From the Wall Street Journal : Dick Cheney is not the most popular of politicians, but when he offered a harsh assessment of the Obama Administration's approach to terrorism last May, his criticism stung—so much that the President gave a speech the same day that was widely seen as a direct response. Though neither man would admit it, eight months later political and security realities are forcing...

As a long time resident of the Puget Sound I am always especially annoyed by Robin Hordon , who insists he is an expert on the events of 9/11 based on the merits of having been an air traffic controller 30 years ago. Now he is getting even more bizarre though, with this long rambling " affidavit " filed to support April Gallop's quixotic lawsuit against Dick Cheney et al . There is no way...

It was his word against their's this afternoon as Jack Straw used his second, re-call, appearance before the Iraq Inquiry to rebuff courteously claims made by other witnesses. Was Clare Short jeered and silenced when she tried to question military action? Not according to Mr Straw, it was "simply untrue" to say cabinet government had broken down "these were not wilting violets"....

From GITMO to the KSM trial in NY City to the handling of the "underwear bomber", it looks more and more that the Obama administration is disconnected from reality. The public is not buying the "soft approach" to terrorism. We saw that in Massachusetts where Scott Brown beat up the Obama administration over "terrorist rights". Today, the WSJ has a great editorial: "As...

Pennsylvania Congressman John Murtha, the old soldier who looked like and in so many ways was a member of the Democratic establishment of another time, broke with the leadership of his own party and the opposition Republicans at a critical point in 2005 and said it was time to bring the troops home from Iraq. Murtha was a gruff warrior, with too many ties to defense-industry lobbyists and Pentagon...

One of the best moments from the Sunday shows was the slam at Republicans for playing politics with terrorism and national security: Deputy national security adviser John Brennan complained Sunday that politicians, many of them Republicans, were unfairly criticizing the administration for partisan purposes and second-guessing the case with a "500-mile screwdriver" that reaches from Washington...

The last politician to quote Pat Buchanan was Richard Nixon when Pat was penning speeches in a back room of the West Wing, but he didn’t give him credit — at least not in public. Sarah Palin has no hesitation giving credit where credit is due, however: WALLACE: I know that three years is an eternity in politics. But how hard do you think President Obama will be to defeat in 2012? PALIN:...

Scott Shock Silver Source Northwest Dear Mr Shock , As a fellow Republican activist and Teabagger-American, I support your efforts to replace the Federal Reserve's phony paper specie with real, honest-to-God silver. I'm particularly impressed with the quality of the silver coins you're introducing into our economy. Your George Bush and Dick Cheney "neocoins" are superb, and every Patriot-American...
