Major Update: The Washington Post is reporting that Scott Roeder is one of those pathological zealots in the pro life movement who have no problem killing ‘murderers’:
Scott Roeder, identified Sunday as a possible suspect in the slaying of prominent Kansas late-term abortion provider George R. Tiller, is known in anti-abortion circles as a man who believes that [...]

Update: Despite the denial on the right and the ranting of leftward nuts like Andrew Sullivan – who is raging about all Christians as if they do nothing but murder people – there is a rational ‘center’ to this horrific news, best illustrated by a commenter at Gateway Pundit:
Despite peoples’ wishes, I think we’re going [...]

It is as I feared, the ‘true conservatives’ have no self control, no class and no business trying to lead a reborn conservative movement to oppose Obama. It is beyond their meager skills. Their over the top, childish rhetoric is the problem – they cannot form a serious thought or debate point. It is become [...]

In honor of America’s troops, we have sponsored two fantastic organizations this month by providing free ads. Homes for our Troops is an organization that provides homes for severely injured Servicemen and Women and their immediate families by raising donations of money, building materials and professional labor and then coordinating the process of building a new home [...]

Fact: the global rise in temperature over the last 100 years has been less than a degree – if that. The truth is we cannot yet measure a global temperature to a degree yet, and we surely  couldn’t 100 years ago.
Fact: temperatures have been dropping for the last decade eliminating much of the warming that [...]

One of the sings that indicated to me, very early on in Iraq, that The Surge in Anbar Province was going to work as it expanded across Iraq was the fact that the Islamo Fascist terrorists were targeting the Muslim Main Street – thereby creating the backlash that turned al Qaeda from the future of [...]

Major Update: Two US Senators are now asking for details on the decision process – one from each party!
U.S. Sens. Claire McCaskill and Kit Bond wrote a letter Friday to President Barack Obama’s auto task force seeking answers to concerns raised by Chrysler and General Motors dealerships in Missouri that learned last week their contracts will be terminated.
Auto dealers [...]

When it comes to attracting support for conservatives, few exemplify what is wrong with the ‘true conservatives’ like the mental midget Mark Levin:
LEVIN: Yeah, sure, he can do whatever he wants. Let me ask you a question. Why do you hate this country?
CALLER: No, I love this country.
LEVIN: (angrily shouting) I SAID WHY DO YOU [...]

If there is one issue the Democrats and the Obama administration will be skewered on in 2010 it is the job situation. Right now we already know the ’shovel ready’ stimulus pork spending bill is a woeful failure. But if in addition to this job busting disaster is not enough, we may have the makings [...]

I don’t have a lot to say about the nomination of judge Sotomayor for the Supreme Court except to voice a warning to the GOP. As Fred Grandy said this morning on his radio show, unless the GOP has some hard and clear evidence she did not interpret the law but used personal bias to [...]

North Korea has just raised the stakes again today, junking the Korean War Armistice and declaring itself at war with the West:
North Korea threatened a military response to South Korean participation in a U.S.-led program to seize weapons of mass destruction, and said it will no longer abide by the 1953 armistice that ended the Korean War.
“The [...]

If you ever feel like the world is spinning out of control and heading for the dumpster, just come back and watch the magic. H/T Gateway Pundit.

And so we finally come to it. President Obama is facing severe national security tests this Memorial Day Weekend. First is a nuclear armed North Korea:

There have been expressions of international outrage after North Korea said it had successfully carried out an underground nuclear test.
After seismologists confirmed it had the power of a 4.5 quake, [...]

It is good to see the Obama administration pushing Pakistan to root out the terrorists from their last major sanctuaries in northern Pakistan. This area represents a major threat to peace and security in the west. It is the birthplace of al Qaeda and not far from where the 9-11 attacks (and others – since [...]

Well, we can all now clearly see how the recent – behind close doors – Congressional ‘investigation’ of the CIA briefings on enhanced interrogation went. Democrats are scrambling to end the discussion and move on before any more details come out:
Pelosi and leading Republicans have asked for the briefing memos to be declassified, each side [...]
