Nancy Pelosi is not stupid. She is the Speaker of the House of Representatives, fourth in line to lead this nation. But lately, she either wants America to think she is a few shades away from the Hollywood classical dumb blonde, or she thinks Americans are too slow to figure out she knew and condoned […]

While the far right melts down before our eyes, I am glad to see the Obama administration redoubling their efforts to bring total and final victory to Iraq. This is not a time for politically myopic hopes that President Obama to fail America and her fallen heroes.  There is simply too much at stake: April […]

President Obama has always had the opportunity to really shine. Our country gives a lot of deference to the person sitting as Command-in-Chief (rightfully so). I am really glad to see two things on Drudge today and want to memorialize them as a good day for President Obama. The first is this heart warming picture […]

After 9-11 al Qaeda was the future of Islam, infamous for having delivered a massive blow against the Great Satan. […]

  An interesting bit of news has come out on the hunt for Bin Laden. Some researchers at UCLA decided to apply some statistical models to the problem of determining where Bin Laden may be hiding out, and have concluded he may be hiding in one of three possible buildings in a large town near […]

The Brave New World of President Obama has some disturbing trends to it. The worst is the attempt to go back to a pre 9-11 delusional state that a violently oppressive form of religion can co-exist with modern, open, western societies. We humans spent the 1990’s pretending that blood lusting jihadis in Afghanistan and Pakistan […]
