Some good news from Iraq: The Iraqi translator who identified Saddam Hussein when the dictator was captured has registered to vote in the Jan. 30 Iraq election. Acting as a civilian translator for U.S. troops massed a few miles south of Tikrit in December 2003, the Iraqi-American known as Samir told the cowering man to […]

Breaking news, maybe, possibly, regarding the possible, maybe, capture of Abu Musab al-Zarqawi. Iraq’s interior minister on Saturday refused to comment on rumors that the top terror leader in the country had been taken into custody. "I wouldn’t like to comment for the time being," Interior Minister Falah al-Naqib said when asked about rumors that […]

What Mandate? Well, first of all sparky, President Bush (I love writing that!) received more votes then any other candidate in U.S. history. 2nd, what of Clinton? In 1992, he only received slightly more then 2/5ths of the popular vote. 43.3%. That means 3/5ths of the country voted against him. In 1996, he received 50%. […]

Some interesting stuff. I had stopped by American Warmonger this afternoon (using IE), and saw a discussion of him using a favicon. So, I checked up on it, since I had previously thought you could only do it if you owned a domain name. WRONG. It is actually incredibly simple. What is a favicon? See […]

I have created an offshoot site using Typepad (first time I did something really bad, no clue what), which specifies what it is. The name is pretty basic, American Flag, as is the site. Just a clearing house. I will probably create a nice banner for it this weekend.

Some serious nuts out and about yesterday. You can get the whole show here I wonder if the nut with the sign realizes it is Red? Chaining yourself to a gas pump? Brilliant. Bet they feel real good today. Burning the flag? Way to show your patriotism. Love her tinfoil hat (lady in pink).

From MSNBC: Aid groups warned on Friday it might be too soon for the U.S. military to scale back its emergency operations for Asia’s tsunami victims, while an informal cease-fire between Indonesian troops and rebels appeared to have collapsed, threatening to derail relief efforts. Following a U.S. announcement on Thursday that American forces would begin […]

A few highlights from President (again!) George W Bush’s speech: At this second gathering, our duties are defined not by the words I use, but by the history we have seen together. For a half century, America defended our own freedom by standing watch on distant borders. After the shipwreck of communism came years of […]

Not according to Rob at Say Anything: But a review of the cost for past inaugurations shows Mr. Bush’s will cost less than President Clinton’s second inauguration in 1997, which cost about $42 million. When the cost is adjusted for inflation, Mr. Clinton’s second-term celebration exceeds Mr. Bush’s by about 25 percent. According to the […]
