I mentioned last week that the outrageously close Washington gubernatorial race reinforced the need to ensure that our elections are not stolen through fraud. The Wall Street Journal's John Fund weighed in today with similar sentiments -- and that it may already be too late. That set off a legal fracas over the 929 people […]
Eleanor Clift supports former Vermont Gov. Howard Dean's bid to head the Democratic National Committee. Clift claims that Dean is really a "centrist" a la former President Bill Clinton. If Dean is a centrist, then the Democrat Party is further left than even I thought it was. (OK, that's a lie -- I always knew […]
This quote from yesterday's dedication ceremony for the Clinton Presidential Library just begs for a snarky comment. The library "is like my husband: it's open, it's expansive, it's welcoming, it's filled with life." – Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton Please feel free to make use of the comments.
So Saddam Hussein pocketed $21.3 billion from the U.N.'s oil-for-palaces program -- nearly twice previous estimates. So what does Democrat Sen.

Despite Drop in Crime, an Increase in Inmates By FOX BUTTERFIELD The number of inmates in state and federal prisons rose 2.1 […]
I'm finally getting around to watching my news shows and was just struck, once again, by Margaret Carlson's incredible arrogance. First, she is still peddling that nonsense that George W. Bush wasn't elected in 2000. Second, as she tried to get into the discussion she told National Review's Kate O'Beirne to stop gloating because it's […]
The New York Times op-ed page editor has written that pieces they consider for the page represent a variety of views. Well, today's paper reveals that to be the farce that it is. In addition to a couple of whiny columns by Paul Krugman and Bob Herbert, we have two other pieces. One entitled "Why […]
You can count the number of conservatives in a newsroom of several hundred people on your fingers -- with no need to borrow those of a friend. Last night I was asking an editor about the length of a story she was editing and she was really excited to show me something that one of […]
