What? No ‘Lonesome Roads’ references when they’d actually be appropriate?

When they aren’t comparing him to Howard Beale of Network, Media Matters (a.k.a. the George Soros Steno Pool) and other left-leaning pundits love calling Glenn Beck a real life Lonesome Roads.
Roads is the lead character of the recently revived film A Face in the Crowd (1957). Like Network, A Face in the Crowd is about [...]

On the “Private” Lives of Politicians

No this post isn’t just about John Edwards cheating on his cancer-stricken wife. But here’s a question: Why aren’t we allowed to talk about the “private lives” of politicians? I ask because questioners are raising questions about Australia’s first female PM, Julia Gillard and her former lovers.  Meanwhile, anti-questioners in the elite media are questioning [...]

Ayaan Hirsi Ali 2, CBC 0

People still talk about the time freedom fighter Ayaan Hirsi Ali crushed insufferable leftist TV host Avi Lewis on a Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (CBC) broadcast. In case you’ve forgotten (or just want to relive the thrill), here’s a taste:
Then Lewis asked Hirsi Ali for her “critique against Islam.” Ali, the epitome of poised, calmly responded [...]

Obama and A Moronic Room with a View

I hate “The View.” I can’t think of anything that I’d like to watch less than a bunch of inane broads, prattling on about their va-jay-jays endlessly while pretending that they are oh so cool and hip. In fact, the entire premise of the show annoys me. “Oh look at us! 4 [...]

Simple position on WikiLeaks: Release Classified Documents, Go to Jail

The developing conventional wisdom throughout the conservative blogosphere seems to be that the 92,000 documents on Afghanistan dumped by the leftist Wikileaks site are meaningless. These aren’t the Pentagon Papers. We know what’s in them.
This argument — true or false — is beside the point. Whether these documents contain important material or not it’s too [...]

“Eradicating Islam” Reconsidered

Islam is not a religion of peace. Far more of its adherents are sympathetic to its radical elements than the West is willing to admit, and we desperately need to begin talking honestly about the problem. But outright calls to “eradicate Islam in the West” raise serious concerns about religious liberty, imprecisely identify our enemy, [...]

The Music World Goes Anti-Israel – Part III | FrontPage Magazine

[Editor's note: This is the final installment of a three-part series. Click the following for Part I and Part II.] The campaign to pressure artists to boycott is part of a highly organised mass movement.

Who’s Afraid of Jesse Jackson?

One of the fascinating things about Jesse Jackson is that there’s a complete mismatch between the level of holy terror he generates in politicians & corporations and the actual amount of real world influence he has.
The myth of Jesse Jackson says he’s a black American leader and if he’s not happy, tens of millions [...]

Historian Newt Gingrich Gives the Washington Post a Much-Needed History Lesson

The Left’s misreading of the nation’s founding documents accounts for considerable political mischief. Historian Newt Gingrich has identified one such misreading, of the Declaration of Independence, while showing how this misreading leads to the forced secularization of America. Newt is right, but the Left’s misreading of the Declaration also leads to the concentration of economic power in Washington. Thus, if conservatives want to stop the leftist onslaught, they best focus on the nation’s educational system: to ensure that future generations are taught the true basis of our government.
