Meme Busting, Bill Whittle Style

I've been busy the last couple of weeks so I missed this earlier. Bill Whittle takes on and takes apart numerous media perpetuated memes in this Firewall  video.

State of the Union- A Conservative Response - Bill Whittle

This is Bill Whittle's response to the State of the Union Address. Do I really need to encourage you to watch?



If you like to read rather than watch, the transcript is here.

Bill Whittle on What Conservatives Believe

Bill has produced three (so far) videos on the conservative outlook on the World. I can think of no one who can articulate any idea better than Bill, so I'll shut up now and let you watch. Here are the videos:

Part 1: Small Government and Free Enterprise



Part 2: The Problem With Elitism



Part 3: Wealth Creation

Are Radical Islamists Setting Our National Security Agenda?

That is the question that Bill Whittle, Stephen Green and Scott Ott explore in the latest Trifecta segment at PJTV. I don't think you'll like the answer to the question. I know I don't. Go and watch the whole thing.  Apparently there is more to come.

Paying Legislators to Not Legislate - Bill Whittle May Just Be Onto Something

Bill Whittle posits that it just might be cheaper to pay off our legistlators and send them home than let them stay in Washington to further ruin our economy and bankrupt the country. It's PJTV, so I can't embed the video. It's PJTV, so I can't embed the video.

When Politicians Go Bad, Bill Whittle Gets Mad...

...and so he should. Just watch.

Bill Whittle Makes a Rare Appearance...

....at National Review Online, and he's optimistic about the GOP's chances of retaining the Whitehouse. Two years ago, just after the 2006 election, I wrote this post and expressed some optimism that the GOP would learn its lesson and that the Democrats might just behave responsibly, having regained control of Congress. I have been disappointed on both counts. But with the nomination of Sarah Palin this week, I have reason to share Bill's optimism. The nomination sends a very strong message that John McCain does "get it" and that he is already doing something about it. Bill Whittle:

"John McCain got me to believe tonight what I never really believed about him before: he is serious about changing Washington. He is serious about getting the GOP back to basics. John McCain wants to repair the brand. Claiming to want to do something is talk. What I think will cause many to believe him is something more than talk: McCain decided to man up. It’s our fault. We lost the confidence of the American people. We said we’d be true to our principles, and we weren't. The Democrats didn't make us do it. We did it to ourselves.

That has the ring of truth to it. It is a grownup accepting responsibility for a mistake not of his making and asking for the chance to rectify it. I don’t know how much of the country will believe him. But I did."

"We did it to ourselves." They say that the first step in dealing with a problem is to recognize that you have one. John McCain gets that. He has taken that first step for the GOP. It's late in the game, but maybe not too late. "I don't know how much of the country will believe him. But I did."

I do too.
