Democrats insist that they want to fight al Qaeda terrorists ... in Afghanistan. Any suggestion that there might possibly be any al Qaeda types in Iraq is met with scorn and derision. Today's case in point is courtesy the guys over at Powerline who have video of Rep. Jack Murtha accusing Gen. David Petraeus of […]
The San Diego Union-Tribune won a Pulitzer Prize in 2006 for exposing Rep. Randy "Duke" Cunningham as a thoroughly corrupt politician. In fact, if there's a sure way of winning a Pulitzer, it's discovering and documenting corruption by a national politician. It appears as though a Pulitzer Prize may be waiting for any news organization […]
Washington State's "Baghdad Jim" McDermott is going to be paying Rep. John Boehner more than $700,000 after a federal appeals court struck down his First Amendment claim that he had the right to distribute to the media an illegally made recording of a cell phone call. Democrats have once again proved that they are against […]
Correction appended. Today is the communists' favorite holiday, so it should come as no surprise that pinkos make their way out of the woodwork today. For the second year in a row, supporters of open-borders are rallying across the United States. It would seem like these rallies would be a target-rich environment for Immigration and […]
Kirsten Powers, a Democrat strategist, proves on today's Wall Street Journal that she's a moderate, sensible Democrat, [link for subscribers only] but it's unlikely that her party will listen. The Democratic Party has made a huge show of reaching out to religious voters, for whom abortion is a central issue. Overtures have been made to […]
Last week, Sen. Majority Leader Harry Reid said the war is lost. It's taken me a while to cool down from wanting to kick a certain senior senator from the state of Nevada where the sun don't shine. While Reid's white-flag-of-surrender moment wasn't altogether unsurprising, what that statement prompted him to do a few days […]
John Murtha, scholar, on CNN's "American Morning": ROBERTS: You heard what President Bush said, that Congress shouldn't be micromanaging the war. What do you say? MURTHA: That's our job, John. U.S. Constitution, Article II, Section 2: The President shall be Commander in Chief of the Army and Navy of the United States... Provide the funding, […]
The left today is a sewer. Visit any of the popular left-wing blogs, listen to their talk-radio hosts, listen to their politicians. Look and listen at those who walk in the so-called anti-war marches. If you think what actor Alec Baldwin said to his own daughter last week was bad, then recall that he threatened […]
As usual, the truth is probably somewhere between what busybodies Laurie David and Sheryl Crow say and this account from an anonymous eyewitness who appears a bit more friendly to Karl Rove. Having said that, if Sheryl Crow had poked me in the chest, the unemployment rate would've gone down because she'd have to hire […]
Because when I read this, all I can think of is "DeGaulle of that woman." See-dubya responds wittily to a Hillary Clinton quote: Hillary Clinton: “When I walk into the Oval office in January 2009 I’m afraid I’m gonna lift up the rug and see so much stuff under there…” MEMO TO HILLARY: When your […]
