  • Trust; our most valuable commodity

    Ya know what, I’m an old-fashioned kind of guy. In my world, although I surround myself with modern luxuries and gadgets, it’s still the 1950s. My friends are all people who say what they mean – no matter whose feelings are hurt. Our discussions revolve around truthfulness and realities, not around polite niceties. There’s no sugarcoating in my world – things are what they are. If someone lies to me once, I never trust them again. If we’re in the middle of a job and a coworker flakes off on me, they never work with me again. That’s the world I grew up in and the way I know things really work successfully.

    So why that paragraph? To illustrate a principle; that being trust. I’ve found that people who lie to someone else, will usually lie to me. People who behave badly, reflect on me when I associate with them.

    The reason I held Bill Clinton in such low esteem was because his family couldn’t count on him to be there – ultimately, the country couldn’t count on him to be there when he was getting gratification from a fat chick while his duties in the Rose Garden suffered.

    I used to like Newt Gingrich alot – before the 1994 Republican Revolution - but his personal exploits while he was Speaker soured me on him – eternally. I’ve crossed the room to avoid him.

    I met Dick Morris socially one time and we talked for a few minutes, but I heard hardly a word he said because that voice in my head kept repeating “Toe sucker! Toe sucker!”

    And now, there’s Larry “Wide Stance” Craig. What he was doing was pretty disgusting all by itself – but the fact that he did it while he was a US Senator makes me question his judgement. He was bold enough to make all of the gestures so common in men’s rooms across the country, that I have to believe that this wasn’t his first time. And he was fairly persistent.

    I don’t care what his politics are, how valuable his occupation of his Senate seat is to Republicans, or even how staunchly he supports every one of my issues – I don’t trust him because he has poor judgement.

    That’s what separates us from the Democrats – they’re willing to continue to put their trust in morally bankrupt, corrupt, murdering, racist, lying, raping thieves (I know my readers can name a Democrat to fit in each category I’ve listed so I won’t) – but we Republicans have principles.

    We need to send a message to all of the other Republicans who might have a wide stance that we don’t tolerate deviant behavior in our party (public bathroom sex is deviant, I don’t care who you’re doing it with). Craig has to go. Now. No discussion, no statements, no apologies. Just. Go.

    Wall Street Journal’s Washington Wire reports that Craig has lost his committee positions, but that’s not quite enough – get gone, Lar. Crotchety Old Bastard lists other dastardly deeds committed by Democrats for whom we’re still waiting letters to resign. But it’s only a partial list – trust me.

  • Democrats heading towards defeat

    In today’s Washington Post, Jonathan Weisman reports that Democrats just don’t see why their anti-Bush, anti-US, anti-National Security policies can’t get through the legislative process;

    A growing clamor among rank-and-file Democrats to halt President Bush’s most controversial tactics in the fight against terrorism has exposed deep divisions within the party, with many Democrats angry that they cannot defeat even a weakened president on issues that they believe should be front and center.

    The Democrats’ failure to rein in wiretapping without warrants, close the detention facility at Guantanamo Bay or restore basic legal rights such as habeas corpus for terrorism suspects has opened the party’s leaders to fierce criticism from some of their staunchest allies — on Capitol Hill, among liberal bloggers and at interest groups.

    Liberal bloggers and interest groups who are single-minded cattle and don’t have to get re-elected (the same goes for bloggers and interest groups on the Right, by the way) don’t understand why politicians, who do have to get reelected, don’t do their bidding?

    Why would a Congressman in, say, Dakota, listen to what a blogger with a $12/month blog in, say, Washington State? Because the blogger calls him names? Threatens to use the two readers the blogger has in the congessman’s Dakota district withold their vote? Well, it’s the same with even big blogs like Kos or Huffington – yeah, they have a huge readership, but ultimately, whom do they truly influence? There’s a large number of people/voters who don’t even know what a blog is, for pete’s sake.

    But the Democrat Party wants to formulate national security policy around the fickle desires of a few thousand nitwits who happen to have an extra $12 every month?

    The American Civil Liberties Union is running Internet advertisements depicting House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Senate Majority Leader Harry M. Reid (D-Nev.) as sheep.

    “Bush wanted more power to eavesdrop on ordinary Americans, and we just followed along. I guess that’s why they call us the Democratic leadersheep,” say the two farm animals in the ad, referring to Congress’s passage of legislation granting Bush a six-month extension and expansion of his warrantless wiretapping program.

