Roseanne, Trump and the Myth of Conservative Racism

Townhall

David Limbaugh: I don’t believe that Democrats are racists, but I do believe they cynically exploit racial smears against Republicans as part of their strategy to retain a disproportionate percentage of African-American and other minority voters, without which they would be reduced to a permanent minority party.

Roseanne Is Out? So Explain Bill Maher and Others

Townhall

Bill Maher gets top pundits to appear on his s how. No guest seems bothered by Maher’s sexist, vicious put-downs of Republican women.Maher has called Sarah Palin a “c—” and a “dumb t—.” Maher defended himself by insisting that in his stand-up act, political correctness is off-limits.

Dear Democrats, Trump Actually Loves America

Townhall

Unlike the vast majority of past presidents—and possibly all of them—Trump is the guy who on day one as President began living a life below the norms of what he had already achieved. His bedroom is smaller. His plane is worse. His schedule is more demanding. His time now belongs to the people—instead of himself. As a titan of industry he never needed to worry his head about the things he now must focus on around the clock. 

Obama Administration’s Spying on Trump a Departure from Norms

Townhall

Has an outgoing administration ever worked to delegitimize and dislodge its successor like this? We hear many complaints, some justified, about Donald Trump’s departure from standard political norms. But the greater and more dangerous departure from norms may be that of the Obama officials seeking to overturn the results of the 2016 election.

Why Liberal Groups Like PETA Lie

Townhall

Derek Hunter:  Like most liberal groups, their declared mission and the execution of that mission are often at odds with one another. They are a left-wing group, and like other left-wing groups they run a left-wing crusade against anything that will not conform with their agenda. They’re also raging hypocrites.

How the Russia Investigation Helps Trump

Townhall

Ben Shapiro: The reality is most Americans think the Russia investigation is going nowhere. As of early May, just 44 percent of Americans though the FBI special counsel investigation of President Trump and his associates is justified; fifty-three percent thought that the investigation is politically motivated. Three-quarters of Americans think Trump should cooperate with the probe, but Americans are skeptical that there is a there there.

Liberal Lies and Slander Are a Slippery Slope to Trouble

Townhall

Kurt Schlichter:  Leftism has a historical track record unblemished by success, and that includes its effeminate little brother American liberalism, whose greatest hits include rampant crime, welfare cheats, and national decline. This legacy of failure is why the goateed durwoods lurking around campus coffee shops in berets and ironic Army surplus jackets always insist to anyone within earshot that “True socialism has never been tried.”

George W. Bush Looks Better Every Day

Townhall

S. E. Cupp: Bush was “America Best,” not “America First.” He was hugely patriotic and optimistic about America’s role in the world, but not in service of denigrating other cultures or parts of the world. His tremendous commitment to the international AIDS crisis was, for him, an opportunity to help developing nations while elevating America’s leadership.

Cornell Student Presents Senior Thesis in Her Underwear

Townhall

That delivering a senior thesis in one’s underwear before fellow students, most of whom also stripped down to their underwear, is acceptable – even honored – at Cornell University tells you just about all you need to know to understand the degraded state of Cornell and most other American universities.

Trump Is a President Like No Other

Townhall

Conrad Black: Donald Trump accomplished more before he was president than had any prior president of the United States except Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Grant, and Eisenhower. His exterior is uneven, but his history is one of astounding accomplishment.

“Enhanced Interrogations” Are Not Torture

Townhall

There is no defense for torture, as properly defined. It is what the North Vietnamese did to our soldiers in Hanoi. It is what drug cartels do to captured enemies. It is what North Korea did to Otto Warmbier. It is not what American intelligence officers have done to save lives.

The War on Wisdom

Townhall

The left in America is founded on the rejection of wisdom. It is possible to be on the left and be kind, honest in business, faithful to one’s spouse, etc. But it is not possible to be wise if one subscribes to leftist (as opposed to liberal) ideas.

Not Being a Wimp to N. Korea Works

Townhall

Kurt Schlichter: Maybe the roly-poly dictator has come around to our way of thinking. Maybe it’s the lingering awesomeness of Barack Obama that led him to acts of unprecedented good behavior. Maybe it’s just that he’s decided to be a nice guy. Or maybe it’s because, under Trump, the US stopped acting like a simpering wuss.

The Entertainment Industry Can’t Tolerate Conservatives Like Kanye

Townhall

Ben Shapiro:  It may just be that West, like a lot of Americans tired of being told what to think by their industry and racialists on all sides, is getting tired of being told what to do. It’s possible that West, like most Americans, sees America as a place with problems but a place where individuals can think and achieve freely. And he’s clearly willing to take part in a political debate so many of his friends aren’t.

The Hate-Filled Correspondents’ Dinner

Townhall

Rachel Alexander: Unfortunately, these people with their demented sense of what’s “funny” are the ones writing daily news about the Trump administration. If you needed any more evidence of their journalistic bias, the vile hatred toward Trump and his staff was on featured display at the dinner.
