Five Years, Four Thousand Deaths

Monday, March 24th, 2008

Happy Fifth Anniversary of the Iraq War (sarcasm intended), America!  Perhaps we should place 4,000 red, white and blue candles on the cake.  Once again, Bush promised victory in Iraq, but he once claimed that we have already achieved victory there.
We may have just hit the five-year mark, but outside of Neoconland, no one is […]

Another Two Bite the Dust

Thursday, December 27th, 2007

Has Time Magazine peered into a crystal ball and concluded that neoconservatism is gasping for its final breath? They are eliminating two of their star pro-war writers; here’s the scoop:
Two conservative Time magazine columnists are on their way out the door: Neither William Kristol nor longtime contributor Charles Krauthammer will be on contract with the […]

Misplaced Media Priorities

Thursday, December 6th, 2007

In case the nitwits in the mainsteam media have forgotten, there is still an ongoing war in Iraq:
As of Wednesday, at least 3,886 members of the U.S. military have died since the beginning of the Iraq war in March 2003, according to an Associated Press count. The figure includes eight military civilians. At least 3,163 […]

On Rudy’s Diss of Ron Paul: He Just Doesn’t Get It

Monday, December 3rd, 2007

I’ve been “backstage” at enough political debates to have noticed a tactic favored by certain personality types: Trying to get your opponent’s goat in order to see that he loses his cool and makes some stupid mistake.  In a campaign e-mail, Ron Paul just noted an encounter of this general sort:
Then, after the debate, Rudy […]

Compassionate Conservatism for the Holidays

Friday, November 30th, 2007

The President of the United States would like your support in providing Christmas presents for little children.  You see, American children get their lead toys from China, but Iraqi children have to get their lead from the United States.  President Bush would prefer that more Iraqi children receive 5.56MM pieces of lead, so he’s asking […]

Ron Paul Campaign: The Latest Neo-Nitwit Attack

Tuesday, November 27th, 2007

 Source: Some stupid state senator from West Virginia
First, let me say this, and there are a few avid readers of this blog who I respect, but simply don’t support who they support. So, because of them, I have really held off writing anything negative about Texas Congressman Ron Paul because, well, he and his candidacy […]

Wordsmithing Common Sense

Monday, November 26th, 2007

“Talking about cutting back on the Patriot Act, talking about cutting back on electronic surveillance, talking about cutting back on aggressive questioning — not torture, but aggressive questioning — wanting to remove our soldiers from Iraq in a way that would require them to give the enemy a time table of their retreat,” Giuliani said. […]

Sunday, November 18th, 2007

I’m sure Eric Donderooooooooooooo won’t like this article over at LRC.  Here’s a clip of Anthony Gregory’s column:
The pro-war libertarians – and yes, I know the term is an oxymoron […]

If I shoot and kill you in a premeditated and non-defensive action, is it called murder?

Friday, November 9th, 2007

Bill Clinton did not have sex with anyone but Hillary (that’s disgusting enough to envision). Oral sex doesn’t count as sex.
The Germans weren’t engaged in genocide during the Holocaust. It was just racial purification.
And the U.S. government doesn’t torture. They merely perform enhanced interrogation techniques.
James Bovard is predicting that the use of […]

Today’s Blog Posting Brought to You by the Letter “I”

Thursday, October 25th, 2007

In case anyone wonders why they booted Ron Paul supporters from Redstate, it’s because folks at the pro-Bush policy site aren’t bright enough to distinguish between commonly spoken words in the English language which begin with the same letter. For example:
Isolationists are attracted to the Libertarian Party and Him-who-must-not-be-named in the Republican primary. Of […]
