Perhaps this sort of thing only happens in college, but the conflation of lots of different ideas coming from all sorts of influences on and off campus have inspired this post. The heightened profile of the Youth for Western Civilization at Vandy, a self-proclaimed right-wing group that aims to counter its perception of raging leftism [...]
Okay, okay, I said no more on Rush and “I hope he fails,” but Jeff G.’s guest post at Hot Air sums up what I said yesterday in a clearer and more articulate way. Read the whole thing, but here’s a great nugget: The fact of the matter is, for all of Limbaugh’s provocation, his statement, [...]
Like everyone else in the right-wing blogosphere, I’m going to take the last stand on this whole “I hope he fails” business with Rush. Katherine and I have made our positions pretty clear here at Vandy Right. Patterico, Jeff Goldstein, Gabriel Malor and Ace have all had their say on this, and I encourage you to [...]
I don’t think is exactly what Rush Limbaugh had in mind, but the administration seems to be failing at administering themselves. First — no, that just won’t do. This isn’t the first in a line of screw-ups and botches, it’s the first in the past few days. Okay, so, first we have the deputy secretary [...]
Since everyone bandied about the mere 11 percent of Republicans that consider Rush leader of the party, shall we marvel at the ways and means of Rasmussen while the moment’s upon us? “Rasmussen Reports is testing public reaction to a series of quotes made by newsmakers recently. For this topic, respondents were asked if they [...]
So, Mike loves Rush Limbaugh. I do not. This has been a source of contention for years, and since Rush is the belle of the ball this week, we had a discussion about Rush that began on Twitter and carried right on over into GChat. In lieu of a podcast, we edited the chat (trust [...]
There’s some great discussion going on in the right-wing blogosphere about Rush Limbaugh, Michael Steele, and the movement. In the wake of CPAC and Rush’s energizing speech, Steele’s basically been playing it down, trying to distance the GOP and the RNC from Rush. Rush responded today on his show, and it’s worth a listen. Ace [...]
I don’t want to conflate these two and their speeches at CPAC, but since they are arguably the highest-profile speakers from yesterday (and perhaps the whole conference), I figured I’d take them both on here. First, Ann Coulter. I couldn’t get into the room with her yesterday (too packed) so I had to watch the [...]
Here’s my op-ed from tomorrow’s Hustler on InsideVandy.com. I wrote this Tuesday evening, after the inauguration. I’ve got so many problems with Obama and his plans for America (echoing Rush Limbaugh — check out his Hannity interview), but I really glad the bad-mouthing of America and our troops will most likely be toned down without [...]
