Rampant Looting After Katrina, a myth? Video tells the awful story.

March 27, 2008 –

Rampant looting a myth perpetuated by the press? Or a myth dispelled by a police department busy disarming law abiding citizens?
The Untold Story of Gun Confiscation After KatrinaVideo and testimonials on the travesty that occurred in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina when police and law enforcement confiscated lawfully-owned firearms–at precisely the time citizens needed them most [...]

Pilot’s Gun Goes off on U.S. Airways Flight…Wondering if the same person trained DEA Agent giving a gun safety lesson and the pilot? Government program?

March 25, 2008 –

Well guess this just about covers allowing pilots to have guns. I am all for it but this will surely be used by the nannies to disarm our pilots.
No injuries are reported after a pilot’s gun discharged on a U.S. Airways flight from Denver to Charlotte, N.C.
Airline and federal officials say Flight 1536 [...]

Warming Stopped 10 Years Ago? Nothing to see here, move along!

March 22, 2008 –

Just this week we found out in this post that the Oceans were not warming, indeed there was a slight cooling (you might think that would get mentioned now and again) going on. Now we find out that a satellite we sent up in 2002 is turning over many of the premises scientists thought they knew [...]

Oops Storyline of Global Warming Freaks Shredding on the Reality of Our Ignorance

March 20, 2008 –

Thanks to Glenn Reynolds over at Instapundit for this link. Not mentioned at the link from Glenn is this little bombshell of information. NPR at least deserves some credit for publishing this strike against the Chicken Little’s who find any evidence of global cooling, evidence of Global Warming. But you would think that the fact they are [...]

It’s Bush’s Fault part 2,578…New Orleans failure

August 29, 2007 –

If you are interested in what our country will look like if the Democrats gain power you need only examine New Orleans.  A study in liberal philosophy gone mad.
The blame game, and the violence that has rocked New Orleans over the past year, are “classic symptoms of people who have gone through trauma, especially when they [...]

New Orleans Will Never Be Safe | Ecotality Blog

August 7, 2007 –

From Bill Hobbs over at Ecotality…
A bit off topic, but definitely on target. Does it make sense to insist on having a city below sea level on slowly sinking coastal marshland smack in the middle of Hurricane Alley,

Global Warming Hysterics…Fun with Photoshop

February 2, 2007 –

YIKES!!! TEXAS A&M Has 2 Steve Schroeders….and naturally because I haven’t eaten any crow lately one of them is indeed a Climatologist.  This hurts me more than you know because the rest of this post was much better researched. But fair is fair and I blew it when I screwed up on identifying Schroeder, sorry for [...]

The war is not about Palestinian Rights

July 17, 2006 –

Charles Krauthammer skirts close to the reasons for this war against Israel but he never directly names it. This war is less about Jews and Anti Semitism than it is simply about the inability of Islam to allow different religions to regain territory lost to them by Islamic conquest. Zawahiri still bemoans the loss of [...]

Crime in New Orleans??? Who knew?

July 10, 2006 –

UPDATES BELOW and EDITING Text to do something, anything with that first sentence.
One of the biggest jokes in the coverage of New Orleans during and after Katrina were the people pushing the meme that the massive crime wave following Katrina was merely hype by an overactive media. Yea yea yea…we didn’t find stacks of bodies [...]

The Myths about Katrina Myths

November 25, 2005 –

Sorry Ed please don’t take this personally but for a while now these sorts of articles have been getting under my skin. Not because the MSM does not deserve to be attacked when they are wrong but simply because we seem to be so anxious to prove the media wrong that we jump to the [...]

We need blood in New Orleans…give blood please.

August 31, 2005 –

In Baton Rouge we are getting slammed with people. Last night while looking for her Mom at the emergency shelter, my wife met an elderly couple from Lakeview who had been rescued from their rooftop yesterday morning. All day long they had been thankful to be sitting on metal chairs in front of the shelter. [...]

Jonah Goldberg…speechless at the level of idiocy this post required.

August 30, 2005 –

At one time the National Review was a useful tool of the Conservative movement. This is no longer the case and hasn’t been for sometime. Jonah’s post of Aug 29 proves that point. I try not to use vulgarity very often but fuck you Jonah, fuck your ever so carefully cultured superiority, fuck your assumption [...]
