Daily Roundup
Iraq Can Handle Security, Premier Says. Then let them. If they're so confident, pass a measure in Parliment calling for our withdrawal. If they are a sovereign state, they can kick us out. If we were to stay after being told to leave, we would finally be the occupiers that lefties have been saying we are.
Saudis' role in Iraq insurgency outlined. Al-Qaeda ain't the be all, end all, and is a smaller influence than projected in the media. They're coming largely from Saudi. Interesting and actually not troubling so much as encouraging. That means the locals are not fighting us as much as the Saudis and it's also draining the Saudi feverswamp of Wahabbism that's been infecting the Muslim world for decades.
The cancer cure you'll never get. This brief video clip explains why price fixing for drugs would destroy the industry by root and branch.
Born and raised in a North Korean gulag. Think about that. He was born there and lived there his entire life because his grandparents supported the wrong side in the war. I'm old enough to remember when the Democrats would have been demanding that we topple the Kim Family Regime as it was repugnant to leave them in power. Now, nobody wants to do anything about them and not least because they might have a nuclear program.
John Edwards unveils his new presidential platform
Yet another abuse of UN funds (and thereby US tax dollars).
A profile of Iranian youth. Interesting but perhaps overstating things as far as rebellion goes. The cracks have been evident for some time, but how deep they must run to oust the mullahs is another matter.
An excellent article on counter terrorism efforts in both NYC and L.A. each using totally different approaches. This is the threat that I think Leftists and Democrats either downplay or ignore. They deny that there are real and credible threats to us each and every day. They are real, they exist and closing your eyes and covering your ears won't make them go away. We ignore them at our peril. If you knew what they knew you'd probably have more than a few sleepless nights. Leaving Iraq won't make them go away either.
Any Bond villians in the market for a new hideout, see here. While I appreciate the solitude and such, the sea off the coast of Portsmouth isn't the most hospitable place. I suspect this would command quite a few more dollars off the coast of say, St. Thomas.
One of the biggest complaints I have about owning a multimillion dollar submersible yacht is outlined here.
Brooklyn Brewing makes some of my favorite beers. The IPA and the Stout are nectar of the gods and Garrett Oliver is a genius who has given much to not only Brooklyn but craft brewing as well. Imagine my joy when I found out that they are powered entirely by wind power! They're so enthusiastic about wind power that they were giving away beer to people who signed up to switch from oil/gas/coal power to wind. Remember, if you don't drink Brooklyn beers it means you hate the planet and sponsor Al Qaeda.
