Sen. Clinton criticized President Bush’s homeland security efforts, calling them a “myth.” She then had the audacity to tell her audience,
“The truth is we are not prepared, we are not supporting our first responders, and our approach to securing our nation is haphazard at best. Somewhere along the line, we lost our […]
The U.S. may use nukes in a war with Iraq. It’s good no one’s taken that option off the table. War critics will look to this as more proof that President Bush is a maniac, but it’s good strategy. Chances are slim we would use them, but if the enemy thinks there’s […]
I choose Freidrich over Salma too. It just proves I’m an econ geek, but I know which one I’d rather see in a swimsuit.

France, Germany, Russia, China, and Kofi Annan want inspectors to continue inspecting when they all know Iraq is hindering their efforts. All sides of the war argument agree that Iraq isn’t serious about disarming. So, what should be done? In last year’s resolution, the Security Council said there would be serious consequences […]

Tampa won the Super Bowl. From watching the game (I gave up after Oakland’s first series of the second half) and looking at the final score, they certainly were the better team. Their defense completely shut down the vaunted Rich Gannon passing machine. All those three-and-outs forced the Oakland Raiders defense to […]

Fredrick Norman links to a letter signed by a number of economists and policy wonks backing President Bush’s tax plan. The signers don’t claim that restraining federal spending, pushing up previous tax reductions, and ending the dividend tax will immediately jump start the economy. In general, these thinkers want to end government polices […]
The Guardian is reporting that war is imminent. President Bush will make that clear in next week’s State of the Union speech.
Advantage: Den Beste.

A few days ago, Glenn Reynolds commented on Roe v. Wade and limited government. By using the actual text of the constitution, he argued that Congress couldn’t ban abortion. Some things aren’t “necessarily fit subjects for federal regulation.”
What Reynolds hasn’t done is decide if Roe should be overturned. My guess is he […]
Forget France and Germany who have sacrificed NATO for Saddam. Forget the U.N. where many members would like the weapons inspectors to give Iraq an eternity for it to prove they’ve disarmed. Forget anti-war protestors who hate Saddam’s tyrannical regime but hate American power more (and allied themselves with the Communist International A.N.S.W.E.R.). […]

Today marked the 30 anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion and made abortion a federal issue. Over 40 million children have been sacrificed just so no woman has to endure a “back alley” abortion or self-mutilation. I’m pretty sure that in the pre-Roe days 1.3 million women […]
A judge correctly threw out a lawsuit against McDonald’s claiming the company was responsible for obesity in two children. In his ruling, Judge Robert Sweet wrote,
Where should the line be drawn between an individual’s own responsibility to take care of herself and society’s responsibility to ensure others shield her? The complaint fails to allege […]
