No Relief in Sight for the USS Lincoln
January 27, 2005 - War News
It has been three weeks since my ship, the USS Abraham Lincoln, arrived off the Sumatran coast to aid the hundreds of thousands of victims of the Dec. 26 tsunami that ravaged their coastline. I’d like to say that this has been a rewarding experience for us, but it has not: Instead, it has been a frustrating and needlessly dangerous exercise made even more difficult by the Indonesian government and a traveling circus of so-called aid workers who have invaded our spaces.

John Kerry’s America
Buckley Recalls 1971 Interview
February 06, 2004 - War News
In 1971, William F. Buckley gave the commencement address at West Point. Buckley had just met a young Vietnam veteran named John Kerry. Kerry so impressed Buckley that he referenced John Kerry at least twenty-two times in that speech. It is important to remember, Buckley's address to newly graduated military officers was delivered on June 8, 1971. John Kerry had not yet entered politics, but Buckley already pegged him as a force America would one day have to reckon with. (ed. note --well worth the read)

The Kerry biography: He's risen without trace
February 02, 2004 - War News
For Howard Dean's Iowa concession speech, the decibel level was off the meter but the content was unexceptional -- a list of states of the union, in no particular order, but still reasonably accurate. For his New Hampshire concession speech, the decibel level was much reduced but the content was a lot wackier. As Gov. Dean told his dwindling army of groupies:
