Better Late Than Never: GWB

Better Late Than Never: GWB gave his long awaited speech about a “provisional Palestinian state” and took a much more uncompromising stance with the Palestinians than was anticipated…. “I call on the Palestinian people to elect new leaders, leaders not compromised by terror. I call upon them to build a practicing democracy, based on tolerance […]

The Return Of Bin Laden:

The Return Of Bin Laden: According to the Daily Mirror… “Osama bin Laden is to give another televised address to the world. The al-Qaeda leader is to deliver a hate-filled video on July 4, American Independence Day. The announcement was made on the Arabic Sahab website which issues daily information on the war in Afghanistan.” […]

These Guys Are Too Funny

These Guys Are Too Funny To Labor In Obscurity: I never see anyone else link the “Daily Wonk List” which is odd because it’s a hilarious and regularly updated page. They basically do top 10 lists for all sort of political topics. Here’s a little taste of some of their recent stuff… Differences Between the […]

Bush Plan for Palestinian Statehood

Bush Plan for Palestinian Statehood Questioned: To be completely honest, I have no idea where Bush is even coming from with whole ridiculous idea of setting up a “provisional state.” What the hell is a “provisional state” supposed to even be and how does it help the current situation? It doesn’t deal with the thorny […]

Gulf War Nostalgia: P.J. O’Rourke

Gulf War Nostalgia: P.J. O’Rourke was in the Middle East during the Gulf War and he wrote about it in his fantastic book “Give War a Chance.” Here’s a description of what the celebration in Kuwait was like after we kicked the Iraqis out of the country… “(S)ix hours after the U.S. declared a cease-fire, […]

The 5 Stages of War

The 5 Stages of War Grief: Most people have heard of the “5 stages of grief” you go through when something tragic happens. So if your dog dies, you go through denial and Isolation, anger, bargaining, depression, and acceptance. But the Vodka Pundit explains that the steps are a little different during a war… “1) […]

We Return Monday: RWN doesn’t

We Return Monday: RWN doesn’t update on the weekends so you’ll have to go somewhere else to get your Conservative news fix for a couple of days. Have a great weekend and I’ll see you on Monday…

What Is Britain Teaching It’s

What Is Britain Teaching It’s Children?: I can hardly believe the results of a poll that asks how young Brits feel about their country… “Two out of every three young Britons feel ashamed of their nationality, in part because of violence and hooliganism, according to a magazine survey published on Thursday. …Over 83 percent of […]

You Put Your Left Foot

You Put Your Left Foot In, You Take Your Right Foot Out, That’s What The Weasel Dance Is All About!: Well, well, well, Yasser Arafat now says that he’s ready “to accept a Mideast peace plan put forward by then-U.S. President Bill Clinton in December 2000.” Of course, Arafat has about as much interest in […]

That’s The Dream: Cut On

That’s The Dream: Cut On The Bias made a post about being named RWN’s website of the day. In the comments section, a couple of people had interesting things to say. First off, Andrew from Dodgeblog actually was talking about the strategy he uses to get Glenn Reynolds to link him… “Congrats. THe trick to […]

Welcome To ‘Arafat Country’: I

Welcome To ‘Arafat Country’: I traipsed through the IslamiCity forums looking for lunatics and I did find a few. Unfortunately, the mods must heavily censor the topics because a lot of threads with controversial titles seemed to be missing posts. On the other hand, this forum doesn’t have the Isamo-Fascist overtones of the “Muslim Youth” […]

Better Than Monday Night Football:

Better Than Monday Night Football: I’m not a big fan of Dennis Miller and I thought he was terrible on MNF. However, he is a funny guy and when he’s on, he’s on. As evidence, I present these two quotes from his appearance on the Tonight Show…. — “And you know something, the American Civil […]

He ‘Krauthammers’ The Point Home…Ok,

He ‘Krauthammers’ The Point Home…Ok, So I Need A Better Title: I don’t really need to add a lot to what Charles Krauthammer says in his latest column about creating a provisional state for the Palestinians because it’s so blatantly, obviously, correct… “This rewarding of terrorism is not just a moral scandal. It is disastrous […]

Conservatism On The Net: I

Conservatism On The Net: I ran across a post by Brendan O’Neil about why “blogging seems to be a largely right-wing thing” and his conclusions couldn’t of been more wrong. First off, he’s totally out of step with the direction the country is moving in… “Over the past 10 to 15 years, traditional right-wing views […]

We Want The Praise, But

We Want The Praise, But Not The Bill: The McCain-Feingold Campaign Finance Reform Bill was an abomination that I still can’t believe President Bush signed. It was a lousy, unconstitutional bill, that really didn’t do anything but change where the money in politics was going too. Yet we were told this bill was going to […]

An Interview With Andrew Marlatt

An Interview With Andrew Marlatt Of SatireWire: I got together on ICQ with one of the net’s best political satirists, Andrew Marlatt of SatireWire. We talked about his new book, “Economy of Errors”, how he got SatireWire started and “sporn” among many other things. Read and enjoy.

