Iowahawk is one of the funniest conservatives on the planet.\u00a0 During the Iraq War his mockery of Al Qaeda psychopath Abu Musab Al-Zarqawi (or as featured in Iowahawk the Zarkman) provided a little bit of dark humor during some of the darkest days of that war.<\/p>\n

During the 2008 election William F Buckley\u2019s son Christopher joined the other Rockefeller Republicans in signing up for the Obama Historic Disaster.\u00a0 They couldn\u2019t countenance Sarah Palin as part of the ticket.\u00a0 Iowahawk brilliantly lampoons the Buckley upper-crust horror at Palin and the swooning descriptions of Obama.<\/p>\n

Unfortunately in 2014 Iowahawk ceased writing posts to his website and seemed to restrict himself to Twitter (which I\u2019ve never followed).\u00a0 So, I never had a chance to follow his thoughts during the Trumpocalypse.\u00a0 Well, all good things must end sometime.\u00a0 But I figured I\u2019d share this bit of right-wing internet history for any who missed it or were too young.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
