As many have said, to get a handle on immigration takes being serious about the fact we need temporary workers, being serious about the 12 million illegals here now, and being serious about enforcement and the border. If these are not all done well the problem with our illegal immigration problem will just fester. That […]

MacRanger notes Peggy Noonan wants a time out – clearly she wants to bide time. We should close the border, pause, absorb what we have, and set ourselves to “patriating” the newcomers who are here. Why the panicked call for a time out? Now the deal is to legalize the illegals if we close the […]

I had pointed out that the amnesty-hypochondriacs (they swear they are not immigration hypochondriacs – fair enough) were destroying the GOP by claiming all common ground with Bush (one of the best conservative Presidents we have had in this country) and other conservatives (Kyl, Graham, Martinez, etc) is now gone. I said that their scortched […]

I agree with Senator Joe Lieberman (who would get my vote if he ran for national office) that not only must we win in Iraq, there are signs we can and are on the path to that end. he officials I met in Baghdad said that 90% of suicide bombings in Iraq today are the […]

The Immigration Bill, which this country needs to fix many (not all) of the problems with our current immigration situation, is making a return visit to the Senate next week. Senate leaders announced plans Thursday night to revive the White House-backed measure as early as next week, although neither Majority Leader Harry Reid nor his […]

We see it throughout the region of the Middle East. The Islamo-Fascists are attempting to take power. They spent a lot of blood and energy on Iraq, but slowly the tide is turning against the Islamo-Fascists (despite the unending pessimism of the SurrenderMedia): The sectarian slaughter has dipped slightly in Baghdad, but is up dramatically […]

People who serve in our military do so at great sacrifice and risk. And they do the best they can under screwed up priorities and naive concepts that eminate from Congress like swamp gas. It is bad enough when the partisans are so poisoned that a man who did a fine job against a tough […]

I am spending the day as a proud father watching his son graduate from college, so if your posts get caught in the spam filters that is why they are stuck. The oldest daughter graduated from college a few weeks back. If I don’t respond to comments, that is why. So while I am gone […]

Harry Reid is stuck out on this limb he and the dems made. His base needs to see a US loss in Iraq, but they failed to make it happen when they tried to surrender while supporting the troops (the irony of this silly position was not lost on the left or the right). The […]

The Immigration Debate (well, it is hard to call the nonsense surrounding this issue a debate) has taken its tolll on the Republicans – as I predicted. The far right is in full snit as they blame Bush for basically not agreeing with them. They are abondoning him – but apparently they only make up […]