    Rep. Rush D. Holt (D-N.J.), who leads a newly created House select intelligence oversight panel, lamented, “Democrats have been slow to recognize they are in the majority now and can go back to really examine the fundamentals of what we should be doing to protect democracy.”

    Protect Democracy? We have a responsibility to protect democracy from the actual enemies of Democracy who happen to be those 6th Century clowns who are hanging their men and stoning their women in public. Doesn’t that seem more important than worrying about if some NSA operator is listening to your kissy-face talk with your wife? Besides, no one is listening to your stupid phonesex calls – unless you’re having phone sex with Osama’s bodyguard. 

    Said Rep. James P. Moran Jr. (Va.): “I would’ve thought the administration would have been bereft of credibility by now, but they seem to be able to get what they want from this Congress.”

    So Moran woke up from his drunken stupor long enough to miscalculate the political climate, huh? Maybe, Moran, because you live in the echo chamber of Northern Virginia – inside the Beltway – you missed the fact that most Americans are still concerned about our security. Maybe the President isn’t “bereft of credibility by now” like you think. Maybe inside your echo chamber, but the rest of America knows that the attacks on us aren’t over and we don’t want to have to suffer through the weak-kneed responses to which we’ve grown accustomed with Democrats. The kind of responses which encourage more attacks.

    Despite all of President Bush’s shortcomings, one thing is for sure; there haven’t been any attacks on American soil in nearly six years. Not that there won’t be one, but there haven’t been any recently – and a big reason there hasn’t is because the bad guys know the response won’t be a cruise missile fired at an empty tent.

    Hmm, Bloodthirsty Liberal sees it my way, too in “Wiretapping or Toetapping“.

  • Castro; Clinton/Obama endorsement

    According to Reuters and CNN, Tio Fidel is endorsing a Clinton/Obama ticket for next year;

    Ailing Cuban leader Fidel Castro is tipping Democratic candidates Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama to team up and win the U.S. presidential election.Clinton leads Obama in the race to be the Democratic nominee for the November 2008 election, and Castro said they would make a winning combination.

    I guess this will do wonders for them – just like the Osama bin Laden endorsement for Kerry/Edwards in 2004. I’m sure the left is positively giddy about this high-profile endorsement from the docile, harmless Castro.

    It seems he had some other nice to things about our other worthless Democrat Presidents;

    Castro said former President Bill Clinton was “really kind” when he bumped into him and the two men shook hands at a U.N. summit meeting in 2000. He also praised Clinton for sending elite police to “rescue” shipwrecked Cuban boy Elian Gonzalez from the home of his Miami relatives in 2000 to end an international custody battle.

    […]

    He said his favorite U.S. president since 1959 was Jimmy Carter, another Democrat, because he was not an “accomplice” to efforts to violently overthrow the Cuban government.

    See, anyone willing to forget that Castro is a bloodthirsty tyrant with hundreds of prisoners of conscience rotting in jail cells is just fine and dandy.

    Reuters also mentioned that Eisenhower cut off diplomatic relations with Cuba – but they neglect to mention why, I will. The first year after Castro toppled the Batista regime, in 1959, he sent a small ragtag force of his guerilla army to invade the Panama Canal Zone. The small force of about 50 was rounded up as they landed on the beach at Colon, Panama by the Panamanian National Guard under the cover American air power and naval batteries with no casualties and sent packing back to Cuba.

    The intent was to incite the Panamanians to drive the evil gringos from the Canal Zone. So it’s really no wonder that the President cut off relations, since the Cubans tried to invade US territory, is it? And you’d think it’s be worth mentioning.

    Reuters also neglected to mention that during the Carter years, the Soviets stationed 10,000 Soviet combat troops in Cuba in the event that Carter decided to react to the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan. And Carter allowed Cuban troops to have their run of Africa (Rhodesia, Angola, South Africa, the Congo) and Central America (Columbia, Panama, El Salvador, Honduras, Guatemala, Nigaragua) inciting armed conflict and terrorizing the populations where ever they could. 

    Is it any wonder he’d endorse a corrupt Presidential candidate with an half-witted idiot for a running mate?

    Stix Blogs wonders why the world’s thugs support Democrats whereas I don’t have to ask.

    Ace of Spades says that fugitive felons also support Clinton. big endorsement week for her, I guess.

    George Moneo at Babalu Blog has a memory like mine.

