Kerry The Scumbag

Posted by AJStrata on October 31st, 2006

John Kerry - and the Democrats who made him their standard bearer - is scum. Pure, unadulterated and unapologetic scum. John Kerry said things yesterday that are pure hate and bile. He stated that only educated people would know better than to defend and die for this nation. He is […]

More On The Steele Earthquake In MD

Posted by AJStrata on October 31st, 2006

I don’t think the Democrats appreciate the damn that just broke on them in MD. While everyone is focused on Foley and Iraq, the Democrats’ most stalwart base just defected. And this will not be a one time, one place phenomena. The democrats have always been all talk. And now the […]

Is The GOP GOTV Machine Working?

Posted by AJStrata on October 31st, 2006

Seems so. Let’s combine some recent stories here to get some perspective. First, the news out today is that the GOP is seeing a good indicators from early and absentee voting. It seems they are on track to get a lot of voters out, exceeding the 2004 mark (a presidential election year) […]

Unverified Polling Practices

Posted by AJStrata on October 30th, 2006

At RCP’s latest poll page there are all these RT Strategies/CD polls which tend to all tilt leftward of the other polls. Look at any close race and you will see RT Strategies/CD as the most left leaning polls in the lot - here for example, where this would not even be close if […]

Steele Will Win In MD

Posted by AJStrata on October 30th, 2006

It is now a foregone conclusion Micheal Steele should win the Senate race in MD now that many black democratic leaders from heavily black and democratic Prince George’s County have come out to openly support Steele:
A coalition of black Democratic political leaders from Prince George’s County led by former county executive Wayne K. Curry endorsed […]

Umbical Cord Stem Cells Grow Micro Liver

Posted by AJStrata on October 30th, 2006

In another blow to the Embryonic Stem Cell (ESCR) Voodoo medicine, researchers have been able to take umbilical cord stem cells (technically part of the fetus, not the mother - check the DNA) and grow a small liver from the stem cells found in the cord:
British scientists have grown the world’s first artificial liver from […]

Here is someone who is on target with much of the embryonic stem cell debate. No need to add anything.

Global Warming Alarm Bells

Posted by AJStrata on October 30th, 2006

I will have more on this later, but in this panic call for higher taxes to fend off Global Warming (not sure how that is supposed to work, raise taxes and hurricanes will dissipate???) all one needs to see in the reporting is the hidden caveat:
He was speaking after it was revealed that Environment […]

Major Attack On Al Qaeda (Zawahiri) In Pakistan

Posted by AJStrata on October 30th, 2006

Update: Time is all worried that by attacking the terrorists, we and other nations fighting to win this war might irritate the enemy and there could be a backlash:
A Pakistani military air strike on a pro-Taliban religious school in the country’s volatile North West Frontier Province has set off a flurry of protest in Pakistan, […]

Islamic Sheik Denounces Al Qaeda In Iraq

Posted by AJStrata on October 30th, 2006

Think we are losing the war of hearts and minds in the ME with what is going on in Iraq? Think again.
“Then [after a while,] the [Al-Qaeda in Iraq] organization suddenly and inexplicably began to act in a strange manner. They began to liquidate religious scholars… I do not want to mention names, for […]

Tora Bora Vacation?

Posted by AJStrata on October 30th, 2006

I am just not sure what to make of the news there are plans to turn Bin Laden’s Tora Bora hideout into a tourist spot. While part of me recoils at the idea of dismissing Bin Laden, another part of me notes that the image of Bin Laden as a tourist symbol is quite […]

The Uneducated Masses

Posted by AJStrata on October 30th, 2006

One has to wonder what kind of dribble is being passed off as news analysis when Swedes find the US is more of a threat than North Korea and Iran. The younger the age the less memory there is for the days when the US came to cleanse Europe of the violent fascism of […]

Poll Bias In Turnout Modelling

Posted by AJStrata on October 30th, 2006

I am surprised Michael Barone was not more forceful in his article today where he notes the polls we see are all way off from the make up of the country. Pew Research has been measuring the political affiliations of the country and it has seen about a 33-33-33 split (D-R-I) for the Bush […]

Insulting The Good People As Elitist Entertainment

Posted by AJStrata on October 30th, 2006

I have been wanting to write about a commercial I saw during the week which epitomized the view of the liberal elites regarding the common people. The elitist love to make fun of us common folks. Look at just about every sitcom from the one with Archie Bunker (can’t recall the name right […]

J Fox Irresponsible

Posted by AJStrata on October 29th, 2006

What kind of person goes out and stumps for the death of young humans without even reading up on what he is promoting? It seems the kind of person is like Michael J Fox:
Fox: Well, I don’t think that’s true. You know, I campaigned for Claire McCaskill. And so I have to qualify it by […]
