    Here’s Amanda Carpenter defending private contractors in Iraq:

    I wonder what she thinks of this?

    Blackwater wants lawsuit decided under Islamic law

    Blackwater’s aviation wing recently filed a unique request in federal court, where the widows of three American soldiers are suing the company over a botched flight supporting the U.S. military in Afghanistan.

    The company, based in Moyock, doesn’t want the case heard in an American courtroom under American law: it wants the case heard under Shari’a, the Islamic law of Afghanistan.

    Here’s Amanda Carpenter defending torture:

    Here’s Amanda Carpenter strangely believing that what’s largely a fluff piece on new La. Gov., possible McCain VP pick, and Intelligent Design proponent Bobby “The Exorcist” Jindal is actually some kind of hit piece:

    A quote from the “hit piece”:

    Still, Mr. Jindal offered something few others could to a state that is on its knees. Louisiana is more desperate than ever, a place where the glaring needs of its citizens evidently trumped considerations of race and ethnicity.

    He has taken an already lengthy public policy résumé, mostly in health care, along with sterling educational credits (Brown University and Oxford, as a Rhodes Scholar) and come back home instead of using his credentials as a ticket to escape, as many other accomplished Louisianans do.

    Louisiana — largely impoverished, undereducated and unhealthy — has been left behind by whatever national prosperity has accrued in recent decades. Hurricane Katrina only knocked it back further. Mr. Jindal, outside the Louisiana mainstream but within the well-to-do 21st-century American one, seemed to offer a ticket to the latter.

    She’s a regular on Fox “Terrorist Fist Bump” News.

    Ah, Fox “News”…I’m sure “Pelosi” will get right on those *Senate* ethics issues & “is this issue resonating with viewers…I mean voters?”…lol…too funny! Anything that they can do to hype something up against the Dems and mention Pelosi in a bad light…Fox is all over it!
