I want to know the names of any and all Muslim countries in which President Barack Obama has lived. After all, as he told an Al Arabiya interviewer Monday night, he has lived in more than one. In a post yesterday, I brought to light the fact that he had responded to a question from [...]

Taliban PR Flaks Compare Obama to Soviets and — Oh, My God — Even to President George W. Bush!
November 14th, 2008 · No Comments
Earlier this week, Rep. Paul Broun (R-Ga.) drew criticism from liberals for saying he fears President-elect Barack Obama will establish a Gestapo-like security force to impose a Marxist or fascist dictatorship. I wonder, however, how those same liberals will react upon learning that representatives of the Taliban are comparing the president-elect to both the leaders [...]

British PM to Issue Call for New World Order?
November 9th, 2008 · No Comments
Apparently, a single mention of the need for a “truly global society” will not be enough for British Prime Minister Gordon Brown. According to a Reuters report, excerpts from the keynote foreign policy speech Brown will deliver Monday include at least two such mentions.

Is Susan Rice A Good Choice for U.N. Ambassador?
November 6th, 2008 · 4 Comments
Susan Rice is back in the news today, mentioned as a possible choice to serve as our nation’s ambassador to the United Nations. But is this woman a good choice for such a high-profile position? Not to be confused with current Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice, Susan Rice is a top Barack Obama foreign policy [...]

Twelve ‘Dinosaurs’ Endorse Barack Obama
October 12th, 2008 · No Comments
Editor & Publisher, self-described as “America’s oldest journal covering the newspaper industry,” ran a piece today which highlighted news that 12 newspapers had endorsed Barack Obama today. A look at some of those endorsements helps explain why, perhaps, the newspaper industry (a.k.a., “the dinosaurs”) is facing some of its worst times ever. I didn’t have [...]

On One Foreign Policy Matter, I Trust Sarah Palin
October 2nd, 2008 · 2 Comments
Given the choice between having Sarah Palin or Joe Biden make the decision about a little-publicized proposal for new construction in the nation’s 49th state, I’d choose the Alaska governor every time. Why? Because I’m convinced her foreign policy instincts are better than the six-term senator from Delaware. To date, only three construction projects in [...]
