I am right of center, but I guess I’m barely right of center these days. Anyway, I was polled on who I thought would be included in a list of the most important people of the year. Three of my submissions never made the list and could not even beat out Tancredo, which shows probably […]

The Surge is producing the one result the pessimists claimed it could never produce – protecting Iraqis. The theory from the Surrender-at-all-costs crowd is our efforts will be useless in a civil war. But if this is not a civil war but is the blood-thirsty, repression of Iraqis by al-Qaeda then we would expect to […]

Wanted to do a Fly By on the War on terrorism and some key stories out of Iraq and Afghanistan. Not much time for commentary on these this morning. To the surprise (actually, ‘dismay’ would be a more accurate word) of the liberal media the results of The Surge are still paying dividends. The death […]

The Clarence Thomas interview on 60 minutes last night was rivetting – and telling. The reason it was powerful was because it was his life in his own words, and the man speaks with passion. Thomas is from the deep south, from the days of ugly segregation. But his family’s strong work ethic launched him […]

Update: Captain Ed is a must read today on the topic of purists verses big tent conservatives. I am not alone in my views on this matter, not by a long shot. – end update Want to know how bad the split is in the GOP between the small minority of purists who attack everyone […]

In a world were tens of thousands of fanatical Muslims wake up each day think of better ways to try and kill as many Americans as their warped minds can conjure, there are people on the far left who are so desperate to pretend they do not exist they announce their self imposed blinders to […]

It is amazing what you can get when you Google ‘terror’. It seems a new Star Trek movie is in the works and it will include a Rider of Rohan as the Romulan leader. Instead it looks like we’re getting one of the long-haired Riders of Rohan as the Romulan leader – the same guy […]

Want a chilling example of what al-Qaeda could do in America or EU if we let up on the pressure we are applying on the in Iraq? Here’s a real life example: Italian police have arrested an Iraqi man suspected of links to Al-Qaeda in Iraq and planning attacks in his country using light aircraft […]

Boy, as if the far right has not done enough to alienate America over illegal aliens, now they are taking on the icons of Science Fiction: Jonah, as for your discovery of your distaste for Star Trek: The Next Generation, let’s face it, the show was a conservative’s nightmare unless, maybe, you’re Ron Paul. Oh […]
