Austin Bay has a follow-up on the New York Times treachery describing the Times and its sources as the "Axis of Abuse." I agree with much of Bay's analysis, but this part shows just a fundamental misunderstanding of how the news business works. Bush Derangement Syndrome doesn’t explain the Wall St Journal– just “me too” […]

One of the editors at the Union-Tribune once mentioned that his daughter worked as an "activist." He paid to send her to UC Berkeley, so it shouldn't come as a big surprise. I would've made some crack about him spending all that money to give the kid a college education only to have it wasted […]

Three idiots vandalized a nuclear missile launch site in North Dakota last week. The headline says they sabotaged it -- wrong. Using a sledgehammer and household hammers, all they would accomplish in 200 years is breaking the hammers. Rest assured, there would have been little problem launching that missile before, during and after the anti-war […]

Friday's disclosure by several newspapers, led by The New York Times, but including both The Wall Street Journal and the Los Angeles Times, of a classified program that has been highly successful in capturing terrorists worldwide isn't dying down in the blogosphere. Los Angeles Times subscribers Patrick Frey and Mark Danzinger have canceled their subscriptions […]

The New York Times letters to the editor commonly seems to be representative not only of the paper's editorial view, but also of its blue-state home base. Therefore, it really says something when the Times publishes six letters on its criminal outing of a legal anti-terrorist surveillance program and four of them take the paper […]

Or do you global-warming scaremongers want more of them to die! Global warming has made life harder for some wildlife species, but it may be providing a temporary boost to the health and population of Pacific gray whales. The number of gray whale calves migrating this spring along the West Coast increased by 8 percent […]

Both Republican and Democrat administrations in the decades before Sept. 11, 2001, have been criticized for viewing Islamic terrorism -- from the Iranian hostage-taking to the Marine barracks bombing in Lebanon to the USS Cole attack -- as a law enforcement issue. When government officials talked about "bringing people to justice," they meant trying them […]

We've got more global-warming scaremongering out today. It has been 2,000 years and possibly much longer since Earth has run such a fever. The National Academy of Sciences, reaching that conclusion in a broad review of scientific work requested by Congress, reported Thursday that the "recent warmth is unprecedented for at least the last 400 […]

You can find today's cartoon here. Maybe someone should offer the Alanta Journal-Constitution's cartoonist his choice of a week's stay in Gitmo, or five hours with al Qaeda in Iraq.

The announcement yesterday by Rep. Pete Hoekstra and Sen. Rick Santorum that U.S. investigators had discovered more than 500 shells containing chemical weapons -- mustard and sarin gasses -- was greeted with collective sigh by most of the media. FoxNews.com ran a rather extensive story, but The Washington Post had only a brief stuck inside […]
