New Whistleblower Claims Illegal NSA and DIA Conduct

As I noted on Tuesday, James Risen, the author of the New York Times leak of classified information about the attempt to prevent another terror attack on our soil, considers whoever leaked the information to be a whistleblower. Well, we have another whistleblower. Russ Tice, a former National... Sign in to see full entry.

The Lamestream News Media Destroys Its Remaining Credibility

We all know the story. Last night, around midnight, it was breathlessly announced in the news that twelve of the miners in West Virginia had been found alive. Three hours later, the exact opposite was announced as fact. The families of the miners had been filled with joy at their impending rescue,... Sign in to see full entry.

Author of NY Times Surveillance Leak Story Shows His Ignorance

James Risen, author of the recent New York Times article that contained leaked classified information about the government’s surveillance program of phone calls to and from known terrorist phone numbers outside the U. S. (which, by the way, preceded publication of his book on the war by ten days)... Sign in to see full entry.

It’s About Time! Bush Administration Orders Investigation of Leaks

It was announced today that the Bush Administration has authorized the Justice Department to investigate the leaking of classified information about surveillance of suspected terrorists.

YOUR MINIMUM CREDIT CARD PAYMENT IS ABOUT TO DOUBLE

If this hasn’t happened to you yet, take heart and be of good cheer, it will very soon. Surprised? I was. I heard about this for the first time today, even though this goes back over two years and even though I make every effort to keep up on the news. It started when, in January 2003 (that’s right,...

Daschle: Congress Never Intended President to Use War Powers Domestically

This one got shoved to the back burner by the political incorrectness of Christmas, so now here with that done here goes. Former Senate majority leader Tom On-Dasher – oops, Daschle – has become the latest Democrat to make a jackass out of himself concerning the war on terrorism. Thursday, December...

The Scorning of Christmas: Raising Up a Nation of Scrooges

It’s been a few years since you’ve heard from me. I’m the Ghost of Christmas Scorned. I used to haunt one Ebenezer Scrooge, until my relatives Past, Present and Yet to Come (we call him or her – we never have figured out which exactly – YTC for short) reformed him and tossed me out of his life....

Bush Spying Program is Legally Justified

Yesterday we explored the precedents for President Bush’s secret surveillance of terrorism suspects within the United States. Tonight, with the help of one John Schmidt, we’ll look at the legal basis for it. (Who’s John Schmidt? So glad you asked. Mr. Schmidt was Bubba’s associate attorney general...

Bush’s Secret Spying Has a Surprising Precedent!

The far left is carrying on about the President’s authorizing surveillance without warrants of the international communications of terrorism suspects as if it is some sort of unprecedented abomination being visited upon the civil liberties of every American. I’ve already dealt with the notion that... Sign in to see full entry.

Whining Harry Reid: We killed the Patriot Act, and I’m proud of it!

Unlike the lamestream news media, I will freely admit that this is not an exact quote. His exact words, spoken to a party gathering just after the Senate vote: “ Think of what happened 20 minutes ago in the United States Senate. We killed the Patriot Act.” Okay, Harry, let’s think about what... Sign in to see full entry.

About this Blog

In the classic Star Trek episode, The Omega Glory, a primitive people called the Yangs is at war with the ruling government. As the episode progresses, the Yang war drums are heard in increasing volume in the distance until the Yangs finally invade the government city and defeat their oppressors. Their victory won, the Yang chieftain utters a resounding phrase, “That which was ours is ours again!” This blog is now a war drum. I add it to the growing chorus of drums beating in the hills around the city of Washington DC. I do not advocate a revolution of violence and war. But I am joining others in beating our war drums for a peaceful and sweeping revolution at the polls starting in November 2010. This revolution will restore conservatives to power, and that which was ours – liberty, prosperity, restrained government, the rule of law, and personal responsibility - shall be ours again.
