Unless something dramatic happens in the next four hours, Iraq will have just passed a huge milestone relative to security. This month there have been 12 US deaths in Iraq, only 8 of which were due to hostile fire. This mark is very much worth celebrating and thanking all those in the US and Allied […]

I ran across this article which had my alarm bells ringing. It discusses illegal immigrants being smuggled into Turkey, where they were heading their way into the heart of Europe. The alarm bells sounded when I noticed where these immigrants hailed from. Take special note of the blind liberal/socialist bleeding heart headline: Voyage to hope […]

OK – I lied, it ain’t happening. What would be the thinking across the country if 30% of Republicans or Conservatives planned to vote for Barrack Obama? It would be seen as the death knell for McCain. So what should we think about the current trend of mass defections of Democrats from Obama? New data […]

We have achieved a stunning victory in Iraq. al-Qaeda rushed reinforcements into that country to take out The Great Satan and establish their modern caliphate. Those Muslims who leaned towards the romantic vision of Jihad, as promoted by the Islamo Fascists, rushed to Iraq to share in the glory. Now they are dead and captured […]

The Surrendercrat Media is starting to give legs to the little publicized news on how Barrack Obama failed a key test of leadership and being Commander-in-Chief. I posted days ago on Obama’s unforgivable sin of setting high expectations among our wounded troops by a visit to them in Germany, and then backing off when a […]

July 2008 is going to shatter all previous records for peace and security in Iraq if the standard statistics for violence in that country hold through tomorrow. As of today the previous record low levels for US and Allied troop deaths in Iraq has been 19 in May 2008 and 20 in February 2004. July […]

The tensions and fighting are still escalating in the tribal areas that span the Pakistan-Afghanistan border region. While US, NATO and Afghani troops have a good handle on the Afghan side of the problem area, the Pakistan tribal regions known as FATA and NWFP (click map below for larger image) are the last large sanctuary […]

Yesterday I predicted Obama’s poll ‘bounce’ from his whirl wind gaffe tour would not last, and in fact he would drop back into a tie (or worse) with McCain before the end of the week. So far that prediction is coming true as we look at the Gallup Daily Tracking Poll numbers come in:   […]

I see liberalism as the Walter Mitty daydream run amok. Why some people have the arrogance (and usually lack the scientific and technical knowledge) to think they can come to the rescue of humankind is beyond me. It is rare these days to find an easy answer to anything. Humanity’s large endeavors require the coordinated […]

Remember Al Gore, the guy who couldn’t even carry his home state? Well Barrack Obama will likely carry his home state, but he is betting he can pull a hat out of the rabbit and take VA (which is very purple right now and getting bluer). He seems to think if he can tap our […]
