I wonder why articles like this never quite get around to pointing out that the subjects of the articles are thieves? They always seem long, for news stories at least, on sympathy and painting the subjects as warm, loving people. They never get around to the thousands and thousands of illegal immigrants doing time in [...]

The economy’s been on a rampage for at least the past three years, but darned if you could find any sort of news coverage from our beloved MSM. Until now. Apparently, the MSM has an angle on this red-hot economy they like, namely that IT COULD KILL YOU! Sorry about the capital letters there, but, [...]

I know I’m a day late to this story but I wanted to give it some room to develop before I went off. And so it has. Yesterday it came out that NBC’s Dateline show was recruiting Muslim Arab men here in America to do some “decoy” work for them. They’d go to various places [...]

Congratulations are in order for Ed Morrissey, who was named “The Week” magazine’s Blogger of the Year for 2005. Captain Ed has long been a favorite writer of mine and one of the people whose work inspired me to begin blogging nearly two years ago.

Looks like two people I don’t like very much are moving on to other ventures. First, Tom Delay, the guy that leftys use to scare their children into eating their brussel sprouts, is resigning his House seat.
