Will Global Warming Save The Rain Forest? Possibly – but it definitely will help them, and biodiversity as well: Climate change may lead to lush growth rather than catastrophic tree loss in the Amazonian forests, researchers from the US and Brazil have found. A study, in the journal Science, found that reduced rainfall had led […]

What happens when some far right hot heads go off half cocked against the leader of their party and call him a traitor, or give him names like El Presidente Jorge Bush? The moderate middle, which determines who wins elections, dumps the GOP as too unstable and untrustworthy to be an ally: Dozens of corporate […]

What destroyed al-Qaeda in Iraq was their blind ruthlessness and willingness to do anything for power. In al-Qaeda case that is a very brutal and bloody distance they are willing to go. But in the end it did not matter how far they were willing to go (the passion of a martyr knows few bounds, […]

Want to know how powerful MoveOn.org is with Democrats? MoveOn provides the life blood – money – of any political campaign. And it has tons of money (thanks to loop hole in election laws) from a few fringe liberals (Soros to name one) which means it can throw out opposition ads with wild abandon. This […]

I just wanted to add some more thoughts to the post I started below on how the GOP will still lose Congress no matter how bad the Democrats perform because of their over-the-top stance (from a vocal minority) on immigration.

The writing is on the wall. The Democrat led Congress has irritated all but 11% of the electorate now that they are plowing new depths of regard public opinion discontent. This is less than half the support of the supposedly disliked President Bush. But the GOP, by letting hotter heads control the topic, have not […]

This is so dumb I could not pass it up: U.S. Kills Terror Boss: Who Cares? My question for the general was, “Does it matter?” Despite all the terrorist and insurgent leaders we’ve killed in four years, the insurgency only appears to be growing. Killing Saddam’s sons didn’t make a difference. Killing Abu Musab al-Zarqawi […]

One of al-Qaeda’s top leaders in Iraq, who fought in Afghanistan and had ties to al-Qaeda’s number 2 zawahiri, was killed in Iraq last month: Intelligence reports indicate al-Masri was directed by senior al-Qaeda in Iraq leaders to plan attacks that would cultivate sectarian strife. The former al-Qaeda in Iraq military emir of Baghdad, now […]

Geez, Congress has just about pissed off the entire country in less than a year. There must be multiple records in here somewhere. If I were the Dems I would not be cocky but try to go back the “humble servant of the people” thing. With only 11% support (less than half of Bush’s support […]
