It was a shock to very few I am sure that the commission appointed by Sarah Palin found that the Alaska Governor “deserves” a $25,000 raise. It was a bit more surprising however that Palin didn’t seek, doesn’t want pay raise. At least it seems that way on the surface, until you read spokesperson Bill [...]

Clearly, “being greeted as liberators” is far different than they expected to be. At least it is different than I expected. First they trashed a poster of Bush with a shoe back a month or so ago, and now they tried to do the same in person. I don’t think the term “winning” means what [...]

Look, I understand that government bailouts are not very popular. Nobody, and I mean nobody wants to finance private business, and that is all well and good, but there is no arguing that there are definitely times (like now) that it needs to be considered. What is troubling, is not that people are trying to [...]

If you listened to John McCain, Sarah Palin, Joe Lieberman or any of the crazed wingnuts during the election, you would have thought that Osama Bin Laden and the rest of al-Qaida would have been buying townhouses in suburban Washington once Obama won the election. It was going to be all love and admiration with [...]

Back in the early days of the Iraqi war, we were treated to what sounded like a silly joke daily by Muhammed Saeed al-Sahaf, or as he was come to be known “Bagdad Bob.” The Iraqi Information Minister, would on an almost daily basis provide a quote or a statement on behalf of the Iraqi [...]

I had been wondering when anybody of the “deadlines for withdrawal = defeat” rhetoric was going to start acknowledging the agreement that the White House and the Iraqi government was working on. Certainly, I understand it didn’t work with their election plans, so they needed to keep it quiet then, but now that it has [...]
