Desperately clinging to the hope we can be stuck with the mess we have now with illegal immigration for another 10 years or more, the immigration hypochondriacs are cheering a democrat Senator for getting a poison pill amendment through late last night. A fragile compromise that would legalize millions of unlawful immigrants risks coming unraveled […]

Researchers have been able to turn skin cells into stem cells in mice, giving researchers an unlimited supply of cells straight from the patient from which to creare therapies. Three scientific teams published separate studies on Wednesday showing that embryonic stem cells can be made by reprogramming some of the genes in adult skin cells, […]

And yet we have some more indications al-Qaeda is losing support in their last large enclave inside Iraq: Circumstantial evidence indicates al Qaeda in Iraq is weakening and popular support is swinging toward the coalition in Iraq’s Diyala province, the commander of U.S. military forces there said yesterday.

My site has been plagued by false claims of pending doom on the immigration issue. These false profits of doom keep emphasizing the empty rhetoric Bush so accurately called the immigration bill’s opponents on.

I admit I missed the fact Scott Rassmussen did ask the question I wanted to see. He did ask whether the nation would prefer the status quo over the compromise: Forty-nine percent (49%) of voters prefer no bill over the Senate bill.

Most of the far right complain when Bush reaches across the aisle and teams with liberal stalwarts like Ted Kennedy. But there is always common ground to do good things, especially when it comes to the universal support we all have for our kids. The results of No Child Left Behind are coming in – […]

Seems all the poison pill amendments meant to scuttle the Immigration Bill in the Senate are failing. Are all sides finally understanding that this subject is tanking everyone and that leaving us the status quo is a political kiss of death? Doubtful in my opinion. But it is interesting to see so many go down […]

Democrats ask the silliest questions. Their entire debate seemed to be about “are we safer” since 9-11 and George Bush. The answer is yes on many levels. The real question is “are we fighting back?
