What is behind the rash of bomb threats in schools across the country? There was a threat in a school in Wisconsin on Monday. There was a threat at a High School in Davenport Iowa today. There was a bomb threat in a middle school in South Amherst, Ohio today as well, the second in […]

The Democrats are in a world of political hurt. Their radical (and not entirely sane) anti-war base wants to surrender to Iraq as soon as possible, but brand new poll is out confirming an earlier poll showing Americans are in not in the mood to quit Iraq, but they instead want to win Iraq as […]

Quick and to the point this morning. Libby will be acquitted in a very short deliberation. OK, with that out of the way, let’s turn to John Edward’s continued spiral down the toilet. First he hires, fires, rehires and refires (for – against, for – against, perfect Kerry running mate) liberal bloggers who had no […]

After analyzing the prosecution’s closing arguments I can see a myriad of ways to enter reasonable alternatives (no need to prove any of them, innocent until proven guilty) and all fo them are of equal potential to the prosecution’s unproven speculation. Someone should go back and count the times the prosecution used the word ‘suggest’ […]

I am going to try and separate my analysis of the closing arguments into two or three posts, each covering the prosecution and defense arguments as relayed (translated?) via the leftwing site Firedig Lake, which has been doing everyone a great service in their dogged (no pun intended) coverage of the Libby trial. I will […]

A must read on the real status of the war on terrorism, if for nothing else than to take a break from the know-nothing, breathless doomsayers in the liberal media (who are never right about anything – including UFOs). A sneak peak: Part of the problem is that we attribute preternatural qualities to the terrorists […]

Ed Koch nails the left in this country for crying about how hard life is, when in fact they have nothing hard to deal with except the fact their policies are out of date and universally panned as failures. So what do they do? They complain for those who are living challenging and dangerous lives, […]

Americans booted the Reps from Congress because they were not doing much of anything, yet crowing about how great they were at everything. The stalemate of progress was laid at the feet of Rep leadership – rightfully so – which was stuck in partisanship deadlock or wedded to extreme views outside the mainstream. While the […]

The number of people seriously exposed to the ‘assassination’ of Alexander Litvinenko has increased by three over recent weeks. If we look at the last two HPA reports (here and here) we see an interesting pattern on where the contamination was apparently picked up: [1] 15 people had results above 6mSv which are not significant […]

Last night’s episode seemed to be ‘let’s explore everyone’s personal demons’ night. Maurice O’Brian’s drinking problem seems to be one of those strange side bars to Jack’s family issues with a murderous father – or something like that. Anyway, it was interesting to see the Homeland Security Secretary finally turn around and try and protect […]
