I have long felt that Rudy Giuliani is our best bet for the 44th President of the United States; quite frankly, I would vote for him regardless of what party ticket he ran upon. The reasons are quite simple: We’re at war and will be for the foreseeable future. Guiliani was nearly killed in the […]
The Busher Reactor Under Construction in Iran – 2004, Digitial Globe Quickbird 2 As some of you may have guessed, I try to stay current on world events dealing with ongoing and potential military conflicts, especially where they involve ongoing or potential proliferation of WMDs. Cruising by one of the Arms Control Blogs, I see […]
I’ve reached that point in the election season where I largely keep the TV off, except to watch shows that I’ve already recorded on my DVR and thus can hit the ‘CM SKIP’ button to help skip over the endless political attack ads. This ad, however, is an absolute hoot, as if a few of […]
UPDATE (10/15/06): Henderson has posted some of his data and observations above. “Evil” Bruce Henderson, my co-blogger, has developed a data mining tool that constantly surveys the web, building up data about housing prices and mortgages being issued. The results are troubling, to say the least; I’ll leave it to him to post the information […]
FURTHER UPDATE (still 10/11/06, but later on): Since some of the later YouTube postings of the David Zucker “Madeleine Albright visits North Korea” video are also disappearing, I’ve captured it (using Applian tools) and am making it available here for downloads (right click and do a “Save Link As”): zucher.flv (1.62 MB; you can download […]
At present it seems that the North Koreans set off a small to medium yield, large format implosion type nuclear device, similar to the gadget around 10:30 AM local time. Detonation was likely in a horizontal shaft associated with a coal mine that was no longer in use. Given other seismic data from nuclear tests […]
A lot of folks appear to be bothered that ExxonMobil had profits of $10.36 billion in the 2nd quarter of this year, or as CNN/Money reported it, $1,318 per second. That figure doesn’t bother me at all for several reason, including the facts that (a) 70% of those profits came from outside the United States […]
UPDATED (07/28/06): A new poll shows Johnson with a 25-pont lead over McKinney. Boy, that was quick. UPDATED (07/25/06): I’ve made my contribution to Johnson; have you? Hank Johnson is running against Rep. Cynthia McKinney (D, GA-4), who is one of the folks that makes me consider leaving the Democratic Party. Johnson forced McKinney into […]
Via the immensely valuable Real Clear Politics comes a link to this USN&WR article about how Howard Dean’s “50-state strategy” is actually playing out. Sample: If that doesn’t sound revolutionary, consider this: Mississippi’s Democratic Party hasn’t trained precinct captains for more than a decade. Until recently, the state party consisted of a single full-time staffer. […]
The Moonbats are far too predictable
[Updated 12/30/06] A thought just hit me: I wonder how many Americans will see the flags at half-mast for the death of Pres. Gerald Ford and think instead that they have been lowered for Saddam Hussein? (As a side note, I’ve cleaned up the formatting of the comments below.) Saddam Hussein, one of the worst […]
