Before Obama majorly embarrassed Secretary Clinton. Oh, many of us knew this was coming - and it has happened on a smaller scale here and there (except during the Primaries in which Mr. Ditto copied almost ALL of her policy positions). Now, it is on the big stage, about a big issue: Iran. [...]

After relative silence from the President on the events unfolding in Iran, the White House is now intimating that his Cairo speech contained the seeds for the Iranian revolution we now see playing out in the streets of Tehran. But Anne Applebaum’s excellent piece today in the Washington Post, An Overlooked Force in Iran, [...]

Dr. David Scheiner, President Obama’s internist of 22 years, has a mixed practice of adults from local housing projects on up to some very famous patients. He issued the 276-word statement last year vouching for Obama’s “excellent health.” While he still supports the President, David Whelan’s Forbes article Obama’s Doctor Knocks ObamaCare allows [...]

Oh, the irony is just too rich. Some of you may have heard that President Obama decided the other day, after getting hammered by the LGBT community over DADT and DOMA, to grant LGB federal employees partner benefits by Executive Decision. Kind of. First, it begs the question, if he could have [...]

Well, those of us who have been following Secretary Clinton’s career know that she is a hard worker, who goes about doing the work that needs doing without the glare of the lights and cameras. I heard about this story from a friend of mine who lives in the same neck of the woods [...]

Much as I hate giving Bill Maher press, I just can’t help myself. His article, Enough with the Obamathon, appearing in the Friday LA Times, lets us share our first up close and personal glimpse of Mr. Maher’s head exploding as he exhibits growing irritation with his messiah…:
President Obama should just join the cast [...]

While I have long thought VP Dick Cheney was the devil incarnate, no one ever said he wasn’t a smart guy. Cheney was also arguably our most unpopular Vice President evah! He looked to be hiding out in a bunker most of the eight years President Bush was in office, and was probably [...]

Huffington Post featured an exclusive excerpt from Wolffe’s book on Obama’s ascent to the Presidency. You can run over and see it for yourselves if you feel so inclined, I will not link to it. Much as I would wish otherwise, I must express bottomless contempt for the continuously disrespectful [...]

Not too long ago, you may recall, I was on a cruise in the Mediterranean. One of our stops was in Egypt, and we spent the night in Cairo (the ship docked in Alexandria). We had a wonderful tour guide, a young woman named Rasha, seen above. Despite never having left Egypt, [...]

That’s what the Germans seem to think of Secretary Clinton, anyway. It seems they are asking her to help deal with the GM mess as it relates to them, according to this article (H/T to Ani for alerting me to this). Why, you might ask? Because it affects them, too, in a big [...]

Who is a woman of her word. I know, that is a bit unusual in the political realm, at least given the example set by the president whom she serves (eeww, yuck, still have a hard time saying that). My good friend, Ani, at No Quarter tipped me off to this story. [...]

First, let me apologize for the disheveled organization of this post, since I have a lot of incongruent pincer-like situations on my mind, but — nevertheless — I have been trying to stay up on the latest news coming out of Pakistan because, dammit, it’s so important and because most media aren’t covering it in [...]

In “U.S. urges cooperation against militants,” the Los Angeles Times reports: “As a summit with Pakistan and Afghanistan opens, Hillary Clinton expresses regret over civilian casualties from a military strike in Afghanistan, and promises an investigation. …”
UPDATE #1: Here’s CNN’s coverage of the press conference:

Recently, my fellow NQ writer, Ani, mentioned this incredibly assholic, sexist, comment Jay Leno made at Secretary Clinton’s expense. Personally, I don’t care for Jay Leno anyway, but now I REALLY don’t care for him. The video is below (H/T to SusanUnPC for finding this for me), and the [...]

My good buddy, SusanUnPC (No Quarter), told me about this lovely story. I figured since I ended up writing about Hillary Clinton yesterday, I might as well continue the theme and write about her today, too. Oh, who am I kidding - I could write about her EVERY day. She is the [...]
