Will he answer? Or, is it time for another photo-op trip to get a burger with Joe, frozen custard with the kids, or maybe a round of golf? This is what North Korea had to say regarding the U.S. trailing a Nork ship that could possibly be carrying materials banned by a U.N. resolution passed after […]

You know, it’s not so much that Obama is on the wrong side of history, regarding Iran. He’s on no side of history. Even the BBC is getting rather cynical vis a vis Obama’s reticence to become engaged The White House has so far resisted calls to speak out more forcefully in support of Iranian […]

Via BNO News’ Twitter feed, waiting for it to come up on Reuters and other news sources Reuters: President Obama calls on the Iranian government to “stop all violent and unjust actions” against the Iranian people.

Over at The New Republic, a post by Jonathan Chaite entitled “Will the Conservatives Please Attempt An Argument? ” President Obama has taken a cautious tone toward the demonstrators in Iran, with his stated reason being that more open support would discredit their cause.

Have y’all seen this video yet? Â From the Chicago Tribune There’s plenty of room for “yes men” in the nation’s capital. Less for “yes, Ma’am.” Sen. Barbara Boxer’s suggestion to a general that she’d really rather be called “senator” has raised a few hackles here. “Could you say ‘senator’ instead of ‘ma’am?’ ” Boxer […]

Hmm, I wonder if Obama will say he is “deeply concerned,” but thinks that we can still negotiate with North Korea’s mad man Defense Secretary Robert Gates said he has ordered the U.S. military to take defensive measures should North Korea attempt to fire a ballistic missile toward Hawaii. “I think we are in a […]

More wacko-ness from PETA. On the bright side, at least we find out he is not a god or something Well, I guess it can’t be said that President Obama wouldn’t hurt a fly. The commander in chief was recently pestered by a fly during an interview. He swatted at the insect and killed the […]

From yesterday But at the same time, Obama said it would not be helpful if the United States was seen by the world as “meddling†in the issue. Today Iran accused the United States on Wednesday of “intolerable” meddling in its internal affairs, alleging for the first time that Washington has fueled a bitter postelection […]

The Congressional Budget Office came out with their assessment of ObamaCare Tuesday, and, it is not pretty “How are we going to pay for that, Mr. President?” Sen. John McCain has asked. That one question – how the nation really pays for health reform – just got a shocking wake up call. The Congressional Budget […]
