Torture Debate.
The Obama administration decision just announced to transfer 9-11 Devil KSM to New York to stand trial for mass murder in a Federal court looks to be laden with risks. The Justice Department states that it will seek the death penalty. Right away, how does KSM get [...]

In “President Obama’s Ambitious Agenda on Crash Course With Fiscal Realities,” Stu Varney, on Fox News’s America’s Newsroom, exposed a ruinous weakness in Obama’s reckless, contraindicated spending spree: Tax revenues are down 25% (!), and April 15th is NOT going to be a lucrative day for the U.S. government. With escalating unemployment, and more and [...]

Mind you, I received the following from a downcast Obama supporter and longtime pal who worked ’round the clock for Barack. Hey, we tried to warn these people, didn’t we, that he does not care about, or know about, policy. They dismissed us as racists and Republicans. No. Our candidate, Hillary Clinton, promised to end [...]

Bumped up from March 4th. Why promote a story that’s nearly a month old? In a recent live chat, people were aghast by NYT columnist Paul Krugman’s remarks about Obama’s timid stimulus plan. Here’s why: An effective stimulus has to make the economy sizzle with a rapid-fire, mammoth infusion of cash into the economy-at-large, which [...]

Here we have some honest-to-god twuthiness from the one and only Jon Stewart, a critical perspective to keep in mind to all of us who are bashing the Democrats’ plans (h/t Larry Johnson, who’s a Daily Show addict):
Republicans debate the stimulus bill, forgetting that C-SPAN doesn’t destroy old tapes when a new administration steps in.

Juan Williams authored a thoughtful op-ed today about how Obama should be judged as POTUS.
If his presidency is to represent the full power of the idea that black Americans are just like everyone else — fully human and fully capable of intellect, courage and patriotism — then Barack Obama has to be subject to the [...]

NEWS UPDATE: “Israel Declares Cease-Fire; Hamas Says It Will Fight On.”