  • More Clinton campaign stench

    I’d actually hoped they’d learned their lessons in the 1996 campaign when Janet Reno let the Clintons and Gore slide on the Buddist Temple monks contributions to the Clinton/Gore campaign – but according to the Wall Street Journal’s Brody Mullins, they haven’t;

    Six members of the Paw family, each listing the house at 41 Shelbourne Ave. as their residence, have donated a combined $45,000 to the Democratic senator from New York since 2005, for her presidential campaign, her Senate re-election last year and her political action committee. In all, the six Paws have donated a total of $200,000 to Democratic candidates since 2005, election records show.

    It isn’t obvious how the Paw family is able to afford such political largess. Records show they own a gift shop and live in a 1,280-square-foot house that they recently refinanced for $270,000. William Paw, the 64-year-old head of the household, is a mail carrier with the U.S. Postal Service who earns about $49,000 a year, according to a union representative. Alice Paw, also 64, is a homemaker. The couple’s grown children have jobs ranging from account manager at a software company to “attendance liaison” at a local public high school. One is listed on campaign records as an executive at a mutual fund.

    The Paws’ political donations closely track donations made by Norman Hsu, a wealthy New York businessman in the apparel industry who once listed the Paw home as his address, according to public records. Mr. Hsu is one of the top fund-raisers for Mrs. Clinton’s presidential campaign. He has hosted or co-hosted some of her most prominent money-raising events.

    People who answered the phone and the door at the Paws’ residence declined requests for comment last week. In an email last night, one of the Paws’ sons, Winkle, said he had sometimes been asked by Mr. Hsu to make contributions, and sometimes he himself had asked family members to donate. But he added: “I have been fortunate in my investments and all of my contributions have been my money.”

    So $200,000 in Democrat compaign contributions came from this tiny little house in the last two years – and at least 6 adults live in that tiny little house;

    Do we really want to hear for the next nine years about how terrible the vast right wing conspiracy is to the Clintons? Do we really want to hear how the Republican “juggernaut” forced the Clintons to turn to illegal activity in order to keep themselves in the White House – their own amusement park. Do we want more of the Riatis and the other asians who lined up outside the gates of the White House with sacks of cash to buy influence that eventually led to national security breaches?

    Personally, I’m tired of the BS. 

  • Economic boycott in Prince William County

    This debate over immigration has become so diluted with inuendos and lies, it’s hard to tell who is who anymore. But, here, I’ll try to explain it in terms anyone can understand.

    Residents of Prince William County, Virginia, a fairly upscale area in Northern Virginia, has decided that their county government went too far when they built, with tax payer dollars, a “day labor” center in Lorton so they forced the county to begin checking each “day worker” for their immigration status. It only makes sense – why should tax payers fund a gathering point that encourages law breakers to break the laws that protect taxpayers?

    Well, the supposedly “legal” Latin population of PWC are staging an economic boycott this week to demonstrate their economic power. Funny, but the Washington Post can only find legal residents to quote;

    Rivera, the hotel worker who attended the demonstration at Potomac Mills, said she was also a legal resident but was angry at the proposals aimed at driving out illegal immigrants. She said she decided to participate after hearing about the boycott through her church.

    “They don’t want our children in the schools. They don’t want people renting to immigrants. They want to ask for families’ ID cards in parks. This is wrong, and we do not accept it,” she said.

    If you’re a legal resident, chica, why are you worried? I have to show my passport and immigration papers when I travel in Central America – so does the rest of the world. I get stopped in malls, parks, the liquor stores and asked for my ID all of the time. If I threw a hissy everytime I was “profiled” (being a pale white guy with a noticable American accent in my Spanish) I’d probably get tossed in some dank cell on an island prison somewhere.

    Last month I wrote the same thing in reference to the Pollo Rico bust – legal residents were busted for laudering cash ($7 million, in fact), and the government found illegal immigrants working in the restuarants – so the “legal” Latins were worried they’d get scooped up in some huge raid and get mistakenly shipped back to their jungle villages. The big raid never happened – in fact the Montgomery County police chief came on television and promised he wouldn’t enforce the law. But I didn’t have to wait in line for a haircut that weekend.

    Well, of course, since many of the illegal immigrants (re: lawbreakers) are of Central American heritage, suddenly it’s a race issue and not a rule of law issue. The Washington Post writes:

    “They used us Hispanics to build this county, and now they are trying to kick us out. It’s not fair,” fumed Padilla, 28, a legal immigrant from El Salvador. On the window of his restaurant, La Laguna, was a large green poster that read, “We Are A Pro-Immigrant Business. Rescind the Prince William County Anti-Immigrant Resolution.”

