On Friday, Giuliani spoke at CPAC and gave a semi-campaign speech. He mentioned that Congress is elected to make decisions, not to commentate. We have commentators in the media, we don’t need more. He stated that the next president needs to get Congress back to making decisions. He did not follow that by saying that […]

The New York Daily News has an interesting article on movie casting as part of today’s installment from Rush & Milloy. As someone who has a somewhat extensive DVD collection, I can appreciate the efforts a casting director puts into their work. Certainly, CSI does very well, largely due to the superb work that William […]

Over at Captain’s Quarters, there is a discussion of civility. On the previous thread is what appears to be his response to Ann Coulter’s comments. It’s a good post, but the comments at the second link are instructive as well. They are part of the reason that Republicans got spanked in the 2006 mid-terms. Conservatives […]

As the trial of Scooter Libby nears its end, the pundits on each side of the case have been fighting about one fundamental issue: was Plame a covert agent when Novak published her CIA credentials? Larry Johnson says yes, Victoria Toensig says no. I’ll admit up front that I am biased against Mr. Johnson, and […]

A while back, Flopping Aces published some great cartoons about the Democrats’ idea of supporting the troops. A post from last night has some more good ones that just say it better than thousands of words. Go over and check it out.

I don’t like pedophiles, and this is just one more reason why. In this case, it was a website of pedophiles gawking over the children and grandchildren of the various candidates for President.

Muharib Mohammed Abdullah, aka Abu Omar al-Baghdadi, was arrested in […]

Hello all! I’ve been given the privilege of guest blogging here in AJ’s absence, and I hope to make the most of it. Some of you may be familiar with my work, until March 1 of this year I maintained a blog at seixon.com, most famous for exposing the lies of George Galloway, refutations of […]

Global warming on Neptune’s moon Triton as well as Jupiter and Pluto, and now Mars has some scratching their heads over what could possibly be in common with the warming of all these planets. In the meantime, some have noticed an interesting relationship between solar activity and temperature proxies via ice cores going back thousands […]

I’m Harold Hutchison. Regularly, I blog at Called as Seen, but I also have contributed to Strategypage.com, a website covering military matters, among which is the war on terror. I hope to do a good job with this, and add to a very good blog that AJ has created.
