[UPDATE FROM LARRY JOHNSON–Great Piece by Nancy. I’ve inserted the clip of what Barack told O’Reilly. Barack has a problem. He now insists no one envisioned the surge success. Nope. Wrong. McCain staked that position out early on and reaps the benefit.]
Obama flipped on the troop surge again or […]

As one might expect, things are not all sweetness and light at the Convention (and I will freely admit, up front, that I plan to watch very little of it. No way in HELL do I want to watch Michelle Obama speak, or even Barack, for that matter. I don’t need to hear Michelle’s arrogant […]

I am addicted to the Olympics. I LOVE sports, and am so happy when the Olympics come along. Sleep deprived, but happy. Anyway, Oxygen is one of NBC’s channels (who knew?), and has had different events in the evenings, like almost ALL of the Equestrian events, and synchronized swimming (hey, it’s HARD - it takes […]

Real Clear Politics, Mona Charen, August 14, 2008:
It was a near perfect laboratory test — the sort that real life rarely provides until it’s too late — for how the two nominees for president would respond to an international emergency. (It also tested the current president — more on that in a moment.) Sen. Obama […]

Let’s see if I got this right, Obama is calling for:
1) United Nations Security Council Resolution condemning Russia. Problem: Russia is a Permanent Member of the United Nations with Security Council and thus has veto power over any resolution. Sure you can have a debate at the Security Council, actually there already have been, but […]

He’s Willing to be Putin’s Pigeon
So He Can Go Body Surfing
On the day after Russia invaded Georgia, Barack Obama urged even-handed “restraint” on both sides without mentioning Russia by name or rebuking its aggression. Thus Obama proposed his “Rodney King Doctrine,” after the African-American taxi driver, beaten by Los Angeles policemen in 1991, who plaintively […]

While this blog does not, and has no plans to, endorse John McCain for president, we continue to be impressed with his in-depth knowledge of the crisis in Georgia, and how very important it is to distinguish his statements from the single, vague statement by Barack Obama that any ignorant public relations person could have […]

(I haven’t gotten anything from Obama’s camp. Am searching for a statement. Of course, he’ll have to have someone write the entire thing for him. God, I hope there’s a press conference today, and the press ask him about this crisis. UPDATE at 9:23 a.m. PT — Six minutes ago the A.P. posted […]
