Why is it liberals tell me that mentioning Christmas in public might offend someone so I shouldn't do? Why is it when islamists kill innocent people in the name of their religion they say we should tolerate their beliefs?

Who said the following? Bush: You entered Iraq with lies, you will lose Iraq and lie about it and you will leave with the pretext that you have completed your mission. . . . America only has to decide on the number of (troops) it wishes to lose before withdrawing." Was it Pelosi? Dean? Kerry? Reed? Murtha?

Whether it's how much memory you are using, or how much disk space you have used, the Dark Glass Meters wi...

PARIS (Reuters) - France must draw the consequences of two weeks of riots and respond quickly to the problems raised by the rioters, President Jacques Chirac said on Thursday as a police chief warned of possible unrest in t...

WASHINGTON Media outlets throughout the world have reported Jimmy Massey's claims of war crimes, frequently without ever seeking to verify them. For instance, no one ever called any of the five journalists who were embedded with Massey's battalion to ask him or her about his claims. The Associated Press, which serves more than 8,500 newspaper, radio and television stations worldwide, wrote three stories about Massey, including an interview with him in October about his new book....

And they want to elect this idiots wife? Ex-president Bill Clinton is arguing that tighter immigration laws are hurting America, saying the new restrictions aren't worth it even if they stop the "one out of a zillion [foreigners] who might have a bomb."

I'm just wondering how long it will take before liberals start somehow blaming the islamic riots in France on Bush. I'm sure col can come up with a way we "offended" islam and that's why they are rioting.

Great article. It was the 11th night of rioting and attacks in and around Paris last night. Turn on almost any broadcast or cable newscast and you'll hear all about it. Thousands of busses and cars have been burned. Police are being shot at. Paramedics are being attacked. By who? By "youths." That's pretty much it. All of this trouble is being caused by "youths." Now that we've reached the 11th night of this violence, you will hear the occasional newscaster actually say the "M" wo...
