HeadOn--apply directly to the forehead. HeadOn--apply directly to the forehead. HeadOn--apply directly to the forehead. I would just love to go to every store where it's sold and destroy their stock. I think they make the commercial so annoying that you actually get a headache and feel compelled to buy their product to cure it. Then they have: Activon--apply directly where it hurts. and Freedom from Hemmorhoids? FREEdHEM hemmorhoidal cream. Freedom from Hemmorhoids? F...

New Page 1 Now that Haditha has been brought back into the news with the defamation lawsuit filed by one of the Marines against Rep. Murtha, I noticed something today that I didn't notice before.  The footage of the dead bodies comes from the Hammurabi Human Rights organization.  All other aspects of this case aside, is anyone else struck by the irony?  Hammurabi and Human Rights in the same title ?

July 27, 2006 Fitzgerald: Why are we in Iraq? "When my children ask me why their dad is over in Iraq and he can't be here with us. I want to give them an educated honest answer. I have found that history is the most logical answer and the only truth I can find on this subject. Then I ran out of answers and all I could say was 'I don't know anymore.' I believed all the propaganda. But I figured that I would set forth the effort to get to know the Jihad and the Koran to have some logic a...

What’s Wrong With the Democrats? The identity-politics party doesn’t know how to appeal to middle Americans. by Steve Sailer Why have the Democrats proven so inept at electorally exploiting the growing evidence of the current Republican Party’s incompetence at governing? The Democrats certainly have a chance of doing well in the November elections, but why is this merely a possibility? In 1980, just half a dozen years after the GOP’s Watergate humiliation, voters responde...

Bad News/Good News from Iraq The death of Zarqawi has done very little, if anything, to stop the violence in Iraq. A more promising note: attacks on the Iraqi oil pipelines have been non-existent as of late.

War on Christmas The hot button issue this time of year is the use of "Happy Holidays" as opposed to "Merry Christmas." This passage here sums up exactly what so many American Christians feel and why: Fifty years ago no Christian would have taken offense to “Happy Holidays”. Now that many Christians do is not, as our shocked liberals believe, a vicious political radicalism infecting the right-wing wackos – rather is it that the meaning of “Happy Holidays” has changed. It still d...

Ramsey Clark was on TV yesterday complaining about how Saddam Hussein was not going to get a fair trial. Then a thought popped into my mind. I have a srong feeling I'd be ecstatic if I woke up Christmas morning to hear that the bastard who created International ANSWER and infected the rest of the world with it was assassinated just like another member of Saddams defense team was. That's pretty bad, isn't it?

Good article here by Steve Sailer. Click here for link By Steve Sailer James Fallow's Atlantic report on the failure of our vaunted "training" efforts in Iraq is online . The article focuses more on the poor job we've done in training Iraqis, rather than the notable lack of effort the Iraqis have made to get trained. It took the U.S. only about 15 months after the declaration of war in 1917 to reach the point where we could hold our own against the Germans on the Western Fr...

by Lawrence Auster: I have always dismissed the idea of our simply pulling out of Iraq without a fully worked out plan for how we would carry on the war against our jihadist enemies after we pulled out. But an official communiqué issued by representatives of Iraq’s three main groups has me thinking for the first time that that’s what we ought to do. Meeting in Cairo to negotiate a reconciliation conference of Iraq’s Shi’ites, Kurds, and Sunnis, the leaders, who included Iraq’s presi...

http://www.amnation.com/vfr/archives/004464.html Friends have sometimes criticized me for my relentless criticisms of the neoconservatives on the Islam issue, when, after all, the neocons are on the same side of the Islam issue as we are. But that, I reply to my friends, is the very question, isn’t it? My main gripe with the neocons is that by making so much noise about opposing expansive and militant Islam, they give their conservative readers the reassuring impression that the problem...
