I don't know that he has much of a chance, but be assured, if Christopher Walken became president, the US could probably retire one whole carrier group. He is just that scary. (Hat tip to Instapundit)...

I take apart a lefty's argument that Michelle Malkin is a hypocrite, and the first comment I get is exactly the kind of sexually demeaning garbage that Malkin and Kathleen Harris have to put up with.

My message to Cindy Sheehan: Try to imagine what you sound like to others, especially when you talk about your family. You sound like a person caught up in a cult.

Some people have indicated that I should move on. I will, and soon, but let me explain why I've focused so much on CIndy Sheehan recently. I find the story personally fascinating, and when all is said and done, blogging...

Freedom of speech is not freedom from consequences. Words to live by. One rude liberal forgot, and now he's unemployed. Here's hoping a Republican gets his job.

Pictures from Camp Casey show Cindy Sheehan being interviewed. Is it just me, or does it look more like she's holding court?

A point I've been making over and over again on this blog is that Cindy Sheehan is being used by the hard left. Left to her own, she might have found some peace and progressed through her grieving, but we'll...

When a bureaucratic institution like the United Nations faces investigation over wrong-doing, it seems to go through the Seven Bureaucratic Stages of Denial. Note that denial is not one stage -- it's all the stages.

Cindy Sheehan, anti-war protester and troubled mother, is a study in someone who uses and is being used. In Freudian terms, she looks to be suffering from a classic case of displacement. But her friends in the anti-war movement don't care.

It seems like the media figures that it is of critical importance to make the Hiroshima bombing a "first" (the 60th anniversary of the dropping of the Little Boy bomb passed this weeked on August 6). It was a "first" in many ways, and it was horrific for the people who suffered from it, and it did do much to break Japanese resistance and bring an end to the war without invading the home islands.
But it was also a historic event, meaning that its place in history cannot simply be moved around for the sake of a story headline.
