Update below the fold. You know, I really should stop being astonished at the news, the sheer upside-down-ness of the world in which we live. But, no – I suppose I still expect a modicum of sanity to prevail. Sadly, that expectation fell far short when I saw some of the following news stories. For [...]

(March 11, 2010 – Photo by Mario Tama/Getty Images North America) I had planned on doing something else today, but when I was alerted that this video (and text) of Secretary of State Clinton was available, I postponed my other piece. It should be no surprise to anyone that anything like this from Hillary Clinton [...]

Today, March 8th, is the 99th celebration of International Women’s Day. The history of how this day came to be is interesting: International Women’s Day has been observed since in the early 1900′s, a time of great expansion and turbulence in the industrialized world that saw booming population growth and the rise of radical ideologies.

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 [...]

Oh, what a turn of events, and so quickly, too. Remember when Hugo Chavez called Bush “the devil” at another UN meeting? Many of us thought that was hilarious. Here’s the clip as a reminder: Yes, yes, that was mighty funny. Finally, someone was saying what so many of us lefties thought.

Dr. Sima Samar. Now, some of you may know who she is already. For those who do not, or for those who are want to learn more, this is for you. (H/t to my aunt for sending me a mini biography on her, and to American Girl in Italy for mentioning her recently, too.) And [...]

Nuke Provocation Is The Thing This Year. The rogue Kim Jong Il regime of North Korea is a proliferator for hire — Have Evil, Will Travel — and it only moves when there is money in it. The apparent sudden announcement by the Kim regime that it is turning out the IAEA inspectors, walking [...]

Blackhawk Down In Deep Water. Suddenly the Obama administration has a foreign policy problem that does not permit simple blame-shifting to the previous presidency, and the problem has the face of the worthy Maersk Alabama’s Captain Richard Phillips. Joe Biden knows this is alarming and ignored his smug aide to comment that DNI Blair [...]

(Originally printed December 5, 2008) 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 for [...]

What an appropriate song to recap the past week of Obama WORMing. (And hey, Jonatha Brooke is just COOL.) My personal favorite is him having to have a press conference to clear up what he said about Iraq recently. And then having to have a press conference to clear up what he said in the [...]

Does the practice of female genital mutilation concern you? What about child marriage? Stoning female adulterers to death? Well don’t bring it up to the UN Human Rights Council because such talk is forbidden there. What say you? You mean it is verboten to ask the UN Human Rights Council to intervene in these barbaric [...]
