    Why I’m Joining The GOP Leaving The Left For Fun And Profit Jeff Gillenkirk May 29, 2005 After a lifetime voting for and working for Democratic candidates and independents, I’m finally going to make the switch and become a Republican.
    The reasons are many, not the least of which is age. I turned 55 recently and, having lived more than half my life, I can’t afford to worry anymore about the other guy. It’s time for me.
    As a Republican, I can now proudly — indeed, defiantly — pledge to (…)

    George W. Bush, during his press conference with Tony Blair, 6/7/05 said, “Saddam would not comply.” (Comply to what? We are never told! But apparently whatever he did not comply to was important enough to start a war over but not important enough to ever explain to the world!)
    After a single question about the Downing Street Memo (with no follow up) was asked, (in between the questions about Africa - the American media suddenly discovered (…)

  • Something Rotten in Ohio
    10 June 2005 par (Open-Publishing)

    Outside the oil and gas junta that controls two and a half branches of our government (the half soon to be whole is the judiciary), there was a good deal of envy at the late British election among those Americans who are serious about politics. Little money was spent by the three parties and none for TV advertising. Results were achieved swiftly and cheaply. Best of all, the three party leaders were quizzed sharply and intelligently by ordinary citizens known quaintly as subjects, thanks to (…)

    It is not that often, we have to admit, that an item posted one night on Times Online is still getting hundreds of thousands of hits six weeks later, especially when what bloggers like to call ’the mainstream media’ have largely ignored its existence.
    NI_MPU(’middle’);But that is what happened to the now infamous secret Downing Street memo, posted on the site on May 1 alongside a story by Michael Smith of The Sunday Times. And if the document has taken on a life of its own it is largely (…)

    US Troops Cannot Stop Saddam-Friendly Clans In Triangle Of Death Edited By Rob Gibran June 05, 2005
    Attempts by 40,000 U.S. and Iraqi troops to close off Baghdad from armed groups is destined to fail, according to Iraqi sources, because of a series of roads loosely referred to as the "Mujahedeen Road."
