During the Bush years, Bush was often compared to Hitler or Mussolini,. The focus of the attacks had to do with wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and angst over the supposed erosion of civil liberties due to warrantless wiretaps, among other things. There was a lot of hyperbole. Bush was a monkey, a Nazi, a Fascist, the devil’s spawn. The hyperbole became so hysterical some | Read More »
Perhaps the coolest part of my job is getting embargoed copies of best sellers and getting to read them well in advance of release. Around Christmas this year, I received a small package in the mail and out came Ameritopia with a great big sticker on the front. “Pre-Publication Copy. EMBARGOED until January 16, 2012.” Well, the problem was that it was Christmas time and | Read More »
Back in 1994, Rush Limbaugh wrote See I Told You So. From page 88 of the book: [T]he cure for: a) the budget deficit = more taxes; b) unemployment = more taxes; c) recession = more taxes; d) environmental problems = more taxes; e) illiteracy = more taxes; f) L.A. riots = more taxes. It doesn’t matter what the nature of the problem is. This | Read More »
If you have any questions about the President’s ability to make war without the Congress explicitly “declaring war”, please go read this from Mark Levin and stop dropping the word “neo-con” just because you disagree with the President. Consider this an open thread.
I have no clue who Jim Manzi is and after today I hope to go back to having no clue who he is. As Hogan noted this morning, the guy apparently went to National Review Online and attacked National Review’s most successful author, Mark Levin. Now Mark does not need me or anyone else to defend him from the cocktail conservative brigade of the Trig | Read More »
The Landmark Legal Foundation is prepared to fight the Slaughter Solution. God bless Mark Levin. Here’s the money quote: “Landmark has already prepared a lawsuit that will be filed in federal court the moment the House acts. Such a brazen violation of the core functions of Congress simply cannot be ignored. Article I, Section 7 of the Constitution is clear respecting the manner in which | Read More »
I jumped over to Amazon.com today to see their Top 100 list — they have several, but the one I’m always interested in is the customers’ list. It’s much more democratic and free market. So, who is number one? Dan Brown with his Lost Symbol. Number two, however, falls to Mark Levin with Liberty and Tyranny. Number three goes to Glenn Beck. Both Levin and | Read More »
Last Thursday, Congresswoman Michele Bachmann (R-MN) urged Americans to go to Washington today and protest Obamacare. Well, Mark Levin picked up the charge and others joined her. Today, thousands will pour into Washington to tell Nancy Pelosi and the Congress to send Obamacare to a death panel (that’s section 1233 of the original legislation). If you need details on where to go in D.C. or | Read More »
If you didn’t listen to the Mark Levin show yesterday, you missed one of the greatest openings of a radio show ever. The Levin version of the Obama song was fantastic. You can get an idea of what it was and a whole lot more by watching this:
The New York Times hasn’t really paid it any attention. Same with the Washington Post. In fact, no major media outlets have paid attention to Mark Levin’s Liberty and Tyranny: A Conservative Manifesto. Like Michelle Malkin’s Culture of Corruption, the mainstream media just can’t seem to take the time to review or write, other than disparagingly, about conservative books that keep reaching the top of | Read More »
So here’s the thing: I got an early review copy of Mark Levin’s “Liberty and Tyranny.” I read it. I loved it. I set out to write a sterling review. Then that tool Hogan stole my thunder. I can do no better and can only refer you to his review. Getting back into power is not reason enough to stand on our basic conservative principles | Read More »
When we kicked off RedState 2.0 back in August of 2006, I crossed my fingers, prayed hard, and emailed to see if Rush Limbaugh might do a launch day podcast with us. He very graciously said yes. Now we have a tradition: a radio host does a launch day podcast with us. It is set in stone now. With RedState 3.0 officially launching today, I | Read More »
