SOTU: Stay The Course Or Give Up

What a powerful speech! Bush knocked this one out of the park, and the Democrats made so many unforced errors it was pathetic. I will leave the detailed analysis to the seasoned bloggers (besides I have a movie date with my wife to finish Star Wars Episode II). But Bush just nailed some issues and […]

Iranian Bravado Backed Ny Nuke?

My biggest concern about the Iranian bravado has been it is a dumb game to play if they did not yet have a nuclear warhead of some kind. They saw how bluffing the US worked for Saddam. The Mullah’s may be mad – but they are not stupid. Now some are saying what I suspected […]

Washington Post Notices Left’s Civil War

I guess having to shutdown one of their blogs last week finally woke up the Washington Post to the fact the far left liberal base is on the war path – against the democrats.

Security Council — the United States, Britain, France, Russia and China — along with Germany, agreed Monday night to report Iran to the Security Council over its nuclear program. The UN has not shown much backbone to date. […]

Liberal Base Beside Itself

Failure is hard to face. And right now with the Alito confirmation all but over with the vote tomorrow, the liberal base is faced with the harsh reality. It was all for nothing.

9-11 and NSA, How To Lose A War

In an excellent opinion piece out today Debra Burlingame, widow of 9-11, illustrates why those against the NSA surveillance of terrorists are wrong – dead wrong: NBC News aired an “exclusive” story in 2004 that dramatically recounted how al-Hazmi and al-Mihdhar, the San Diego terrorists who would later hijack American Airlines flight 77 and fly […]

Dean is a Financial Nightmare

Published by under All General Discussions

For the Dems at least. In this previous post I highlighted the fact the reps were well ahead of the dems financially. It appears Dean can spend it quicker than he can get it – not to mention all the donors are probably deciding their is little to no hope for any return on their […]
