Moore the bore

Posted on May 19, 2008 | Comments Off on Moore the bore

Fatso Michael Moore, the unethical cretin who ripped off a classic science fiction novel for the title of his fictional political screed on President Bush, is ripping off Michael Yon’s classic Iraq photo for Moore’s latest pathetic whatever. Yon’s lawyer is on the case. Go get ’em!

Maybe Mahmoud ain’t so mad

Posted on May 17, 2008 | Comments Off on Maybe Mahmoud ain’t so mad

Afterall, he’s getting away with murder in Iraq, and the Bush administration and Congress ain’t doing nothin’, while Barry talks about a sit-down to understand Mahmoud’s pain.

UPDATE: So, when Bush does the only thing he ever does about this matter, i.e. talk, he manages to enrage Barry, Hilarity, Nancy, etc. For why? Because they won’t do anything, either, and don’t like to be reminded. Such unanimity.

Moment of Truth in Iraq

Posted on May 16, 2008 | Comments Off on Moment of Truth in Iraq

I was waiting for a good moment to buy Michael Yon’s book about Iraq, and Michael Totten’s revealing review is the one. The fact that the book is already in its second printing and currently No. 167 on Amazon’s bestseller list also is encouraging.

MORE: Cobb has an interesting take on it, from quotes from Yon’s changed-his-mind-on-Iraq publisher, to Cobb’s angry responses to some commenters. As he says: lead, follow or get the hell out of the way.

The 9/11 generation keeps it up

Good news from the recruiters: "All military services met or exceeded their monthly recruiting goals in April, with the Marine Corps signing 142 percent of the number it was looking for, the Pentagon said."

Mission Accomplished

Posted on May 7, 2008 | Comments Off on Mission Accomplished

The (in)famous banner, subject of so many lies (which some of the commenters here repeat) and MSM sneers since 2004, was created for and addressed to the crew of the USS Abraham Lincoln only, according to one who was there. Of course if "CVN 72" had been added to it in the first place, there’d have been no confusion possible.

Very nice, indeed

Posted on May 4, 2008 | Comments Off on Very nice, indeed

President Bush is basically a nice guy, which he proved more than once when he was governor of Texas. Which, of course, is way too nice for the rude, undereducated, overmedicated slugs of the MSM. So it’s always a pleasure to see it when he cuts loose on a supercilious one with both barrels.

Time magazine once again proves why I was wise to stop subscribing to and reading it years ago.
