Posting at Randi Rhodes' Air Scamerica online forum, an "activist" reports that Cindy Sheehan is beginning to wonder if she and the other protesters will be "killed" while holding vigil at the President's ranch in Texas -- and she would...

Chad Schuldt pulls off another partisan-based lie. This one is about Cindy Sheehan:The most important fact in the story is that Sheehan lost her son in the war last spring. She has been rebuffed by the President and there have...

Even Babies Aren't Exempt From 'No-Fly' List

Infants have been stopped from boarding planes at airports throughout the United States because their names are the same as or similar to those of possible terrorists on the government's "no-fly" list.

Bureaucratic bulls--t baffles brains once again. And the TSA is supposed to make us more safe? NOT!

It sounds like a joke, but it's not funny to parents who miss flights while scrambling to have babies' passports and other documents faxed.

Not only does it SOUND like a joke - it, er rather the TSA is a very bad joke.

A few weeks ago I questioned the media coverage of the events in Iraq. Now there is this item noted by Media Blog at NRO: Mark Finkelstein over at Newsbusters reported this morning that Matt Lauer got a surprise answer...

Dodge/Chrysler recently pitched a ?What Can You HEMI?? competition, a design challenge to see what sort of inventive creations could be made from one of the company's HEMI motors. And the winner is... The HEMI- Powered 345 horsepower, 5.7-Liter V8...

Private Company Plans Tour Around the Moon

Space Adventures, a company based in Arlington, Va., has already sent two tourists into orbit. Today, it is to unveil an agreement with Russian space officials to send two passengers on a voyage lasting 10 to 21 days, depending partly on its itinerary and whether it includes the International Space Station. A roundtrip ticket will cost $100 million. The space-faring tourists will travel with a Russian pilot. They will steer clear of the greater technical challenge of landing on the Moon, instead circling it and returning to Earth.

The Chief has to like this one, big time. Anything that extends our presence in space is a positive - and this will reinforce the moves for NASA to re-extend itself in the direction of lunar basing.

Granted there's not any new technology in this, but what of it? Columbus, and those who came after him didn't use "new technology" either to explore and settle a "new world".

Durbin offered proof of column

Senator Dick "Turban" Durbin (Donk - IL) got himself stuck in the waffle iron, while trying to backpedal after applying a de-facto religious test to the nomination of Judge Roberts to the SCOTUS.

A law professor who used Senate Minority Whip Richard J. Durbin as a source for a column last month about federal Judge John G. Roberts Jr. -- a column that Mr. Durbin later disputed -- has a taped phone message that he says proves the accuracy of his reporting.

Damn! Pesky factual evidence of weasels at work! How's a Donk politicial supposed to do his thing when someone holds him (or her) to the facts!

In an Aug. 4 letter to Mr. Durbin, Mr. Turley laid out his detailed recollection of the situation and quoted extensively from a taped telephone message from Mr. Shoemaker. "While speculation continues as to what was said in your meeting, I wanted to establish that everything said in my article was taken directly from my notes, confirmed by your staff, and never questioned on any point on accuracy," Mr. Turley wrote. "I stayed out of this controversy for over two weeks as your staff has insisted that the account was inaccurate. However, it is grossly unfair to present this matter as an error on our part when we specifically confirmed the account with your staff and never heard a single objection on accuracy until the story ran."

What? A Donk Senator waffling? Anyone got some syrup?

I think Jonah Goldberg gets it about right on this Cindy Sheehan stuff:Without getting into all the sub-arguments about Cindy Sheehan, I think she's a great example of the opportunism of partisanship. There's simply no way that establishment liberals would...
