Lewis Libby has been convicted on four of five counts against him and faces up to 25 years in jail and a fine of $1 million. The jurors found Tim Russert to be a credible witness, despite the notes of his FBI interview being “lost” and him having claimed on the stand it would have […]

On Friday, Giuliani spoke at CPAC and gave a semi-campaign speech. He mentioned that Congress is elected to make decisions, not to commentate. We have commentators in the media, we don’t need more. He stated that the next president needs to get Congress back to making decisions. He did not follow that by saying that […]

The New York Daily News has an interesting article on movie casting as part of today’s installment from Rush & Milloy. As someone who has a somewhat extensive DVD collection, I can appreciate the efforts a casting director puts into their work. Certainly, CSI does very well, largely due to the superb work that William […]

Over at Captain’s Quarters, there is a discussion of civility. On the previous thread is what appears to be his response to Ann Coulter’s comments. It’s a good post, but the comments at the second link are instructive as well. They are part of the reason that Republicans got spanked in the 2006 mid-terms. Conservatives […]

I think the biggest […]

Update: Looks like the news was slightly mis-reported. It seems the man arrested was the deputy leader – so could the leader be far behind? Still a good catch, not as good as reported below. end update More great news from Iraq, and another blow to the Democrats’ surrender monkey plan as al Qaeda’s successor […]

This is excellent news coming out of Iraq: Iraq’s prime minister confirms that US and Iraqi authorities are working together to arrest and prosecute prominent Iraqis suspected of links to armed extremist groups. Nouri al-Maliki tells The Associated Press that the coordination began at the start of this year. His comments came in response to […]

I don’t like pedophiles, and this is just one more reason why. In this case, it was a website of pedophiles gawking over the children and grandchildren of the various candidates for President. Family is one of those things that should be out of bounds in politics. I don’t care if it’s Mary Cheney and […]
