Next, the Corned Beef on Rye Stimulus!

| July 20, 2009 | Comments (1)

This story is both silly and sad at the same time. Matt Drudge plumbed the depths of the Stimulus Plan website recently to see what wasteful spending he could find. Lo and behold, he found that the Department of Agriculture has spent almost $1.2 on “2 POUND FROZEN HAM SLICED”. Now, common sense would tell [...]

Czar Crazy

| July 20, 2009 | Comments (0)

My latest post is up at the American Issues Project. In it, I take on the subject of the Presidential obsession with czars and note that when Robert Byrd writes a concerned letter to a Democratic President, things aren’t good at all. Here’s an excerpt: By now I’m sure you’ve heard that the White House [...]

The United States Should Oppose this Brutality, but We Won’t

| July 20, 2009 | Comments (2)

I honestly don’t care whether Iran is developing a nuclear weapon or not. My opposition to the tyrannical Mullahs is based solely in the belief that civilized human beings must not, under any curcumstances, allow evil to continue unabated.

By now, it’s no great secret that the President has developed an annoying penchant for hammering the panic button like he was one of Skinner’s rats trying to get a food pellet.

Stacy is deserved some congratulations today for clocking his two-millionth hit. He’s managed that pretty impressive milestone in not even 18 months of blogging, having broken many of the rules that new bloggers are told they must follow assiduously or be marooned in No Traffic Hell.

Shocker: Islamists Again Violate the Geneva Conventions

| July 19, 2009 | Comments (2)

Remember how we were told that if we beat ourselves bloody over perceived violations of the Geneva Conventions, the Islamist butchers who might capture our troops later would suddenly agree to follow them? Well, those people were idiots. KABUL (Reuters) – The U.S. military denounced on Sunday the release of a video showing a soldier [...]

Is that a Second Shoe I See Dropping?

The Inspectors General scandal has now become a little more interesting. Gerald Walpin, the AmeriCorps inspector general who was summarily fired in June amid controversy over his investigation of a politically-connected supporter of President Obama, has filed suit alleging that the firing was “unlawful,” “politically driven,” “procedurally defective” and “a transparent and clumsily-conducted effort to [...]
