Conservatives deal with facts and reach conclusions; liberals have conclusions and sell them as facts.
Greyhawk is trying to put the pieces together in Iraq and Afghanistan when it comes to troop rotation. Right now, on the information available, it looks as if their’s some sleight of hand going on with regarding to troop movements and the American public. What do you think? In the
Continue readingIn one of my email lists, one of the correspondents, who is ex-military, voiced his concern that, if America collapses per Obama’s plan, enlistments and re-enlistments in the military will collapse too. After all, why should a young man or woman enlist if there’s nothing left to fight for. His

Those days are gone but, I must say, I’d be happy to resurrect them to spend some dance time with these wonderfully coordinated Marines, who apparently number terpsichorean talents amongst their other skills:

Continue readingWe all know that in the news world, “man bites dog” gets the front page, while “dog bites man” is ignored. In a twisted way, then, one could say that the wall-to-wall Abu Ghraib coverage reflected the media’s horror that the American military had morphed from honor to dishonor. (Or
Continue readingThe Dems, aided by old whats her name — um, Gwyneth Paltry — have put together an endless, repetitious ad urging registered voters living oversees to make sure that they vote for Obama. I have no problem with that. If you have constituents living abroad, you should try to reach

Continue readingThe press continues to shape public perceptions, but people are starting to wise up to the fact that the press often has no idea what it’s doing (especially when it comes to military matters) and that it either outright lies or misrepresents through omission. The Confederate Yankee just found a

Continue readingI’m sorry to say that, for me, “the troops” have always been somewhat abstract, not because I don’t respect and admire them, but because I really don’t know any troops. Living in my Marin bubble, where the military is anathema to the average person, you simply don’t have a large

The
