New Iraq Study Claims 1 Million Iraqis Killed
Do these people just pull numbers out of the air? Throw a dart or spin a wheel maybe? The Lancet Study, which was debunked as way too high, claimed 600,000. This one claims a million. Taking it at face value, HuffPo is already touting this as proof of some kind of American genocide that we’re [...]

Mark Levin Calls Conservatives to Arms, Rally Around Mitt
31. January 2008
Damning piece via Bryan. Hard to dispute. As for McCain “the straight-talker,” how can anyone explain his abrupt about-face on two of his signature issues: immigration and tax cuts?

SuperBlogging Super Tuesday
30. January 2008
I’m going to be live-blogging Super Tuesday (February 5th) just as a I live-blogged the Florida Primary.
