Conservative Politics, Religion, Culture, and Anything Else
From the monthly archives:
Michael Griffin, NASA administrator, had the audacity to admit that global warming exists, but that the human impact is not important! Immediately, James Hansen, NASA’s climate guru and contributor to Algore’s “An Inconvenient Truth” popped a vein. Griffin’s point was that the Earth’s climate has been changing for 4.6 billion years and who are we to say [...]

It was bound to happen sooner or later. Universal Studios in Orlando is planning to open a 20-acre Harry Potter Theme Park. Don’t worry about it being tacky though. J.K. Rowling herself is overseeing details to ensure that the park actually resembles the wizarding world in which Harry lives.
This actually sounds fun. [...]

Ruth Bader Ginsburg is confused. I don’t mean confused in the way most liberals are, though she is. What I’m talking about is Ruth Biddy’s confusion over her role in our government. Perhaps it’s her age. Perhaps it’s her arrogance. Whatever the reason, Ginsburg seems to think she is a [...]

According to Politico.com, Fred Thompson is still thinking about running for President! (Big news, I know!) While Fred is polling very well and has raised lots of cash for someone not yet declared, the fact remains: Fred might still be just messing with us. He seems to be the only candidate everyone in the Republican base can [...]

As of this moment I’m now perfectly fine if Bush’s approval rating goes down lower than Truman, Nixon or Carter. That’s not a good group of Presidents to be associated with, but after statements like this, it’s coming. And if you read Newt’s statements half way through this New Yorker article he may have already “Jimmy Cartered” the Republican Party.

Hugo Chavez’s socialist paradise chimed another dong for dictatorship yesterday when at 12 o’clock midnight, the most popular, 53 year old Radio Caracas TV station was taken over by the government. It’s not so much that they were just anti-government, but allowed dissenting opinions to be aired without retribution. However, they did have a part to play [...]

While Memorial Day has become a beach holiday, “official start of summer”, a big retail sales day, and a weekend of blockbuster movies and barbecues, we sometimes forget that on this day we remember those who have fallen in the line of duty while defending our nation. They deserve our highest honor for making the [...]

Al Qaeda in Iraq had 42 prisoners that they were torturing (that’s real torture, mind you) and harming in many other ways. Locals apparently gave the US and Iraq forces the head’s up on where they were in another example of Iraqis seeing that as long as al-Qaeda’s hanging around, US troops are too. This [...]

Not exactly, the shore is usually a fun place, but a series of new laws and restrictions across the tourist-haven Jersey shore has been revealed this Memorial Day weekend. New laws restricting anything from no camels allowed to no having diarrhea in the water to no lewd sanddrawings to no digging holes all add to the “People’s Republic” mystique [...]

Still, newsrooms around the world still think it’s a story that Bill and She Who Must Not Be Named have had some marital difficulties in the past. However, new reports and books reported on by the UK Daily Mail indicate that Monica was not the first instance where Bill cheated on SWMNBN. I was just as shocked [...]

Today, Star Wars turned 30! On May 25, 1977, the movies changed forever and my childhood was full of a lot more imagination and fun! Back then, Jimmah Carter was President, America was still reeling from the Vietnam War, the economy was stagnant and gasoline cost way too much. Hairstyles were bad, disco was emerging and [...]

Ann Coulter once said “You must outrage the enemy. If you don’t leave liberals in a sputtering impotent rage, you’re not doing it right.” If this story is any indication, Elisabeth Hasselbeck is starting to do it right.
Rosie O’Donnell is not unique in her brand of liberalism. Uninformed on the issues and testy [...]

I can see the Republican campaign commercial now:
The stern music, the black and white slow-motion video of She Who Must Not Be Named looking like a beat-up dog, the newspaper articles flying up, the shrieking quotes of the banshee herself contrasting her own positions about the issue at hand: she voted for the war, but [...]

Rewriting language is a cherished tradition in liberal circles. They use the tactic before elections to hide what they really believe from the American people. They use it to misrepresent their opponents’ policies to serve red meat to the freaks in their base. The tactic is so widely used that even the [...]

