Who's left then? Congress and its environmental radicals, of course.

Excessive profits made by them is simply propaganda spewed by the liberal Democrat leadership. The facts (yes, liberals, an inconvenient truth) show that their return on investment is right in line with or less than that of other industries.

An organization called Gathering of Eagles, made up of military veterans, wrote me a very nice thank-you note regarding my last column, and put it and links to quite a few of my other columns on its website.Its website is www.newyork.gatheringofeagles.org. This group is one of many that include the men and women whom I consider to be the real patriots of this country.

He recently allowed himself to be a useful idiot to yet another terrorist group, this time Hamas.

I'm talking about the congressional hearings last week involving Gen. David Petraeus and Ambassador Ryan Crocker.

The dictionary defines it as "the usually progressive deterioration of intellectual functions such as memory that can occur while other brain functions such as those controlling movement and senses are retained."

Just when you thought the Democratic-controlled House couldn't sink any lower in being a do-nothing, incompetent Congress, nearing a historical single-digit public approval rating, it has proceeded in accomplishing just that.

The sky is falling! What to do, what to do? So goes the mantra of the Bush administration, all the presidential candidates (except Huckabee) and both houses of Congress, especially those individuals running for re-election.I am talking about the current subprime, adjustable rate mortgage "crisis." The solution is simple.
