Is anyone aware of an attack on the American Spectator web site? Upon attempting to access the site (using Windows 2000NT with a Firefox 3 browser) I received the following warning: Looking up the site in Google, I found the following at the top of the entry list: I have sent an email to the editor's attention, but was curious as to whether anyone else has had the same problem. I wonder whether the Kos Kids or the MoveOn Morons have been at work here....

TWO DAYS after former Republican Rep. Bob Barr announced his candidacy for President as a Libertarian, and one day after a Republican lost a special election to a Democrat in a strongly GOP Mississippi district, more than half of House Republicans voted for the pork-saturated, $300 billion farm bill. Idiots. Three weeks ago, a Rasmussen Reports poll found that 48 percent of Americans trusted Democrats more than Republicans on the economy. Only 40 percent trusted Republicans more. That is the legacy of big-spending Republican policies pushed by leaders like Tom DeLay and President Bush and continued by the current GOP...

On Turning 50Okay, so I'm 50 years old today, and the only reason I bring it up is because, well, actually there are two reasons. The first is because for a person to have lived half a century is really an accomplishment, especially if you lived as dangerously as I chose to in my youth. I no longer do many of the things I was doing way back then, such as drinking beer and chasing women all night long, drag racing my Dad's Pontiac, and smoking enough wacky weed to deforest half of Colombia. So: thank you, dear Lord for...

The candidate that I am looking for has not emerged yet, but if he does, he would possess…. Mitt Romney’s energy Ron Paul’s economic policy Tom Tancredo’s border control Rudy Guiliani’s foreign policy Fred Thompson’s sense of humor John McCain’s experience and Mike Huckabee’s faith. The problem is, what I fear we are going to get is…. Fred Thompson’s energy Mike Huckabees’s economic policy John McCain’s border control Rudy Guiliani’s sense of humor Tom Tancredo’s experience Ron Paul’s foreign policy and Mitt Romney’s faith.

KUALA LUMPUR, Malaysia — Malaysia's Muslim men are suffering sleepless nights and cannot pray properly because their thoughts are distracted by a growing number of women who wear sexy clothes in public, a prominent cleric said. Nik Abdul Aziz Nik Mat, the spiritual leader of the opposition Pan-Malaysian Islamic Party, said he wanted to speak about the "emotional abuse" that men face because it is seldom discussed, the party reported on its Web site Wednesday. "We always [hear about] the abuse of children and wives in households, which is easily perceived by the eye, but the emotional abuse of men...

The Presidential election process is spinning further out of control with each passing election cycle. The present “2008” electoral process, as we all know too well, actually commenced last year (in 2006) as candidates began to organize and announce their campaigns in order to start raising money and to get a jump on the perceived competition. A temporary factor clearly driving the unprecedented length of the 2008 campaign is quite simply: hatred of George W. Bush. Democrats and the leftist groups that make up their "base" passionately detest him, the mainstream news media loathe him, and his own Republican Party...

NEW YORK A new Gallup Poll will only reinforce those who claim that while the rich get richer most Americans don't feel they are sharing in the growth in our economy. The stock market may be climbing and the unemployment remains relatively low, but 7 in 10 Americans believe the economy is getting worse -- the most negative reading in nearly six years.

Britt Hume introduced this segment at the end ofFox News Special Report this evening.This guy is a cell phone salesman and appeared on the British version of "American Idol" - Britain's Got Talent. His name is Paul Potts, he sings the aria Nessun Dorma from Puccini's Turandot, and he is magnificent. Brought tears to my eyes. Pay attention to the judges' reaction: even Simon Cowell was blown away.

Edwards: Move Past 'War on Terror' May 23 11:36 AM US/Eastern By BETH FOUHY Associated Press Writer NEW YORK (AP) - Democrat John Edwards Wednesday repudiated the notion that there is a "global war on terror," calling it an ideological doctrine advanced by the Bush administration that has strained American military resources and emboldened terrorists. In a defense policy speech he planned to deliver at the Council on Foreign Relations, Edwards called the war on terror a "bumper sticker" slogan Bush had used to justify everything from abuses at the Abu Ghraib prison to the invasion of Iraq. "We need...

The events of the past week, especially the predictable and violent reaction of radical Islamic opinion to the Pope’s remarks, have thrown into sharp relief the primary lines of battle of the coming war. And make no mistake: a world war is coming, as between Western civilization, represented primarily by the United States on one side, and the forces of radical Islam on the other. Of course (and as many of us are aware) numerous articles have already been written assuming the war has already begun, and quibbling over whether this is World War III or World War IV and...

The war against Islam By James Carroll | June 7, 2005 ...The point is that this conflict has its origins more in ''the West" than in the House of Islam. The image of Muslims as prone to violence by virtue of their religion was mainly constructed across centuries by Europeans seeking to bolster their own purposes, a habit of politicized paranoia that is masterfully continued by freaked-out leaders of post-9/11 America. They, too, like prelates, crusaders, conquistadors, and colonizers, have turned fear of Islam into a source of power.

The curious lack of curiosity about WMD Larry Elder May 6, 2004 "Week after week after week after week," said Sen. Ted Kennedy, D-Mass., about President Bush's rationale for going to war with Iraq, "we were told lie after lie after lie after lie." Were we? Jordan recently seized 20 tons of chemicals trucked in by confessed al Qaeda members who brought the stuff in from Syria. The chemicals included VX, Sarin and 70 others. But the media seems curiously incurious about whether one could reasonably trace this stuff back to Iraq. Had the terrorists released a "toxic cloud," Jordanian...

As the river of life flows along and we with it, we all learn to observe those landmarks along the banks that bind us to the shore, offering safe harbor and the comforts of home. For me, Rush Limbaugh has long been such a marker. As a Conservative, frequently alienated from popular culture and subject to the hostility directed to those such as myself, Rush Limbaugh was a Rock, a lighthouse shining through the fog of Liberalism. I felt that way in 1989, when I first heard him on the air, and I feel that way today. Of course, I...

You may talk o’ Ben & Jerry In the snows of St. Johnsbury, When you’re sitting in the ski lodge drinkin’ Schnapps, But ‘eer long you come to talkin’ ‘Bout the politicians’ squawkin’ For the White House after which they lick their chops. Now in Vermont’s wintry clime, Where I used to waste me time, Partaking of the four-year college scene, Now of all that white-faced crew, The strangest man I knew, Was our odd bombastic Gov’nor Howard Dean. And it was: Dean!, Dean!, Dean!! How he loved to make a scene; And pronounce opinions Liberal and Green; Once born...
