Iraq has turned a corner. a-Qaeda is being destroyed and, even worse, humiliated on the battlefield as they run from the battles and leave their troops to die. In comparison, the Iraqi forces are standing tall: he Iraqi soldiers and units working with the Multinational Division North are “holding firm,” the director of operations for […]

If the immigration Bill is going to pass the cloture vote we know it will be close. I am not sure which way it will go but I think it will pass the cloture 62-37 27. The 37 27 opposed will be mostly the GOP deadenders. If it passes this test it will go through […]

Al Gore is a buffoon. A self absorbed, egotistical buffoon. He is now all upset because scientists – who clearly disagree on the level of responsibility man-made activities have on the current global warming and how effective voodoo science like Kyoto would be in impacting the global climate – just cannot see how SIMPLE it […]

Update: Michael Yon is reporting in again and sees things on the ground basically the same way I have seen them distantly through the lense of the media: Al Qaeda in Iraq (AQI) had tarnished its name here by publicly attacking and murdering children, videotaping beheadings, all while imposing harsh punishments on Iraqi civilians found […]

Side with the Amnesty Hypochondriacs in the GOP because if they succeed and tank the immigration Bill in the Senate there will be no new legislation on this issue for the remainder of Bush’s term and well into the next President’s […]

al-Qaeda took a strike at those Iraqis who have been fighting back against their jack-boot tactics: A suicide bomber killed 12 people in the lobby of a busy Baghdad hotel on Monday, and the US military said six tribal leaders opposed to Al Qaeda were among the dead. It was one of four separate bombings […]

As al-qaeda is routed from its Iraq strongholds by Iraqis (see post below for the latest) they have to set their sights on something to show some progress in their jihad against the West and the moderate Arab states. Their plans to disable Lebanon have been thwarted for now by the Lebanese. So what is […]

Too many conservatives are out of control emotionally when it comes to the immigration issue. Their obsession against defining gates and thepayment of fines and taxes for those who came or stayed in this country illegally (the majority actually coming from the latter group) that are contained in the current immigration bill has made these […]

The clearing of al-Qaeda and the Islamo Fascists from Baquoba is nearly complete, which is much quicker than I think anyone expected: U.S. forces believe the initial combat phase of a major offensive to clear al Qaeda from the Iraqi city of Baquba is nearly complete and any militants left could be confronted in the […]
