The threat of another terrorist attack on American soil continues to loom on the horizon.  Somehow, heretofore (knock on wood) Bush has managed to keep the terrorists at bay in terms of striking on American soil post 9/11.  What is Bush's secret?  Is it his fool-proof...

    I've been hearing a little bit of buzz regarding a speech Newt Gingrich gave this past week in which he said, "We are engaged in a phony war". When this quote is put into context it makes a little bit more sense so I have posted a link where you can view some of his...

Welcome to the new Theocracy Thread.  Beware of paper tigers.  You'll also find these comments under a friend's blog thread, that friend being dusty.  We like each other, and respect each other, but boy, do we disagree!!!!  Now, to borrow from what I believe to be the new...

I am sure that unlike the recent FBI report on Gitmo however, no one was chained in the fetal position for 18-24 hours, but a Detroit "terrorist" can now sue the county that jailed him. The Federal Judge upheld three other counts, including Koubriti's claim that he was "repeatedly...

So, would someone like to try and make the arguement that going into Iraq was NOT about the oil? On page 20 of the ISG report the phrase I quoted above is the second sentence. I have been reading the ISG report, not for its ideas on how to get out of there..but for the information about how bad...

Michael Hirsh has an exclusive web article up at Newsweek/MSNBC’s site. His contention is the Iraq Study Group’s(ISG) report won’t solve the problem’s in Iraq, or get our troops out of there any sooner than half a dozen other plans floated lately. A particularly grizzly...

Since the mid-term elections, we…the universal we, have been waiting with baited breath, and sometimes the occasional cocktail, for a plan to get out of Iraq. The Iraq Study Group is going to release their findings, hopefully, in the very near future. What could they possibly...

The number I just quoted in the title came from Channel 7's Eyewitness news talking head on the noon news. But to get the full force of that number this article by the NYT goes in depth on the horrible fact that: "The American military has not properly tracked hundreds of thousands of...

Richard Clarke, the only person to have detailed knowledge of what Al-Qaeda has been up to through 4 Presidents, has a new website. The name is the Good Harbor Report. He has an article up over there that is a good read. Here is just the opening salvo: "Put aside that some of the Iraqis...

On July 22nd, 2004, almost 3 years after the attack on the twin towers..the 9/11 Commission released its report. How has our President complied with the recommendations of the panel, which was half republican and half democrat? He hasn't. And evidently he thinks no one will pay attention to...

Over and over again I see people here talking about liberals as appeasers, Liberals as weak on terror; basically, I see a lot of bad information and wrong ideas.  So let's take a look at what a hard core Liberal War on Terror might look like: First, we'd set a timetable for Iraq. ...

This post can be read by going here. I tried to fix it three times and it comes out a mess each time. Sorry. I have no idea why it won't post correctly on this site.

I've been considering writing something up on the 9/11 mockumentary being trotted out for election season by ABC.  Thank you Sam for giving me the nudge I needed. Reading through Sam's piece, I see the mindset of a person who is willing to cut off their nose to spite their face.  We...

This comes straight from the horses mouth so to speak. The website belongs to the DCCC-Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, and this is the letter they sent to our esteemed leader(all bold print is my doing): September 4, 2006 The President The White House Washington, D.C. Dear...

The title and link below goes to Larry Johnson's blog and his current post. Mr. Johnson's resume is quite extensive, he is a former CIA employee, U.S. State Department’s Office of Counter Terrorism, is a recognized expert in the fields of terrorism, aviation security, crisis and risk...

This is my reasoning for why none of these conflicts work. I am sure people will be able to "shoot" holes in my argument, but that matters not. The "bad guys" for want of a better term, do not fight a traditional war. This fact was painfully obvious in Vietnam. You can...
