Wars may be fought with weapons, but they are won by men. It is the spirit of the men who follow and of the man who leads that gains the victory.

Yesterday Bush vetoed the Iraqi pullout bill. In that bill, it had emergency spending for the military as well. That was both expected politically, and I expected it for bigger reasons. Spending will be done one way or another until a proper funding bill is presented. The war won’t stop just because a few loonies [...]
Apparently “the Dems” picked up the endorsement of MSNBC, who claims unequivocally that Americans are siding with Dems. The headline leaves no room for error. It’s not “most”, “a majority”, or “some”. It’s all. Every single American. Mexican, Canadien, Brazillian, it’s all of them. That’s a pretty powerful block of people to be supporting “Dem”. [...]
Without immigrants pouring into the nation’s big metro areas, places such as New York, Los Angeles and Boston would be losing population. Many smaller areas, including Battle Creek, Michigan, Ames, Iowa, and Corvallis, Oregon, would lose people as well, according to population estimates released Thursday by the Census Bureau. "Immigrants are filling the void as [...]
A funny thing happened on the way to the polls for Nancy Pelosi. When she ran the races, set the agenda, and got the Democrats the majority in Congress, it was on a wave of negative publicity against President Bush. After she took over, with her kinder, gentler, less corrupt rule, we get this:
According to CNN, 58% of “Americans” want to see US troups to leave Iraq by 2008 or sooner. It then goes on to state that 1,027 took the poll and it has a margin of error of +-3 percent. I’m here to tell ya folks, and I have before, that’s complete BS. 1,000 people polled [...]
Earlier this year, several reports started circulating once again about the end of the world as we know it. This time via an asteroid that has an incredibly remote chance of hitting Earth somewhere around 2036. This was fairly immediately after Congress told NASA in 2005 it needed to spend more time finding what is [...]
Duncan Hunter from California is in. I think he’s a long-shot at best. I really get the feeling he’s just using 2008 to get his feet wet for a ’12 shot. What do you all think?
The candidates are jumping on board for the 2008 Presidential race as fast as they can. So far, I count about 100 or so, or so it seems. One power broker in DC so far has remained steadfast in their refusal to run, Condoleeza Rice. Now, there is a site pushing Condi to run. I’m [...]
And, not to be omitted intentionally, Mitt Romney’s in as well.
Somehow I lost John Edwards in the shuffle. He "declared" a little while back. Since I was distracted with work stuff, by the time I got freed up, he had been swarmed by all the other announcements. That, situation, I think, is probably true for his entire campaign to this point. He’s a good campaigner, [...]