Let Us Deal With The

Let Us Deal With The Way We Are Rather Than What We Hope To Be: Victor Davis Hansen, as always, is right on target with his latest editorial. There are a couple of passages that I thought were particularly noteworthy… “Who, after all, enjoys cynicism — much less the pessimistic acknowledgment that humankind is impressed […]

Why Is It That We

Why Is It That We Protect Other Nations, But Won’t Protect Our Own Borders?: “Conservative lawmakers called on President Bush to deploy thousands of troops along U.S. borders, saying the homeland security plan that the White House delivered yesterday to Congress would take years to crack down on illegal immigration.” “Lawmakers cited a report by […]

Fark Me One More Time:

Fark Me One More Time: I didn’t even submit Alan Caruba’s Smarter, Better & Home Schooled article to Fark when it came out because I didn’t think on article on home schooling would be controversial enough to get linked on Fark. I mean there are no boobies involved and no one is insulting France or […]

Soccer Psychosis: I ran across

Soccer Psychosis: I ran across an article today on Andrew Sullivan’s blog that was disturbing in so many ways. First of all, it goes into how unpatriotic most Europeans are… “In Britain, even what Americans would consider to be ordinary patriotism is often suspect. When Tony Blair first entered the prime minister’s residence in Downing […]

The Lone Ranger Philosophy: Europeans

The Lone Ranger Philosophy: Europeans are always calling Americans “cowboys” and saying that we think, “life is like a John Wayne movie.” I wish they were right because it would make the entire “War on Terrorism” a lot easier. Unfortunately, we seem bound and determined to play the part of the Lone Ranger while we […]

Right On Target: File 13’s

Right On Target: File 13’s Amish Tech Support riffs on Arafat’s claim that the fence the Israelis are building to stop suicide bombers in racist… “Yasser Arafat calling the Israeli defensive wall racist is like a black gangleader saying bulletproof glass at a convenience store is racist because it keeps him from robbing the store. […]

Farked Again: Nothing brings in

Farked Again: Nothing brings in the hits like Fark linkage and today they sent over a deluge of traffic by linking my “Imposed Settlement vs. Transfer” post. They’re also discussing the issue and have over 150 posts so far in the thread. Here’s the most entertaining post so far… Brisvegas_boy: “And welcome back to the […]

God Hates Cretins: If you’ve

God Hates Cretins: If you’ve cruised the internet thus far without running into the bear trap of hate called “God Hates F@gs“, consider yourself lucky. But since we here at RWN are dedicated to introducing our readers to the net’s worst creeps and hellholes, the tour wouldn’t be complete without stopping at GHF. God Hates […]

Europe Shocked As Its Citizens

Europe Shocked As Its Citizens Exhibit Human Nature: BERLIN — The assassination of the right-wing Dutch politician Pim Fortuyn and a series of mass shootings at a German school and at legislatures in Switzerland and France have shaken the European notion that such incidents can happen only in America.

Europe Sucks Up To The

Europe Sucks Up To The Axis Of Evil: Iran is the foremost sponsor of terrorism in the world. They’re ruled by oppressive mullahs who are desperately trying to stave off a revolution from within and fear (with good reason) a US attempt to forcibly overthrow their government. So how does Europe want to deal with […]

The Best Thing About The

The Best Thing About The World Cup: Americans are famously non-interested in soccer which is why it’s really amusing when we beat nations that live and die based on how well they do at the World Cup. Take Mexico for example… …after the second U.S. goal the crowd grew quiet, and as it became clear […]

Imposed Settlement vs. Transfer: Hubert

Imposed Settlement vs. Transfer: Hubert Vedrine, who we last heard from as he was ripping the “War on Terrorism” as being simplistic, has now come up with a solution to the Israeli/Palestinian problem… “President Bush, who says he wants to seize the initiative in the Middle East, should impose a peace settlement. …To succeed he […]

Joke Of The Day: A

Joke Of The Day: A salty Navy Chief and a crusty Marine First Sergeant are at a bar arguing about who had the tougher career. “I did 30 years in the Recon,” the Marine declared proudly, “and fought in three of my country’s wars. Fresh out of boot camp, I hit the beach at Okinawa, […]
