Political Compulsive Disorder
Saturday, December 31st, 2005It’s a funny thing we are seeing these days. Democrats know full well that their tactics of slander and defeatism are not working to win elections, yet they just will not consider their position in any kind of mature light. Strange. Yet we have seen this before, and the problem seems [...]
Poll
Saturday, December 31st, 2005Will 85-year-old ultra-liberal Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens finally retire in 2006?
Yes! And President Bush will name a 50-year-old conservative to replace him!
No. But he can’t hang on for three more years, can he?
As long as a Republican is president, Stevens will have to be carried out of the Court feet-first.
The Fence
Saturday, December 31st, 2005The House’s proposal to build a 700-mile fence at the US-Mexico border has come in for much criticism, with Mexico saying that it “is not going to bear, it is not going to permit, and it will not allow a stupid thing like this wall.”
Leaving aside the delusional state of Mexico’s government officials, who apparently [...]
New Media – Old Media
Friday, December 30th, 2005Mary Katharine Ham is on fire and she is taking aim at a blog hater proposing an old media strike.
Jimmah And The ESP Lady

Prayers Requested
Friday, December 30th, 2005Please say a prayer for Captain Ed’s First Mate this week.
2006 New York Governor Race
Friday, December 30th, 2005Donald Trump is considering running for Governor in New York as a Republican. It is only speculation at this point, but, if Trump entered the race, it would re-shape Empire State politics.
Lots Of Interesting Stuff
Friday, December 30th, 2005I apologize for light blogging lately. My kids have been out of school for the holidays and it is hard to get much blog reading done, much less any blog writing. Luckily for you all, there is a lot of interesting stuff to read at Gateway Pundit. Jim Hoft has a story [...]
Republicans, Democrats, and Independents OK with NSA Intercepts
Friday, December 30th, 2005The Democrat politicians will need a little wiggle room on their “concerns” over unauthorized telephone conversation intercepts. A Rasmussen poll released this week identifies a majority of Republicans (81%), Democrats (51%), and independents (57%) who believe the eavesdropping of calls between suspected terrorists and persons living in the US is warranted.
The pollsters should [...]
Salute A Spook
Friday, December 30th, 2005You want to talk about ‘the few, the proud’? How about a job where you risk your life, but the medals you win will be locked away, because the missions are classified so highly that you can’t even tell your family what you were doing? How about a job where, if someone knew [...]
Quote of the Day
Friday, December 30th, 2005“Rosa,” an illegal alien: “The people who know the laws don’t explain them to us. We need more information.”
Lady, it’s real simple: If you see a big fence at the US border, don’t jump over it! There, I’ve explained the laws to you.
This Would Make An Amazing Movie
Thursday, December 29th, 2005This kid is either incredibly brave or incredibly stupid, and he doesn’t sound stupid to me. I admire his willingness to put his life on the line for what he believes, but if I were his mother I would probably keep him under lock and key for a while.
Maybe it was the time [...]
PA Election 2006
Thursday, December 29th, 2005A bill passed the PA Senate this month that already has “Fast” Eddie Rendell concerned. Obviously we know why. Pennsylvania in 2006 will be a volatile election battleground with the Santorum/ Casey Senate race and the the Rendell / Swann or Scranton governor’s race. The Republican controlled House already has passed a [...]
More 2006 Predictions
Thursday, December 29th, 2005The Anchoress has some pretty bold predictions for 2006. Commenters are encouraged to make their predictions in this thread.
NRO has some pretty interesting predictions, too. I especially liked the ones from Ned Rice. I didn’t know that Warren Bell was a Hollywood conservative and the executive producer of According to Jim. [...]
