Victor Davis Hanson takes on Sunday's New York Times editorial advocating retreat from Iraq. I wanted to highlight the absolute moral depravity that appears to be the standard at the Times with this paragraph: Americans must be clear that Iraq, and the region around it, could be even bloodier and more chaotic after Americans leave. […]
A Florida farmer is paying more than $200,000 because he was paying his American citizen workers less than his foreign-born employees. Kenneth Hyatt, today's Idiot of the Day.
The past two days have returned a couple of conflicting takes on what happened Nov. 19, 2005, in the Iraqi village of Haditha. Lt. Col. Paul Ware, in a report released Tuesday, urged that charges of murder against Lance Cpl. Justin Sharratt be dropped. In a written report, Lt. Col. Paul Ware said the evidence […]
You can find some photos of that famous Cuban health care system that Michael Moore won't show you here. Don't be fooled by the lies of the left.
In a piece that offers some advice to the New York Times on their Iraq reporting, the Boston Herald's Jules Crittenden makes some observations about reporters and the staffing of some major metropolitan papers. No less than four reporters worked on this article. That looks like about one phone call each. Most of what I’ve […]
The Politico has an inside baseball story about ethics/earmark reform in the Senate. Those of you who follow Porkbusters and those issues will find the story interesting because it appears that the Democrat-led Senate is trying to outsource its rules to the House.

It's the first of the films to be rated PG-13, largely due to a massive reduction in the number of four-letter words. Yes, there's the infamous Yipee Ki Yay line, but it isn't followed by […]
Christianity Today has an interview with artist Sinead O'Connor. I found the following two responses "interesting." Are you a Christian? O'Connor: Yeah, by birth and by culture. This is what we call a "no." But O'Connor apparently has watched some of those televangelists. What does Jesus mean to you? O'Connor: I've had a lot of […]
I made the mistake of reading this New York Times editorial on the nomination of Dr. James Holsinger to be surgeon general. I just want to make two points. First, the title: "A Nominee's Abnormal Views." The "abnormal" apparently applies to the belief that male-female sexual relationships -- you know, the kind that can actually […]
Set aside the negative connotation of the word "vigilante" for a moment. The Minutemen -- a group whose goals I generally support -- get a lot of flak in the mainstream media for their border watchdog efforts. Compare the coverage of the Minutemen to the coverage of this organization and see if you can see […]
