Carbon emitting kids
Who didn’t see this coming: a pair of doctors in Britain want Brits to limit themselves to just two children because each additional child helps contribute to global warming. […] Continue reading

I believe that the United States of America is something great, and I believe that greatness is worth defending to the death, if necessary… Continue reading
20070813 Patriotic Poetry and Hope
While the political world continues to hyperventilate about Iraq and all that goes with that conflict, there are growing signs that more and more Americans get the point of what is going on there and in Afghanistan and elsewhere. The news gets more hopeful. The polls reflect a greater sense of optimism. People who believe in the right of Americans to defend themselves and their liberty are stepping up to the plate.
