The New York Times reports that the "60 Minutes" segment that was bumped two weeks ago to make way for the infamous forged documents piece is being held until after the election. The Times cites a Newsweek report that claims CBS producers now feel they cannot criticize President Bush prior to the election because of […]
Have I ever mentioned that I was standing on the moon in my spacesuit as I watched Neil Armstrong set foot on the moon back in 1969? Some of you will say that I wasn't yet born, but that's such a trifle. OK, I confess. I wasn't on the moon that day. Heck, I wasn't […]
National Review's Jim Geraghty has lots of good stuff over at the "Kerry Spot." First, Geraghty points out what Kerry should've had on his schedule today if he'd been running a half-way competent campaign.

For the past 2+ decades, when Islamist radicals have attacked the United States, the country has retreated -- during both Republican and Democrat administrations. From the Beirut […]
Buddhist Muslim terrorists killed at least 15 Christians exiting church Sunday morning throughout Iraq.
I'm often quick to criticize the media for shoddy reporting, lack of research and inaccurate headlines, so I'm pleased to point out examples of really good journalism -- this time by the Union-Tribune.
