al-Qaeda Fleeing Iraq

Another day another clear indication that al-Qaeda is near defeat. In a previous post it was clear money and recruits were drying up for al-Qaeda as Iraqi Muslims turned on them to hunt them down and rid Iraq of Bin Laden’s thugs. And as the operational area for al-Qaeda shrinks and is surrounded by US […]

Huckabee’s Boomlet Is Over, Can Conservatives Lose Gracefully?

Want to know who will win the VA, MD and DC GOP primaries handily? It won’t be Huckabee, it will be McCain. The polls show McCain romping in these states who will vote tomorrow see (RCP polls for VA and MD). So when Huckabee is blown out of the South in VA will the delusional […]

al-Qaeda On Last Legs In Iraq According To AQ Documents

Even al-Qaeda is finally admitting what the US SurrenderMedia and Surrendercrats (a.k.a, Democrats) cannot admit: al-Qaeda is on its last legs in Iraq and our victory is getting closer by the day. In the words of our enemies: Al-Qaeda in Iraq faces an “extraordinary crisis”. Last year’s mass defection of ordinary Sunnis from al-Qaeda to […]

Pakistanis “Awaken” And Turn On Al-Qaeda & Taliban

We saw the same pattern in Iraq. Initial reports of a resurgent al-Qaeda turned over time to reports of locals rising up against al-Qaeda. In Iraq it was initiated through a movement now called the Anbar Awakening. And as I posted yesterday there are signs all over the place the same pattern is occurring in […]

Brit Hume’s Message To “True” Conservatives: Give McCain Space To Operate

Divided Dems Heading For Crack-Up III

Obama’s stunning wins over Hillary Saturday were impressive in vote margin, but marginal in terms of how little he was able to gain: While Mr. Obama had been expected to win the contests on Saturday, the margin of victories were surprising, particularly in Washington, a predominately white state where he captured 57 percent of the […]

Huckabee Win In KS Shows GOP Elites Not Ready For McCain

What does a caucus win in KS by Huckabee mean? Same thing all those caucus wins on Super Tuesday meant for Romney – nothing much. Until Huckabee wins primaries (and he has a shot in VA this Tuesday, but I doubt he will win it) all this shows is the continued resistance of the GOP […]