    Who is “they”, chica?

    I’m gonna tell you the truth; up until recently, I was one of the Americans willing to look the other way on immigration. It really didn’t affect me or my family directly, so I actually didn’t have a firm opinion on the subject – other than the Border Patrol needed to enforce the laws on the border and stem the tide as best they could.

    But that all changed last year when I watched thousands of Latin immigrants marching through the streets of our cities, here in this country with their bellies full and designer clothes on their backs with Mexican flags and upside down American flags. Of course the next times they came out for their rallies, the Mexican flags had disappeared and the American flags were right-side up – but too late. The first action someone takes, right or wrong, is the action that person truly feels strongest about. So even though they love the American dollar, the American lifestyle and the American opportunity, they’d prefer that this country was different – to suit them. OK, fine, be like that. That’s how you converted me into an anti-illegal immigration blogger.

    Even the Anglos aren’t getting it, according to the Washington Examiner;

    At a pair of family-owned Laundromats in Woodbridge and Dumfries, owner Ginger Trest is touting support for the boycott to show solidarity with the immigrant customers who make up about 50 percent of her clientele.

    “We do not agree with the resolution,” Grest said. “We feel it is discrimination directed toward one segment of the population.”

    One segment of the population whose very presence here represents a violation of Federal law. How hard is that to understand? I guess it makes Ms. Grest feel “enlightened” to embrace criminals. I guess it eases some of her liberal guilt.

    More “legal residents” speak to the Post;

    In interviews in Manassas and Woodbridge, several dozen Latinos said they supported the boycott, and some were indignant about the way they feel immigrants have been treated in the county. Only two or three said they did not know about the boycott.

    “I am only buying in Hispanic stores this week. I am a resident now, but I am still an immigrant, and it is not good what they are trying to do,” said Abel Santiago, 28, a Mexican restaurant worker who complained that he had been stopped and asked for identification recently. “We feel so much hate and resentment now. But we should have our rights, too.”

    Compa, I feel resentment towards you because you’re lying. No one is targeting you because you’re Latin, just like the troops in Iraq aren’t targeting terrorists because they’re Arabs. It just seems that there are alot of Latins who immigrate here illegally – the key word being “illegally”, f’Pete’s sake. Get over it and figure out why you’re here and not back in your own country. Because back home sucks and here it sucks a lot less.

    These “Mexicans Without Borders” pinheads have muddied the debate so badly with their charges of racism that I’m not surprised law enforcement is confused. So these racist dorks want us to change the laws in this country to accomodate them – then this country isn’t the same country they wanted to make their lives in, it won’t offer the same opportunities, the same quality of life. And by coming here, they’ve deprived their own country of a pair of working hands, working minds and conditions there get worse – and it becomes even worse, forcing more people to come here.

    It makes more sense that latins use their inherent ingenuity and work ethic to make lives for themselves in their own countries and make the lives of their families and neighbors better with their sweat and brains – and end this country’s decline into the third world. That’s why the President has been trying to get these trade deals with Latin countries through a resistant Congress and passed the corrupt trade unions and Big Sugar – to make lives for latins better in their own countries so we aren’t torn apart by small-minded racists in those oddly named “Mexicans Without Borders” and “La Raza”.

    Don’t expect a lot of help from wishy-washy Democrat governor Tom Kaine solving the illegal immigrant issue in Virginia. Washington Times’ Natasha Altamirano writes today;

    “The governor does not object to localities choosing to enter into localized agreements with [U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement],” said Kevin Hall, Mr. Kaine’s spokesman. “He has concerns, however, about asking state troopers to assume primary enforcement of federal immigration responsibilities.”

    So he’s found a way to have his cake and eat it, too. He doesn’t have to enforce the laws, but he has no problem with underfunded localities enforcing the laws. Pure politics. How helpful is that to the discussion, Virginia?

  • Gonzales resigned

    The Washington Post reports;

    Attorney General Alberto R. Gonzales announced his resignation today, ending a controversial cabinet tenure that included clashes with Congress over the firing of nine U.S. attorneys and over the use of warrantless wiretaps in the war on terror. 

    I guess I missed something. What has been proven that the Attorney General did that prompted this kind of reaction from the uber-partisan Left;

    “Alberto Gonzales was never the right man for this job. He lacked independence, he lacked judgment, and he lacked the spine to say no to Karl Rove. This resignation is not the end of the story. Congress must get to the bottom of this mess and follow the facts where they lead, into the White House.” — Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev.

