Russian police were called to an apartment complex recently after the discovery of a body. The body was that of the apartment tenant who hadn’t been seen since the year 2000. Vladimir’s body was discovered in a sitting position, his arm, still retaining some flesh, leaning on the kitchen table, his head slumped over. An [...]
Back at the beginning of the month I took note of a very disturbing story out of Arizona where members of the National Guard who were standing a post on the Mexican-American border were approached by an armed force and retreated from their position. Early reports said the post was “overrun” and I definitely wanted [...]
The town council of Herouxville, Canada has taken an interesting approach in dealing with the potential of having immigrants come to town who aren’t thinking about the kind of culture they’re entering. The town is telling them, explicitly, what kinds of cultural norms they can expect. According to the Canadian Press, the town’s council recently [...]

John Kerry has managed to give us all yet another reason to consider him a waste of time/space/air in playing to the anti-American crowd that gathers annually at Davos, Switzerland. This time, he’s blaming the Bush administration for causing the US to become a “sort of international pariah.” Most telling about the Senator’s inability to [...]
I noticed this little tidbit over at Bacon’s Rebellion this morning regarding the Metropolitan Washington Airport Authority’s stance on disclosure: they say they don’t need to. Gov. Kaine wants to hand over the Dulles rail project to the MWAA in its entirety – including the part about raising tolls on the Dulles Toll Road. The [...]
Ed Morrissey over at Captain’s Quarters has this item this morning dealing with an amendment to the minimum-wage hike being debated. Jeff Sessions (R-AL) proposed an amendment to increase fines on employers found to be (knowingly, I assume) hiring illegal aliens. The Dems killed the amendment. Ed had this to say: Apparently the Democrats have [...]
