US Aid : March 27, 2003 : Note 2

Find me another country who gives to the international community as much as the US does.  People are always whining how the US hasn’t done anything for the world, or hasn’t done enough.  No other country does as much as the US.  No one.

The British-French Duel : March 27, 2003 : Note 0

The UPI editor-in-chief, John O’Sullivan, writes a commentary on the duel between Chirac and Blair over the War on Saddam.  I thought I despised Chirac before… I really do now.

Ashcroft Making More Mistakes : March 27, 2003 : Note 1

The Justice Department has lifted a requirement that all new information submitted to the FBI‘s criminal database be “accurate, relevant, timely and complete”.  Critics had a few things to say… The system “is replete with inaccurate, untimely information, but everybody does their best to…

American Heroes : March 26, 2003 : Note 0

Joshua Claybourn points to a post by an Air Force pilot talking about the six members of the US Air Force who crashed and died a few days ago in Afghanistan. Read it and contrast it to the whining and sniping of people who say the…

A List Of The Fallen : March 26, 2003 : Note 1

Fox News has a list of the servicemen who have died in the conflict so far.  When you read their names and brief bios, it really brings the war home.  I was sad just reading this.  I can’t imagine the pain and anguish of the friends and family of…

Real Or Fake Apache Photo? : March 26, 2003 : Note 2

I’m still trying to decide if this picture attributed to Reuters at a Russian site is real or not.  It looks Photoshopped.  Something about it doesn’t look right, but I can’t put my finger on it.
