Audacity of Truth
Whiner-in-Chief:
"[W]hether the grumbling is about Republicans on Fox or bloggers in pajamas, there's a word for what the president and his aides are doing. That word is "whining." And nothing [...] does more damage to Obama's credibility or authority than the sense that a popular president is becoming the whiner-in-chief."

International aid for Katrina – some thoughts
.!.
Earlier today, I posted a message asking for info on what people had heard about any international relief efforts that may be underway in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina.
Since then, I’ve been reading some posts both in the blogosphere and message boards which are discussing whether or not the international community will offer assistance to the [...]
Great job, Mr. Prez
Very well delivered, strong, potent speech. I’m glad he made it. The need to shore up support here at home and to reassure the troops was extremely crucial. Doubtful it will calm the usual suspects but nevertheless I think he said what needed to be said: There will be [...]
Terrorism then and now
.!.

Yesterday I blogged about what, according to some news accounts, is the fastest propagating virus in history: the Zotob worm. Well, I just read a message from Jim over at bRight and Early where he talked about the fact that the company he worked for was one of the many infected [...]
Light blogging

Sorry guys … last couple of days has seen me too busy to blog much. Today will likely be the same. I’ll return to regular blogging either this evening or tomorrow.
Take back the 9-11 Memorial
I could say more but Cavalier X pretty much sums it up for me. Make sure to read the whole thing.
6/25/05 UPDATE: Gov. Pataki seems to have the situation covered. Bravo!
Dems just keep stepping in it
Rangel has compared Iraq to the Holocaust. Kennedy has compared the Abu Ghraib incidents with the slaughter of hundreds of thousands under the rule of Saddam Hussein. Amnesty International said Guatanamo Bay is a modern day gulag. Now, there’s Senator Dick Durbin (emphasis added by me – link opens as a PDF [...]
How are you feeling now, tough guy?
.!.
(To commemorate the anniversary of the fall of Baghdad – sorry, I’m a little late). Thanks to our fighting forces, the coalition, and the Iraqis who’ve fought along side them.

Latest postings from Michael Yon
.!.
He’s got up two new posts, and here are the direct links to them:
The Battle For Mosul IV (a must read!)
The Embed (well, ok – this one is a must read, too!
Yes, words DO have meaning
This is a big pet peeve of mine: changing the meaning of a word via faulty comparisons so much that the true meaning of the word gets diluted. An example, to me, would be of comparisons of Bush or Clinton to Hitler. Neither are remotely close the being like the worst dictator [...]
