Maryland was one of the Senate races I picked for a possible GOP pickup (along with WV – ain’t going to happen – NJ, MN and WA – not likely). If Cardin wins, which looks likely, then I think Rep Steele will win in the general election. I live outside DC and the black community […]

The NY Times is one of the most incoherent news organizations I have seen. After exposing the NSA Terrorist Surveillance Program (which is nothing new per the Church Committee Report from 1978) and the SWIFT terrorist financial tracking program, and after all sorts of reports and editorials claiming Bush is hyping the war, that since […]

Well, one thing is for sure – oil and gas prices will not be an issue the Democrats can exploit and pretend they could do something about this fall, not with gas heading towards $2 per gallon. Of course the driver is supply and demand. And since we found a supply of oil in the […]

You can tell when President Bush believes something with all his soul, he delivers it with an intensity that is crystal clear. The President’s speech sounded the perfect note for this 5th anniversary of 9-11. Bush rightfully noted that we have not been attacked again since 9-11, and that is due to his pro-active actions […]

Man, through the fourth hour the show was doing really well. The Clintonistas did not fair well in any of this. The first night pretty much mocked Tenet, Berger, Albright and Cohen. Much of it seemed a bit over the top in fact. I doubt Tenet was such a whiney whimp. Tonight I would not […]

Jim Moran is one the biggest idiots to hold high office. He is the perfect example of how anybody can succeed in America. At a 9-11 memorial in Arlington (home of the Pentagon) he had to take a serious moment and politicize it with partisan jabs at Bush. Needless to say he got an earful […]

Chris Mathews was interviewing Gov Pataki tonight as the Govenor was listing off all the construction efforts at Ground Zero. He was proudly announcing the fact that the memorial, the transportation center and the new WTC Towers were all being built and it was an indication of American spirit and resilience. And then Mathews opened […]
