It is about time! I’m glad Cheney went over there and told them to get with the program: Pakistani security forces captured the former Taliban defense minister, Pakistani intelligence officials said Friday, in what would be the highest-ranking leader from the Afghan insurgency to be arrested since it lost power in 2001. […] Akhund was…

I’m glad to see that there are Sunnis who have not joined forces with al Qaeda and are willing to fight to end their occupation of their territory: Iraqi security forces backed by Sunni tribesmen killed dozens of suspected Sunni insurgents over several hours of fighting Wednesday in a village in western Iraq, Iraqi police…

I’ve been asked to comment on the Walter Reed Army Medical Center (actually it was more like taunted) so, here it is: anyone, even a mean, nasty conservative like me, would be appalled that our troops are not being properly treated after being wounded fighting for this nation. I believe we should give them only…

I think that it might have been cheaper to turn one of the classrooms into a religious observance room instead of losing donors over removing the cross from the chapel: A major donor to the College of William and Mary is among the college’s alumni who have voiced strong opposition to a decision to remove…

Before he runs for the general election? He doesn’t appear to be in primary mode. Why else ignore CPAC?

So, one of the selling points of Rudy Giuliani is that he promises to nominate judges like Scalia, Alito and Roberts and yet Politico looked at the rulings of the judges he appointed in NYC and found they weren’t in that vein: But most of Giuliani’s judicial appointments during his eight years as mayor of…

You’ve lost your power to end wars, Cronkite. That’s why this is laughable: CBS 5 then asked if his strong words against the Iraq War would have the same impact as his words against the Vietnam War. “Well, I think it’s a little late for that now,” Cronkite said. “I would like to think it…

By Frank Viola I was asked if I wanted to review this book but they gave me a short time frame to read it (which is a really good idea because I am not good at the self-motivation thing) but I knew with all the reading that I had to do for seminary, I wouldn’t…

In Italy the parents decide whether their child can keep the baby or be forced to have an abortion: An Italian judge has ordered a thirteen year-old girl to have an abortion because her parents are opposed to their daughter giving birth. The decision relies on laws in Italy that allow parents to make the…
