Blanco plotted with the Senate Democrats to win partisan points. My posts on Katrina have consistently pointed out that Governor Blanco, who is the lead in emergency response and relief efforts for Louisiana, was a unmitigated disaster. She and Mayor Nagin delayed evacuation prior to Katrina’s landfall, and then delayed evacuation and the infusion of […]

A must read by Mona Charon on all the leaking going on in Langley Virginia. Money line: The CIA is no longer in the business of political assassination. It has, however, moved on to character assassination. OK. Shut it down then. There is capacity in the DoD and NSA to cover for them if they […]

Given how little Fitz Magoo has accomplished in all this time, and how much he missed, is it any wonder the Wunder-Klutz may have to back off a Rove indictment because he himself did not recall events correctly? From Atrios we get to this CNN update: BOB FRANKEN, CNN NATIONAL CORRESPONDENT: Well, it’s very delicate. […]

This is going to be short because I am going to work on an Exclusive Interview post about someone I discovered who worked at Michael Jackson’s Neverland ranch during certain ‘key’ periods. When I met up with an old friend of mine this summer who I had not seen in years, he told me of […]

The latest poll has the liberal media so stunned, that it is hard to find a site that has the numbers. CNN and USA Today, who commissioned the poll, are not advertising the results because they are so bad for the Sheehan/Murtha/Pelosi side of the debate: If you had to choose, which do you think […]

This is an update to my previous post regarding my belief that Joe Wilson was rushed to Niger in 2002 to do damage control for the CIA, or a rogue group inside the CIA, regarding illicit uranium trade of some sort in Niger. Recall Wilson talked only to leaders who took power in the 1999 […]

For those like myself, who are anxiously optimistic about the next round of elections in Iraq and who want to know how it is going, I would suggest the Iraqi Model site. Here is the pre-election update or Nov 29, 2005. A very compelling look into a people grasping democracy with both hands and taking […]

Real Clear Politics linked to a really well stated case for supporting the war today in the UK Times. What caught my eye was the title which appeared to equate freedom with Pandora’s box – which is an analogy I refute whole heartedly. Yes, we have opened Pandora’s box in Iraq – but freedom has […]

I know it is shrinking minority, but it needs to be completely disavowed. Those who focus on sexuality generally verses documented invasive (or exposing) behavior in the public square are hurting the conservative cause by re-inforcing a favorite liberal stereo type for the right. Schwarzenegger’s new Chief of Staff is being opposed due to her […]
