If you’re taking a “courageous political stand” while obviously hoping that it benefits you politically, is it really a “courageous political stand?” Hillary is famous for doing this. She really goes out of her way to let everyone know that she’s “moving to the middle” on some issue and then everybody falls all over themselves […]

The Washington Post has a profile of General Petraeus and, if it is at all possible to turn around the situation in Iraq, he certainly sounds like he would be the man to do it. The Democrats and the media are making a fuss about Bush moving Petraeus in to replace General Casey saying that […]

Question: “Do you think we should send in more troops or keep it the troop levels the way they are?” — libliever Answer: I’m a little cool to the idea of adding more American troops because supposedly, most of the generals don’t support it, I think that the Iraqis could already be doing a lot […]

Nobody voted for them because […]

My The 20 Most Annoying People on the Right article was the 5th most read article at Human Events this week.

Question: “There have been a number of articles about the rise of the Euro as a world reserve currency. Of course, Iraq and Venezuela have said they will now expect payment in euros.

After noticing that I stuck him in the number 3 slot on, “The 21 Most Annoying People On The Right In 2006,” conspiracy theorist Jerome Corsi wrote a 775 word response at Human Events.

Question: “Who is the best comic book character of all time?” — D-Vega Answer: Spider-Man. Definitely. Know why? It’s because most comics spend a lot of time developing the “super” part of the character, but they do a poor job of building a compelling person behind the mask.

At 3 PM today, I was on a teleconference with Senate Minority leader Mitch McConnell. Here are my notes (not quotes) from the meeting: Opening statement: “Civility does not mean capitulation.” We’re not going to give in on raising taxes. That’s not up for negotiation.

Honorable Mention — raccoon: “If Spanish became the dominant language in the US, so what? Spanish has the advantage over English in that it’s spelled phonetically. I believe in 30 years, Spanish will be the de facto dominant language in many states. In some, it probably is already.” Honorable Mention — Sinti: “I’ve always felt […]

Initially, you had right-wingers, like myself, pointing out that Barrack Obama’s middle name is Hussein because it irritated liberals and because we wanted a little payback for all the George “Felix” Allen comments from the left during the election.
