Brief posting this morning, so I only have time for a Fly By. The Canadian elections yesterday culminated the year plus decline of the corrupt Martin Liberal government. The Liberals should have understood that taking tax payer money to shore up their elections and bribe people to launder that election money was going to end […]

I have been so fixated in the FISA-NSA imbroglio that I have not even done a Fly By (quick round up on various topics) in weeks! Talk about being obsessed. First off, some fun. Go Skins! They somehow were able to stumble through to a win against Tampa Bay. I have to admit, I was […]

Meetings today, so light blogging and delays in authorizing comments to go through. The big ‘dud’ in the news so far has been the discovery of detention centers for insurgents in Iraq. There has been rumors of mistreatment. Of course, when the Iraqis are trying to stop the next slaughter of women and children at […]

Well the snow scare here in DC was, again, not what was predicted. Our 4-6 inches was more like 2-3, but with a cap of frozen rain it seems (I have not been out yet). Earlier this week there was 4-6 inches predicted and we barely got 1 inch. But for the DC area, it […]

Regarding Murtha, he is all worn out and lost on all the important facts, and the shell of a broken partisan old war horse. The guy is living in some sort of liberal fantasy world. Nuff said. Ed Morrissey has much more on this. I can’t seem to get that interested in the irrelevant. The […]

UPDATE: I missed this story which was posted by Don Surber yesterday. Surber’s comment caught my eye: Tom Daschle admitted to a couple of LA Times reporters what I have suspected all along: Much of the Democratic support for the war was merely to get votes. I find this actually shameful. It is one thing […]

I hope everyone had a great Thanksgiving! In recent years, with my parents now in their 80’s, my family of six moves into my parent’s home (five miles down the road) for a few nights so we can do the cooking and prepping and hosting and eating and drinking without moving the wild horde between […]

UPDATE II: OK, I do business and I can tell when one is heading for disaster. From what I read about the history of the effort at Dennis the Peasant and the state of the matter at Poliblogger I can see OSM is not going to make it. The site is a disaster and plans […]

The Washington Post runs an interesting editorial on Woodward, the press, confidential sources and the need to investigate crimes. WE’VE SAID from the start of the investigation into the leak of Valerie Plame’s identity that if administration officials deliberately set out to unmask a secret agent, they should be punished. But we’ve also said that, […]

I was driving this morning and the talk shows were ablaze with Rep Murtha’s comments, so I had to go see what the fool had said. Well, he starts off by insulting the troops: Rep. John P. Murtha (D-Pa.), a decorated Vietnam War veteran, said many of those troops are demoralized and poorly equipped and, […]
