The New York Times' twin dimwits, Nicholas Kristof and Paul Krugman are back, and they're nuttier than ever. Let's start first with Krugman, whom I mistakenly suggested last week may have been designated an unlawful combatant and shipped off to Gitmo -- I was apparently incorrect. Krugman's vacation hasn't mellowed him, but after comparing his […]
Clifford D. May over at National Review Online offers some background on one person that the New York Times and other national media outlets are touting as a nonpartisan, career foreign diplomat whose criticisms against the Bush administration should be taken seriously. Joseph C. Wilson, in a Times op-ed last week alleged that: "I have […]
New York Times columnist Nicholas Kristof, who previously served as an associate managing editor at the Times and once won a Pulitzer Prize, shows how journalism is done at the paper of record. Since I've been accusing the Bush administration of cooking the intelligence on Iraq, I should confess my intentions. Countless Iraqis warned me […]
It was reported yesterday that an Iraqi scientist turned over to U.S. forces plans and parts for a gas centrifuge -- used for enriching uranium to make an atomic bomb. What is known now by the CIA and other U.S. government officials ... is that the Iraqis, No. 1, were way ahead in developing this […]
The Associated Press is reporting a story with the headline: "Six British MPs Killed in Southern Iraq." The problem? The MPs they're referring to are military police. When you're talking about the Brits, MP usually means "Members of Parliament."
President George W. Bush and his neoconservative handlers have been joined in their plot to justify the war against Iraq from an unlikely source -- Iran.

For those of you unfamiliar with it, (you're lucky) Indymedia is a collection of Web sites from the lunatic left which are rabidly anti-American, anti-Semitic and anti-intelligence. How is the Old Gray Lady imitating Indymedia? Well, it's publishing this claptrap by columnist Paul Krugman. Krugman, curiously, chooses to take the most solid evidence that has […]
The whining and cries of despair have been growing ever louder over the past few weeks as coalition forces in Iraq have searched, in vain, for biological, chemical or nuclear weapons. What the search has turned up is two trailers that are nearly identical to those described by Secretary of State Colin Powell to the […]
One of the biggest problems newspapers have today is their use of anonymous sources. The latest misuse of what was once a method of last resort to get a story out was demonstrated by The New York TImes' Jayson Blair. Blair's (in)famous sniper story alleged that the feds had stopped the questioning of John Lee […]
The latest edition of National Review contains an article by Jim Lacey, a Time magazine correspondent who was embedded with the 101st Airborne Division during the Iraq II. Lacey recounts several anecdotes about the men who fought -- and won -- the war. One of them I found so humorous, that I couldn't stop laughing. […]
