The new guys running the fourth season of AMC’s The Walking Dead understand that the show is about zombies, not feelings. This is good. And the astronomical ratings for the Oct. 13 premiere showed something good about Americans as well. There are

Apparently the only thing you need to do to make a conservative movie is show a family that’s not a freak show and religious people who aren’t nuts. Oh, and if your villain is a female ghost you’re also anti-woman.

We conservatives are so used to network television being hostile territory that we flip through the channels with the trepidation of the characters on The Walking Dead strolling through a forest, except with fewer tiresome Andrea-related sub-plots. But recently, the

There’s plenty about Girls to annoy conservatives, yet this often creepy, usually skeevy, critically-acclaimed HBO series is also a test for conservatives. Will we finally heed Andrew Breitbart’s warnings about the importance of taking pop culture seriously or just keep

Apparently J.R.R. Tolkien used to deny that his masterpiece, “The Lord of the Rings,” was an allegory of the great struggles between good and evil of his time, but in fact “LOTR” is an allegory of the great struggles between

We are only two episodes into the new season, and it appears that AMC’s “The Walking Dead” may have been resurrected after last year’s mostly craptacular second season, which was preceded by a pretty craptacular first season. And the reason

More than 3100 people have commented on Tuesday’s Big Government post “Time for Ron Paul Fans to Support the Constitution.” Many agreed with my thesis that libertarians should support Mitt Romney to avoid a second Obama term, but many did

There is no more time for games, no room for hurt feelings. Ron Paul fans, you need to choose, because not voting for Romney is a vote for Obama. It’s that simple. And you could make the difference. Maybe Romney

Even Californians jaded by the antics of their state’s obnoxious political class were stunned by the outrageous sense of entitlement displayed by long term California senator Dianne Feinstein when a local television reporter dared ask her why she refuses to

Leftist Senator Sherrod Brown, running neck and neck for reelection in Ohio against Marine Josh Mandel, has discovered a new kind of veteran – the “strategic veteran” who has fought in the trenches of Congress and been under fire in

It was remarkable watching the mainstream media fulminate against an actor and miss entirely how he connected with the audience. This was a crowd not just of snotty baby boomers with fancy degrees and charter membership in the Smart Set,

The “You didn’t build that” fiasco, including the incoherent spinning Obama’s minions around the mainstream media have been doing ever since, provides us not only a wonderful opportunity to peek inside the liberal hive mind but a chance to dissect

Sometimes Hollywood produces a movie so utterly insane that you have to wonder whether it’s really not some sort of NEA-funded, meta commentary/performance art piece designed to fool the squares out in flyover country. I don’t know if “The Obama

Get up. Yeah, we got knocked on our tails last week. And? This isn’t the first time and won’t be the last. Now we have a choice to make. We can either choose to roll up into the fetal position

The new Disney-Pixar collaboration “Brave,” an animated Scottish fairy tale, is a smash hit, earning around $70 million in its first weekend and leaving its competition in the bog. As expected from the Pixar folks, it’s technically amazing and visually

In space, no one can hear you scream, “I freaking paid $17 a ticket for this?!?” It’s no secret that the “Alien” sorta-prequel “Prometheus” is a gorgeous fiasco, a visually stunning yet substantively ridiculous outer space epic that makes any

The easiest way to say it is just to say it: There are grown men out there who devote themselves to the rainbow-unicorn-sparkly-pastel fantasy world of the children’s TV show “My Little Pony.” And, more appallingly, it’s not done ironically
