The new guys running the fourth season of AMC’s The Walking Dead understand that the show is about zombies, not feelings. This is good. And the astronomical ratings for the Oct. 13 premiere showed something good about Americans as well. There are
Apparently the only thing you need to do to make a conservative movie is show a family that’s not a freak show and religious people who aren’t nuts. Oh, and if your villain is a female ghost you’re also anti-woman.
We conservatives are so used to network television being hostile territory that we flip through the channels with the trepidation of the characters on The Walking Dead strolling through a forest, except with fewer tiresome Andrea-related sub-plots. But recently, the
There’s plenty about Girls to annoy conservatives, yet this often creepy, usually skeevy, critically-acclaimed HBO series is also a test for conservatives. Will we finally heed Andrew Breitbart’s warnings about the importance of taking pop culture seriously or just keep
Apparently J.R.R. Tolkien used to deny that his masterpiece, “The Lord of the Rings,” was an allegory of the great struggles between good and evil of his time, but in fact “LOTR” is an allegory of the great struggles between
The Army uses the term “BLUF” – bottom line up front. The BLUF on Jake Tapper’s new book on Afghanistan, The Outpost, is that you need to read it. If you are a civilian, you need to do so
We are only two episodes into the new season, and it appears that AMC’s “The Walking Dead” may have been resurrected after last year’s mostly craptacular second season, which was preceded by a pretty craptacular first season. And the reason
More than 3100 people have commented on Tuesday’s Big Government post “Time for Ron Paul Fans to Support the Constitution.” Many agreed with my thesis that libertarians should support Mitt Romney to avoid a second Obama term, but many did
There is no more time for games, no room for hurt feelings. Ron Paul fans, you need to choose, because not voting for Romney is a vote for Obama. It’s that simple. And you could make the difference. Maybe Romney
Even Californians jaded by the antics of their state’s obnoxious political class were stunned by the outrageous sense of entitlement displayed by long term California senator Dianne Feinstein when a local television reporter dared ask her why she refuses to
Leftist Senator Sherrod Brown, running neck and neck for reelection in Ohio against Marine Josh Mandel, has discovered a new kind of veteran – the “strategic veteran” who has fought in the trenches of Congress and been under fire in
It was remarkable watching the mainstream media fulminate against an actor and miss entirely how he connected with the audience. This was a crowd not just of snotty baby boomers with fancy degrees and charter membership in the Smart Set,
The “You didn’t build that” fiasco, including the incoherent spinning Obama’s minions around the mainstream media have been doing ever since, provides us not only a wonderful opportunity to peek inside the liberal hive mind but a chance to dissect
Sometimes Hollywood produces a movie so utterly insane that you have to wonder whether it’s really not some sort of NEA-funded, meta commentary/performance art piece designed to fool the squares out in flyover country. I don’t know if “The Obama
Get up. Yeah, we got knocked on our tails last week. And? This isn’t the first time and won’t be the last. Now we have a choice to make. We can either choose to roll up into the fetal position
The new Disney-Pixar collaboration “Brave,” an animated Scottish fairy tale, is a smash hit, earning around $70 million in its first weekend and leaving its competition in the bog. As expected from the Pixar folks, it’s technically amazing and visually
In space, no one can hear you scream, “I freaking paid $17 a ticket for this?!?” It’s no secret that the “Alien” sorta-prequel “Prometheus” is a gorgeous fiasco, a visually stunning yet substantively ridiculous outer space epic that makes any
Last week, I published my first book. Within two days, I Am a Conservative: Uncensored, Undiluted and Absolutely Un-PC hit Number 1 on Amazon’s “Political Humor” Kindle bestseller list and Number 7 on the overall “Political” ebook list. Who the hell am
Just in time for Memorial Day, some MSNBC drone named Chris Hayes has lit up the internet with his confession that dead American troops don’t quite measure up to his exacting standards for what qualifies as a “hero.” Memo to
