We've noted the Obama administration's penchant for bullying America's allies and kowtowing to its adversaries. This Washington Post story presents another case-in-point -- our treatment of Afghan President Hamid Karzai. As Afghan presidents go, Karzai makes a good mayor of Kabul (in a bad year). Nonetheless, right now the U.S. needs Karzai and Karzai needs the U.S. Thus, in the words of one senior...

I am hardly the world's biggest Sarah Palin fan, but I am constantly amused by how rabid she makes the left, the very same people who insist she is unimportant while discussing her nonstop. For example the AP dedicated 11 fact-checkers to her new book. AP writers Matt Apuzzo, Sharon Theimer, Tom Raum, Rita Beamish, Beth Fouhy, H. Josef Hebert, Justin D. Pritchard, Garance Burke, Dan Joling and Lewis...

There are a lot of legitimate reasons to criticize Sarah Palin, her new book, and her policies, but you don't have to stoop to sexism to do it. Newsweek 's November 23 issue, however, does just that by publishing on its cover a photo of Palin in short running shorts and a fitted top, leaning against the American flag. Making matters worse is the equally offensive headline Newsweek editors chose to...

A lot of people don't think so. Karlyn Bowman writes : The pollsters are in overdrive measuring Sarah Palin’s popularity. Most of the new polls show that large majorities say she is unqualified to be president. To take just one, 70 percent in the CNN/Opinion Research Corporation poll gave that response. That’s what makes another finding in the same poll so interesting. Half say Vice President...

That he would “call out” those who misspent or wasted these valuable funds. Now we discover that not only has Uncle Joe failed miserably in his duties, but that [...]
