In case you missed it, actor Chevy Chase has indorsed Elliot Spitzer for Governor. Is Elliot Spitzer serious? Does he think Chevy Chase is someone who commands respect?

In response to John Murtha’s press conference, a congresswoman from Ohio quoted a soldier in Iraq that said “Tell John Murtha that cowards cut & run, Marines stay the course”. It seems as if the Dems are going back to their usual “don’t know to quit when you’re ahead” mentality and are going to be losing any gains that they have been getting from 2000 deaths in Iraq, Hurricane Katrina, Harriet Miers, etc. As part of his “campaign against the critics”,... Read More→

With the death of the elder Kim in 1994, reunification efforts have been a bit topsy-turvy thanks to his son and successor Kim Jung Il, who is by all accounts... Read More→

This morning while in South Korea, President Bush supported the idea of a unified Korea but is that really a good idea for the national security of the United States? Do we need another China?

South Korea has the 12th largest economy in the world as well as the 6th largest military force. Combining... Read More→

STATEMENT FROM GOVERNOR GEORGE E. PATAKI“We are deeply troubled by today’s ruling in the case brought by 12 sexual predators who are challenging the State’s decision to civilly confine them because they represent a real danger to our children and our communities. “Today’s ruling creates special, new judge-made rights and protections for rapists, predators and pedophiles who are about to be released from prison into our communities.
