Throw this up to the top: a supposed full copy of the letter. So, the Drive By Media made a big deal out of said letter to President Bush, the first time this had been done in 27 years. So, people in the Blogosphere picked it up. And for what? Apparently a long, rambling discourse […]

On the heels of this post, we get the NY Times’ response. Well, isn’t this special. And normal for the Times (h/t BigBadHowie): An effort by the American military to discredit the terrorist leader Abu Musab al-Zarqawi by showing video outtakes of him fumbling with a machine gun — suggesting that he lacks real fighting skill […]

In one, Zarqawi — the leader of al Qaeda in Iraq — has trouble trying to operate […]

Story here: Al-Qaida conspirator Zacarias Moussaoui escaped the death penalty Wednesday as a jury decided he deserved life in prison instead for his role in the bloodiest terrorist attack in U.S. history. “America, you lost,” Moussaoui taunted. Me, I wanted the SOB dead, dead, dead. Of course, with the way our system works, it would […]

Has Howard Dean, John Kerry, Reid, Pelosi, et all been coaching him? (via Yahoo News) The U.S. military has only seen “loss, disaster and misfortune” in Iraq, al-Qaida’s No. 2 said, in a video message that a U.S. official deemed part of a propaganda campaign to demonstrate the terror network’s relevancy.

Let’s start with this from ye olde landlubbin’ AP: TEHRAN, Iran – The president of Iran again lashed out at Israel on Friday and said it was “heading toward annihilation,” just days after Tehran raised fears about its nuclear activities by saying it successfully enriched uranium for the first time. President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad called Israel […]

Just for the sake of argument, lets say we (meaning the GOP) have some kind of amnesty program, perhaps where all illegals must register within six months, then have to go through all the rigamarole that the Senate Bill lays out. What do we end up with? We end up with people who we can collect taxes, […]

Blogs For Bush has this covered, via the Boston Globe: Sen. Russ Feingold’s call for censuring President Bush has limited support, but two New England Democrats said on Sunday that they won’t rule it out. Feingold’s resolution would censure the president for authorizing a warrantless surveillance program, which the Wisconsin Democrat contends is illegal. Co-sponsors […]
