A simpler solution?

Posted by Katie Thompson on July 20, 2011 5 Comments

With the August 2 deadline quickly approaching, there's been a lot of talk about the debt plans bouncing around Congress - Paul Ryan's plan; Cut, Cap, and Balance; McConnell's divisive plan; Obama's largely nonexistent $4 trillion idea, etc. But there's another solution out there: the...

The Daily Caller is running a report that Michele Bachmann suffers from frequent severe migraines and is heavily medicated, rendering her incapacitated for days at a time. The sourcing is entirely from anonymous former aides. I don't know if the story is true, or even if...

At least if this NY Times report that the prosecution failed to disclose that crucial computer evidence contradicted the prosecutors' trial claims is true: The Orange County Sheriff’s Office had used the software to validate its finding that Ms. Anthony had searched for information about chloroform...

There are parts of Steve Wynn's anti-Obama "rant" which have received more attention, but this is the part that is key to me. It's been something I've been writing about since before the election, the Obama effect. It's why Obama owns the job losses in the...

What will debt ceiling victory look like?

Posted by William A. Jacobson on July 18, 2011 44 Comments

I'm only able to follow today's debt ceiling posturing and bickering on an infrequent basis. Looks like Repulicans are looking for a single or double, something along the lines of modest spending cuts with no tax increase, with the 2012 presidential election to be the home run...

Why are there homeless people in San Francisco?

Posted by William A. Jacobson on July 18, 2011 47 Comments

As you know, I'm visiting here. And one thing I've noticed is that there are quite a few homeless people. Why are the people of San Francisco so heartless? They must all be Tea Party supporters. Why don't the politicians here care about the poor? They must be Republicans. How can...

Islamist-Leftist Anti-Israel Coalition in … Tunisia

I have written often about the willingness of Islamists and Leftists to cooperate when it comes to an anti-Israel agenda. That coalition has expanded its base from Europe and the United States to the birthplace of the Arab Spring: Early this month, the authority in charge...

I admit it, I haven't been following the break-up of The Sudan. But now there is a South Sudan, and it isn't your father's Sudan. Among other things, South Sudan will be quick to establish relations with Israel: South Sudan, already recognised by Israel, will forge relations with...
