Just a couple of days ago Ann Coulter chimed in about John Edwards’ Beverly Hills romp, referring to the philanderer-in-question as “faggy.” GLAAD, aka The Gay Gestapo, predictably blew a “we have no sense humor” gasket (not that anything else, oh, like the murder of gays by Islamist regimes, should be occupying their time). Ann, irreverently funny, is also slightly wrong. Edwards isn’t “faggy;” he’s a smarmy, disgusting, unfaithful metrosexual. I have a tiny feeling, though, they’re going to have trouble raising any “Coulter Cash” on that one.

Recent events centering around a morally superior politician’s adulterous affair and love child offer us an age-old reminder: those who claim to be better than everyone else, who point their arrogant, prideful finger away from themselves, want you to look away from what they’d rather not have you see–themselves. A timely reminder on both the establishment media and political fronts.

Last week a major American newspaper issued a censorship order for its bloggers related to the story of the John Edwards cheatfest at the Beverly Hills Hilton, and Barack Obama ended his liberally triumphant Obamessiah World Tour by shunning our wounded troops and apologizing for America’s actions.

With Edwards, The Los Angeles Times could learn a few things from The Hartford Courant.

Everyone in Washington, Republican and Democrat alike, should be extremely concerned with the fact that the American people have never been as repulsed by our own government as we are now.

While we have plenty to celebrate regarding the Supreme Court decision in its DC vs. Heller ruling, it provides a great warning as well—sitting on the court is at least one man who has no grasp of the intentions of the Framers.

President Bush read a statement today outlining the need and importance of offshore and ANWR drilling, and establishing new refineries.

This is great news and he was right on every single point, yet there are still some extraordinary shenanigans surrounding how we handle our existing supplies, both imported and domestic.

Why are Independent Conservatives still extremely wary of John McCain? Every day he has a chance to retreat from proving to Democrats he’s worthy of their vote and instead remember what gave Ronald Reagan the biggest electoral victory in the history of the United States–Authentic Conservatism.

Instead, McCain’s current pandering to liberals (for example, the importance of giving the climate a hug) gives us something that would make the “Teds” (Senators Stevens and Kennedy) beam with pride–an International Bridge to Nowhere, replete with a fully taxed carbon footprint. But you know what the really pathetic thing is? Barack Obama is even worse.

Seattle Mayor Greg Nickels has signed an executive order to ban guns on all property owned by the city. 

After the roar of approval from psychotic murderers died down, Nickels explained the new ban was necessary after a shooting at the Folklife Festival wounded two people at the Seattle Center.

UPDATE: Since this post went up the the McCain campaign has actually admitted
that they, with the presumption Hillary will disappear from the presidential campaign, will in fact be turning left in the effort to woo Hillary’s voters.

Check out this post from The Politico.

On this last day of Democratic primaries, amidst conflicting stories about what her announcement plans are for this evening, Hillary has made it known she is willing to be Barack Obama’s vice presidential running mate. FOX News reports this revelation came as a statement from Hillary to “congressional colleagues.”

It is clearly an effort, appropriately, to continue to control the agenda. It is a savvy and smart thing to do and the sort of decision making that makes one right for the White House. — She knows what she wants, and has the courage to pursue it.

When the news about Scott McClellan’s Bush-bashing book hit the proverbial fan I noted on my radio program that the timing and content were strange enough we would inevitably learn of ‘other factors’ being involved in the creation of this book. After all, it is indeed a bizarre situation to destroy so many personal relationships with nothing more than speculation on discussions behind closed-doors; admissions of being kept out of the White House loop (but then commentary and accusation that could only come from someone in the loop) and irrelevant declarations of personal opinions about the war in Iraq and the aftermath of Katrina.

Keep in mind, I’m no fan of President Bush, but someone should remind Scott that the analysis of a mediocre White House press secretary about world events isn’t quite as relevant as the opinions of the Commander-in-Chief, the Joint Chiefs of Staff, the international intelligence community and our own Congress — whether liberals like it or not.

Now, less than 24 hours after the announcement of the 300+ pages of pontifications worthy of tabloid hysteria, one of the ‘other factors’ has already been exposed. The Web site Little Green Footballs one of the world’s most widely read blogs, has uncovered the stealth publisher of McClellan’s Linda Blair moment in print— none other than leftist ideologue George Soros.

Why McClellan would get into bed with Soros is now the question.

I haven’t liked the Clintons for some time now but have grown to admire Hillary Clinton’s resilience and commitment to the Democratic race in the face of ridiculous bullying to get her to quit. After all, if the nomination is in Obama’s pocket, why are his supporters frantic in their efforts to get her to quit?

That admiration, I must admit, took a hit last week when Hillary delivered her bizarre RFK assassination remark as a supposed example of Democratic primary timelines. I don’t necessarily believe her explanation, but the fire she has come under has been excessive and, frankly, when it comes to liberal complaints, ridiculous. For the past 7 years liberals have luxuriated in various death wishes for both President Bush and Vice President Cheney. And now they’re shocked, just shocked, at even just the reference to RFK’s murder?

My disappointment with what is at least Hillary’s sloppy, and tasteless rhetoric was mitigated when I heard Obama’s speech on Sunday to Wesleyan graduates. He warned the 700+ undergraduates and 120 doctoral students of the “poverty of ambition” and essentially encouraged them to not pursue the American dream–

“You can take your diploma, walk off this stage and chase only after the big house and the nice suits and all the other things that our money culture says you should.” He continued, “But I hope you don’t.”

This from a 46-year-old man who is running for president, who made over $4 million last year, owns a nice home and wears plenty of great suits. The hypocrisy itself is stunning, but it is also a recipe for economic disaster. All of us want to contribute to our communities through service–and the best service is to build companies, create inventions, and expand the potential of every American life. Working to help the poor is laudable; building a company to employ those who need work is even better.

Rodham Clinton’s remark about RFK was indeed unfortunate and gets her the Head Shake, but Obama’s embrace of the classically leftist notions that capitalism is bad and ambition worth rejecting will have real, disastrous consequences for this nation.
