Sanity On Halliburton.
"Not many people want to drive eight to fifteen days through a war zone with a truck full of flammable materials," the company says. "Three drivers have been killed and many others injured while performing this mission, and 60 vehicles have been damaged."
As a result, Halliburton officials say they came up with the idea of arranging for another fuel source in Turkey. "[Halliburton] initiated the idea to source fuel from Turkey," the company says. [Halliburton] presented this idea to its customer, and because of this, saved taxpayers well over $100 million."

The Law Of The Good, The Law Of The Right.
If you do nothing else this weekend, you must read Frederick Turner's astounding article at Tech Central Station, which places the Loony Left's hatred of George W. Bush in its proper historical context, and explains its origins.

Another hammer blow
"Was it coincidence that the negotiations were concluded only days after Saddam was captured? Probably not. Likely there were a few final sticking points, and when Saddam was found, and was so totally disgraced by his condition, circumstances and lack of resistance, Qaddafi felt a chill wind blowing down his spine and gave in."

Inclusiveness.
At this particular celebration, however, it became apparent that school administration was determined to be as inclusive as possible. The presentation included a few traditional Chanukkah songs, accompanied by two separate explanations of the Jewish holiday. We were treated to no fewer than five explanations of Kwanzaa, none of which included the criminal history of its founder, and a number of Kwanzaa songs to go along with the lessons. However, during the entire performance, not one explanation of Christmas was presented, and not one religious Christmas carol was sung by the choirs. Instead, the children performed songs like "Frosty the Snowman" and "Winter Wonderland".
It gets worse.

Chris really captured something here. I have been around ducks all my life and never took a close look at the bill. Fascinating.

It's just like (shudder) Viet Nam!.
According to some covered by the media. Hell, sometimes according to the media itself. But there's actually a grain of truth to that. And that would be that there was a lot of disinformation spread around about that conflict, too....
