Military Burns Bibles on Afghan Base
They were in Pashto, so the conclusion was that their purpose was to help spread Christianity in the Muslim nation. Soldiers shouldn’t be proselytizing as part of their mission, but was it really necessary to burn the Bibles? Were there no churches or library that would accept free Pashto-language Bibles as part of their collection? [...]

Democrats Cancel Funding for Closing Gitmo
19. May 2009
There’s not much to this story, actually. Democrats don’t want to look weak on terror, and there’s no plausible facility to relocate murdering terrorists to while awaiting military trials. Also, most don’t look forward to explaining to their constituents why terrorists picked off the field in Afghanistan are being moved to their backyards. With debate [...]

So says the Telegraph: Foxx, who won a Best Actor Oscar for his portrayal of Ray Charles in the 2004 film Ray, reportedly considered to be “perfect” for the role.

Your Tax Dollars At Work: Funding Obama’s 2012 Campaign
18. May 2009
You’ll be pleased to know that your hard-earned tax dollars are going to the production of road signs that advertise how the Obama Administration is “putting America back to work”.

Obama and Netanyahu Meet, Accomplish Nothing
18. May 2009
Obama expressed the importance of dialogue and called Iran a grave threat (though not grave enough to avoid having brunch with), while Netanyahu stressed the importance of a Palestinian state and Palestinians actually recognizing the Jewish state. Translation: They wasted a few hours on a Monday morning. Fun fact out of the Middle East today: [...]

Al Gore Lies About Waiting to Hit Bush Administration
15. May 2009
Yet another Democratic pathological liar. Really, Goracle? You waited two years before hitting the Bush Administration? Too bad you invented the internet so we can actually research that claim. Contra Costa Times, 1/10/02: “While praising President Bush for his leadership in the war effort, he went on to say that the economy was another matter. [...]
Poll: More Americans Now Pro-Life Than Pro-Choice
15. May 2009
Would any other party moderates like to tell us once again how it’s pro-life and anti-gay marriage stances that are holding us back from winning elections? Not only are a majority of Americans opposed to recognizing gay marriage, but a majority now describe themselves as being pro-life. With the first pro-choice president in eight years [...]
