Iraqis turned out to vote Sunday in their country’s first free election in a half-century, defying insurgents who launched deadly suicide bombings and mortar strikes at polling stations. By midday,...
The Day Care Crisis. Study after study shows that 75 percent to 80 percent of mothers would dedicate themselves to full-time childrearing if they could; that same number prefer informal care for their children in their absence to commercialized day-care centers. Yet, only those who place their children in commercialized care get tax credits...
A new poll by Strategic Vision shows that Dino Rossi would defeat Christine Gregoire by a wide margin if a new election for governor was held in Washington State for governor. A majority of those polled also believe that Dino Rossi legitimately won the election, and it was stolen from him by the Democrat...
The results are obviously still coming in, but it’s great to see a report of 80% turnout in Najaf.
With two hours to go until the polls close in Iraq, there have been several suicide bombs detonated and at least two dozen people dead in various areas. Despite that, people continue to line up in that country’s first free election. One good thing about this election is that the danger in Iraq has...
Fathers Inferior? By Edward Grey, thanks Harry. Imagine being a black in the 1950s reading a newspaper column like the recent “Deadbeat dads work to avoid manhood” but instead was “Shiftless blacks duck the law.” Imagine the supporting quotes were from a lawyer beholden to a bigoted judicial system and the single statistic was...
Conservatives aren’t winning because more Americans believe in their worldview. Its because their worldview is based in right versus wrong. There’s no reason the Left can’t- and shouldn’t- follow the same approach. View full story: Right, Wrong and Why the Left Lost
In about 50 minutes to polls open in Iraq. Here are my predictions… 7-8 million will vote. Up to 1000 will be victims of violence (includes injuries) There will be no widespread vote fraud The MSM will proclaim failure of the vote The “world community” will question the validity of the vote. The University...
I don’t know what makes Ted Kennedy tick—or rather not tick. Perhaps it was the murders of his two great brothers President John F. Kennedy or Senator Robert Kennedy. Perhaps it is guilt due to his cowardly and drunken abandonment of a dying woman at Chapaquiddick–perhaps it’s just due to years of drunken self...
Here’s the Palestinian Authority in all their glory. To make things even worse, the al Aqsa Martyrs , who perpetrated this outrage, have recently been made part of the official security force of the PA by newly “elected” Mahmoud Abbas. The family of a mentally retarded Palestinian man who was tortured to death earlier...
This is wishful thinking on the part of the Iraqi President, who is a Sunni Muslim, and would very much love to see a low turnout tomorrow so the Sunnis can claim that the election is not legitimate. Unfortunately for him and his ilk, about 80 percent of Iraqis say they plan to vote...
Here we go again, folks. Under the equality rubric, a female public defender from Ventura County wants to make it legal for women to sunbathe topless in California’s public beaches and parks, without being “exposed” as sex offenders under the state’s Megan’s Law.

Hemp Revolution. A film by Yakov Bok. This was an inspiring documentary as it unearths many of the prevalent lies about marijuana and the non-THC containing hemp plant. I will admit though that the quality of this documentary really is not worth four stars, as the soundtrack is embarrassing and the footage is technically...
F. Scott Fitzgerald. I just viewed this documentary last night and loved it. I must admit that I have not read Fitzgerald’s books for many years but treasured the memories which were recirculated by this film. I read Hemingway’s “A Moveable Feast” not too long ago and it renewed some of my fascination with...
Capturing the Friedmans. I should note before saying anything else that this movie is not for the light of heart. It is incredibly serious and unbelievably depressing. By the end, one feels as if they have had shovels of dirt tossed upon them for two hours straight. Yet, those of us who love documentaries...
A group called “CitizensUnited.org” has purchased a couple of billboards that will be placed around Hollywood in February. The boards feature the likenesses of well known Hollywood (and Flint, Michigan) left wing types. The billboards display a list of Hollywoodites that could double as the world’s most incompetent law firm: Sheen, Moore, Chase, Penn,...

Code Blue Blog’s insight on the discrepency between the defference given to mentally disabled murders vs mentally disabled innocent people is telling… You can’t give the death penalty to mentally handicapped people, but you can’t kill off mentally handicapped people because the husband has fathered two children with another woman and wants to legitimate...
