Victory Is Our Only Option
As opposition to the war in Iraq continues to be the agenda of the Democrats in Congress, we are beginning to see Senate Republicans cowardly caving just as they did in the debate over illegal immigration. While many Senate and House Republicans conti…

But not this Saturday.
Why is that?
Guess who's coming to town?
Cindy Sheehan.
Read that again.

Benchmarks, we don’t need to stinkin’ benchmarks
… the fact is in war, mistakes will be made, and people will die as a result. The only way to win a war therefore, is to adapt, after the mistake has been made, and then gain advantage….hopefully, the backbone

So Much For Sheehan Going Away
Remember Cindy Sheehan claiming she was done protesting and wanted out of the spotlight? Well, she lied. Now she’s announced her candidacy to run for the Congressional seat held by Dianne Feinstein because Feinstein is not liberal enough to suit Shee…
