Emails Glenn Reynolds;

"This is a very serious offensive kicking off in Iraq. The NYT realizes it's serious, but nobody that I am seeing realizes just how big this is. Relatively massive."

I'm assuming a big wall of silence would signal that the New York Slimes realize it's serious, big and newsworthy.

May I lives long enough to see that rag reduced to the news/editorial relevance of the Pennysaver. (For Canadian friends, the free dumb thing you sort out with the mail.)

Uh, oh: "relatively" massive.
Let's hope not another "shock and awe" false alarm.

They're laughing at us ya know, and the monkey Ahmydinnerjacket is having an absolute ball. The West is weak and vacillating and the enemy knows it. bin Laden was right with his "paper tiger" and strong-horse metaphor.

Bush -- bless the man -- is tired out and broken and Condi Rice is simply nuts. And there simply is no political will in the West to do what is necessary to smash Islamism.

With this PC "hearts and minds" horseshit we would never have beaten the Huns and Japs.

The west is weak? You mean the Press!

me no dhmini, news from Europe over the last few days suggest socialism is being cast off. France has re-elected a conservative dominated parliament and Sweden seems to have embarked on the task of dismantling its cradle to grave nanny state. The West is waking up.

Louise: "The West is waking up"

Too late, will take about one or two generations to right things. From what I see of this generation or their kids, that ain't gonna happen man.

What ?????

You mean the NYT doesn't have American Military SECRETS plastered all over their headlines ? You mean there is a massive offensive strategy going down and they don't have the scoop.

Way to go Gen. Petreus !

Did you see that BBC online was asking people in Iraq to report US troop movements to them? I guess the report on the BBC being a socialist propagand machine was accurate.

About Kate

Why this blog?
Until this moment I have been forced to listen while media and politicians alike have told me "what Canadians think". In all that time they never once asked.

This is just the voice of an ordinary Canadian yelling back at the radio - "You don't speak for me."
