Free kibbles

Americans capture 7/7 mastermind entering Iraq from Iran.

Turkish Army threatens to protect secular government from Turkey's ruling party.

Bombs in Iraq and Pakistan. These terrorists hate life and civilization. We need to destroy them everywhere they are, and most of them are in Iraq right now. Surrendering Iraq to Muslim extremists is out of the question. Australian PM Howard says the Democrat retreat and defeat bill aids al Qaeda.

Senior Iraqi officials warn Prince Harry not to serve in Iraq.

Free speech victory in Washington state.

Analysis of the FCC's report recommending Congress regulate violence on TV.

Senator Webb's aid is above the law - prosecutor drops weapon charge.

How much is a life worth?

Sex magazines and the censors.

EU demands laws to change livestock feeding to cut greenhouse gases.

Bill requiring waiting period and ultrasound before abortion passes Florida House.

Scientists simulate half a mouse brain. It won't be long until they can simulate a human brain, which means they'll be able to download human brain information into simulations. There will be ethical discussions, but they won't slow down the technology.

Author blames Bush for partisanship. Give me a break. Harry Reid doesn't really think the War in Iraq is lost. He's just trying to make it so because he mistakenly thinks that Democrats will gain political advantage.

10 supposed differences between conservatives and liberals. Except for a couple of them, it's more like libertarians versus liberals. It describes liberals very well, but conservatives have proven that aren't nearly as libertarian as they like to pretend.

Charles Krauthammer on Boris Yeltsin.

More than 1 million American men are unknowingly raising kids that aren't theirs.

The ironic perception or our actions in the Middle East.

Pat Buchanan says Democrats are in danger of owning defeat in Iraq. I think they already took part ownership of it with the timetable bill.

Article based on interview with Gen. Petraeus. Surely the Iraqi government won't take a 2 month break. That would be outrageous. If they do, we should seriously consider pulling out. Bush should threaten to pullout if they take a break to kill any thoughts of it.

A corporate carbon tax is a horrible idea. Companies are already leaving America to get away from our income tax burden, and this will drive them away even faster. The tax will increase the cost of entry into business which will hurt small companies most and reduce competition. Companies that stay will pass on the higher prices to consumers, hurting the economy, putting people out of work and reduce disposable income for investment. And the carbon consumption will continue unabated elsewhere while Americans suffer.

Sen. Dick Durbin (D-Illinois) says that Bush's intelligence case for war in Iraq differed from Senate Intelligence Committee information before the war. Why didn't Durbin make a big deal out of it back then like he is now? Maybe because he's full of it. Other Democrats on the same committee disagree with him. Intelligence is never certain (and the slam dunk comment was idiotic), but the President better be prepared to deal with worst case, and after 9/11, the whole country felt the same way.
