As partisans on the left and right try to co-opt and compare the Tea Party and Occupy Wall Street movements, both sides ignore that they aren’t really that different at all. Both, in fact, hew to the same conventions as all mass movements. And as the 2012 presidential candidates — including President Obama — attempt to form their positions on each one, they’d all be wise to put them in perspective. In Eric Hoffer’s seminal 1951 work, “The True Believer: Thoughts on the Nature of Mass Movements,” the similarity is drawn with startling clarity. The work of a self-educated gold...

Taxing the rich, as Occupy Wall Street would like to do, will not help the American economy. Voice of the People for Nov. 9, 2010 Does Obama have enough votes to pass Health Care reform? Democrats disagree Cupp: When it comes to ideas, GOP is far more diverse than left Stocks plummet as bailout rejected Republicans take House, sending message to Obama History shows Bam's State of the Union address won't make much of a difference The argument that Republicans and Democrats, conservatives and liberals, have been having for decades hasn’t changed much. And now, though muddled and overly-caffeinated, it’s...

CNN has posted an article by S.E. Cupp and I must say I disagree with Ms. Cupp completely. She argues that the Christie and Palin question is a detriment to the GOP. Add Ms. Cupp to the long list of people trying to tell us when it’s too late for this one or that one. Lately, it’s become an absurdity to watch. I can’t imagine that it’s possible that she believes her own impatience ought to drive the party’s choices, but there she is demanding: “Time’s up, Christie and Palin. In or out?” Excuse me if I fail to take...

Ron Paul is smart. Some contend that he is a genius. I don't argue that point. Anyone who has read "End the Fed" has to admit he's no slouch when it comes to number-crunching. And it's partly because of his economic acumen, as well as his message of starve-the-beast fiscal austerity, that this sometimes-cranky, often-kooky congressman from Texas is a darling of the libertarian right. "Paulites" champion his policies as if he were Milton Friedman's heir apparent. Mainstream conservatives like me are pressured to concur with Paul by the Paulites, who insist that to be considered a true conservative, a...

In other news . . . Just kidding! There is no other news. Thanks to one congressman's penchant for provocative photography and his imperfect grasp of Twitter, all anyone can talk about is Anthony Weiner's stunning admission that he is, in fact, the jerk we always suspected him to be. As a woman, a New Yorker and a conservative political commentator, I can tell you that "Weinergate" has to be one of the more uncomfortable, silly and stomach-churning scandals I've ever covered. But as much as I would like Anthony and his camera-loving wiener to go away - I didn't...

I was on the S.E. Cupp Show yesterday talking about my book Subversion Inc.The video is http://www.glennbeck.com/secupp/?uri=channels%2F454003%2F1349032 My segment starts at about the 8:00 mark: ACORN is restructuring in time to help re-elect President Obama in 2012. Obama used to work for ACORN and represented the group in court as its lawyer. These radical leftists who use the brutal, in-your-face, Machiavellian pressure tactics of Saul Alinsky want to destroy America as we know it and will use any means to do it. Buy the book at Amazon. Visit the Subversion Inc. Facebook page. Follow me on Twitter.

This past week the "progressive" left laid claim to the women's vote of 2012. They intend to compete for the hearts and minds of women. They intend to win the votes of women, and they will lie, confuse, and mislead if necessary to do so. In short the left believe that the women's vote in America is something they can manipulate devoid of fact. More pathetically they believe women in droves will cascade with them over the cliff into the insanity the left offers--all the while attempting to convince them they are truly on their side. To the left, women...

The sign outside the ballroom was matter-of-fact: "Unsigned $20. Signed $15. No Haggling." That matter-of-fact sign was next to a matter-of-fact pile of books, which sat on a matter-of-fact folding table. And sitting behind it was a matter-of-fact man, whom you might walk right past without so much as a glance. That's too bad, because he could become the next President of the United States. The man was Michigan Rep. Thaddeus McCotter, and he was signing copies of his new book, "Seize Freedom! American Truths and Renewal in a Chaotic Age," outside the Conservative Principles Conference in Des Moines late...

