"The official with access to the transcripts said someone seeking help for the employees of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee, (AIPAC) a prominent pro-Israel lobbying group, was recorded asking Ms. Harman, a longtime supporter of its efforts, to intervene with the Justice Department. She responded, [...]

"Rep. Jane Harman, the California Democrat with a longtime involvement in intelligence issues, was overheard on an NSA wiretap telling a suspected Israeli agent that she would lobby the Justice Department to reduce espionage-related charges against two officials of the American Israeli Public Affairs [...]

Secretary of State Hilary Clinton is making her first trip to the Middle East in her new capacity. No doubt, this trip will garner a lot of interest since she is meeting with both Israel and Palestine. And I imagine there will be no small amount of walking on eggshells for the Secretary [...]

Anyone (like Barack Obama) entertaining ideas of western democracies establishing friendly relations with the radicals of the Islamic world should watch this video.
While watching the inflammatory rhetoric of the speaker, remember that this is not a jahidist from Iran but a professor from Kuwait - a country with every reason to be grateful to [...]

No matter where you fall on the Israel/Gaza issue, and I know people have strong feelings on both sides, two events this past weekend are disturbing. They are disturbing because we have been down this road before. And this is a road down which we never want to go again, not Israel, not [...]

Speaking for myself only…
“Hamas’ charter calls for the destruction of the State of Israel and its replacement with a Palestinian Islamic state in the area that is now Israel, the West Bank, and the Gaza Strip.”
Israel is right to attack Hamas in Gaza. The Palestinians are wrong to have elected Hamas as their leaders. Like [...]

Susan’s Preface: Reverend Amy remembered this story by me from the primaries. She FORCED ME to post it since we’re trying to remind our readers, new and old, of some of the reasons why we might be worthy of an award for political commentary. So, embarrassed as I am to be flaunting my stuff, [...]

[ADMIN NOTE: While American Girl's analogy is prone to misinterpretation, she goes to great lengths to ensure that every reader knows she understands that there is no comparison between the actual suffering of the Jewish people compared to that of Pumas.

Richard Cohen’s sister is canceling her inauguration party because of President-elect Obama’s choice of Rick Warren to bless Mr. Obama’s taking the office of the Presidency of the United State.
According to her brother’s column in the Washington Post, what made her do this is the way in which Mr. Obama’s [...]

UPDATE: The Chicago Tribune (understandably busy with the Blagojevich blow-up) has the “first ever” newspaper interview with the official PEBO. As we said several days ago, PEBO has stated he wants to make a major speech from a muslim capital. Fine.
Barack Obama says his presidency is an opportunity [...]

Yes, the Bush Administration will be recognized in the history books as a complete disaster. The mess they have left us with is incomprehensible. At the same time, you have to admit every now and then they were good for laughs.
The latest, it seems they sent out invitations to a White House [...]

Let me say this from the start, I have no idea what the Obama administration policy towards Israel and the U.S.-Israeli alliance will be. After all, during the campaign, he literally had one policy towards Jerusalem one day and a completely different one 24 hours later.
While the President-elect eventually won over most of the [...]

I hope Barack Obama sends a nice Christmas or Kwanzaa present to George W. Bush. Without the debacle of the Bush Administration Barack would not have had a shot at winning the White House. Widespread disgust over the war in Iraq, the collapse of the financial industry in September and October, and Barack’s [...]

For the past few days, my phone has been buzzing with calls from devastated volunteers and celebrating friends. In the accelerated world of the blogosphere, writers have begun to rationalize the demographics of the vote and to anticipate the future.
Important new groups like The New Agenda have raised significant concerns about the Obama administration [...]

Bill Ayers, domestic terrorist and Obama benefactor, dedicated his book to Sirhan Sirhan, the man who assassinated Robert F. Kennedy.
Prairie Fire, published in 1974, is described as Ayers’ communist manifesto.
Dedicating a book to Sirhan Sirhan isn’t radical chic or a youthful indulgence. Dedicating a book to Sirhan Sirhan is tantamount to denying the [...]

The Rev. must be out of the doghouse for his “nutty” remarks about Obama’s, er uh, nuts. The NYPost published an interview today between Amir Taheri and Jesse Jackson. Jackson is in France, at a “World Policy Forum,” where he spoke about the foreign policies he feels an Obama administration would pursue.

Remember Alcee Hastings? He’s a US Representative from FL who was impeached when a federal judge and subsequently voted into Congress (HOW does that happen?). Need a reminder? During a trial for bribery and perjury, Hastings was acquitted after a co-conspirator refused to testify.
