Remember Sam Fox? He is the guy whom the Democrats were arrogantly blocking in the Senate because he dared to contribute money to the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth. Well, Bush must have a little spine left after all because he gave Fox and two of his other appointees, that the Dems were blocking, recess […]

Newsday wrote a sob story about the children of illegal immigrants who are forced to either go back home with their parents or stay with friends/relatives/foster parents when their parents are deported. “Twelve-year-old Adrian Ramirez huddled with his two sisters on a bench and tried to find the words to describe his feelings about their […]

Over at the Wapo’s Sleuth Blog, they say Edwards has provided a, “Lesson in E-Campaigning 101,” by sending fund raising emails out to the people who sent sympathy notes to Elizabeth because of her cancer. I’d say a “lesson in shamelessness” would be a better title, “When you visit the John Edwards for President Web […]

(I’m consulting for Duncan Hunter through TCV Media and because of that, I try not to discuss the 2008 Republican Presidential contenders on the blog. However, it’s a slow news day and it felt like a good time to do some power rankings.) Top Tier 1) Rudy Giuliani: If the top tier stays Rudy, Romney, […]

The terrorist-in-chief in Iran has announced that he is going to “pardon” the British hostages. The two questions I have at this point are, #1) What were the Iranians given, behind-the-scenes, for this “generous” gesture? #2) Will other nations start using these same tactics since the Iranians seem to have paid no penalty whatsoever for […]

There are few things that Bush and the Republicans in the Senate could do that would more strongly telegraph their opposition to enforcing our immigration laws than cutting back on the size of the wall being built at the border. So, what are they planning to do? You guessed it… “Six months after approving a […]

“Now he’s the commander in chief, and we’re not going to do anything to limit funding or cut off funds, even though there are some on the outside who suggest that,” House leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) has said. “I think we want to make sure that the troops have everything that they need.” — Harry […]

Bush was excoriated for not having more European support when we went into Iraq. Sure, he had Britain, Italy, Spain, Poland, etc., etc., on board, but no France, Germany, and Belgium. It was pointed out by many people, myself included, that European military help, aside from that of Britain, wasn’t worth very much anyway. Every […]

The left always blames America first and the Iranian hostage crisis is no different. From ultra-lib Patrick Cockburn in the Independent, “The botched US raid that led to the hostage crisis A failed American attempt to abduct two senior Iranian security officers on an official visit to northern Iraq was the starting pistol for a […]

Let’s see. In the first quarter of 1999, George Bush raised $7.6 million, Phil Gramm raised $8.7 million, and Al Gore raised $8.9 million. The Gore and Gramm numbers were all-time first quarter records until the first quarter of 2007 in which, Hillary Clinton raised $26 million Barrack Obama raised an estimated $22 million Mitt […]

“When members of Congress speak not of victory but of time limits, deadlines, or other arbitrary measures, they’re telling the enemy to simply watch the clock and wait us out. It’s time the self-appointed strategists on Capitol Hill understood a very simple concept: You cannot win a war if you tell the enemy you’re going […]

I’ve decided to start learning how to do a bit of video editing. This is my first effort, a conversion of the famous “Daisy” ad into an anti-Democrat attack ad for 2008. Enjoy!

The general theory here seems to be that it’s better that children be kept ignorant than risk offending someone, “Schools are dropping controversial subjects from history lessons – such as the Holocaust and the Crusades – because teachers do not want to cause offence, Government research has found. The way the slave trade is taught […]

After Watergate and the pardon of Nixon, the GOP was, as you’d expect, hit with crushing losses during the 1974 elections. We lost 48 seats in the House and five seats in the Senate. Back then, like today, Republicans were struggling to decide which way to go. Well, Ronald Reagan answered that question at CPAC […]
