Hat Tip to Mark Coffey at Decision 08 on finding this incredible piece by Christopher Hitchens. The article covers how Al Iraqiya Television is unmasking and exposing the insurgents by presenting them to the Iraqi people. A stunning PR effort which, surprisingly, the US could not implement due to the Geneva Convention (since when is […]

America sent our military men and women into Iraq to change the world and stem the tied of Islamic fascism. To date this valient effort has cost 1700 lives and numerous damaged lives and bodies.

After months and months of battling a stubborn and careless legislature (how do you think CA got into the fiscal mess it is in now?) The Governator is […]

Right Wing Nut House has a great idea! I bet Dean wins big in the first round. Get your candidate posts in for your favorite Clueless One(s), there is more than enough material out there. It will take me all day to sift through my candidates. UPDATE! The Carnival is Up!

Here is an interesting article from the Washington Times which claims the democrats are already violating their agreement. Democrats led by Sen. Edward M. Kennedy of Massachusetts stopped a federal appeals court nominee last week by demanding that more of his unpublished legal opinions be provided to them.

Peter Brookes makes some good points in the NY Post today in support of legislation being pushed through Congress. The UN needs to overhauled and show results before the US puts a lot of money into it. This week, the House of Representatives will debate and vote on the United Nations Reform Act of 2005, […]

NYTimes runs an article on a Congressional Report on the United Nations. The earth shattering conclusion is: A Congressionally mandated panel will report this week that the United Nations suffers from poor management, “dismal” staff morale and lack of accountability and professional ethics How much did we have to pay for this duh!-report? A waste […]
