Senator Richard 'Turbin' Durbin smears our military
Senator Richard Durbin (D-IL) compared the treatment of detainees at Guantanimo Bay to the Nazi torture of prisoners during WWII. On the floor of the Senate, he referenced an FBI memo as his evidence. We are demanding he produce the evidence for all to see. You can help by adding your name to the petition here.
Laura Ingraham Announces She Has Breast Cancer
Our friend and committed conservative voice, Laura Ingraham, announced she has been diagnosed with breast cancer. The good news is she caught it in plenty of time to expect a full recovery. It had not spread to her lymph system.
Please take a moment to go to her "Get Well" Book and send your get well wishes.
But Monkeys . . . .!
Yes, that's true, But . . . .!
How many times have you heard those words? It's a clumsy attempt to avoid answering obvious questions. Here's an example of how John Kerry uses the tactic in his bid to be president.
Was he wearing his own decorations?

Jumping to Conclusions
Mr. Fred Kaplan of Slate Magazine says yes! He makes the case that the Bush Administration acted just like hawks during the 1950's missile-gap debate. Was the case overstated now as then? Or are liberals just jumping to conclusions?
Presidential Politics: Was President Bush's carrier visit just an expensive photo op?

The anti-war view. What is it?
Over this past Presidents' Day Holiday, the anti-war movement expressed their views in marches and rallies. To their credit, most demonstrators conducted themselves peacefully. Let's examine some of their arguments and search for common ground.
If you have another opinion or point of view, we would be glad to hear it. You can rate this article or write a letter to the webmaster. We'll be glad to publish your thoughts.
Let's Examine the European Opinions on War with Iraq.
If ignorance is bliss, then the Europeans must live in nirvana. Let's ask ourselves why Europeans refuse to believe Iraq is a problem while accusing America of all types of evil.
OUR FICKLE CONGRESS
Before President Bush, the Congress seemed eager to settle the security problems in Iraq. Now that President Bush is in office, they seem to have had second thoughts. In A FICKLE HISTORY OF OUR CONGRESS AND IRAQ, we look at the change in Congressional attitude toward war and security.
