Nov 15, 2009 By JENNIFER LOVEN SINGAPORE — President Barack Obama and other world leaders agreed today that next month’s much-anticipated climate change summit will be merely a way station, not the once hoped-for end point, in the search for a worldwide global warming treaty. The 192-nation climate conference beginning in three weeks in Copenhagen [...]
Nov 15, 2009 By Caren Bohan SINGAPORE (Reuters) – U.S. President Barack Obama and other world leaders on Sunday supported delaying a legally binding climate pact until 2010 or even later, but European negotiators said the move did not imply weaker action. Some argued that legal technicalities might otherwise distract the talks in [...]
Nov 15, 2009 Now we have a little insight into why Obama said to not jump to conclusions about Nidal Hasan. Maj Nidal Hasan was an advisor to Obama’s Homeland Security team.. Look on page 29 of the Homeland Security Institute link below. http://www.gwumc.edu/hspi/old/PTTF_ProceedingsReport_05.19.09.pdf Social Bookmarking
November 15, 2009 by Austin Hill Does President Obama have “boundary” problems? That’s a fair question, because of his apparent unwillingness – or perhaps it’s an inability – to confront the deadly threat posed by many self-described Muslims. I say “many self-described Muslims,” because I’m not interested in debating who is a “real Muslim,” or [...]
November 15, 2009 by David R. Stokes Every time I read, view, or hear the latest attempt to portray Nidal Malik Hasan as a “loner” or “victim of racism” or “psychotic” – or (this may be my favorite) someone suffering from something called “PRE-traumatic stress disorder,” I am torn between the desire to scream [...]
By George Will (Archive) · Sunday, November 15, 2009 NEW YORK — The 20th century was 100 years of amplitude. It overflowed with barbarous fighting faiths, wars enveloping continents, and graphic journalism assaulting global audiences with scenes of shocking immediacy. The Spanish Civil War, although small in terms of the number of combatants, was perhaps [...]
Nov 14, 2009 By Monte Kuligowski An AP article was released today which purports to fact check Sarah Palin’s claims in her new book. It took a village of AP writers to denounce Palin under the guise of fact checking. Weighing in at 1,594 words, it’s a booklet against a book. Eleven writers in all [...]
November 15, 2009 Combined Joint Task Force – 82 PAO Eastern Afghanistan Provinces Host Regional Peace Jirga By AF Capt. Tony Wickman (From bottom right corner going clockwise): Dante Paradiso, U.S. Dept of State Rep to TF Mtn Warrior; Gul Sherzai, Nangarhar provincial gov.; Jamaluddin Badar, Nuristan provincial gov; Masood [...]
But he got the best the system can offer… Nov 15, 2009 By Jeffrey Lord Pennsylvania Sen. Arlen Specter wrote a book on health care. His fellow Democrats, fresh from routs in New Jersey and Virginia, may never forgive him. Like an unexploded political and literary roadside bomb, Mr. Specter’s book sits quietly in bookstores [...]
Pass it to restrain Congress’ profligate ways Nov 15, 2009 By Tim Mooney Congress is about to vote to extend America’s indebtedness above $12,000,000,000,000 – that’s 12 trillion! Our national debt grew last year by more than $1.4 trillion and will grow this year by $1.4 trillion. According to the Obama White House estimates, the [...]
