Newly-minted Attorney General, Alberto Gonzales, intends to pursue a very similar agenda to that of his predecessor, John Ashcroft.
Hmm, I don’t think that will make the far left or the putative “Libertarians” feel very “happy.”
Do you?

Gateway Pundit sent me a link to an interesting write-up on recent events in Kyrgyzstan.

The anti-GOP media says that Democrats are geared up for battle over those prospective federal judges whom Tom D…, er, what was his name again?, blocked or filibustered last term.
Yeah, they also seemed quite fired up — before the fact, at least — to defeat Alberto Gonzales’ nomination and that class action reform bill.
In any [...]

(Dis)organized labor is about to descend, on Sin City, to try to figure out how to make relevant a disparate special interest cabal whose overall membership has declined, by two-thirds, over the past few decades.
Ah, to be a fly on the wall at the, um, “meeting” between the head of the SEIU and the head [...]

Today’s events in Lebanon are the latest in a trend that promises to re-shape the Middle East.
In Iraq, elections were held at the end of January that have elected a government of the Iraqi people’s own choosing.
In Egypt, President Hosni Mubarak has opened to the door to democratic elections.
In Palestine, Prime Minister Abbas has re-itereated [...]

You’ve probably heard that there are interesting developments in Lebanon today. I’ve already made clear what I think about developments like this:
Afghanistan, Palestine, and Iraq have now held successful, open elections. Just as important is the fact that these elections produced relatively moderate, reasonable governments. Ten years from now John Kerry will be claiming credit [...]

GayPatriot watched the Oscars. There was Bush-bashing.

According to Rollcall.com, Republicans in Georgia have nearly completed a re-map of the state’s congressional districts. The map currently being used was drawn up by a Democratic Governor and a Democratic legislature. How much things have changed in two years! The new plan would endanger the re-election prospects of two Democratic incumbents [...]

I will probably not be posting much, if any, more for the next few days. My four year old is undergoing her third ear surgery in 9 months on Tuesday and I will not be taking my laptop to the hospital. Prayers and upbeat thoughts are appreciated.

Ted Rall is finally admitting that his challenge has been met. (Scroll down for admission.) He is shocked to find that such vitriol exists on the leftie blogs. Just how is that possible? Jeff at Musing Minds wonders the same thing, but just sees it as an average day in the blogosphere.

I have written before about how dangerous the consequences of inaccurate and misleading reporting can be, especially in relation to foreign countries. This is one reason the Eason Jordan slander against the U.S. military was so egregious. In some liberal foreign media, and quite frankly, some American media as well, the [...]

Howard Dean, Chairman of the religious cult previously known as the Democrat party: “This is a struggle of good and evil. And we’re the good.”
How would Democrats react if the Republican National Committee Chairman had said something that hateful?

Heard an interesting factoid on Fox News Sunday today: According to a Zogby poll, 39 percent of Democrats will watch the Oscars, while only 13 percent of Republicans will do so.

This sounds like good news:
In a surprise and dramatic reversal, President Hosni Mubarak on Saturday ordered the constitution changed to allow challengers on the ballot this fall, paving the way for the first-ever multiparty presidential elections in the world’s most populous Arab country.
An open election has long been a demand of the opposition but was [...]

The Hedgehog Blog has some questions for people who oppose President Bush’s suicidal immigration “reform” plan:

What is your plan, and how will you get it enacted?
Do you really think the American public has the stomach to see 10 million people deported, many of whom have been here all their lives?
If the public is not ready [...]
