The Council has spoken, the votes have been cast, and the results are in for this week’s Watcher’s Council match up. “Four years ago, I promised to end the war in Iraq. We did. I promised to refocus on the terrorists who actually attacked us on 9/11. We have. We’ve blunted the Taliban’s momentum in […]

A few thoughts on various items: The Bergdahl disaster: I have two huge issues with this thing and the most important is the swap of five Taliban leaders who are a danger to the nation for any US POW. I am gravely concerned that this has emboldened the Taliban and other terror groups to take […]

William Kristol wrote an essay in his magazine, the Weekly Standard. It is well written and worthy of comment. Kristol’s thesis is that when we renounced the world badge and beat, we ended up with 9/11. But Kristol confuses the Cold War with the post-war era. I certainly agree with him that we were too […]

I was amused about the comments of a US general who was fired for inappropriate comments in public about the Afghan government: In a recent interview with the website Politico, Fuller characterized Afghan leaders as erratic, ungrateful and isolated from reality. The interview quotes him as saying Afghan leaders don’t fully recognize America’s sacrifices on […]

Doug Ross has an interesting post that expresses just what I was thinking: The Master Chief reminds us that the dumbest vice president in American history likely played a role in the tragedy that saw 31 special operators killed, 25 of whom served in the ultra top-secret SEAL Team Six. …It is believed that many […]

MP Rory Stewart, OBE, spoke some time ago on a subject very near to his heart: Afghanistan. Here is a column on it from ConservativeHome. Stewart takes a humanitarian but generally non-interventionist position on continued UK troop involvement in the nation. Here is a quote from the cited article of Ian Parker in the New […]

Who knew it was possible? Of the Obamacare Gang of 219, Alan Grayson (FL-8), is the most reprehensible, detestable bomb thrower in the House of Representatives.

I want to thank Chris Stirewalt for his wise article in the DC Examiner (courtesy of RCP). I want to reserve comment on whether Michael Steele should be fired or not; that’s up to the Republican National Committee. However, Stirewalt raises several crucial issues. First, we have the fact that 9/11 did start the conflict in […]

I wrote two months ago at Virginia Right and Conflicted Libertarian about the Young Turks of the Tory Party – young MPs recently elected to the British Parliament who might have an impact.

This administration is loathe to admit we are still at war with radical Islamic terrorists. Or more correctly that the terrorists are at war with us. For President Obama and Janet Napolitano, their “dream terrorist” is a Christian Militia affiliated white male. 1. A Pakistani Taliban terror group claimed responsibility. 2. “We are looking for […]
