This is a new wrinkle: A former Special Forces soldier accused of beating an Afghan detainee who later died said federal courts don’t have jurisdiction in his case since he was working outside of the United States. Lawyers for David Passaro contend that provisions of the U.S. Patriot Act that stretched authority to prosecute […]

Most folks out there are aware of the conviction of Lynne Stewart, a civil rights attorney who was convicted of of smuggling messages from her client, Sheik Omar Abdel-Rhaman, to and Egyptian terrorist network. There was overwhelming evidence, taped conversations, eyewitness accounts, etc. Oh, and don’t forget that she admitted it. She thought the law […]

One of the refrains that I often hear from the left is that we right wingers never attack our own. That is not true, but, yes, we do not do it often. However, I take exception to Fox News’ John Gibson over his "My Word" for today. I caught his act by accident, flipping the […]

You remeber, those elections that we were told would Never happen Be delayed fail miserably paint the streets red with blood So far, 0-4. Persuing the Washington Times, we see that many of the leading moonbats have had little to say. Nada from Soros, Fat Mike, or Jimmy "worst president ever" Carter. The Carter Center […]

Just perusing some blogs, and came across The Redhunter, who has a great essay on the Iraqi elections. I think he has hit on a good point which I have mention on here on 2 separate occasions (here and here), the Iraq Liberation Act. Lots on the left want to forget about that, since Kerry […]

I am not so sure that this shouldn’t be under humor instead of War on Terror. In surfing the pajamasphere, I was wondering what the deal was with the soldier thing. I guess reading the news might have made sense. Hat tip to American Dinosaur for explaining the deal. Now, I may not be the […]

From the fingers of Mike Hendrix of Cold Fury (whose bandwith we killed this month), comes a great commentary on the war in Iraq. Hat tip to Right Wing News, where you might want to go to read Mike’s article, at least until the new month starts :) Quick excerpt: 2) Bush acted on the […]

Watching the news of the day on Iraq, and it is simply an incredible thing to watch Iraqi’s literally dancing and singing before, during, and after voting. Their joy is infectious. And, yes, it is on Fox News. CNN and MSNBC have yet to show the joy of the Iraqi people during the times that […]

One of the current Demorat slanders is "how can you have an election when you do not know who the candidates are?" Sorry to burst that lead balloon, but the names of the candidates were known during the week. Iraqi newspapers Thursday published for the first time the names of some 7,000 candidates for the […]

So far, despite repeated pessimism, the Iraqi elections are going well. Yes, there has been some violence, but we expected it. The "insurgents" are against any form of democratic process. Zarqawi has said so. Voting is scheduled to end at 9am Eastern Standard Time. So far, it looks like they had a better turnout then […]