As I am not a viewer of Joy Behar or a follower of Keith Olbermann, I missed the bizarre turn of events regarding his tweets. S.E. Cupp was a guest on Behar's show defending the defunding of Planned Parenthood and opposition to taxpayer funded abortions. Mr. Olbermann being ever the gentleman suggested the world would be a better place if her parents had sought out the services of Planned Parenthood. Given the original topic of abortion, it's not difficult to conclude he'd prefer that S.E. Cupp had been aborted. Amazing. When he was called on it, he said he meant...

The Red Eye crew took umbrage at Keith Olbermann’s recent Tweet about conservative columnist and talking head S.E. Cupp. On the off-chance you’ve yet to be dazzled by the poetry of Olbermann’s 140-character-of-less observations on people he wishes had never been born, he Tweeted the following: “On so many levels she’s a perfect demonstration of the necessity of the work Planned Parenthood does.” (Our own Tommy Christopher discussed Olbermann’s Tweet at length, writing that “Olbermann did deny wishing an abortion on Cupp, and did reference Kyl, but said ‘I never mentioned abortion. I said her parents could have used counseling...

Keith Olbermann is not known for his candor. In a sense, it‘s what’s made him a popular figure on the left. And sure, he makes off-the-wall comments sometimes in order to evoke a response. But he may have gone too far today when he suggested that conservative commentator S.E. Cupp is a prime example of why the world needs Planned Parenthood (PP). Translation, she should have never been born. Immediately, the comment drew fire from those who said Olbermann, the former MSNBC host turned Current TV commentator, insinuated Cupp should have been aborted. And just as quickly, Olbermann started treading...

An atheist praising Christianity is like a man biting a dog: It's news. Atheist Sarah Elizabeth "S.E." Cupp's book Losing Our Religion: The Liberal Media's Attack on Christianity (Harper, 2010) is attracting second looks because it's a pro-Christianity book by an atheist. Cupp, 31, is a regular guest on FOX News shows and a much-read blogger and columnist: She was a classically trained ballet dancer, graduated from Cornell, and enjoys fishing, target shooting, and NASCAR races. Earlier this year you earned a master's degree in religious studies at New York University, but I gather you made it up as you...

Excerpt: But if I seem both defensive and uncharacteristically gallant, that’s because I have a confession to make. There’s a reason why Cupp and I rarely, if ever, file on the same day. Because it’s a lot of work when you’re writing both columns. You see, I am S.E. Cupp. Are you happy, sexist? You made me say it. Jim Treacher played at outing me before, when I made him angry after I carelessly scratched his Very Best of Christopher Cross CD. But since Treacher has a dark secret of his own, he stopped short of pulling the trigger, and...

In an interview on the Christian Broadcasting Network, S.E. Cupp, wearing a gargantuan necklace, says that the MSM has become a tool of oppression. "I don't think you have to be a Christian to want a more responsible press.....the state, liberal media and Hollywood are all seemingly working together to oppress the Christian 'right'". A recent Gallup poll has revealed that 78% of Americans identify with some form of Christian religion. That's a whole bunch of people to oppress! Kudos S.E.!

S.E. Cupp, author of the new book, "Losing Our Religion", talks about the Liberal Media's attack on Christianity. "Now with careful, covert nudges from the Obama administration, a secular revolution that began decades ago, has gained unprecedented momentum. The goal of this secular revolution is to overthrow God and silence Christian America"! Of course, she looks so darn cute as usual!

One of our favorite Conservative commentators, S.E. Cupp, has written a new book: “Losing Our Religion: The Liberal Media’s Attack on Christianity” In support of this book S.E. sat down for an interview with Newsmax TV and discussed a variety of topics from religion, and the media’s continual disdain thereof, as well as Barack Obama’s radicalism and how the media simply can’t handle strong, smart, and attractive Conservative women. S. E. makes some interesting and provocative points: On religion, media bias, and her atheism...

She talks about online media and stuff. Does it really matter if this a January 18th clip? I think not. Minus the glasses and borderline politics, so forgive me in advance. She is nonetheless a media figger!

An October clip of S.E. Cupp sharing some of her (very distasteful) hate mail with a painfully boring host. I think Limbaugh would approve of this "young, female conservative" wearing her very conservative blouse. Go S.E!
