I think this call from Helen Thomas to the Democrat leadership is 100% correct: Democrats Must Call For Pullout Voters Will Punish Opposition For Not Opposing War It’s time for the Democratic Party to take a courageous stand and call for the withdrawal of troops from the senseless war in Iraq. Helen obviously cannot add [...]

Hat Tip to K-Lo at the NRO Corner for this shattering evidence of what a media made fiction the Cindy Sheehan story is: Can you say ‘staged‘? Looks just like filming for a made-for-TV movie, which of course it is! Check out LGF for the close up version America will see on the news

Given the rightful focus on the devastation being wrought by Katrina I was hesitant to put out a round up today, but when I see the Norristown Times Herald with a story I cannot resist. Today the Times Herald discusses things the commission missed or did not report – a theme we will be returning [...]

I think Americans can rightfully feel like they have been lied to or duped by politicians in Washington trying to cover for the Clinton Administration. One thing the Able Danger issue did cause was a re-examination of events that could be gleaned by bloggers from public records and news items. Then the non-MSM journalists jumped [...]

Yep, they’re big, they’re bulky and they can’t see a thing in front of their face…. But they rampage all the same! Go check out the Raging RINOs at the Big Cat Chronicles.

The news for New Orleans looks bleak. Drudge has this chilling report: 1011 AM CDT SUN AUG 28 2005 DEVASTATING DAMAGE EXPECTED HURRICANE KATRINAA MOST POWERFUL HURRICANE WITH UNPRECEDENTED STRENGTH…RIVALING THE INTENSITY OF HURRICANE CAMILLE OF 1969.

At least according to this Time news article I ran across: It’s hard to separate the man from the mythology, but recent European intelligence reports reviewed by TIME suggest that al-Zarqawi’s al-Qaeda franchise is expanding far beyond Iraq and that he now rivals Osama bin Laden in influence among Middle Eastern and European jihadists. Al-Zarqawi [...]

You know, you’d think the leftward fringes in this country would be ecstatic about the Iraqi government. Turn outs the current President (soon to be ex-President it would seem) is against the death penalty: Iraqi President Jalal Talabani said in remarks that he would not sign a death sentence against his ousted predecessor Saddam Hussein [...]

This is one of those stories that makes you shake your head and say what idiot did this? And then you are thankful that at least someone learned of the idiot’s mistake. AUSTRALIAN nuclear experts working to prevent terrorists launching a regional “dirty bomb” attack have found large, unsecured sources of dangerous radioactive material in [...]

Warriors are not characterized by cowardly acts on innocent people -especially children. The attack on a ferry in the Phillipines illustrates why the Islamacist thugs will never gain the respect of anyone. LAMITAN, Philippines: At least 30 people, including several children, were wounded yesterday in a bomb attack on a ferry believed to have been [...]

The NY Time has this article and this picture by Suthep Kritsanavarin on what might be the largest fresh water fish ever caught. Where was that thing hiding? It goes with this enormous shark we posted on a few weeks back.

Sorry for the outages folks. Our web hosting provider has been having some serious issues this weekend. It’s not traffic to this site but some upgrade they tried to put in that caused some problems. Hopefully they will have it all worked out soon. Keep checking back if we are not here!

Somedays you wonder how you too could make living writing this stuff. From the NY Times we have this story, and this lead from their main page: Some parents of troops killed in Iraq appear as divided as the rest of the nation in their opinions of Cindy Sheehan and the antiwar encampment named for [...]

Time magazine came out with an article on Able Danger which is focused on the marginal issue of what the 9-11 commission knew and when did it know it. Personally I want to know what the Able Danger team knew in 2000 and why their efforts to contact the FBI were squashed by legal cowering. [...]
