Blackfive brings us this sitrep from a Marine colonel serving in Afghanistan. Frankly, it doesn’t sound real good. I believe the “powers that be” would be wise to listen to him.
I’m doing as well as can be expected given the situation we have over here. It’s not good and we need to be […]

Walmart is not the only successful company to come under fire for its business practices. Starbucks is now under attack for its practices. My friend and fellow RMA member, Jonathan, has mounted a spirited defence of his employer. Please take the time to drop by Mangled Cat and see what he has to say.

Hmm… If one were so inclined, one could have a ton “O” fun with this picture. But, being the objective, restrained, wanna be journalist that I am, I’ll turn my back, walk away, and quietly chuckle under my breath. Looks like life as a dictator has gotten a whole lot easier these days. ‘Twas the […]

Michael Ledeen over at NRO puts his finger on the real question that needs to be answered by the Iraq Study Group.
Instead of trapping themselves in an imaginary quagmire, the commissioners can help us face the real war. What’s going on in Iraq is not “the war,” which is raging over the entire world. The […]

At the risk of being called sarcastic, let me state emphatically that it looks like the UN sanctions are a roaring success. As a matter of fact, the North Koreans are so petrified of the santions that have been placed on them, they’ve decided to test another nuclear device.

Fellow RMA member, Michael, asks himself, and by default, us, some incredibely difficult to answer questions. Here’s an example:
As a teacher, would I have had the courage to get as many kids out of the room as I could, and then refused to leave myself until all of the others got out safely?
Please read the whole piece. […]

Yesterday, President Chavez from Venezuela, by way of invitation from the UN, blistered President Bush and the United States in a rambling speech that covered everything from oil to religion. My question to you, gentle readers, is, what should our response to Chavez be? Should his rantings be considered as those iminating from a madman? Should we, as some have […]

Well, it looks as if Hugo wasn’t content to just blast President Bush at the UN. He felt it necessary to accept an invitation at Cooper Union, where he received a standing ovation for his remarks.
Chavez proclaimed himself “a friend” of the people of the United States, but said he hopes next time, they’ll choose, […]

 Once again, Carter has defied tradition and spoken out in opposition to the current President’s policies. Additionally, he’s insulted America’s strongest ally in the war against global Islamofascism.
But Mr Carter told Newsnight: “I have been really disappointed in the apparent subservience of the British government’s policies related to many of the serious mistakes that have been […]

I hesitate to give Keith Olbermann time and space on these pages. However, I think it’s real important that we be aware of the deranged thinking of those on the far left. There is so much off the wall, irrational thinking in his piece, that any attempt at a rational response on my part would just end up […]
