Statement on Memogate from RatherGate.com

Tuesday, January 11th, 2005

The guys over at Rathergate.com have issued a statement on the Memogate Report released yesterday. We at Rathergate are pleased that CBS News has taken action to remove four employees who had much to do with the now-infamous Sept. 8 “60 Minutes Wednesday� broadcast and the subsequent 12 days of stonewalling. The investigation by former [...]

A Victory in the War Against Spam

Tuesday, January 11th, 2005

Via Fox News: The Federal Trade Commission has shut down six companies it accused of sending X-rated e-mails in disguise and fraudulently charging recipients who joined sexually explict Web sites in its first legal case involving pornographic Internet spam. A federal judge on Jan. 5 granted the agency’s request for a restraining order against the [...]

Moon Over Green Bay

Tuesday, January 11th, 2005

Joe Buck really did not like Randy Moss’s attempt at humor after scoring his second touchdown on Sunday in Green Bay. If you missed it, Randy went to the goalpost and pretended to pull down his pants and moon the crowd. There is no question that this was tasteless, but if you listened to Joe [...]

The Report on Memogate Is Out

Tuesday, January 11th, 2005

Well, the report on Memogate is out, and this cartoon by Cox & Forkum is probably the most accurate and succinct comment I’ve seen on the matter:

Sorry for light posting…

Monday, January 10th, 2005

…but a convergence of the NFL Playoffs and the season premier of 24 have conspired to keep me busy and away from the keyboard. Normal posting should resume tomorrow. Meanwhile, you can’t go wrong by visiting the people listed on the right side of the blog in the Blogroll. Many of these blogs have wonderful [...]

And I Thought This Year’s Democrat Whiners Were Bad

Friday, January 7th, 2005

If you really want to observe a group of people who just can’t admit defeat, you need to go here. I mean, how sick in the head are these people? Don’t they have a life? It appears to me that the rank-and-file Democrats are being infiltrated by a lot of losers who will not accept [...]

The Truth About The United Nations

Friday, January 7th, 2005

Diplomad has managed to distill the truth about the United Nations into a few well-written paragraphs. An excerpt: They seemed more to be the progeny resulting from a mating between a mad oracle and a giant carrion-eater. They were akin to some sort of ancient mythical Greco-Roman-Aztec-Wes Craven-Egyptian-bird-god that demands constant sacrifice and feeding, and [...]

Liberal Thought Police At It Again

Thursday, January 6th, 2005

For as long as I can remember, liberals have laid claim that they are the most sensitive and respectful of diversity in all of its forms. Unfortunately, this axiom turns out to be one of those lies that they hope will become widely believed if they repeat it often enough. As further evidence of this, [...]

Ankle Biters Stall the Inevitable

Thursday, January 6th, 2005

Some Democrats in both the House and Senate are objecting to the Electoral College votes submitted by the State of Ohio today. The sum total effect that this will have on the selection of the next President is that a two hour debate in both the House chamber and the Senate chamber will take place, [...]

Virginia’s Governor’s Race

Thursday, January 6th, 2005

In 2005 there will only be two Governor’s races (in New Jersey and Virginia). John Behan over at Commonwealth Conservative gives his insights into the Virginia race here. Excerpt: The race for Governor is obviously the headline race, the campaign that wil be on the political marquee. In many ways, this race is going to [...]

Atheist At It Again

Thursday, January 6th, 2005

Everyone’s favorite atheist, Michael Newdow, is filing another lawsuit to have the Pledge of Allegiance ruled unconstitutional. This time, he has included other parents who actually have custody of their children to defeat the Supreme Court’s last decision which dismissed his case because he lacked grounds for filing the suit in the first place. Anyone [...]

Mark Cuban: Proof That Money Does Not Equal Smarts

Tuesday, January 4th, 2005

Apparently spending millions of dollars on a basketball team that always looses in the playoffs isn’t enough to keep billionaire Mark Cuban busy; now he has to foist his writings on us: It’s up to President Bush to set an example. How about it Mr. President? Can you take the first step? I can help [...]
