    John Lott on September 23rd, 2008
    Naomi Wolf advised Al Gore on how to be an Alpha male in 2000. Here are her deep insights on Sarah Palin:I believe the Rove-Cheney cabal is using Sarah Palin as a stalking horse, an Evita figure, to put a popular, populist face on the coming police state and be the talk show hostess for the end of elections as we know them. If McCain-Palin get in,...

    The Liberty Zone on September 23rd, 2008
    The top news this morning is still the multi-billion dollar bailout fiasco Congressleeches want to impose on us.  I think everything that needed to be said about it has been said.  I hate it.  A large number of taxpayers hates it.  Anyone with half a brain realizes that this IS socialism, no matter how Bernanke and Paulson try t...

    Learn About Guns on September 23rd, 2008
    Smugglers have become increasingly sophisticated in recent years, gaining access to expensive equipment and using some rather impressive tactics.  This is yet another reason that gun bans simply won’t work: For the second time in less than a week, the U.S. Coast Guard said Friday that it had fished out of the sea a semi-submersible vessel [....

    This may be an oversimplification BUT : If the U.S. PASSES and EXPANDS THE FINANCIAL BAILOUT provisions ($1T, T = Trillion); subsidizes EVERYTHING ELSE ($19T); and rebates STIMULUS PAYMENTS to EVERYONE ON THE PLANET ($300 - $3,000T); then lowers taxes - (to a conservatively appropriate rate); Then, what the hell?  We may as well also default on a...

    John Lott on September 23rd, 2008
    Here is the speech that Sarah Palin wanted to give protesting Ahmadinejad's arrival in NYC.

  • Joe Biden shoots his goose
    Buckeye Firearms Assoc. on September 23rd, 2008
    By Chad D. Baus It is often said that those who do not learn from history are doomed to repeat it. The phrase definitely applies to Democrats Barack Obama and Joe Biden, and the 2004 Democrat presidential nominee John Kerry. For most of the 2004 campaign, the Kerry campaign was winning on the gun issue by making it a non-issue. Kerry was doing we...

    Why is it when there's a shooting of innocents, the calls for more gun control reach a feverish pitch but when there's a story about a woman defending her life and those of her family with a firearm, there's not a similar amount of noise given to reducing the restrictions on firearms? Even though there are more of the latter than the former?...

    FOX 8 News (WJW Cleveland) is reporting that a 65-year-old homeowner shot and killed a alleged burglar in front of his home.

    Front Site Press on September 23rd, 2008
    FactCheck supposedly exists to look beyond a politician’s claims. Ironically, in its analysis of NRA materials on Barack Obama, these so-called “FactCheckers” use the election year campaign rhetoric of a presidential candidate and a verbal claim by one of the most zealous gun control supporters in Congress to refute facts compiled by NRA’s...

    I agree with Slacktivist on this, and I expect that many readers, from across the political spectrum will also agree: I’ll gladly concede that Paulson knows more about the world’s rapidly collapsing finance system than I do. That doesn’t matter. Paulson’s request violates an inviolable principle, namely, to repeat, that if a...
