Syria pursing nukes?

If a world, and particularly a Middle East, fed by radical Islamic jihad isn’t frightening enough already, there is now reason to believe that Syria is also pursuing nuclear capabilities. It’s a concern that they naturally deny.
Nonetheless, press reports provide considerable credible cause for concern. The Washington Post has focused on the issue since the [...]

Salazar Straddles the Fence

We hope Ken Salazar isn’t so far removed from his rural roots that he’s forgotten some pretty basic information about working on the ranch: if you keep a leg on each side of a fence long enough, sooner or later you’re going to slip. The freshman fence straddler from Colorado may be fixing to injure [...]

In Case You Missed It: Al Qaeda in Iraq

The September 10 issue of The Weekly Standard carries the most extensive feature article I have seen about Al Qaeda in Iraq (AQI) written by Frederick Kagan, one of the most knowledgeable scholars and journalists of our time on defense and military issues.

The madman of Tehran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is headed to New York with an invitation from the United Nations to address the General Assembly.

Good News of the Month: Erica Corder

It’s tough being a kid these days, but at Lewis-Palmer High School in Colorado Springs, Erica Corder worked hard enough to become one of fifteen recognized valedictorians of her 2006 graduating class. As one of the most accomplished students, Corder was granted time to speak – 30 whole seconds – at her commencement. Her remarks [...]

Tip of the Hat to Tom DeLay

We haven’t see all that much of the former Republican Majority Leader, Tom DeLay, known as “the Hammer” for his often tough, in-your-face, don’t-mess-with-Texas style of keeping the House Republicans in line and delivering the majority vote. DeLay resigned his Leadership position and later his House seat during the 109th Congress amid accusations from a [...]

Education: Hugo Chavez Style

Socialist thug Hugo Chavez, the president/dictator of Venezuela is clamping down on the schools. Whether it’s a Stalin, Hitler, Castro, Saddam Hussein, the Taliban, or Chavez, controlling the minds of the little ones is the strategy of totalitarian regimes every time.
