Huck is closing in

Many of us were pleasantly surprised when, after a lot of work, and digging deep, the Huckabee campaign was able to raise more money on-line in the month of October as they had in the previous quarter.
When the November goal was announced, I took a deep breath and figured that this time, Huck had bitten [...]

Hillary picks questions for CNN - GOP debate?

If I had a nickel for every time I’ve heard CNN referred to as Clinton News Network, I’d have a bunch of nickels.
So, imagine my surprise when I heard Bill Bennett refer to one of the YouTube questioners as a “member of Hillary Clinton’s campaign.”
Oh, really.
I waited for CNN to post the transcript so I [...]

Another grim milestone

from NowPublic.com…  10,000 islamic terror attacks since 9/11
In the mind-numbing aftermath of 9/11, who would have guessed that within just a few years American politicians would be campaigning on promises to ensure the comfort of incarcerated terrorists… that Hollywood writers would be generating reams of scripts replete with noble Muslim characters persecuted by fictitious American [...]

80’s (weird looking) bands with short names

Rick Ocasik from the The Cars qualifies as a weird looking fellow. This is from the Candy-o LP from about 1981.
Dangerous Type

What to make of Hillary and Huma

Hugh Fitzgerald sums up the puzzlement quite nicely…
if the reports are to be believed, Huma Abedin remains, despite living in the West, a “deeply conservative” Muslim. We are entitled to assume, therefore, that she still regards the Qur’an as the uncreated and immutable Word of God. And we are entitled to consult that [...]

Muslim “yoots” riot in France (again)

Somebody might want to make a quick search to verify this, but flash-back to 2005, and nothing that the yoots did in the French rioting merited coverage by the MSM. If you got your news from anywhere but the right-of-center blogosphere, then there’s a good chance that you didn’t even know about it.
Compare that [...]

I present two separate perspectives for your consideration. First is an analysis from Family Security [...]

Bizarre.

Nuke to the Future

The portable nuclear reactor is the size of a hot tub. It’s shaped like a sake cup, filled with a uranium hydride core and surrounded by a hydrogen atmosphere. Encase it in concrete, truck it to a site, bury it underground, hook it up to a steam turbine and, voila, one would generate enough electricity [...]

Happy Thanksgiving, y’all. ….. Enjoy!
