You've probably already noted that the pro-abortion crowd is making political hay blaming anti-abortion groups for the actions of the lone, nutcase-anarchist who killed Tiller. Talking Points Memo is known as a top-shelf liberal blog (liberalism at the top lefty blogs is so complete that it extends to taking liberties even with spelling). The doctor's body had barely hit the ground before Talking Points made the usual idiotic case that you, if you believe abortion is murder and have the temerity to speak about your belief, are responsible for Tiller's death. " No one is fooled Reverend... The time for...

It's been a week since this happened (on May 25, 2009 Beijing Time), and strangely enough, this is story is not in the mainstream media in the United States. There are only a few American outlets such as the Wall Street Journal that have reported on this. The others seem to want to only focus on the missile firing instead of the actual nuclear testing that is the size of the one that once destroyed Hiroshima. This is huge. It means that NORTH KOREA ACTUALLY HAS THE BOMB. From Guardian UK: Country risks further international isolation as underground nuclear explosion...

Dick Cheney is giving the Republican Party a demonstration of how to fight a popular president. Stake out defensible high ground, do not surrender an inch, then go onto the attack. The ground on which Cheney has chosen to stand is the most defensible the Republicans have: homeland security. In seven-and-a-half years after 9-11, not one terrorist attack struck our country. And, unlike Obama's position, Cheney's is 100 percent reality based. He was there. He lived through this. He made the decisions to use the harsher techniques on the worst of the enemy who could yield the greatest intelligence to...

SNIPPET: "On 15 May 2009, the Jihadi Brigades of Internet Incursion, which appear to be a part of the Shumukh Forums, announced a successful “incursion” of over 250,000 email addresses. Their announcement stated: We bring good news to the Islamic Ummah of the continuation of the electronic jihadi media raids in support of the truth in a time of disgrace and shame. Your brothers in the Jihadi Brigades of Internet Incursion have targeted 265,612 email addresses belonging to citizens of the Arabian Peninsula and surrounding countries … with emails containing Usama bin Laden’s “Practical Steps to Liberate Palestine,” which the...

No. This is not some half-brained idea that smacks of a neo-Nazi revival. It comes straight from the Obama Administration. Energy Secretary Steven Chu (the same man who didn't realize that oil policy was an important part of his job) is proposing a new plan to reduce energy consumption. According to Dr. Chu, what we need to do is to paint all flat roofs and all streets white.

NEFA Foundation Chart: "Al-Qaida's Online Couriers: The Al-Fajr Media Center and the Global Islamic Media Front (GIMF)" SNIPPET: "The NEFA Foundation has released a new interactive chart that I have created titled, "Al-Qaida's Online Couriers: The Al-Fajr Media Center and the Global Islamic Media Front (GIMF)." The chart maps out in detail the multi-step process by which multimedia recorded by mujahideen organizations in the field is distributed online--including the critical roles played by the pre-eminent Internet logistical service providers (namely Al-Fajr and the GIMF)."

Right now, there's considerable debate in this city about the measures our administration took to defend the American people. Today I want to set forth the strategic thinking behind our policies. I do so as one who was there every day of the Bush administration, who supported the policies when they were made and without hesitation would do so again in the same circumstances.

Henry at his very best! Admits he doesn't have a clue!

"These new production lines and products are related to...

President Obama's "New Deal II" is the Raw Deal too, just as FDR's was. FDR did not bring us out of the Depression, quite to the contrary. He prolonged it. Using data collected in 1929 by the Conference Board and the Bureau of Labor Statistics, two UCLA economists, Harold Cole and Lee Ohanian, conducted a four-year study (in which they concluded that FDR's policies prolonged the Great Depression by seven years. The United States didn't climb out of the Great Depression until 1943, when our manufacturing plants were humming to meet both our own, as well as foreign military demand.

Senioritis Cured by: Deborah Lambert, May 21, 2009 Senioritis is that time-honored “disease” that affects graduating seniors during the last half of their senior year. However, it might just be in remission, according to USA Today, which reports that “skipping classes, missing tests, attending parties instead of athletic practice and generally slacking off at the end of the last year of high school,” might not be a winning option this year. Here’s why. Since colleges are swamped with a record number of applications from the largest graduating classes in history, they have decided to over-enroll their freshman classes....

Defending an Exceptional History by: Malcolm A. Kline, May 20, 2009 Truly, now more than ever, students cannot let their education end with college graduation, particularly when institutions of higher learning are increasingly sacrificing bodies of knowledge for reams of interpretation. For example, too few graduates get to learn about America’s uncanny knack for dismantling its defenses before being forced into world conflicts by enemy attacks and her remarkable resilience in overcoming same. In an astounding bit of serendipity, the percentage of the federal budget that the federal government devotes to defense was similar before both the Pearl Harbor attack...

This article will identify the root causes of what is coming to be known as, The Great Recession. Certainly, this economic downturn, thus far, isn't anything nearly as dire, statistically, as The Great Depression, which sported 25% unemployment. However, this is easily the worst recession since the early 80's, and could end up being worse than that one if trends continue and the government doesn't get out of the way.

TUESDAY, MAY 19, 2009 "In gaz we trust"? I'd rather change GazTranzitStroyInfo's vision to HangUp Team's infamous - "in fraud we trust". It is somehow weird to what lengths would certain cybercriminals go to create a feeling of legitimacy of their enterprise.

Inconvenient Emails from the NY Times by: Bethany Stotts, May 19, 2009 Now that New York Times public editor Clark Hoyt has published his official story of the events surrounding the decision to spike Stephanie Strom’s investigation of ACORN’s alleged fundraising connections to the Obama campaign, it becomes imperative for this correspondent to reiterate that Strom personally attempted to mislead AIM just days after she cut off contact with Anita Moncrief. “The story involved allegations that Barack Obama’s campaign, in league with Acorn, a left-leaning community activist group, was guilty of technical violations of campaign finance law. Evidence supplied by...
