My latest PJ Media column is called, 5 Behaviors That Make You Trash. Here’s an excerpt from the column.
People aren’t trashy because of who they are, they’re trashy because of how they behave. That means the cast of Jersey Shore, Perez Hilton, and the Kardashians didn’t pop out of their mama’s wombs wrong. To the contrary, they all had to learn how to be as trashy as a Louisiana landfill. Now trashy people have always been around, but the difference is that in our “any attention is good attention,” ...
Tonight, Right Wing News will be changing servers. Hopefully, most people won’t even notice the difference until they see that the page loads considerably faster on Monday. However, I have yet to ever have a server change that went smoothly. Come to think of it, every single move has ended up being a rambling train wreck that made me want to pull my hair out for at least 72 hours or so. Still, being an eternal optimist, I’m hoping this one will be different…ha, ha, ha. In any case, if ...
Last night, Michael Savage was ripping Mitt Romney up one side and down the other over this story.
Don’t go there. That, in essence, is the message Thursday from Mitt Romney, who said he “repudiates” an idea that was reportedly under consideration by an outside GOP group to run ads using the Rev. Jeremiah Wright Jr. to attack President Obama.
Since publication of The New York Times article Thursday describing the idea, the Chicago billionaire who was reportedly considering funding the $10 million plan has disavowed it.
But that news came ...
My latest Townhall column is called, 15 Facts That Even Obama’s Biggest Supporters Should Be Able To Admit Are True. Here’s an excerpt from the column.
“Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, but they are not entitled to their own facts.” — Daniel Patrick Moynihan
Conservatives and liberals may disagree on reasons, motivations, and excuses for Barack Obama’s performance, but the facts are still facts. There may be many reasons that a pro football coach goes 1-15, but everyone can agree that his record is still 1-15, right? Well, here are ...
Over at Reason, Shikha Dalmia wrote a strange piece called, “Jack Welch vs. Feminists: The Dumb Debate Over Female CEOs.” It’s a weird column not because of the comments about feminists, but because Dalmia may be the first Libertarian I’ve ever seen who seems to have contempt for people who work hard and succeed.
General Electric CEO Jack Welch ignited a firestorm recently when he told female executives that to become top dogs (like him), they have to toughen up. “Over-deliver,” he lectured. “Performance is it.” Forget about “life balance.” ...
George W. Bush never took leaks of sensitive classified material seriously and Obama is following in his footsteps, but the reality is that these leaks can lead to big body counts. When we alert the enemy to techniques we use to get information out of them, track them, or our sources — people can die as a result.
…In Assange’s case, he’s not an American and so he has no constitutional protection. Moreover, he’s going to get a lot of people killed. Can we do anything legally about someone from another ...
Earlier this week, I interviewed Jonah Goldberg about his outstanding new book, The Tyranny of Cliches: How Liberals Cheat in the War of Ideas.
If you’re looking for a book about politics that isn’t just a regurgitation of things you already know or so topical that you can throw it out in a couple of years, I would not hesitate to recommend “The Tyranny of Cliches” to you. It covers timeless subject matter, the research is outstanding, and Goldberg’s a clever writer who keeps the book moving.
What follows is ...
Let’s say you made 10 million dollars this year, you’re driving a Lamborghini, living in a mansion, and wearing a Rolex.
Are you in financial trouble? Are you broke?
The knee jerk response to that question is, “Broke? Are you crazy? You’re describing someone who’s filthy rich!”‘
This is the same reaction a lot of people have when they’re told that the United States is broke. How can that be when we have so much money?
Well, let’s color in the rest of the picture (Numbers extrapolated from here).
The guy who made ...
Moderates, centrists, independents — they’re a joke. For the most part, they’re either uninformed, indecisive, or in the grip of muddled thinking that prevents them from clearly defining the issues — which is fine as far as it goes. But, all too often, moderates have managed to sculpt an entirely undeserved sense of superiority out of their lack of ideological underpinnings and the country ends up captive to them at the end of every election. The left-wingers go for the socialist, the conservatives go for the capitalist and the election ...
