I generally do not do round-ups, as “alerting” people of stories on blogs bigger than mine seems quite pointless. That said, I found too much good stuff to not put it all in one place, if for no one else other than myself.
David’s Medienkritik:
Behind this lies the deeper ambivalence about Washington’s role. Most Europeans want [...]
What claptrap is this?
Barack Obama ended four wars during his first week as president. With just a few words and strokes of his pen, the president ended the war on terror, the war on Islam, the war on science and the war on women.
Let me tackle these in reverse order.
The war on women?
“On Jan. 23, [...]
Two possibilities: either the author of this post is very astute and a student of American politics, or she is a European lefty who is rejoicing at the loss suffered by the American right, the bane of her existence, and is simply trying to poke them in the eye with a stick. Either was, her [...]
In Iceland:
The first government collapse of the global economic crisis is about to yield the world’s first openly-gay leader. Johanna Sigurdardottir, a former air hostess, is expected to be sworn in as Iceland’s Prime Minister by the end of the week.
No word on whether Ms. Sigurdardottir, being the “first” of her demographic to take this [...]
Surprised me:
The head of the UN atomic watchdog, Mohamed ElBaradei, has cancelled planned interviews with the BBC in protest at the British broadcaster’s refusal to air a Gaza charity appeal, the IAEA said Wednesday.
A spokeswoman for the International Atomic Energy Agency said that the “director general has cancelled his scheduled BBC World Service TV and [...]
Jeez. Talk about a loose cannon…
Her blog has a post about the Ledbetter Act which increased the Statute of Limitations for sexual discrimination to “180 days after every paycheck” that is deemed disparate. Republican objections to the bill were that it would, on occasion, make it impossible to defend the discrimination suit since the suit [...]
A few days ago I received Inside Gitmo from Harper Collins. I did not order it, nor was there anything in the package other than the book that might tell me why it was sent to me. In any event, while at “Liberty Pundit” with Brian I used to receive books for review quite regularly [...]
Yeah, yeah, we’ve all heard about the uproar over Limbaugh’s “I hope Obama fails” remarks (I agree with him, by the way). The Democrats are now circulating a petition to tell “Rush what you think of his attacks.” Besides being a waste of time, I was happy that this article pointed out the other real [...]
I must admit, I had never read anything from Amanda Marcotte until I stumbled over to her blog from Common Sense Political Thought. This is what greeted me:
Now the squawking about the economic stimulus has moved onto stoking racist fears about ACORN. And yes, I mean racist—speaking as someone who hails from the land of [...]
I can’t believe that so many Republican would be willing to vote with Obama “because he is popular.” If you think the stimulus will not work, or if he is pushing measures that are contrary to your principles, then leave bi-partisanship at the door. Let Obama and liberals pass the bill by themselves and be [...]
Hot Air: “The locution ‘I want him to fail’ is not what you say the first week the man’s been inaugurated.”
Why not? He’s my President (although I did not vote for him), and I will treat him respectfully (unlike George Bush was treated), but why do I have to hope he is a success?
1. Obama [...]
Or so one can assume.
Jimmah!
Jimmy Carter told the “Today Show” that sure, Hamas can be trusted.
The former Democratic president also said that “some people” think Hamas is a terrorist group.
“Some people” being the European Union, an aggregation of war-averse, capitulating, liberal governments.
Hamas bears an “overwhelming responsibility” for the destruction of Gaza, a senior European Union [...]
