Pushing Libertarians up against the Wall

Since Comrade Karl doesn’t seem to want to play, I thought I might ask some of the more Libertarian-minded readers here on the RNL if they would help me understand a few things about your ideology.  Now, mind you, I am going to be civil, so I hope you will be in return. OK, let’s…

WARNING! This is Equivocation and it could KILL YOU!

Here’s the story: Turkish PM Erdogan: Islamophobia a ‘Crime Against Humanity’ Along With Zionism and Fascism With a string of pro-Islam, anti-Israel and anti-Western stances to his credit, Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdoğan is fast-making his mark as anything but the moderate leader of a country that once sought to emulate countries like Germany, rather than…

I’d like to teach the world….

…..to sing in perfect harmony. Quite frankly, I think I could….were I the queen of the world! But, alas! My arch nemesis, B., keeps dashing my dreams of monarchy! One can only imagine how a voice lesson would go down with him….(plays dream music…..)

Obama El Duce and His Media Sychophants

Shamelessly stolen in it’s full context from my buddy William … So the White House now, totally exposed by Bob Woodward, now turns their collective ‘barrels’ on one of the most notable reporters of our life time, and a long time friend of liberals at large. But let’s just back up a moment, and frame…

Media Sleeping in the Bed It Made for Itself

Have you seen this story? Only 6% Rate News Media As Very Trustworthy Gee, I wonder why? WHITE HOUSE THREATENS WOODWARD: ‘YOU WILL REGRET DOING THIS’… Watergate reporter blasts Obama ‘madness’… ‘It makes me very uncomfortable’… POLITICO: Exclusive Details… Left ramps up campaign to discredit… Will Washington Stand Up for Woodward?

Fun With Sequestration

I think that tomorrow’s sequestration is one of the best things that could ever happen in American politics. Why?

Keep in mind that nothing is being…

In a Sane World, this would Condemn Our University System

First, read this story: Communism an ‘Exaggerated Fear’? Social Security a ‘Right’? We Have Jack Lew’s College Thesis In his 1978 Harvard University honors thesis, current treasury secretary nominee and White House chief of staff Jacob “Jack” Lew wrote that Social Security payments should be a guaranteed right, regardless of whether the program’s “trust fund”…

Fascism and Tyranny in the White House

You disagree?  OK, then explain this story: Bob Woodward: ‘Very Senior’ White House Official Warned Me I’d ‘Regret’ Attacking Obama Over the Sequester Appearing on CNN Wednesday, the Washington Post’s Bob Woodward said a “very senior person” at the White House warned him that he would “regret doing this,” referring to his outspoken criticism of…

I Blame Bush…

…that Obama’s domestic snooping dwarfs that of his predecessor: More than a decade after the 9/11 terrorist attacks, a set of extraordinary and secretive surveillance programs conducted by the National Security Agency has been institutionalized, and they have grown. These special programs are conducted under the code name Ragtime, and are divided into several subcomponents,…

Time for another Language Logic Lesson

Somehow, it seems oddly fitting that this lesson should involve our school system.  Anyway, here is the story: Colorado parents of transgender 1st-grader file complaint over restroom ban Now, our first reaction shouldn’t be about the language problem inherent in this story, or even this child’s “rights,” but for the welfare of the child.  At…

Republicans: If You Think Your Party Is The Answer, Then “How Do We Preserve Liberty” Could NOT Have Been The Question

This is how the Republican Party quietly gives Obama more power while still feeding their members a line about “strategy:” Senate GOP ponders ceding power to President Obama They will tell you this is to saddle the consequences around Obama’s neck, but ask yourself: what was the last “consequence” that stuck to Obama?  You see,…
