Obama ‘Votes Present’ on Iran

Monday, June 22nd, 2009

Obama's silence on this matter is the most shameful action (or, in this case, inaction) by the supposed Leader of the Free World since Jimmy Carter twiddled his thumbs while 52 Americans were held hostage for 444 days 30 years ago by the same group of terrorists now running Iran. »

A Need for Self-Defense

Tuesday, November 11th, 2008

With the election of Barack Obama has come, for many people, a renewed realisation that the world is a very dangerous place; that we are still in the middle of a war against fanatical killers who deliberately target civilians. We must rely on an inexperienced, naive, UN-appeasing “world citizen” type to keep the enemy... »

The Media’s Manchurian Candidate

Sunday, February 3rd, 2008

With most of the primary elections still to come, the media has annointed John McCain the inevitable Republican candidate. That’s understandable — McCain has been in the pocket of the mainstream media for years. Especially since 2000, he’s been the Republican they could always count on — along with Senators Chuck Hagel (NE) and Dick... »

Rejecting Rudy

Wednesday, October 10th, 2007

It seems a lot of Republicans these days are urging Conservatives to “be pragmatic” and vote for Rudy Giuliani next November if he’s the Republican nominee. “We have to stop Hillary!” we are told, and that’s true. However, if the Republican party puts Giuliani forward as their candidate, election day will find me going... »

Return of the Amnesty Bill Horror

Monday, June 25th, 2007

Like some shambling undead Thing from a horror movie, the amnesty bill we all thought buried with a stake in its heart has been resurrected. Once again, it’s headed for the Senate floor to wreak havoc. But this is the kind of summer sequel most people don’t want to see. Neither Democrats nor Republicans in... »

The Ill Effects of Amnesty

Friday, June 1st, 2007

Yes, I know: it’s not amnesty because we’re using a different word now. However, any time the penalty proscribed by law for an offense is waived for all offenders, it’s amnesty no matter what you may call it. Do they get to stay here? (Hint: Yes.) Well, that’s amnesty. And the effects will be... »

The Betrayal of America

Friday, May 18th, 2007

Just before the 2006 election, I predicted (among other things) that without the slim Republican majority in the House of Representatives, amnesty for illegal immigrants would soon become a reality. “If Democrats take control of the House,” I wrote, “that barrier will vanish like mist, and the Democrats will have a flood of uneducated,... »

Jihad Comes to New Jersey

Friday, May 11th, 2007

It sounds like a long bad joke, the kind that never seems to reach the punchline. A group of Muslims living the good life in America — some of whom came here illegally, and lived in “sanctuary cities” — decide the country’s so bad, they ought to buy some AK-47s and grenades and take... »

Invasion of the Gun Snatchers

Wednesday, April 18th, 2007

One of the worst aspects of the aftermath of a national tragedy like the school shootings at Virginia Tech is watching the rush by many on the Left to politicise it. Most Americans are spending the first few shocked days mourning those who died, recognising the heroes and offering what comfort we can to those who... »

Nancy Pelosi: Fool or Felon?

Tuesday, April 10th, 2007

By the late 1790’s, America was fighting an undeclared “Quasi-War” with France on the high seas. France’s Revolutionary government, at war with England, began allowing its navy to seize American ships trading with that country. England began interfering with American ships trading with France. Congress authorised the War Department to build six frigates (primarily intended... »

The Iraq Surrender Act of 2007

Wednesday, March 28th, 2007

Both House and Senate have now sent a clear message to the world: Osama bin Laden was right. America does not have the stomach for a fight. We cannot stand the sight of our own blood. Our allies, especially those in Iraq who are depending on us to help them stabilise their country, get... »

Another Minor Act of War

Monday, March 26th, 2007

What would happen if one country committed a blatant act of war against another, and no one did anything about it… or worse, attempted to compromise with the attacker? Would that country’s leaders feel embarrassed over their breach of protocol and apologise? Or would they feel emboldened by the soft response to commit more... »

Benchmarks to Failure

Friday, March 16th, 2007

The Democrats seem unable to come up with a way to lose Iraq without being held responsible for the failure. They must find a way to appease their angry far-Left base — or, as Rep. David Obey (D-WI) redundantly called them while berating a Marine’s mother who asked him to cut off funding for Iraq, the... »

With Republicans Like These, Who Needs Democrats?

Monday, March 5th, 2007

In years past, a potential Presidential candidate had plenty of time to introduce him or herself to the public between election seasons. But with many states moving their primaries up to bolster their importance in the 2008 Presidential race, nominees will be determined nearly a year before the election takes place. The “common wisdom”... »

A Conservative Candidate, part 2

Monday, February 12th, 2007

Once a potential Presidential candidate has passed muster on National security, Iraq, the War on Terror, judges and the border — issues which are most directly under the President’s control — we can examine his or her positions on issues of the second tier. These issues are certainly no less important than those of... »

A Conservative Candidate, part 1

Thursday, February 8th, 2007

With 2007 barely begun, the 2008 Presidential race is already heating up. Every time I turn on the news, awash in stories of Presidential candidates, I get the urge to check my calendar to make sure we didn’t skip a year. Not all of those who will run have announced their candidacy, and not... »

Who Says ‘Save Darfur?’

Wednesday, January 31st, 2007

There is no doubt that Darfur, the western part of Sudan, is in a horrible situation. Members of the Janjaweed milita, a radical Muslim group supported by Sudan’s Arab government, roam the land killing, raping, burning and pillaging. About two million people — blacks, either non-Muslims or not Muslim enough to suit the militias... »

Running from Iraq

Monday, January 22nd, 2007

Who would ever have imagined that America would be trying so hard to fight a politically-correct war just five years after 9/11 that we’d do the enemy’s work for him? In a thousand years of open battle, al-Qaeda’s mass-murdering fanatics could not possibly force the United States military to retreat one single inch. Yet some... »

A New Direction in Iraq

Monday, January 15th, 2007

Well, the Democrats have been screaming for a “change of direction” in Iraq for ages, and it looks as though they’re going to get one. The new direction they prefer, of course, is “away, at high speed, with tail tucked firmly between legs.” Instead, they’re getting a new focus on Baghdad as the center... »

Stage-Managing Impeachment

Saturday, January 6th, 2007

Having taken control of both houses of Congress in the 2006 elections, the Democrats proceeded to surpass even my own worst predictions concerning their domestic policies before they even took their seats. Raising the minimum wage will hurt the small businesses that create the most jobs and slow growth in larger companies. Forcing unions... »
