You ain't seen nothing yet
B-B-B-Baby you just ain't seen n-n-n-nothing yet
Here's something that your never gonna forget
B-B-B-Baby you just ain't seen n-n-n-nothing yet
If you thought George W. Bush was a disaster for America before, you haven't seen anything yet. Treasury Secretary Hank Paulson, following 43's orders to just "do something" about subprime loan clusterfuck (note: I said clusterfuck, not crisis), is about to potentially put US taxpayers on the hook for a hell of a lot more money.

Jack Kemp has endorsed John McCain for President:
"I am proud to support John McCain for president," said Jack Kemp. "John McCain is the only candidate who can be trusted to cut taxes, eliminate wasteful spending and enact conservative pro-growth policies to expand the economy. John McCain is the best choice to lead America to a more prosperous and secure future."
Are you kidding me?

In all the cultural battles with Islamic extremism, todays modern feminists are nowhere to be found. Why is that?
I find it appalling that these so-called "pro-woman" organizations and leaders cannot find the courage to attack a culture that promotes that notion that women are property and practices the culture of "honor killings".

Taxes, that is. Compulsory contributions to the state revenue pool. Based upon what? A moral judgement.
My uncle is fond of telling me that you "can't legislate morality". He is, of course, wrong. Our entire tax code is replete with legislated morality.
That is all sin taxes are.

There is no way that I can cover this entire topic in a single blog post, but I think it is a trenchant question now that the Chairborne Brigade and REMFs (Rear Echeclon Mother Fuckers) in the Pentagon have gone and fired MAJ Stephen Coughlin, USMCR.
According to Bill Gertz at the Washington Times:
Stephen Coughlin, the Pentagon specialist on Islamic law and Islamist extremism, has been fired from his position on the military's Joint Staff. The action followed a report in this space last week revealing opposition to his work for the military by pro-Muslim officials within the office of Deputy Defense Secretary Gordon England.
He had run afoul of a key aide to Mr. England, Hasham Islam, who confronted Mr. Coughlin during a meeting several weeks ago when Mr. Islam sought to have Mr. Coughlin soften his views on Islamist extremism.
So can we win the war on terror?

Word is out that the GOP Debate in New Hampshire co-sponsored by the Manchester Union Leader and Fox News has dropped Ron Paul as a participant. As a result, the state GOP has dropped its co-sponsorship.
Has Fox News gone stupid?

Word from the lovely and vivacious Michelle Malkin on White House plans for an economic stimulus package, as they begin to panic over the subprime mortgage mess, the price of energy, and the "possibility" of recession.
Why is it that politicians always return to failed notions of Keynesianism when they think the economy needs a "stimulus"?
It's as if George W. learned nothing from his own policies...

I was pretty sick on Thursday night, so I didn't have the opportunity to follow the minute-by-minute updates on the Iowa Caucuses. But I have been following elections in detail since 1984, and I can tell you this: Iowa Isn't All the Marbles.
