It appears that some "peace-activist" idiots in Pittsburgh, Pa., really want the tar beat out of them. On Wednesday, March 19, POG will be holding a torch-lit march to a modern day castle of abominations—our local military recruiting station. If the station remains open, we intend to evict it and everything inside of it, occupy […]
That headline may be a little premature because, as of tonight, Gov. Eliot Spitzer is still the governor of New York. Monday afternoon every news channel was running the news that Spitzer was "Client 9" of a high-priced, high-class prostitution ring. Spitzer, in his arrogance, appears to have actually paid the prostitute to cross state […]
Most of the results are in for what the media had dubbed "Super Tuesday II" -- and there are few surprises. Sen. John McCain has clinched the GOP nomination. I'll hold my nose and vote for him. Mike Huckabee was hoping for a little bump to put his delegate total above that of Mitt Romney, […]
This one is a serious jaw-dropper. On a just-finished conference call in which retired military leaders endorsed Hillary Clinton to be commander in chief, retired General Wesley Clark said John McCain's military experience is not the right kind of experience to command the nation's armed forces: In the national security business, the question is, do […]
If you didn't watch CBS' "60 Minutes" Sunday night, then you might have missed the bombshell report by Scott Pelley making the case that Rep. Randy "Duke" Cunningham was framed and Clinton hatchet man Sidney Blumenthal was involved in the frame up. Of course, that's all wrong. CBS of "Rathergate" fame doesn't air thinly sourced […]
Sen. Barack Obama has a problem. Like his Democratic rival, Sen. Hillary Clinton, Obama has promised to pull out of the North American Free Trade Agreement after six months if it isn't renegotiated to his liking should he be elected president. The problem is that Obama has had his senior economic adviser, Austin Goolsbee, telling […]
Someone, please tell Speaker Nancy Pelosi to stop smashing her forehead against the wall separating the legislative branch from the executive. Pelosi said the two were unresponsive to Congress' inquiry, while the White House argues that contempt laws don't apply to the president or any of his staffers who invoke executive privilege. Mukasey, a Bush […]
Sen. Barack Obama had this interesting anecdote in last night's debate: OBAMA: You know, I've heard from an Army captain who was the head of a rifle platoon — supposed to have 39 men in a rifle platoon. Ended up being sent to Afghanistan with 24 because 15 of those soldiers had been sent to […]
I typically work a swing shift (which is heck on the social life), but I've also pulled all-nighters working at various newspapers -- most of them when I was special sections editor/reporter/systems editor at The Daily World in Aberdeen, Wash. I actually pulled more all-nighters at that job than I did in college. Having said […]
Starting in the early morning hours of Sunday, terrorists worldwide could take solace in the fact that U.S. intelligence agencies would have to jump through all sorts of hoops to listen in on their private phone conversations. How did this happen? First a FISA court ruled bizarrely, that terrorists have a right to privacy. Well, […]