So, President Bush emerged from his underground bunker today and gave a press conference which included an Iraq policy statement and for a few minutes turned into 1st term strong, confident, openly proud to support George W. Bush. I miss that Bush. He quickly turned back into ol’ Dubya and dribbled on about the new amnesty bill, though.
But his statement that we’ll leave Iraq [...]

This clip from Red Eye is hilarious. A few episodes ago, Mrs. Gutfeld reacted to Jimmy Carter’s latest temper tantrum regarding President Bush and Tony Blair. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. This woman is television gold!

I withheld posting my thoughts on the latest version of McCain-Kennedy because I didn’t know what was in it. Part of reason for that was the fact the people pushing the bill weren’t publicizing it. What I have heard since then has led me to conclude that this bill is a sham that shouldn’t [...]

John Edwards is an ass. Or is he an ostrich? As a Democrat, he’s naturally prone to believe that the “War on Terror” is a bumper-sticker slogan and not a strategy. Only She Who Must Not Be Named had possibly sounded more ridiculous–of course after the shock of finding out about Bill’s trysts… in 1998! What’s amazing is that while [...]

I just want to go on record. If New Orleans wins tonight’s NBA Draft lottery, it is rigged. Go Celtics!
UPDATE: Celtics get the fifth pick. Damn. The first pick goes to . . . Portland.

Finally, there’s a report out there that claims the technology I use every day is NOT going to kill me in a hundred different ways! Yet another British study was done to test the problems of modern technology, this time questioning the methodology of the studies used to claim that we’re all gonna die from cell [...]

This seems like reality. The Dems on the Hill are in the process of giving in (finally!) on the war finding issue… if the President is willing to deal with a minimum wage hike… which he absolutely should not do if there is not small business breaks to ease in their worker’s artificial wage increase.
My philosophical [...]

Yesterday I had the pleasure of hearing a lecture from Major General Oleg Kalugin, KGB (Retired) at the International Spy Museum in Washington DC through the American Institute for History Education (AIHE) grant through my school district. Not only was the International Spy Museum a really cool experience, but Oleg’s lecture was absolutely ground-shaking!
His credentials [...]

For years, liberals went on and on about how George W. Bush is a terrible President because he alienates our allies. In fact, liberal concern over making other countries like us was so dear to them that it became one of the centerpieces of their 2004 campaign. How things have changed. Today [...]

The story was all over the internet yesterday but no one offered a decent explanation of what Nancy Pelosi was really up to. To their credit, most blogs covering Pelosi’s attempted power grab made it clear that the House Democrats wanted to repeal a rule which has been in place since 1822 to stifle [...]

The Dems have snubbed Fox News in their current schedule of debates! Six debates taking place in the traditional old media, liberal spots: CNN, NBC/MSDNC, ABC, and CBS. It’s funny because there’s no way they’d get more exposure on CNN or MSDNC than they would on Fox News. So, is their point to have exposure or preach [...]

The following is this undecided conservative’s thoughts on tonight’s Republican debate in South Carolina.
The winners of tonight’s debate in terms of the big picture were the two conservatives who weren’t even there: Fred Thompson and Newt Gingrich. Of those on stage, Mike Huckabee was the clear winner although Duncan Hunter also delivered a strong [...]

My thoughts on the Republican debate as it happens. Note that all quotes below are approximate paraphrases, as I typed them as I heard them:
9:09: Brownback’s Iraq position is still troubling to me. He sounds more like a Democrat on Iraq than a Republican.
9:13: Best question of the night by Chris Wallace to Ron Paul: [...]

Practicing Catholics are beginning to grow restless about the recent She Who Must Not Named campaign video using images of the candidate with the Blessed Mother Teresa. CNSNews has an excellent piece regarding one Catholic group’s reaction to the video, especially in light of the two women’s divergent views on the issue of abortion. [...]

The latest round of Gallup polls are in and for the first time since the Dems took over, they are less popular than President Bush with a whopping 29% to Bush’s steady 33% approval. Scott Rasmussen, who’s been consistently polling the President’s job approval rating by taking an average of a three-day rolling poll for [...]

How the mighty have fallen. Amazingly desperate for publicity after each of his films have been exposed as cut and paste jobs with no basis in fact, Michael Moore challenged Fred Thompson to a debate over Cuba. Apparently, the comic book guy is a little upset over criticisms he received for his allegedly illegal trip [...]
