Scalia On Bush v. Gore: Get Over It!

"The principal issue in the case, whether the scheme that the Florida Supreme Court had put together violated the federal Constitution, that wasn’t even close. The vote was seven to two," he says, referring to the Supreme Court’s decision that the Supreme Court of Florida’s method for recounting ballots was unconstitutional.

IBDeditorials.com: Editorials, Political Cartoons, and Polls from Investor's Business Daily -- Starving The Poor By Pandering To Big Ag: "We can and must stop the madness of ethanol at any cost. It is a pernicious fraud driven by naked, subsidy-fattened corporate greed that's good at staying in the shadows."

Bio-Foolishness - WSJ.com: "Poverty, famine and violence are among the supposed products of global warming in the future. Yet these calamities are with us today thanks to a key element of 'green' policy, biofuels. This feel-good measure is becoming a real-world disaster."

Robert Downey Jr. in Parade Magazine

Parade Magazine on Yahoo! News: "'I used to be so convinced that happiness was the goal,' Downey says, 'yet all those years I was chasing after it, I was unhappy in the pursuit. Maybe the goal really should be a life that values honor, duty, good work, friends and family.'"

Newsmax.com - Source: U.S. Strike on Iran Nearing

Newsmax.com - Source: U.S. Strike on Iran Nearing: "Contrary to some claims that the Bush administration will allow diplomacy to handle Iran’s nuclear weapons program, a leading member of America’s Jewish community tells Newsmax that a military strike is not only on the table – but likely.

“Israel is preparing for heavy casualties,” the source said, suggesting that although Israel will not take part in the strike, it is expecting to be the target of Iranian retribution.

“Look at Dick Cheney’s recent trip through the Middle East as preparation for the U.S. attack,” the source said.

Cheney’s hastily arranged 9-day visit to the region, which began on March 16, included stops in Israel, Saudi Arabia, Iraq, Oman, Turkey, and the Palestinian territories.

Tensions in the region have been rising.

While Israel was conducting the largest homefront military exercises in its history last week, Israel’s National Infrastructure Minister Binyamin Ben-Eliezer warned Tehran about expected attacks on the Jewish state.

“An Iranian attack will prompt a severe reaction from Israel, which will destroy the Iranian nation,” he said.

He predicted that in a future war, “hundreds of missiles will rain on Israel,” but added that Iran “is definitely"

Take THAT, Howard Dean!!!!

American Thinker: The slick trick behind global frauding

American Thinker: The slick trick behind global frauding: "In Al Gore's America, any 'global warming denier' is guilty until proven innocent. He or she must have been bought off by Big Oil. Skeptics, no matter how well-qualified, must prove the negative about really silly alarmist hogwash. And whenever some prediction is falsified, the warm mongers have an explanation: it's just a temporary glitch in the data. Oh, yes, we were wrong about 1998, but just wait till 2050! The excuses are endless."

McCain, Obama Clash Over Iran's Al Qaeda Role - March 20, 2008 - The New York Sun

McCain, Obama Clash Over Iran's Al Qaeda Role - March 20, 2008 - The New York Sun: "Mr. McCain's national security adviser, Randy Scheunemann, told The New York Sun, 'There is ample documentation that Iran has provided many different forms of support to Sunni extremists, including Al Qaeda as well as Shi'ia extremists in Iraq. It would require a willing suspension of disbelief to deny Iran supports Al Qaeda in Iraq.'"

Re: McCain's huge gaffe

Mr. Dean:

You need to formulate a better line of attack. Your fund raising
email on McCain's "gaffe" only reveals your own naivety, ignorance
and desperation.

There is just too much information readily available all over the
web, including the 9/11 Commission Report, that links "Shia" Iran
with "Sunni" Al Qaeda.

I suggest you focus on his age, or possible infidelities!
