In Romance with USA, Americans Play Hard to Get:
<snip>
In fact, it’s difficult to know just what Americans do approve of. Only 39% of Americans have a favorable opinion of the Supreme Court, which means that the public disapproves of all three branches of government.
And the media? It turns out that Americans like (and trust) those [...]

Who Hates Our Freedom?:
Musharraf’s Pakistan apparently:
For the vast majority of humans, terror comes in more mundane ways - like the violent hands that woke Dr. Shazia Khalid as she lay sleeping in her bed, and the abuse she’s suffered at the hands of Mr. Musharraf’s government ever since.

The cynical Bush claim to be working for [...]

Rosy Rhetoric Revisited:
Because it has been more than two years since the original invasion of Iraq, much of the American public has forgotten how easy Bush administration officials predicted the occupation of Iraq would be. The Washington Post reports the hard truth:

This is the problem with so called progressives. They don’t oppose the [...]

Roberts Was Prominent Member of Federalist Society:
John Roberts and the White House are still refusing to explain why Roberts first denied having ties to the right-wing Federalist Society.

(Via Think Progress.)
Right wing? I think not. Go take a look for yourself.
Main points:
1. Interpreting the law as it is, not as they think it should be.
2. Upholding [...]

I don’t blog about Democratic party or so called liberal blogs. They aren’t saying anything worth commenting on. I subscribe to several, but for the life of me, I can’t find anything they write that’s worth commenting on. It’s all irrelevant to me or so extremely trivial I don’t care. I’m pretty sure that they [...]

Originalism Defined:
An e-mail from Barbara Ledeen:

Our Veterans Deserve Better:
[...]
The money problems are evident to most of us reading the DFA blog and even to those who visit VA clinics and medical facilities. Clinics across America are closing, appointments are delayed, veterans are being charged more for their care, and they are being denied coverage of non-combat related injuries and medical [...]

Putting His Money Where His Mouth Is:
<…>
Let this show just how serious progressives are about national security – even while believing, as many left-of-center Americans and a growing number of responsible conservatives do, that the Bush administration has thoroughly bungled it. Whatever your political stripe, the willingness to sacrifice – far more than blowhard attempts [...]

Time for some more political commentary. One more from Amy Ridenour. I really love reading her. Also, for the record, I don’t often comment on so called progressive or liberal or democratic weblog posts because they are just so far gone I can’t even begin to say how they’re wrong. I’ll try, though. Look for [...]

Star Parker has an interesting insight based on personal experience.
COMMENTARY — Values Must Define The Day:
I have lived in Southern California for many years and am a veteran of the 1992 riots in South Central Los Angeles, provoked by the Rodney King affair. My own business was destroyed in those riots and, as a result, [...]