    Ah, Karl Rove lives and breathes. So I guess the Senate’s investigation is through – Reid has come to a decision about this as a result of a completed investigation.

    “It has been a long and difficult struggle but at last, the attorney general has done the right thing and stepped down.” Sen. Charles Schumer, D-N.Y.

    Who made it a long and difficult struggle, Lil Chucky? Maybe it was you and your tight-assed little pricks who were determined to find something wrong where there was nothing?

    The Justice Department under Gonzales “suffered a severe crisis of leadership that allowed our justice system to be corrupted by political influence.” Senate Judiciary Chairman Patrick Leahy, D-Vt.

    Corrupted by what what political influence Leaky Leahy? Like when the Attorney General of the previous administration wouldn’t investigate her BOSS? Or like when Gonzales let your monkey-ass slide on charges that you leaked national security-sensitive information for political reasons. He should have fried your dusty ass.

    “It is a sad day when the attorney general of the United States resigns amid a cloud of suspicion that the system of justice has been manipulated for political purposes. More than accountability, we need answers. ….If the power of the prosecutor has been misused in the name of partisanship, we deserve a full airing of the facts.” — Rep. John Conyers, D-Mich., House Judiciary chairman.

    “Manipulated for political purposes” like when you, John Conyers, tried to influence the Senate to delay advice and consent for Gerald Ford’s VP appointment so you could impeach Nixon and install the Democrat Speaker of the House as president in effect overturning the people’s vote in 1972? Ya mean like that?

    “He has exhibited a lack of candor with Congress and the American people and a disdain for the rule of law and our constitutional system. I strongly urge President Bush to nominate a new attorney general who will respect our laws and restore the integrity of the office.” — Sen. Edward Kennedy, D-Mass.

    What about your lack of candor and disdain for the rule of law on the night and the decades since Mary Jo Kopekne died, Jabba the Kennedy.

    “It’s about time … Gonzales now joins a long list of Republican officials resigning under a cloud of scandal, but these resignations cannot purge the Bush administration of its problems. The true problem rests with the Bush White House itself, which continues to put what’s best for the Republican Party ahead of what’s best for America.” — Democratic National Committee Chairman Howard Dean.

    “Resigning under a cloud” of manufactured scandals, Dipshit Dean. Tell me what Gonzales did that was so scandalous. Just saying the words don’t make it so, numbnuts.

    “Better late than never.” — [the prettiest girl] Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards.

    That must be what you tell the crowds when you leave them standing in the hot sun for hours while they await your string of lies and hypocrisy.

    Barack Obama today released the following statement on the resignation of Attorney General Alberto Gonzales.

    “I have long believed that Alberto Gonzales subverted justice to promote a political agenda, and so I am pleased that he has finally resigned today. The President needs to nominate an Attorney General who will be the people’s lawyer, not the President’s lawyer, and in an Obama Administration that person will first and foremost defend and promote the rights and liberties enshrined in our Constitution,” said Obama.

    Who tipped over your tricycle, sonny? Just because you “long believed” something, that doesn’t make it so. Immature little sissy.

    The fact that Harry Reid mentions that the investigation must continue tells me that no one has proven anything yet. Yet all of these ignorant peckerwoods have already passed judgement. Is it any wonder he resigned in the face of a jury that had already convicted him?

    I hope other minority citizens in this country take notes and see what happens when they stray from the Democrats’ plantation.

    From the Wall Street Journal;

    “It is my hope that whomever President Bush selects as the next attorney general, he or she is not subjected to the same poisonous partisanship that we’ve sadly grown accustomed to over the past eight months,” [Senator Mitch] McConnell (R., Ky.), said in a statement.

    Don’t count on it – in fact I doubt that the president will get another Attorney General given what the Democrats consider a “choice”. Hell, I’ll bet Schumer and Kennedy would oppose the nominee if he was either of them. Schumer said this about Gonzales when the President named him as the nominee a scant three years ago;

    New York Democratic Sen. Charles Schumer said at the time: “It’s encouraging that the president has chosen someone less polarizing. We will have to review his record very carefully, but I can tell you already he’s a better candidate than John Ashcroft.”

    Curt at Flopping Aces speculates on Gonzales’ replacement – but personally I don’t think a Bush appointee will ever sit in the office again.

  • Iraqis, Bush surge

    Democrats can’t catch a break this summer. They were successful in turning American public opinion against the war in Iraq while they were in session, at the same time they managed to turn public opinion against themselves – with a tiny 18% approval rating (which means even their base has turned against them – for whatever reason Glenn Greenwald wants to use today).

