The assimilation of Mark Steyn HH: Special appearance on this Wednesday by Mark Steyn, columnist to the world. You can read all of his work at Steynonline.com. Mark, let me compliment you, as I ordinarily do. But this week's Telegraph column on Zarqawi's desperation provided to me a perspective that I did not see in the mainstream media. He really is at wit's end, isn't he? If he's alive. MS: Well, I think so. Originally, these fellows were blowing up infidels. And from that point of view, that makes a lot of sense. Then they found it harder to blow...

  For Immediate ReleaseNovember 12, 2005 President's Radio Address      Audio      THE PRESIDENT: Good morning. This coming Tuesday, America's Medicare beneficiaries can begin to enroll for new prescription drug coverage. This new benefit is the greatest advance in health care for seniors and Americans with disabilities since the creation of Medicare 40 years ago. In the past, Medicare would pay tens of thousands of dollars for ulcer surgery, but not a few hundred dollars for prescription drugs that eliminate the cause of most ulcers. In the past, Medicare would pay more than $100,000 to treat the effects of a stroke,...

(Editor's note: Mr. Rove delivered this speech last night to the Federalist Society in Washington.) For some, it is the Bavarian Illuminati. For others, the Knights Templar. And in recent years, it has been the Trilateralists, the Bilderbergers or the neocons. But for Sens. Kennedy, Durbin, Schumer and Leahy, the most successful conspiracy in the history of mankind is one of the most visible and open, as shown by your willingness to put yourselves on display. Who would have thought powerful members of the World's Most Exclusive Club would be so threatened by a movement of confident, principle-driven, egghead lawyers?...

Joe's In For It Now - Friday, November 04, 2005 @ 3:23:37 PM This story popped up today on American Thinker. Apparently, Wilson outed his wife far before Novak ever did, and the site which normally carries the program and the speech is down. Does anyone have the mp3 in which Wilson gives his speech? Please, please, please email us at editor@spectator.org if so. Posted By: J. Peter Freire The American Thinker http://www.americanthinker.com/comments.php?comments_id=3345 The speech was given at EPIC, the Education for Peace in Iraq Center, a left wing organization, which has, a least for the moment, an audio file...

That will be my --? our 16th grandchild. Mr. President, I have thought about that, and I have to say that I've been in public service a long time.  Never have I been so concerned about our country. We have gas prices that are really unbelievable. This year they've been over $3 in the state of Nevada. Diesel fuel is still over $3 a gallon in Nevada. The majority...

Option A, we can get all our troops out by midnight tonight, and option B, we can get them...
