Mainstream Media: There Was No Crime

Apparently the mainstream press has been arguing in court that there was no crime committed with regards to the “outing” of Clown Wilson’s wife.
Why?
Because according to their amici brief she wasn’t undercover at all. Any cover that she ever had was blown by the Russians and then by the CIA several years before George […]

entitlement generation?

Being labeled is, perhaps, a rite of passage for every crop of twentysomethings. In their day, baby boomers were rabble-rousing hippies, and Gen Xers were apathetic slackers.
Now, deserved or not, this latest generation is being pegged, too — as one with shockingly high expectations for salary, job flexibility and duties but little willingness to take […]

Juan Manuel Fangio

Ten years ago today the greatest race car driver of all time, Juan Manuel Fangio, passed away at the age of 84. He won 5 Formula One championships and 22 out of the 51 races he participated in. Amazing.
I lived in his hometown of Balcarce, Argentina, back in 2001 and had the opportunity […]

Should Reporters Go to Jail?

Media Monitor - Should Reporters Go to Jail? - July 15, 2005
There’s been a lot of hand wringing about two journalists possibly going to jail for refusing to identify sources in the case involving the alleged “outing” of a CIA employee, Valerie Plame.

The White House was pressured into naming a special prosecutor to pursue the […]

Pfc. Stephen Tschiderer

A story from the front lines of Iraq that demonstrates, once again, that this is a war between the forces of good and evil. Thankfully the good guys are winning.
During a routine patrol in Baghdad June 2, Army Pfc. Stephen Tschiderer, a medic, was shot in the chest by an enemy sniper, hiding in a […]

A New Hope at Kos

When the Left’s morale building depends on a DailyKos contributor quoting a friend who has a friend who once covered Fitzgerald as an editor…wow, you know that there probably isn’t much to worry about.

Clown Wilson: My wife was NOT a clandestine officer…

At least not when her “cover was blown” by conservative columnist Bob Novak.
Straight from the Clown’s mouth:
BLITZER: But the other argument that’s been made against you is that you’ve sought to capitalize on this extravaganza, having that photo shoot with your wife, who was a clandestine officer of the CIA, and that you’ve tried to […]

Che Guevara - The Killing Machine

I really enjoyed The Motorcycle Diaries, a movie which chronicles the continental journey of the youthful Che Guevara and long time friend Alberto Granado across South America. It is, in essence, a collection of powerful vignettes from the trip: the injustice of poverty among mine workers in Chile, their experiences living in a leper […]

Clown Wilson

This may get me pulled into double-super-secret grand jury proceedings, but here it is, we’re going to out someone who hasn’t really been very covert as of late:
Joe Wilson is a clown.
Clown Wilson: My wife was NOT a clandestine officer…

Sunday night, March 20, 2005. The last moments of the last show. Carolines comedy club in New York City was packed — table after table of devoted fans, jealous rivals, and even a few […]

The Military vs. The Media

I’m guessing it has been mentioned elsewhere, but I find it fascinating the difference between the oft-vilified military and the “we uphold your freedoms” media.
With all the noise recently regarding the Plame leaks, it has made me think: military men and women are willing to give their lives for higher ideals; the media (with the […]

lessons from london, 7/7/05: it’s us, not them

you’ll have to excuse my sarcasm, but when is this a good (or even marginally called-for) reaction to the terrorist bombings in great britain? how about at least calling for indictments or offering therapy for our attackers? ahh…anyway, the choice quotes follow, along with my sarcastic responses:

what success are we having in the […]
