"Extraordinary Rendition"
My lame attempt at biting Low Culture's steez. More seriously though, my sympathies go out to the people of Lebanon.
"It may only be a matter of time...."
"Islamic extremists are exploiting the Iraqi conflict to recruit new anti-U.S. jihadists"
Another $82 billion. I hear we're up around $300 billion committed or spent now with no meaningful progress having been made in Iraq or on tipping the balance in the war on terror.
Is this what we paid for? Iraqi Election Winners Allied With Iran Are the Opposite of U.S. Vision
While seriously, what's going on in Iran anyway?
As testing on Bush’s "wannabe-missile defense system" fails again.
“Extraordinary Rendition” - like everything else during the Bush administration even America’s secret program of torture is being outsourced. Why is this not the lead story in every paper in America?
This article probably helps explains why. Sad.... Is the US proud of itself yet?
How about now? "The conspicuous absence of the United States at celebrations [Wednesday] marking the beginning of a broad international effort to curb global warming should be cause for shame in this country...." (full story from The Winston-Salem Journal)
Why is Google News carrying Power Line and not Daily Kos? (update: apparently this is more benign than it initially looked.)
After Bush Leaves Office, His Budget's Costs Balloon.
Face it folks, we are entering scary new times. Is it time to dust off those Germany 1933 comparisons yet?
