I understand that many on the right really really really hate Islam — the entire religion — simply because of the extremist element within that religion contain some terribly bad people. But you have to wonder about a winger who is do dedicated to his anti-Islamic beliefs that he says he will commit suicide as a sign of protest against … Read More

Seriously, this guy must have been big back in neanderthal times: Women shouldn’t be trained to kill, to engage in hand-to-hand combat or to risk death facing hate-crazed enemies. Now if that’s not bad enough, keep in mind that this is in the middle of an article talking about presidential nominees.  Which makes me wonder what Pat actually thinks the … Read More

Less than a week after Brave New Films launched a campaign against hate-radio host Michael Savage, four advertisers have pulled their ads from his radio show. The United Service Organizations (USO), however, is refusing to drop Savage and has demanded that Brave New Films “take the necessary steps to remove USO from [its] website entirely.”

I almost never agree with NRO columnist Jonah Goldberg, but I think he’s absolutely spot-on in his assessment of the conservative wing of American politics (a wing to which he belongs).  A snippet: Much of this chaos is attributable to the fact that this is a very flawed field, or at least one ill-suited for the times we’re in.

Hating Hillary has been such a central political impulse for so long now — 15 years … Read More

This one makes my head explode: Seeing as how I am both a white male and one of the "liberal fascists" that Goldberg writes about, I think the thing for me to do is to check myself in a concentration camp.

Via Sadly, No!, a look at the dustcover of Jonah Goldberg’s forthcoming book entitled "Liberal Fascists". This is the book that Jonah himself described back in March with these words: My book isn’t like Dinesh’s latest book. It isn’t like any Ann Coulter book. It isn’t what the Amazon description says or what the Economist claims it is. Or what … Read More

Someone took the sexual harassment allegations against Bill O’Reilly — including the taped phone call in which he described how he would seduce Ms. Makris — and set them to an operatic area. Here is the result, performed live:

So says Dan Bartlett, former Bush White House Director of Communications: That’s what I mean by influential. I mean, talk about a direct IV into the vein of your support. It’s a very efficient way to communicate. They regurgitate exactly and put up on their blogs what you said to them. It is something that we’ve cultivated and have really … Read More
