. Here’s the description of it from Barnes & Noble… “The events of 9/11 affected many things in New York and the Mafia was no exception. Business suffered for Don Remondini after the attack, […]

John Kerry has been very successfully painted as a flip-flopper who changes his positions on the issues based on who he’s talking to and what the polls look like because…well…he is a a flip-flopper who changes his positions on the issues based on who he’s talking to and what the polls look like. I’ve harped […]

If you understand what Jonah Goldberg is talking about in this quote from his latest column, then at the most fundamental level, you understand the war on terrorism… “If you live in a house infested by rats, you may think it’s OK to tolerate them for a while. They’re just a “nuisance,” as John Kerry […]

I have to admit, I thought Osama died back at Tora Bora and I’m quite surprised that he has done his first new video since December of 2001. On the one hand, I am of course displeased that old weird beard is still breathing air. On the other hand, since he is alive, I can […]

Here’s an interesting coincidence many of you may not be aware of… “(T)here is a 100 percent correlation between the Washington Redskins win-loss record and the outcome of every presidential contest dating back to 1940. If the Redskins win their last home game prior to Election Day, the party in power stays in power. Conversely, […]

Like I’ve said before, I don’t generally read Andrew Sullivan’s tortured ramblings anymore. Ever since Sullivan decided that W’s support for a Constitutional Amendment to protect marriage made him an unacceptable candidate, his writing — while eloquent as always — has been a trainwreck in the logic department. As you read Sullivan’s musings, you almost […]

— The left’s favorite pollster is John Zogby not only because his polls lean to the left, but because he has been openly telling anyone who’ll listen that this race is Kerry’s to lose. Well, according to Robert Novak, Zogby has changed his tune… “Pollster John Zogby surprised the political world back in April with […]

I will be updating throughout the day as documents are verified and coffee grounds removed.) FLORIDA CAR ARREST MAY PORTEND SUPPRESSION OF SENIOR VOTE Attorneys for the Florida Kerry-Edwards […]

As most of you have probably heard some lunatic nearly ran down Katherine Harris and some of her supporters with his car and then called it “political expression”. Here are some of the details… “Witnesses told police a silver Cadillac sped through an intersection and hurtled onto a sidewalk, heading straight toward Harris before swerving […]

In their latest column, John Micklethwait and Adrian Wooldridge argue that Bush has changed conservatism. I can’t say that I agree with them and there are two points in particular that I take issue with. The first is the whole concept of “big government conservatism,” but I’ve addressed that issue in some detail before. Then […]

A thought: Could it be that the sort of person likely to be “intimidated” out of voting isn’t in general the sort of person who you want to be voting? A lot of the coverage, both formal and informal, of the forthcoming apocalypse in Ohio strikes me as implicitly accepting a really quite stupid bit […]

President George Bush today admitted that his Democrat rival is correct in saying that Mr. Bush is “hiding bad news” until after the polls close next Tuesday. “My opponent speaks the truth when he says that some Americans are going to get some bad news–maybe even before the sun comes up on November 3,” said […]

I don’t normally read Andrew Sullivan anymore unless I want to see what the other side is doing, but Sully has finally “officially” endorsed Kerry. Sure, once Bush came out for a Constitutional Amendment to protect marriage everyone knew which way Sullivan would go and for all intents and purposes Sully endorsed Kerry back in […]

What sort of degenerates would make Nazi toys for kids? Unfortunately, that’s not a hypothetical question and justification they used for making the toys? Oh, good grief, it’ll make your head hurt… “Dolls depicting members of a Nazi SS combat division originally created to guard concentration camps are now available in Canadian stores. …The `Totenkopf […]

Hat tip to Registered Media for the funny graphic.

Here in North Carolina, they have early voting and I took the opportunity to pull the lever for the GOP (and against every bond issue). I know a lot of people have complained about early voting problems, but everything went smooth as silk for me today. I hit a polling place about 5 miles from […]

When Iraqi military interrogators informed the imprisoned Saddam Hussein that 377 tons of explosives had disappeared from a huge weapons storage facility, the former Iraqi president expressed concern that the extremely powerful chemical agents might “fall into the wrong hands.” His remarks bolstered claims by Democrat presidential candidate John Forbes Kerry that President George Bush […]

(*** For this post, I’m going to cover a variety of different topics in three sentences or less ***) — Here are the latest poll numbers from the two key states in the Presidential election. Florida: Zogby – Bush +1, Survey USA – Kerry +2, CNN/USAT/Gallup – Bush +8, Rasmussen – TIE, SPT/Miami Herald – […]

After reading through a series called “The Rise of Pseudo Fascism” on a lefty blog called Orcinus, I wanted to give a relatively short and sweet response to the idea that Conservatives are “pseudo-Fascists” or desire some sort of Fascist state. Usually, I just point out how crazy that idea is and leave it at […]
