    Canada's new security minister and Deputy Prime Minister Anne McLellan told Washington that Canada would "support the US in any way we can," her spokeswoman Farah Mohamed said. US Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge called McLellan, who has been in the job nine days, to give her details of the latest US nationwide terrorist alert, the spokeswoman said. Ridge did not ask McLellan to make any changes to Canadian security efforts in the wake of the new heightened alert in the United States, Mohamed said. Nevertheless, the Canadian minister has asked officials to review the nation's security procedures to make...

    The Anti-Father Police State December 23, 2003 by Stephen Baskerville, Ph.D. Columnist Cathy Young is known for her even-handed attempts to cut through the pretensions of both the left and right. She has also shown considerable courage by delving into what for many journalists is a no-go zone: divorce and fathers' rights. So it is a little awkward to find myself cast as one of her combatants, with my own views and others' whom I typify characterized as "extreme." In the December issue of Reason magazine, Young sorts out, with her customary balance, a debate between proponents of Clinton-Bush family...

    Ex-Nicaragua Leader Voices Saddam Support Saturday December 20, 2003 2:31 AM By ISIDRO LOPEZ Associated Press Writer MANAGUA, Nicaragua (AP) - Saddam Hussein still has at least one friend abroad: Former Nicaraguan President Daniel Ortega expressed support for the ousted Iraqi leader, saying Friday it would be a ``barbarity'' to force him to stand trial under U.S. occupation. Ortega, the leader of the Soviet-backed Sandinista government that governed Nicaragua in the 1980s, said a trial for Saddam would only be appropriate if Iraqis overthrew him. ``We maintain our solidarity with the Iraqi people and with Saddam Hussein, who continues to...

    Less than half show support for EU By Ambrose Evans-Pritchard in Brussels (Filed: 09/12/2003) Less than half the population in the European Union's member states now support the EU project, according to polling results yesterday. The latest Eurobarometer to be released this week found that just 48 per cent of EU citizens viewed membership as a "good thing", down from 54 per cent last spring. Britain was by far the most negative state, with positive feelings tumbling to 28 per cent, but even the French were below half for the first time after months of battles with Brussels over tax...

    Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger stormed onto a Valley Plaza mall parking lot Thursday afternoon, backed by a blaring rock-and-roll soundtrack. The classic anthem by Queen, "We Will Rock You," roared out over the crowd six times and chants of "Arnold, Arnold" rose and faded away. A loud cheer burst from the crowd when the movie star-turned governor finally swept up to the podium just before 1 p.m. "Thank you," Schwarzenegger told the crowd. "You flexed your muscles and you made me governor." Schwarzenegger said he came to Bakersfield to ask the estimated crowd of 5,000 to exercise its political power for...

    Rush is back on the air Monday – just as he promised.

Despite a barrage of negative press that began with a cover story in the National Enquirer in early October, Rush’s audience is sticking with him. Asked if they "support Rush Limbaugh,"...

A Day at Baltimore Airport Dear Friends and Family, I hope that you will spare me a few minutes of your time to tell you about something that I saw on Monday, October 27. I had been attending a conference in Annapolis and was coming home on Sunday. As you may recall, Los Angeles International Airport was closed on Sunday, October 26, because of the fires that affected air traffic control. Accordingly, my flight, and many others, were canceled and I wound up spending a night...

    Support for Bush ebbs away because of growing violence By Andrew Buncombe in Washington 30 October 2003 The growing violence in Iraq and America's apparent inability to deal with it are eroding public support in the United States for the occupation. A poll released yesterday suggests support for war has plunged since spring, when Saddam Hussein and his regime were ousted. The Gallup poll published by USA Today revealed that 52 per cent of Americans think the war was "worth it", compared with 71 per cent back in April. With the election campaign gathering pace, such polls are a worry...

       As Conservatives we are different. We believe in the positive aspects of the United States and what our Blessed country and ideals stand for. And we are proof that one does not always need to be in government service to 'defend the Constitution against all enemies, foreign and domestic'.    It is obvious that in today's media-centric world it can be difficult to believe that one voice makes a difference, but it does. Each of us have but one voice, and every one makes a difference. It is thru combined efforts that our Voice is heard.    We can use this Voice...