The easiest way to say it is just to say it: There are grown men out there who devote themselves to the rainbow-unicorn-sparkly-pastel fantasy world of the children’s TV show “My Little Pony.” And, more appallingly, it’s not done ironically
Reading Jason Mattera’s book, “Hollywood Hypocrites,” made me feel like I was back in grad school, except I was sober this time. The last week has been a graduate seminar in Hollywood Hypocrisy, and reading Mattera’s book while paying attention to the
The critics all agree – Professor Derrick Bell’s criminally overlooked film “Space Raiders” is a smash hit! “I laughed, I cried, I damned America!” ~ Rev. Jeremiah Wright “A blockbuster thrill-ride that finally shows America as the monster it
I used to tell people that Andrew Breitbart was a visionary, and he was, but he was also a leader. His perspective was that of an L.A. kid raised in the heart of popular culture who stopped being able to
There’s nothing better than being able to do the right thing and the politically savvy thing while simultaneously paying back a long-time abuser in spades. And that’s just what the Republicans in Congress did to Hollywood when it abandoned the
I loved going to the movies. I always have, but I’m not so sure I do anymore. We all know Hollywood is spinning around the bowl, waiting for the final flush. Attendance at theaters is not just flat-lining, it’s in
The GOP Establishment we keep hearing about is real, and it is also doomed. That will not change whether the Establishment’s candidate Mitt Romney wins in November or not. After the election, the battle really starts; what is happening now
The Oscar nominations are out, almost by surprise. There was a time when Oscar nominations were news, when people cared. Did you care? Maybe, but it’s hard to see why. There was a time when the Academy Awards were an
As Newt Gingrich’s challenge to the anointment of Mitt Romney heats up, the newest line of attack against the erratic former Speaker by the Romneyites is not so much that Newt is unelectable – that’s assumed, and not unreasonably. It’s
For lefty movie reviewers already bitter that Margaret Thatcher even existed – and especially bitter because her three terms as Britain’s prime minister utterly repudiated their most sacred beliefs – the new Thatcher biography The Iron Lady offers them a
Four high-profile shows have just had their season finales – well, three did while the other (AMC’s “The Walking Dead“) instead invented the concept of a “mid-season finale,” a phenomenon that is even less necessary than the Jon Huntsman campaign.
Sure, it’s self-evident that the Bilderbergers wield the true power behind the scenes, controlling the banking system, the media and that damn traffic light that turned red just as your Dodge Dart got to the intersection. And it’s obvious that
The Occupy losers are delighted; they finally got the footage they think will shift the focus off the almost unbelievable legacy of Occupier violence, sexual assaults and general degeneracy that has been so carefully documented by Big Government. They hope
The weirdos, losers and mutations who make up the Occupy movement showed the world their glass jaw when their Denver branch descended upon the FreedomWorks BlogCon 2011 new media convention on Friday. There’s a lot for conservatives to learn from
You’re not a conservative if Kim Kardashian making millions for being a half-witted, no-talent reality TV star bothers you. In fact, if you feel “there oughta be a law” somehow regulating, limiting or otherwise controlling in any manner at all
There’s a major split on the conservative scene that threatens to tear us apart, and we need to confront the issue head-on. No, it isn’t the Romney vs. a Conservative fight – let’s face it, we’re all going to vote
To quote someone we all know and love, let me be perfectly clear: The mainstream media is the bought and paid for lapdog of the liberal Democrat elite. It will not only never give conservatives a fair hearing but will
It’s always a bad sign when my Hot Wife switches to Spanish, which she did after watching about 20 minutes of the premiere of Terra Nova. She dubbed it Terra Mierda. I won’t translate it for you gringos; just understand
In the wake of President Obama asking America’s richest and most successful to do their patriotic duty and contribute their fair share to our Nation, more and more are refusing to be content with merely ostentatiously asking to have their
Alec, you need to stop treating American soldiers like they were members of your own family. They deserve better than that. Not content with achieving Father of the Year Emeritus status for his unique, outside-the-box parenting skills, Alec Baldwin spent