    Despite Jack Murtha’s best efforts to smear our troops as cold-blooded murderers, the Marine’s article 32 investigation is slowly concluding that none of these guys cold-bloodedly did anything outside of their rules of engagement. The true professionals that they are. And despite Baghdad diarist Scott Thomas Beauchamp’s best efforts to lie about his involvement in wartime atrocities, and The New Republic’s best efforts to skirt journalistic integrity they have failed. 

    Jack Reed, Hillary Clinton and Carl Levin, then turn to bashing Nuri al Maliki, who yesterday struck back belittling them fairly well telling them they “should come their senses”. Nuri, we’ve been telling those jackals to come to their senses for years – it ain’t hap’nin’. And then today we learn that the Iraqis faction leaders have come to a key agreement;

    Shi’ite, Sunni Arab and Kurdish political leaders announced yesterday they reached consensus on several key measures seen as vital to fostering national reconciliation.

    The agreement by five leaders is one of the most significant political developments in Iraq for months and was quickly welcomed by the United States, which hopes such moves will ease the sectarian violence that has killed tens of thousands.

    This must really frost Democrats. They try to bash the US troops, and that doesn’t work. They try to bash our allies, and that doesn’t work. Barack Obama tries to get tough with Pakistanis and gets accused of trying to start a nuclear war. Last week, Sunni Iraqis started joining with Shi’ite Iraqis to fight al Qaeda in Iraq – I can feel the tension in the Democrats’ wadded panties from here.

    I couldn’t help but snicker yesterday while watched Jack Reed on Fox News Sunday try to call the violence in Iraq “sectarian” – still clinging to that whole “civil war” notion from last Fall, Jackie, boy?

    Then to top it all off, while they go on break to rest up from those three day weeks and four hour days, the President uses his vacation time to go around the Democrats and their willing accomplices in the press and tell the American people the truth about the war;

    President Bush has used a monthlong vacation by the Democrat-controlled Congress to mount a frontal assault on why the U.S. must remain in Iraq, declaring the “surge” of troops a success while also preparing war-weary Americans for a continued military engagement there.

    Throughout August, the Bush administration has filled the vacuum with positive news from the war front, culminating with the release of a report last week detailing “measurable” success during the surge of 30,000 troops the president ordered to Baghdad in January.

    In addition, Mr. Bush last week laid out a historical case for staying in Iraq using the wars in Vietnam and Korea as examples of premature pullouts, and he has used press conferences with four world leaders during his own vacation to press his case that victory is still within reach.

    The onslaught appears to be working. Pollster John Zogby said his firm’s most recent survey, to be released this week, shows “a majority of Americans do not feel the war is lost.”

    Democrats can’t even whine that the president took another month-long vacation this year.

    So I guess our troops aren’t the only ones surging – the Iraqis and the President have a few surges left, too.

  • Lazy Sunday Night Links

    I wondered where Robin at Chickenhawk Express was hiding. I hadn’t heard a peep from her since early Thursday. I was beginning to get worried. But then I popped over there tonight and I see why – she’s written a legal brief that should be enough to get the media indicted entitled “They Indicted the Haditha Marines Without a Trial – Part I Newsweek“ Please read it – truly a masterpiece. The best thing about it – it’s only Part I.

    COBDanny reports that Hugo Chavez tells the world that su Tio Fidel will never die. Mora at Babalu Blog says Oogo let the cat out of the bag.

    You have to watch this video of Chris Wallace verbally smacking Bill Moyers around at Hot Air.

    Jules Crittenden’s “Little Saddams“ is a must read if you think we need to leave Iraq.

    Bloodthirsty Liberal is getting Katrina Fatigue – I passed that point when I listened to a supposed Libertarian complain that the Feds weren’t doing enough to bail his whinin’ ass out.

    Curt at Flopping Aces discovers that the DUmmies twigged to our evil plan in “Bush has Killed the Birds!”

    mRed at Invincible Armor has an excellent article on the extermination of Black children (something I’ve been saying for years) in “One quarter of the Black population is now missing“  – I’d add “…just like Margaret Sanger planned”.

    Gateway Pundit reports that the mullahs are pleased they’ve finally got a smart bomb. Well that’s hardly news in Iran – Kamangir translates that Amadinejad just got through telling a group of students that Iran has much to teach the world about rocket science. Even though they still engage in public executions.
