Osama bin Laden: killed and al Qaeda: on the run. That’s the balance sheet — more or less — that the U.S. has to share with the world. Meanwhile, its biggest ally in the War on Terror — Pakistan — has nothing to present except that its own people have been terrorized by militants, with [...]

Finally. Finally the Powers-That-Be plan to certify that “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” cease to be the law of the land. Once Obama signs off on it, that is. And it will take a couple more months before it is so, but still, better than nothing. I, for one, am very glad this law will no [...]

The tense relationship between Pakistan and the United States has often been described as a bad marriage. Like a couple teetering on divorce but frozen in mutually dependent inertia, the U.S. wants one thing while Pakistan wants another, at least most of the time. This love-hate relationship long precedes the September 11th attacks. The last [...]

“The operation was at this time effectively unknown to President Barack Obama or Valerie Jarrett and it remained that way until AFTER it had already been initiated. President Obama was literally pulled from a golf outing and escorted back to the White House to be informed of the mission. Upon his arrival there was a [...]

The Islamabad station chief of the Central Intelligence Agency hastily departed from Pakistan last week after his cover was blown due to a suspected deliberate leak by Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence. This act is the latest evidence of the tense relationship between the two spy agencies. It is believed that his cover was blown in retaliation [...]

This post carries an offer for the religious conservatives. Those who consider themselves good Christians, the ones who talk incessantly about family values and the importance of virginity. The ones who go to Church every Sunday and incorporate Jesus into every nonsensical thought that comes out of their mouths. The wholesome, flag-waving American-born Christians. For [...]

Editor’s Note: Originally published at The Public Record. Secretary of Defense Robert Gates has learned very little from the military trials and tribulations of the United States over the past 50 years. During that period, the United States has lost three costly and avoidable wars in Southeast Asia, Southwest Asia, and the Middle East. These [...]

(Bumped up from yesterday by Bronwyn’s Harbor. Hey, Josh Marshall, since you’re not content being a leading liberal blog owner so now you’re hangin’ with all of Barack Obama’s friends like Bernardine Dohrn — and we dig it because, well, you were never the cool kid in class, but now you see a chance, and [...]

[Ed.: If you missed it, you must listen to Nocturnal Warrior's Post-Election Special on November 5th -- the opening skit is a HOWLER!

We are facing the prospect of a naive and relatively uninformed young president whose world view has been largely formed by the far-left anti-American radicals he’s chosen as some of his closest friends for decades. We are facing the risk of a president so little traveled that he had to make a whirlwind tour of [...]

Obama will need more than a popular male prescription medication to get past this new McCain/Palin TV ad: “Tiny – 30 seconds“ That was a vile intro, wasn’t it. But such fun to write.

Agence France Presse, released Obama’s statement on the Iraq Double Talk-gate not more than 14 hours ago. I am sad to say it took the AFP to release this statement. The media here in the US seem to be “missing in action”. There are a couple of very troubling things about Obama’s response and meeting. [...]
