I thought twice about doing this post, mainly because I am sure most of the conservative bloggers out there are doing a post on this subject in one manner or another. But I thought it was important to point out a couple of salient points. First, the quote. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid of Nevada described [...]

In 10 short months, Barack Obama has done much to dissolve the close relationship with India that took decades to build, and now will have to be rebuilt again…without the public or our media noticing at all. During the Cold War, India led the non-aligned movement of third world countries trying to stay out of [...]

Former President Bill Clinton went to the Senate on Tuesday in order to lobby Senators to pass health care quickly. His pitch? That the Democrats needed to pass health care reform to ensure re-election next year. Um, what? Yup. Mr. Clinton’s argument goes like this: the Democrats wipeout in 1994 was not because the liberals [...]

However, the more I think about this, this event more than any other is a wake up call for our failure on diplomacy with rogue [...]

http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/03/27/gop.comeback/index.html http://www.cnn.com/2009/WORLD/meast/03/25/iraq.reconciliation/index.html For all the criticism and mistakes (yes, there were too many mistakes), there is one thing that is clear now. Former President George W. Bush alone assured the U.S. will be victorious in Iraq. I know, liberals can’t stand that, but it is a fact. Without Bush, we wouldn’t have been in Iraq, [...]

Oh, and it gets better: we may be providing them assistance to live. That is right; we may pay these guys welfare once they are released. Brilliant. “If we [...]

After 9/11, India was actually the first country to confirm their solidarity with America. From a country that was the leader of the non-aligned nations during the Cold War (but always had greater affinity for the Soviet Union), India has [...]

We have heard Republicans throw the derogatory comment around since last year. But now, after seeing the first couple months of the Obama Administration, one has to wonder. And the parrellels are staggering, and worrying. Mr. Obama, like Jimmy Carter, was a new voice from outside Washington. [...]

http://www.cnn.com/2009/POLITICS/03/16/AIG.bonuses/index.html AIG has been attacked from all sides regarding its awarding of $165 million in bonuses this weekend. Mr. Obama was furious about the bonuses, and has asked his administration to see what is to be done. New York Attorney General Andrew Cuomo jumped on the bandwagon, demanding that AIG give him a list of [...]

http://www.cnn.com/2009/SHOWBIZ/TV/03/13/cramer.stewart.reaction/index.html This was as pathetic a performance on national TV as I have seen ever; maybe Bill Clinton’s address to the DNC in 1988 comes close. What happened, Cramer, lost your backbone? Easy to bloviate when you have no one to argue against. I don’t know how Cramer will have the audacity to show his [...]
