I'm always curious to learn how people define being "human" in terms of the abortion debate. For me, it's pretty logical and pretty simple. I believe life starts at conception. At that point, you have a unique individual with a unique set of DNA. In today's Washington Post, columnist Michael Kinsley makes a disturbingly narrow […]
I addressed the pep rally earlier this week, in today's Wall Street Journal Peggy Noonan does me about 25 million times better. Check it out.
Fox News was just running what the methods of execution are for the various states where the sniper suspects killed people. Maryland, where most of the victims were from, offers only lethal injection as an option. Virginia offers lethal injection or electrocution. Alabama offers only electrocution. Washington state offers lethal injection or hanging. I've got […]
National Review's Deroy Murdock gives you the rest of the story when it comes to which major political party profits from the labor of American workers. New York Times columnist Paul Krugman and his ilk on the left crow about Halliburton, Harken Energy and shady dealings by prominent Republicans that have resulted in financial loss […]
That's what Yasser Arafat's Al-Aqsa Martyrs Brigade discovered earlier this week. Apparently some intern in the Brigades' office was working hard, trying to make a good impression on his bosses.

I'm not sure if it aired on CSPAN, but I don't have four hours to spend watching a "memorial." Seriously, has anyone ever […]
I've spent much of the day condo-hunting, because houses are much too expensive for anyone who works at a newspaper. Got my eye on a couple, but my first choice is a fixer-upper. In the meantime, the Indepundit (a fellow San Diegan) has come out with his first non-endorsement endorsement for the Nov. 5 election.
That's the line from the Minnesota Democratic Party in its latest lawsuit. Democrats are preparing to raise Florida-style objections to the conduct of the election. For example, Democrats claim the ballot is confusing because it asks voters to write an "X" by the name of the candidate for whom they want to vote. The regular […]

U.S. diplomat Laurence Foley was gunned down yesterday as he walked to his car outside his home in Amman, Jordan. Authorities have said that they are looking for a lone white male driving a white van with a ladder on top.
