Politics

The nomination of Chuck Hagel by President Obama to become our next Secretary of Defense has really started a firestorm.

Here Comes Rummy

National Security

We thought he was lost, but at last he was found: “In his speech to the nation last night, President Obama claimed that ‘Commanders in Afghanistan repeatedly asked for support to deal with the reemergence of the Taliban, but these reinforcements did not arrive.’ Such a bald misstatement, at least as it pertains to the […]

Misc
