Iraq Sees Dramatic Reduction in Deaths

I usually post stories like this on my page at http://www.blogit.com/Blogs/Blog.aspx/WriterofLight8744/ for war news the lamestreamers usually ignore, but this is a bit broader in its implications. From http://www.newsmax.com/international/iraq_toll_plunges/2007/10/13/40645.html: Iraq Sees... Sign in to see full entry.

Carter: US does torture prisoners

Former (thankfully) president Jimmy Carter claimed in an interview with Wolf Blitzer that the Bush administration is lying, that it indeed does torture prisoners. From a story at http://www.newsmax.com/insidecover/Carter_torture_charge/2007/10/11/39962.html: The United States tortures prisoners,... Sign in to see full entry.

Shrillary Bribes Voters with Government 401(k) Retirement Plans

Back on September 28, I offered my opinion on Shrillary’s idea to give every newborn American a $5,000 bond towards college education and buying a house. To sum up my musings: Bad idea. Now she’s come up with an even bigger bribe for the ignorant. How about this for a way to buy your vote: Elect... Sign in to see full entry.

Where's the Outcry? Shrillary Hires Crook as Advisor, Exploits 9/11 in Ads

Two stories today about Shrillary's quest for the Presidency serve to show the double standard between liberals and conservatives. First, from http://www.examiner.com/a-977346~He_s_back__Sandy_Berger_now_advising_Hillary_Clinton.html: Longtime Clintonite Sandy Berger is now advising her. Berger, you...

Congressman: No Room in America for Anyone who Impugns Troops?

On top of all the hype and spin about the phony “Phony Soldiers” scandal, we now have a Congressman claiming that there is no place in America for anyone who impugns our men and women in uniform.???????? Honestly – that’s what Misrepresentative Steve Israel (D-New York) said! When I heard of the... Sign in to see full entry.

That Evil, Rotten, Hard-Hearted, Uncaring Bush Vetoes Health Care for Kids!

President Bush has vetoed legislation passed by Congress that would radically expand federal health care for the nation’s children. The cad! The bounder! He did the right thing. So I’m a cad and a bounder too? No, I demand responsible use of my tax dollars, and this bill doesn’t qualify. I’ve... Sign in to see full entry.

Are Those Who Criticize Military Without Serving Phonies?

This business about Rush Limbaugh allegedly smearing service members who are critical of the war just gets stranger and stranger. It would be hysterically funny, if not for the deadly seriousness with which the liberals spread that lie. Not only do we have Senator Ringside Harry Greed suddenly... Sign in to see full entry.

Harry Reid Defends the Troops From Rush Limbaugh?

That's exactly what Senator Ringside Harry Greed wants you to think. He is trying to set himself up as the champion of our men and women in uniform, defending them from the attacks and smears of Rush Limbaugh. He has drafted a letter to be sent to Mark Mays, president of Clear Channel... Sign in to see full entry.

Shrillary Wants $5,000 Bond Given to Every US Newborn – But Whose Money?

Just when I think modern liberalism can’t get any weirder, it does. Today’s pioneering venture into the realm of far-left strangeness comes from Shrillary herself. She “likes the idea” of every child born in the US getting a $5,000 government bond towards college and a first house. From a story at... Sign in to see full entry.

Are the Democrat Presidential Candidates Going to Get Us out of Iraq?

Much was made after the 2006 election about how the Democrats were elected to get us out of Iraq. The Democrat presidential wanna-bes echoed the cause, claiming over and over that they'd pull us out posthaste, consequences for Iraq, the Middle East and the world be damned. At least they used to. At... Sign in to see full entry.
