Bet you didn’t know that Pakistan’s eastern border was with Afghanistan – did ya? People who questioned my view of foreign policy probably need go back and read the speech that i delivered back in Washington in September. … We have seen what happens in the Musharraf government. He has told us he does not […]
No – not for President, but I am supporting him in this: Talking Points Memo’s Greg Sargent is reporting today that the Romney campaign has fired a broadside at Fox News, which issued a directive in the wake of John McCain’s “Woodstock ad” forbidding the use of their footage for campaign advertisements. Yes candidates should […]
There was a lot of discussion about the CNN/YouTube Democratic debate on the talk shows yesterday, but there was no mention of the stalled Republican debate? Why don’t the Sunday talking heads want people to know the Republicans are to chicken to take questions from the people? They sure talked it up when the Democrats […]
That is what he told reporters yesterday. I guess the response would be “strong” when you consider Bush’s response on 9/11/01 after hearing the phrase “the country is under attack” So how much should we be applauding the U.K. government on this?

That is exactly what this Republican disgusting excuse for an American said in the halls of our Congress. At one point, Rohrabacher argued that imprisoning and torturing one innocent person was a fair price to pay for locking up 50 terrorists who would “go out and plant a bomb…and kill 20,000 people.†When members of […]
Today the number of soldiers killed in Iraq reached 3,308, including 3 soldiers killed today. Also under the radar is the U.K.’s decision to drop the phrase “war on terror”: The British government has stopped using the phrase “war on terror” to refer to the struggle against political and religious violence, according to a Cabinet […]
That is the new word going around. Food prices are going to go up because of an extra demand for ethanol and alternative fuels. The use of corn in these fuels is going to cause food prices to rise. I have a suggestion for the food industry to offset these prices. Get rid of the […]
Cheney made a surprise visit to Pakistan to tell them to get tough on al Qaeda. What is interesting is exactly what he said to them: Vice President Dick Cheney made an unannounced trip to Pakistan on Monday to deliver what officials in Washington described as an unusually tough message to Gen. Pervez Musharraf of […]
