Iowahawk suspended in First Amendment outrage

First National Public Radio fires Juan Williams for daring to admit that when he gets a little nervous when anyone sitting next to him on an airplane gives him a business card identifying himself as a member of the Army of Allah and tells him it is the duty of Muslims to cut off the …

Iowahawk spots top Democrats in circular firing squad

Check out Iowahawk’s brilliant take on the intra-party war top Democrats are now waging via their proxies in the press and see if, like me, it reminds you of the song from the musical Chicago, “They Both Reached for the Gun” — and, um, just to be clear, I mean the puppet master aspect of …
