Moises Saman for The New York Times At a bazaar in Charikar, north of Kabul, many Afghans said they felt vulnerable to the Taliban, unprotected by their own government or the American forces. yeah, no shit... In bazaars and university corridors across the country, eight years of war have left people exhausted and impatient. They are increasingly skeptical that the Taliban can be defeated. Nearly everyone...

Here`s a chilling excerpt from a new movie about Daniel Ellsberg and the Pentagon Papers , which Ellsberg leaked to Neil Sheehan of the New York Times exposing the lies about the Vietnam War (among other things). If you haven`t read the Pentagon Papers I can tell you it`s an enlightening experience to say the very least. It may shake your confidence in official leadership a bit, but that`s not necessarily...

An interesting take by the Guardian on the crescendo of poppyness as Remembrance Sunday approaches.. “An observer from another planet might suppose tomorrow’s Remembrance Day ceremonies would at the least be tinged with anger, and might provoke bitter protest. They will not, of course, despite the growing protests of some soldiers’ families. That is no thanks to the dubious new interpretation...

November is a great time to remove lawn: Summer turf varieties are going dormant while winter varieties need replanting anyway. Also, this month is ideal for planting perennials and ground covers. The soil is warm enough to encourage healthy root growth, and the coming winter rain will keep it deeply watered. But how do you take that first step and ditch the grass? There are three basic methods. ...

I'm starting to feel sorry for the grass-roots conservatives. They keep getting saddled with embarrassing names. First they were Teabaggers, now they're Guy Fawkers. Everyone's so busy laughing at the ridiculous monikers, they're not taking the time to actually listen to what the protesters have to say and laugh at that.

Former Republican congressman Vin Weber said he sees the Democrats in "a difficult position. A year ago, they thought they were entering a new progressive era. It was 1932 again.

Still talking about what NY-23 meant. Why do we have political parties? To raise money. Run general campaigns and help specific candidates. To channel volunteers to campaigns where they're needed. But the main thing is to provide voters with candidates who fit within an ideological category. That's why people vote straight tickets, because they trust that candidates running as Republicans or Democrats,...

Conservative MEP's Daniel Hannan and Roger Helmer quit their frontbench posts to concentrate on campaigning for a referendum on Europe after David Cameron said it was pointless to hold a referendum on the Lisbon Treaty now it has been signed. The comments by a French government minister who branded the Tories' new European policy "pathetic" may even help them in the short term polls given...

We don’t normally scrutinize the meaning of municipal races for county and state races. But Rockville is no ordinary municipality. It is the county seat and home to some of Montgomery’s most prominent players. And Challenger Phyllis Marcuccio’s upset win over incumbent Mayor Susan Hoffmann is a noteworthy event. Is there some message here for the rest of us? Marcuccio, a two-term...

PARIS – When Chelsea dangled its wealth and star players in front of him, Gael Kakuta did what any teenage footballing prodigy from a modest background might do: He lost his head. The contract he had signed with the French club that nurtured him from age 8 was cast aside. For that, Kakuta and Chelsea are now paying a very heavy price. "He cracked, as one would crack for a pretty woman," says Eric Assadourian,...
