Death Penalty More Merciful than Euthanasia?

I was just listening to a little Springer on the Radio and heard a caller bring up the fact that Tookie Williams was put to death in 22 minutes, while it took almost a week for Terry Schaivo to die once her feeding tube was removed. While the circumstances of their deaths have little in [...]

Bush’s Desperate Attempts to Save his Presidency

It’s not every day that I agree with something Bob Barr says, but today’s one of them: Bob Barr quoted on firedoglake: “A critical component of White House Scandal Defense 101 is rallying the partisan base. This keeps approval ratings in territory where the wheels don’t start falling off. The way to achieve this goal [...]

Hey, Mr. President. It’s about Leadership

Doug Brinkley does a great job explaining the difference between our current president and some previous presidents who knew how to lead: Doug Brinkley: Bush’s speech in Jackson Square was a phony: “BRINKLEY: It’s about leadership. When you look at presidents, a Theodore Roosevelt or a Harry Truman or a Ronald Reagan, the great American [...]

Power Line: The Last Word on Spielberg’s “Munich”…

Another non-review movie review from Power Line Blog: Power Line: The Last Word on Spielberg’s “Munich”…: “The Last Word on Spielberg’s ‘Munich’…” I guess you have to break up the time you spend defending wars you’re not fighitng with something, eh?

Rush Limbaugh’s Right to Privacy: for him, but not Americans?

What have you folks been doing that you so desperately want to keep hidden” Rush’s [...]

Power Line Reviewing More Movies the Haven’t Seen

I’ve been trying to figure out what makes many conservative blogs so crappy compared to some of the top liberal blogs. I’ve previously pointed out how right-wing blogs are less likely to allow comments. My theory on that is you need to have your facts straight if you’re going to allow comments. Otherwise, you’ll get [...]

Power Line: The Washington Crime Wave Continues

Dear Mr. John Hinderaker, Using the threat of nuclear attacks to justify shredding the constitution is about as idiotic as using the threat of nuclear attacks to justify fighting a war that doesn’t need to be fought. The Bush administration has done both, but you continue to support them. How strange. I notice that you [...]

Paul Mirengoff Loses Touch with Reality Based Community

You can’t make this stuff up. Paul Mirengoff of Powerline Blog suggested tonight that Democrats are in panicing about President Bush’s improving poll numbers. He then goes on to suggest a statement by Alan Colmes on FOX News is representative of all Democrats. Anyone who uses a FOX News Democrat to draw their opinions of [...]

Catholic Schools Steal Children’s Innocence

A few local (St Paul / Minneapolis) Catholic parents seem to find something to fear around every corner. Their latest nightmare involves Catholic school curriculum involving child safety and touching. While most reasonable and sane people would assume that Catholic school curriculum on an issue like this is designed to teach children the difference between [...]
