The aunt of a man accused of plotting to kill American Soldiers testified Friday that he said he was learning how to shoot guns for his own protection, but another defense witness said the defendant told him he was going to the range just for fun. Prosecutors allege that the real reason was for Wassim Mazloum to be ready to fight U.S. Soldiers in Iraq. Mazloum, Mohammad Amawi and Marwan El-Hindi are charged with conspiring to kill or maim people outside the United States More>>>

They were a swashbuckling lot — parachuting behind enemy lines, charging onto sandy beaches as bullets whizzed by, liberating countries from a totalitarian grip. They jitterbugged the nights away, sang about faraway sweethearts and painted the noses of their B-17 bombers with bawdy pinups. "They're overpaid, over-sexed and over here," the British groused about their American allies. More>>>

Near-tragedy turned to joy Monday, when Phillip and Karen Widman and their two children were rescued from their burning house on Locust Street by Kevin Lassally, a homosexual man. The fire, believed to have started when a lit candle ignited a set of drapes, threatened to consume the home and the Widman family along with it. Lassally, heading home after visiting with other homosexuals, smelled smoke and saw flames through the Widmans' living-room window. More>>>
Petraeus takes the Hill

Upon the return of Gen. David Petraeus to Capitol Hill, here is some of what he could report to his inquisitors: Yes, last year's troop surge has been measurably a success. The assorted insurgencies are rearing up far less frequently now. "Security incidents" last week were at their lowest level in four years. This time around, the general's testimony before the Senate Armed Forces Committee was actually met with respect, now that even the severest opponents of the war can no longer argue that the cause goes very badly.

How Hollywood loves to glorify Che
by
Roland, the Gunslinger
on Sat 24 May 2008 03:40 PM EDT
The two-part saga runs four hours, 30 minutes. It is almost entirely in Spanish, a particular challenge for U.S. viewers who dislike subtitles. It dispenses with many cliches of the biopic, offering virtually no insight into the origin of Che's brand of humanism, instead presenting impressionistic glimpses of Che's idealism in action during the Cuban revolution and his attempt to foment a similar transformation in Bolivia.

Steyn: Your car can't run on Congress' hot air

I was watching the Big Oil execs testifying before Congress. That was my first mistake. If memory serves, there was lesbian mud wrestling over on Channel 137, and on the whole that's less rigged. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz knew the routine: "I can't say that there is evidence that you are manipulating the price, but I believe that you probably are. So prove to me that you are not." More>>>

Political Wisdom: Are Conservatives Out of Gas?
by
Riley Jones
on Sat 24 May 2008 10:22 AM EDT
From the WSJ: Richard Nixon laid the groundwork for the conservative rise of the last few decades, Packer writes, and Ronald Reagan consolidated that rise. But: “In retrospect, the Reagan Presidency was the high-water mark of conservatism…After Reagan and the end of the Cold War, conservatism lost the ties that had bound together its disparate factions—libertarians, evangelicals, neoconservatives, Wall Street, working-class traditionalists. Without the Gipper and the Evil Empire, what was the organizing principle?” More>>>
