This time the children are smiling

Friday, July 6th, 2007

Professor Reynolds has not only the link to a Michael Yon’s latest update, but also a personal email he received from Michael.

The Growing Consensus on Global Warming

Friday, July 6th, 2007

A few days ago there was some question as to whether a growing majority of scientists agree that there such a thing as global warming, and that humans are contributing to it (ergo, this round of global warming is not like past cycles).

300 Congressional Investigations In Little Over 100 Days

Friday, July 6th, 2007

Is it any wonder the public has low esteem for this Congress?

Biden Calls Bush “Brain Dead”

Friday, July 6th, 2007

From the Senator who was found to be a plagiarizer in his last campaign for president, comes the unforgettable and hateful words that President Bush is “brain dead.”

Pick your analogy

Friday, July 6th, 2007

President Bush and other administration officials have been casting about for an historical parallel that best explain and rationalize its war in Iraq. And they’ve traveled all over time to find them.

Radical al-Qaida sheik to be freed for BBC reporter.

Friday, July 6th, 2007

I guess not everyone hates reporters.
In exchange for the release of BBC reporter Alan Johnston, Britain told the Hamas terror group through mediators it would free from jail an extremist sheik accused of serving as al-Qaida’s spiritual adviser in Europe, Palestinian sources involved in the negotiations claimed to WND.
The sheik, Abu Qatada, [...]

Judicial Vacancies Leave GOP With Empty Feeling.

Friday, July 6th, 2007

Pat Leahy might say he is going to stick to what Biden said but let’s wait and see. This is a very interesting time to be an observer of politics.

Abandon ship. This could be starting something horrible, in the eyes of the administration.

GOP lawyer: Facts ‘misconstrued’ in Rich case. Did you know?

Friday, July 6th, 2007

Interesting facts from the past.
Vice President Dick Cheney’s chief of staff testified Thursday he believes prosecutors of billionaire financier Marc Rich “misconstrued the facts and the law” when they went after Rich on tax evasion charges.

Friday, July 6th, 2007

An outsider? The more I read the more I wonder if this guy is the man I thought he was.

Independent Voters Swing Dems’ Way.

Friday, July 6th, 2007

What happened? What have the republicans done to bring this on themselves?
