An example of my (day job) work

Back at the beginning of March I made a graphic for the San Diego Union-Tribune's Sunday Insight section. Well, it turns out that it won the paper's in-house award for best graphic for the month. (I don't know what they were thinking.) Anyway, if you're interested, you can take a look at it here. Warning. […]

A Marine Comes Home

The Wall Street Journal's Dorothy Rabinowitz has an excellent column today on why Michael Moore, Janeane Garafalo, Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon just don't matter. On April 14 in Vermont, for example, mourners gathered for the funeral of 21-year-old Marine Cpl. Mark Evnin, killed in action on the drive to Baghdad. A thousand people attended […]

Dumb letter-writer of the day

Pat Bender of Rancho Bernardo, Calif., wins todays prize with this howler in the San Diego Union-Tribune. I refuse to be silenced when I oppose the war in Iraq or criticize our president.

The only […]

Breaking the judicial stalemate

I heard Rush LImbaugh mentioning this subject as I drove into work, and then read the National Review Online article he was apparently referring to. Basically the idea to get the recalcitrant Democrats to stop their unprecedented filibuster of Bush judicial nominees is to use the recess appointment power -- but not in the way […]

On Jimmy Carter

Some people have asked me to remove former President Carter from the trading block for imprisoned Cuban dissidents. While I will concur that his work with Habitat for Humanity is good and noble work, his dealings on the international stage, show, at best willful ignorance when it comes to some of the people he's embraced.

Like oil and water...

New York Times columnist Paul Krugman and politics don't mix. Paul Krugman, apparently isolated from news reports, is still fighting to prevent the United States from going to war against Iraq. Krugman refers to an ABC News report where a "Bush administration official" (not even "senior"?), apparently responding to a question about whether the administration […]

Bill Richardson & North Korea

Just caught a couple of minute of Greta Van Susteran's program while awaiting the beginning of the Ducks vs. Stars hockey game, and New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson approved of the diplomatic path the Bush administration was now taking. In the past, according to Richardson, the labeling of North Korea part of the Axis of […]

Scott Ritter stays bought

Blogger Bryon Scott over at Slings and Arrows analyzes former U.N. weapons inspector Scott Ritter's defense of fellow Iraqi-bought public figure George Galloway. No one takes Ritter seriously anymore, and for good reason, as Scott points out.
