Why has the United States avoided a second attack against the homeland – even overseas assets like ships, embassies and military bases – for so long? The fact is many attacks have been thwarted prior to them being implemented, for example Richard Reid and his exploding shoes and the UK Airline plot where explosive disguised […]

Barrack Obama is about to test the patience of his liberal base. Of his many flip-flops, none is generating more of a backlash than his surrender on the new FISA-NSA rules, which give Bush and the administration all they wanted, and more. This week the Senate is going to vote on the making the new […]

Be clear on any victory we achieve in the Global War On Terror – it will never stop the suicide bombings. Not completely. Victory will make the bombing the exception, not the rule.  Look at Iraq where bombings are now rare, as opposed to the pre-Surge conditions where they were a daily affair. For other […]

For some reason there are those on the right still trying to enforce purity of thought on the conservative coalition, and are willing to throw John McCain under the bus to ensure the GOP is rid of what some folks love to disparagingly refer to as RINOs (Republicans In Name Only). Being an Independent Conservative […]

What is a ‘waste’? Is it a waste to buy chocolate (being it is a luxury and not a necessity for life, though I know some who would disagree with me here)? Is it a waste to spill half your Strarbuck’s Mugo-Grande, Sinfully Slimming Latter Puree because Barack Obama just said abortions should be illegal […]

al-Qaeda has been defeated in Iraq and Lebanon. They failed to make a serious presence in Egypt, Jordan and Saudi Arabia. They and their Taliban cousins have been expunged from 75% of Afghanistan. al-Qaeda has been pushed into its final, small sanctuary inside the tribal areas of Pakistan where it is surrounded by 100,000 Pakistani […]

Iraq did what we wanted it to do. When we invaded Iraq we did many things (removed a dictator who had ties to al-Qaeda and preposition arms in embassies across Europe to arm al-Qaeda sleeper cells for one), but one of the most important goals of the invasion was to divert al-Qaeda’s attention. Liberal Surrendercrats […]

Welcome Hot Air and Little Green Footballs Readers May I suggest much more important topics such as Our Pending Victory In Iraq, The Determination Of Our Soldiers To Succeed In Iraq, Obama’s Flip-Flops, and Nagging Problems On Flight 93 Memorial. This birth certificate myth is just not that import Addendum: I failed to note LJStrata […]

Supply and demand – the immutable law of economics. When supplies are larger than demand, consumers benefit. When supplies are less than demand – corporations and governments benefit (through taxes and the opportunity to control sectors of the economy). If you don’t trust mega-corps or government bureaucrats, not only are you sane you should be […]

I think the big question this election year is whether Obama will be tagged with the flip-flop sandal image or the flip-flop ‘fish out of water’ image. Personally, I am of the opinion Obama the neophyte is in over his head, out of his element, and therefore the flopping, gasping fish is more accurate. Right […]
