File this under “Man Bites Dog.” From the Capital Gazette: [Laura] Neuman said that despite the loss, the months of campaigning revived her marriage with Paul Volkman. Volkman had filed for divorce in March, but she’s eager to say they
Perhaps one of the most blatant media lies this month (though we still have a week to go) is the recycled news of the baseless investigations of Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker. This primer on the media’s smearing of Walker is
I recently heard about a website called Rent-A-Gent. At first it sounded like an escort service. And it is. On the surface, there were some aspects that appealed to a single girl like me. I could hire a
Democrats claiming they want to “fix” Obamacare are not to be believed. As Sean Noble of American Encore noted, their goal is single-payer. They will paint Obamacare as a failure of a “free market” system and suggest single-payer is the
Elon Musk is the kind of crony capitalist that gives businessmen a bad name. Watchdog.org has the story: The solar energy industry, led by billionaire Elon Musk’s SolarCity, has been dictating the building codes of a Silicon Valley city hell-bent
Time and time again the Left falsely claims we’re the ones who are “anti-science.” So, whenever I see a story about junk science, particularly, one pushed by the media I have to address it for its sheer stupidity. Unfortunately, the
This week on Tom Brokaw’s nationally syndicated radio commentary, “An American Story,” he suggested that there be a website that lists all campaign/political donors. It’s the latest in the phony calls for transparency from those on the Left and in
I’ll get a few things out of the way. I was the Director of CPAC from 2006-2011. I fought for GOProud’s inclusion. When they let me go in 2011, the board also voted to keep GOProud out. Unfortunately, that didn’t
I’m an avid non-Section A reader of the New York Times. It really is a good little paper for everything not related to politics or policy. Recently, there was a great article titled “Faking Cultural Literacy.” From the article: What
Truth be told, I’ve never been a big believer in boycotts. But times could be changing. The Left has made it their mission to integrate politics into every part of our lives. The shows we watch, the restaurants where we
Check out this video from American Encore and American Commitment. Good stuff. It’s going to be a tough election for Democrats… as long as Republicans stay on message and hammer home on the Obamacare lie.
In the Arizona Republican primary, several candidates are lining up to replace Gov. Jan Brewer. One of them seems to be making national news for all the wrong reasons. First time candidate Christine Jones has a problem with telling the
Get ready for the “I told you so” post. It’s important to note that Ben Sasse’s campaign received endorsements from tea party-supported figures like Sen. Mike Lee, Sen. Ted Cruz and Sarah Palin, established conservative media like National Review, DC-based
In response to Obama’s War on Workers: An update to my post last week on Obama’s War on Workers. Today the U.S. Chamber’s President and CEO posted a commentary on the proposed 800+ regulations on for-profit educational institutions. He writes:
There’s a saying about politics and law making that if you’re not at the table you’re on the menu. In other words, if you’re a businessman and a big government liberal threatens your industry, cozy up to him to try
The Obama Administration wants to eliminate jobs and make more people dependent on the government. There simply isn’t any other way to put it. They have turned their sites on for-profit, non-traditional colleges, like trade schools and continuing-ed programs for
A story by the Omaha World-Herald today could spell deeper trouble for the mysterious naval officer who produced a fake memo at the request of U.S. Senate candidate and former Navy pilot Shane Osborn. The World-Herald reported that television station KETV
Forgive me, Convo readers, for another post linking to my book, Finding Mr. Righteous. This time I have a point, I promise. The point is that Mike Rowe is right about nearly everything. He’s right about skilled trades. He’s right
Dana Perino has a great opinion piece on FoxNews.com today about San Diego congressional candidate Carl DeMaio. For instance, DeMaio has been the target of homophobic attacks. But where are those attacks coming from? It’s not always from the
Like S.E. Cupp, I am also an NRA member and I couldn’t be more proud of the way she’s stood up for gun owners and the 2nd Amendment. On ABC’s This Week, she said “Mayors Against Illegal Guns has crumbled
A few weeks ago I was at an event at my hair salon and I had the opportunity to talk to a local jewelry designer. Like many Americans, she doesn’t pay attention to politics every day. She had recently seen
This week I was on Red Eye with Greg Gutfeld for the first time. It’s been a dream of mine ever since I watched it for the first time. Red Eye is the reason I got DVR. I have the
Next on my reading list is Charles Murray’s The Curmudgeon’s Guide to Getting Ahead. On the tips for transitioning from college to the working world, he writes: I’m thinking especially of tip No. 1, “Don’t suck up.” How can I
In their continued silliness, the stealth Citizens for Health (i.e. Citizens for Sugar) is advising that “High Fructose Corn Syrup Named the #1 Ingredient to Avoid for National ‘Read Your Labels Day.’” From their press release: Consumer advocate group Citizens
Following plaintiff Shaun McCutcheon’s victory in the campaign finance reform case, several conservatives have hailed him as a hero. Certainly, he was on the right side of the issue of campaign donation limits, but like many he still doesn’t get
