The first part or RomanVenable wanted me to post a link to an article published in June 17, 2000 by the New York Times titled "Texas Executions: GW Bush Has Defined Himself, Unforgettably, As Shallow And Callous".

It covers Texas' record on the execution of 131 prisoners during his time as governor...

Was Kerry's Discharge Other Than Honorable?

A New York Sun article argues that Kerry's military discharge was other than honorable, and that this is the real reason Kerry won't sign a standard form 180 to release all of his military records.

Are we making more terrorists?

Are we making more terrorists? Beldar's Blog handles answering the argument better than I ever could.

"Radical Islamic extremists are not like poison ivy — "don't scratch it, it'll only get worse!" The necessary premise of this argument is, "If we'd only — (choose one or more) — (a) let them alone, (b) treat them with due respect, (c) allow them to drive Israel into the sea, then they wouldn't keep flying airplanes into our buildings, blowing up school busses, kidnapping and beheading civilians, etc."

"These folks won't be happy until my two daughters are in burqas and they and I together are under the watchful eyes of thought-and-conduct police who'll correct any deviation from their approved path. They won't be happy until our civilization is destroyed and replaced with one that they've dictated."

Before you vote, please go read the rest of his essay.

And that, ladies and gentleman, is the single most important reason I am voting for George W. Bush on Tuesday despite, to quote George F. Will's column today,

...[George W. Bush's] passivity about spending (he has vetoed nothing), his enlargement of the welfare state (the prescription drug entitlement), his expansion of inappropriate federal responsibilities (concerning education grades K-12, through No Child Left Behind) and his complicity in vandalizing the Constitution (he signed the McCain-Feingold bill that rations political speech).

Polling Point is doing a 2004 Media Bias Study. If you have an opinion on the job the mainstream news anchors are doing, why not take a few minutes and give them your opinion...and enter a drawing for a mini iPod Mini at the same time?!

Did Kerry Cheat in First Debate?

Mon, 04 Oct 2004 01:55:12 GMT

"No props, notes, charts, diagrams, or other writings or other tangible things may be brought into the debate by any candidate." So states the memorandum of understanding between the two campaigns regarding the debates. Yet, this video shows John Kerry taking something out of his pocket at the beginning of the debate and placing it on his lectern. Please explain, Mr. Kerry. Perhaps it was a picture of Teresa to inspire you?
