Tom Delay Back To Congress
Looks like Tom Delay is heading back to Congress due to one of the dumbest political miscalculations by the left since 1994. I predicted as much a few weeks past.

Why would Sydney Blumenthal risk everything to publicize the fact he has been leaked – and is publicizing – classified information? The leftwing, anti-Israel sites are lapping this up. But my guess is Sydney just won himself an invite to a Grand Jury looking into leaks at the NSA: A report by columnist Sidney Blumenthal […]

Their simply are a lot of people in the international media who are rooting for the underdog and […]

Iran is pulling out all the stops to help Hezbollah. They are pulling Osama Bin Laden’s son out of house arrest (yeah, right) so he can go to Lebanon and follow in his father’s hellish footsteps: Iran has freed a son of al Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden from house arrest, a German newspaper reported […]

Once in a while it makes sense to take terrorists at their word. If we had listened to Bin Laden when he was foreshadowing his attacks on America we may have been more prepared and better defended. So when a Hezbollah agent in Damascus Syria claims that liberals from around the world are flocking to […]
