In honor of full disclosure

November 18th, 2007 · 8 Comments

How CNN can lecture candidates on full disclosure when they can’t adhere to it themselves is astonishing. It seems CNN thinks we’re all ignorant.

The Media Shield law

November 14th, 2007 · 4 Comments

Every couple years, the media, particularly newspapers, get in a huff saying there needs to be a law to protect them against prosecution for hiding sources who do things like, say, leak sensitive information related to our national security. The NY Times, in particular likes to leak potentially damaging information. Once upon a time, we [...]

November 14th, 2007 · 11 Comments

Looks like ole’ Steamroller has seen the error of his ways. With a majority of New Yorkers against his “drive” to give illegals drivers’ licenses, he’s retracted.

November 13th, 2007 · 4 Comments

On Veteran’s Day, I was browsing a technology site when I came across an article about Congress introducing legislation that would end financial aid to colleges who refuse to try to curb piracy.

A statistical breakdown of our Presidents

November 11th, 2007 · 2 Comments

As the United States stands today, there is no race more important than next year’s Presidential campaign. The next President will oversee the budget explosion as the baby boomers retire, must create a firm national security plan in the face of an open border, a Middle East facing a state of turmoil, especially if we [...]
