How does something like this happen? How can one man go on a 35 year rampage hunting children? Well here is one problem that just jumps right out from the story: Schwartzmiller’s criminal record began 35 years ago, but he never registered as a sex offender and spent just 12 years in prison. Why do […]

President Bush honored the 1700 Americans who have died in Iraq by standing pat and refusing to cut and run. He knows that to run, withdraw, shrink back – or even imply any of these – is tantamount to surrender. President Bush said Saturday that pulling out of Iraq now is not an option, rejecting […]

Greetings fellow Coalition members! It is time for another Carnival of Chillin’ to reatain pressure on the politicians to keep progressing judicial nominations and snuff out the unnecessary use sof the filibuster. I will be accepting links to your carnival posts through Tuesday evening so we can get our Carnival rolling by Wednesday. The first […]

I am still Chillin’ but Andre Martinez, in the New Hampshire Union Leader, makes some excellent points today on why the filibuster might need to be nuked any how. These points are especially valid in light of the vacuous Senate apology for not addressing anti-lynching legislation for decades (which is still crazy, murder is murder […]

Here is the lead sentence from AP on Durbin’s non-apology: Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., said Friday that he regretted any misunderstandings caused by his comments earlier this week comparing American interrogators at Guantanamo Bay to Nazis. Now here is non-apology from Durbin: “More than 1700 American soldiers have been killed in Iraq and our country’s […]

The NY Times has a ridiculous story out today trying to imply wrong doing at PBS now that it is under new management and being required to [shudder] reflect all of America! Perish the thought NY City Liberals have to deal with anyone out in fly over country. Before going to read the article, realize […]

The Strata-Sphere marks its one month anniversary on June 18th, and it is interesting that there is a huge discussion going on about which blogging community is more dynamic and more successful. Patrick Ruffini has been debating Chris Bowers on this topic. Chris believes the fact there are a handful of super-blogs on the left […]

Powerline has the first indication that Durbin and the Dems will need to face up to the storm Durbin has caused with his over-the-top partisan rhetoric. Durbin has not only insulted our military, but given plenty of PR ammunition to the terrorists. So the Boston Herald is the first newspaper to call for Durbin to […]

Durbin is such a putz. Via The Corner word came that Durbin had a so-called apology on his website: “More than 1700 American soldiers have been killed in Iraq and our country’s standing in the world community has been badly damaged by the prison abuses at Abu Ghraib and Guantanamo. My statement in the Senate […]

Strange combination isn’t it? Listening to Linda Chavez’s radio show today I learned Chavez used to be a democrat staffer at the Watergate and ran into one of the burglars the day of the break in. Obviously another famous ex-dem turned rep. Turns out she went to work on the congressional committee on watergate where […]
