If the American public were to watch this video and learn the truth, they’d storm Capitol Hill with pitchforks and torches:

I haven’t said much about who I’d like to see as President. Until now.

My next choice, Fred Thompson, did poorly in his must-win state, South […]

This item, via Michelle Malkin, has me (a proud Army veteran) seeing red:

The AP has an article on more people filing their taxes online. One interesting thing they noted was that few people are […]

The only thing missing is a the demand for a troop withdrawal deadline that coincides nicely with the 2008 Presidential election season:
Tens of thousands of Shiites — a sea of women in black abayas and men waving Iraqi flags — rallied Monday to demand that U.S. forces leave their country. Some ripped apart American flags […]
