As I just wrote, Islamic radicals need a place to call home, whether we approve of their stunted world view or not. Of course there’s more to consider, specifically that many Afghan women want U.S. and international troops to stay in the country until their safety and preferred lifestyle is assured. That’s the thorny ethical…

President Obama hasn’t committed to an Afghan strategy yet, but for now troop levels will not be reduced substantially. From my admittedly limited perspective – I was only 2 years old when the North Vietnamese launched their Tet Offenseive – the recent attacks on American troops in Afghanistan are reminiscent of that earlier war. 10…

The American legal system has allowed itself to be corrupted by giving too much creedence to the ridiculous, as with giving consideration to the idiotic notion that dog fighting videos might have free speech protection. Tapes of criminal activities are no more legitimate than the crimes themselves. A better argument might be that dog fighting…

Some say that the Bible is too liberal and needs to be revised. Sounds like a bad idea to me.

Uber-lefty celebrity Janeane Garofalo is still hard at work banging the racism drum. Does anyone actually listen to this has-been? I hope not. A little dose of reality taken by Democrats might result in better policies that more people approve of. Black’s got nothing to do with it, unless the International Olympic Committee is racist,…

ACORN, the activist organization accused of voter fraud in the 2008 presidential election and various other unsavory deeds, is now suing the reporters who exposed some of the group’s outrageous actions. Since when did telling the truth about a group dedicated to defrauding the American people become a crime?

I left this comment on Matt Yglesias’ snarky post which said, per the standard liberal playbook, that this year’s anti-tax tea parties are all about racism: “your basic tea party crowd isn’t the sort of crowd in which a Confederate flag is unwelcome” Matt, tell the black lady who headed up our communities’ tea part…

9/11/2001 is day that, like Pearl Harbor, will live in infamy, both because of the Muslim terrorists murdered of nearly 3000 people and western civilization’s reaction to their callous, craven act of violence. Events of the days that followed demonstrated the best of America, times of great drama and heroics followed by a stirring sense…

The left’s whining in recent days about conservatives who have stood up and protested against their health care agenda item – including some from President Obama – is both comical and ridiculous considering who started the Age of our Discontent way back around the time I was born. Regarding the ridiculous, Jason Arvak says all…

There may be no legal reason for Mark Sanford to resign as governor of South Carolina, but that only demonstrates that there’s a difference between the law and what’s right. Mr. Sanford should have a little more respect for the people he serves and for the Republican party that he’s damaged.
