EIT or Not

Tuesday, May 19th, 2009

Mychael Massie contends that "EIT" (enhanced interrogation techniques) aren't "enhanced" at all but are normal.  Not just normal but that which SHOULD be used.  To pursue this argument he compares the interrogations severity to the beheadings conducted by terrorists.  This is a fallacious comparison in the context of civilized behavior ...

Super Power Super State

Friday, May 1st, 2009

Contrary to the most excellent previous post by our dear friend Sally,  many, if not most, libertarians (note the small l) do not have any horror or regret at the economic and military might of the United States of America.  I am proud of it as an illustration of the ...

Sally Morem’s Turn to Get Controversial

Wednesday, April 29th, 2009

I wrote a response to a very interesting post in the Postmodern Conservative web site on Bacevich and his anti-American Empire stance. First, the most interesting part of James Poulos's post: At the heart of the problem is our total confusion about what empire is. Noah helps us see ...

American behavior should be exceptional

Monday, April 27th, 2009

The Pirate Story, a deeper look

Friday, April 24th, 2009

This was submitted by a reader as something he received from a retired Naval Captain. ========= Your "Real" story is not exactly the way I heard it, and probably has a few political twists thrown in to stir the pot.  Rather than me trying to correct it, I'll just tell you what ...

Who put the Mental in Fundamentalist?

Tuesday, April 21st, 2009

I think that this article on CNN’s web site today illustrates the futility of trying to deal with extremist organizations like the Taliban. It is this kind of mindset that we cannot eradicate through force of arms unless we intend to take it to a genocidal level. The only ...

Nixon Went to China…

Sunday, April 19th, 2009

...Reagan signed the IMF arms control treaty with Gorbachev, and now Obama has opened to door to Cuba, Iran and Venezuela.  If his actions serve America's interests, as those of his predecessors did, we should applaud him.  Negotiating with hostile powers, if done in the national interest, is Realpolitik, a ...

Who are extremist to collectivists – YOU!

Thursday, April 16th, 2009

You can see from the complete report who your collectivist sheople herders view as potential terrorists.  People who value life and liberty and those who defend both.  Read it and weep.  Better yet, read it and speak out!  Also, view our example of the same misguided collectivist phobia in public ...
