Hillary Clinton is a perfect example of a politician whose foreign policy positions are driven solely by politics. Initially, Hillary voted for the war and, quite notably, had this to say about the danger that Saddam Hussein posed, “In the four years since the inspectors left, intelligence reports show that Saddam Hussein has worked to […]

Over the years we have posted many studies that show that jihadists are generally better educated and wealthier than their peers. I expect that at least some of them have come to the attention of officials in Washington, but the assumption among law enforcement and government officials that money will solve the problem of terrorism […]

Yesterday, the commenters at RWN and Small Dead Animals came up with two different lists of Pro-Iranian Movies We Could Have Made Instead Of “300” That went over so well that I thought it merited a part 3. So, without further ado, here are, “10 More Pro-Iranian Movies We Could Have Made Instead Of “300” […]

I was listening to Rush and he mentioned that a group has actually created sympathy ecards to send to women who have abortions, “A nonprofit organization has unveiled a series of electronic greeting cards that concerned friends and relatives can send to a woman after she chooses to have an abortion. Like Exhale’s confidential talk […]

“(The movie, “The Great Global Warming Swindle”) starts off covering indisputable facts. There was a Medieval Warm Period that was warmer than today — that led to incredible wealth in Europe when the bulk of the continent’s great cathedrals were built and when Britain had thriving vineyards. Then came the Little Ice Age that started […]

Camille Paglia had this about Ann Coulter, “John Edwards got publicity for the wrong reason two weeks ago when Ann Coulter bizarrely called him a “f*ggot” at the Conservative Political Action Conference…. [S]atirists who play on gender themes need some whiff of self-knowledge, or they look ridiculous. Is Coulter truly oblivious to her gender weirdness? […]

Apparently, the crazies that run Iran weren’t too happy with the movie “300.” In fact, Javad Shamqadri, an art advisor to Iran’s Islamo-Fascist, holocaust denying President, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, said that 300 was “part of a comprehensive U.S. psychological war aimed at Iranian culture.” Yeah, we should be so organized. Anyway, in the “spirit of cultural […]

Over at Bloomberg, they’ve put out an article that declares, “Attorney General Alberto Gonzales found few defenders in Congress among fellow Republicans as Democrats escalated demands for his resignation over the firing of eight U.S. attorneys.” So, if this scandal is manufactured out of nothing, and it is, then why aren’t more Republicans sticking up […]

Dear Mexico, How’s it going? I hope you are fine. We are very sorry that you are upset over our recent border incursion. It turns out that there was like this really big fire and we needed to put it out and stuff. Sure, we crossed your border illegally, but we pretty much did what […]

This silly little, manufactured kerfluffle over these fired US Attorneys has much more to do with the political ineptness of the White House than anything they did wrong. Here’s the reality: the 93 US Attorneys serve at the pleasure of the President. He can hire and fire them as he wishes. In fact, Clinton fired […]

Another day, another left-wing professor getting away with making an outrageous remark: “A professor at North Idaho College says it’s all right to talk about executing “anyone who’s ever voted Republican” as long as it’s said with a smile. The belief was expressed by instructor Jessica Bryan when her comments were challenged by a student, […]

“I can’t handle living in the United States of America when I know the last two elections were rigged, and that we were denied our right to vote, where we live in a country where 32 percent of the people vote and even those people’s votes don’t count, and the people who should really have […]

But Benny J. Peiser, a social anthropologist in Britain who runs the Cambridge-Conference Network, or CCNet, an Internet newsletter on climate change and natural disasters, challenged the claim of scientific consensus with examples of pointed disagreement. “Hardly a week goes by,” Dr. Peiser said, “without a new research paper that questions part or even some […]

Feeling a little older today? Blame Bush. He secretly moved your clock ahead as you lay sleeping last Sunday, effectively shortening your day by one hour and pushing you sixty minutes closer to the grave. Sure, one hour doesn’t seem like much – until you consider that a child born today (should his mother foolishly […]

First of all, don’t giggle as you read this line, “A North Pole expedition meant to bring attention to global warming was called off after one of the explorers got frostbite.” Why shouldn’t you giggle? Because it gets much, much better, “Bancroft, 51, became the first woman to cross the North Pole on a 1986 […]

Over at the Prospect, they say, “We asked 100 writers and thinkers to answer the following question: Left and right defined the 20th century. What’s next? The pessimism of their responses is striking: almost nobody expects the world to get better in the coming decades, and many think it will get worse.” First of all, […]

I’m avoiding commenting on the 2008 Republican presidential contenders since I am consulting for the Duncan Hunter campaign through TCV Media, but I don’t see any reason why I can’t talk about the non-contenders — especially when we’re discussing a non-contender who has such a huge, bloated, planet sized ego that he felt compelled to […]

10) None of the soldiers are portrayed as mentally unstable, religious zealots, cowards, traitors, or immoral. 9) The good guys take no prisoners. 8) All the good guys are Westerners and all the bad guys, except for a few who are bribed, are not. 7) The only gay characters in the movie, lesbians, are on […]

You know a lot of liberals like to claim that the whole mainstream media on TV, ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, MSNBC, and Fox are all slanted to the right. But, which network did the netroots freak out about? Fox. Which network did the Nevada Democrats cancel a debate with? Fox. What does that tell you? […]

If you need evidence that the netroots crowd is still hellbent on impeaching Bush for — well, anything that they think they can make stick — then this poll at the Daily Kos will do. 89% say impeach. 7% say don’t impeach. 3% have no opinion. It will be interesting to see if this will […]
