That is, unless you're a New York Times columnist who apparently awakened from a long sleep during the Clinton administration. Nicholas Kristof, fresh off the turnip truck, suggests that the Bush administration's warning to Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein that any use of weapons of mass destruction (biological, chemical or even nuclear), would open him up […]
Levin made an interesting claim on Fox News Sunday -- he told Brit Hume that then head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Colin Powell had privately urged Levin and other senators to oppose the Gulf War resolution and give inspections more time to work. (I had an earlier post on Levin's performance here.) Well, […]
The New York Times' Paul Krugman tries his hand at foreign policy analysis and demonstrates that his cynicism, condescension and arrogance are still finely-tuned to find fault with anything relating to the Bush administration. Some people have commented that I have this unreasoning hatred of Krugman, and that my "hostility goes over the top." The […]
The Chinese government has sentenced a U.S.-based dissident to life in prison after it kidnapped him from neighboring Vietnam.
Sen. Carl Levin was on Fox News Sunday earlier today, and I'm watching the recording of it. Let me say that I think Sen. Levin is a very limber man.

MEMRI's report has identified the main characteristics of Saudi Arabia's […]
A good friend of mine who is an Air Force F-16 pilot stationed in Korea sent me this, and it's a good set of talking points on so much of the anti-American blather that you hear from some of the less-enlightened people on the left. The following is reportedly (I couldn't verify it online, but […]
A Washington Post report on the Washington Press Club Foundation dinner quoted the following remarks from Sen. John McCain. McCain, Republican maverick, former POW and Vietnam War hero, cracked in his speech that if "Washington is a Hollywood for ugly people," then, considering the remarks coming out of Tinseltown about Iraq, "Hollywood is a Washington […]
Matt Evans over at The Buck Stops Here has been digging around in the People For the American Way's Web site and came across this link. What it allows you to do is send a fax to certain senators -- at PFAW's expense. The text is a form letter urging a filibuster of Republican judicial […]
A friend e-mailed me this photo earlier today. Democrats have been complaining that funding for a war in Iraq was not in President Bush's proposed budget. This could be the reason why: Sponsorships!
