MIA

2007-05-21T11:25:29Z

So I've been a bit MIA lately. I have no excuses. Shame, shame. Basically, most of my time online anymore is spent on my writing, and frankly, I haven't come across much in the news that's fired me up politically. I'll say this much, it is much e...

The Blair Legacy

2007-05-10T02:42:08Z

Now that Blair is expected to step down around the end of June, questions about his legacy already floating around the political climate for months will now have ro be taken seriously and analyzed. I don't expect him to be fully understood or fai...

You Have Got to Be Kidding Me

2007-05-04T21:41:04Z

It would be pointless of me to express outrage over this, because I would hope that it's obvious that selling guns to suspected terrorists is not a good idea. Now, I fully understand that most terrorists are not going to go through legal channels ...

More Pre-War Hand Wringing

2007-04-28T19:09:32Z

I wonder: copout or mere statement of fact? I suspect that Senator Durbin is trying to have it both ways with regard to pre-war intelligence, but I highly doubt he actually knew it was faulty at the time. If he knew that it was, and that the Unit...

QotD: Ms. President

2007-04-19T20:47:42Z

Is it likely that the U.S. will have a female president in the near future? In your lifetime? Why? Yes, but I for one would hope it is not Hillary Clinton. That, of course, is a well-known fact, so I'll focus on the questions at hand. Some hav...

Perspective

2007-04-12T19:25:50Z

Though I do not agree with each of its conclusions, I find this article very interesting. I do believe we face unprecedented challenges, mostly with regard to terrorism and our shrinking world, but I suspect that much of the article is quite accur...

Can McCain Win?

2007-04-06T19:39:22Z

Perhaps the most effective point this article makes is it's last, that the first votes of the upcoming election are 9 months away. Anything can happen from now until then, McCain pulling ahead included. He's still my favorite Republican (probably ...

Yes or No: Can Rudy Win?

2007-03-28T20:51:11Z

He's leading by double digits in the polls for the GOP nomination. He holds a somewhat mythical status in the minds of many Americans. On paper, he'd be a lock. But each time his sometimes interesting personal life is mentioned as his biggest lia...

Kerry on The Daily Show

2007-03-27T21:08:33Z

Could someone please explain to me why losing an election instantly makes a man's sense of humor improve? Does anyone remember Kerry's '04 Daily Show appearance and how different it was from this? My, how much more likeable these guys are when th...
