President Obama’s Too-Rosy Vision Of Postwar Iraq — Washington Post editorial IN THE opening statement of his press conference Monday with Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki, President Obama managed to assert no fewer than five times that the war in Iraq is ending. No doubt the president’s reelection campaign hopes that Americans will absorb that message; but we wonder about the thoughts of Iraqis… Broadcasting platform : YouTube Source : War News Updates Discovery Date : 13/12/2011 08:43 Number of articles : 2
Due to all the candidates bailing competing interests, professional blowhard Donald Trump will no longer moderate a GOP presidential debate in Iowa later this month. Trump explained he is pulling out of the event for two made-up reasons: He’s not convinced there’s a strong enough Republican challenger in the field. He wants the option to run himself (which he won’t, but often threatens to). In reality, several leading candidates had already made it clear they wouldn’t participate in a debate moderated by Trump. Ron Paul basically called it circus-like and beneath the presidency. Mitt Romney, Rick Perry, and Michele Bachmann also declined to attend. Trump called them all cowards , saying it is “very important to me that the right candidate be chosen to defeat the destructive Obama Administration, but if that Republican, in my opinion, is not the right [one], I am not giving up my right to run as an Independent.” “Therefore, so that there is no conflict of interest within the Republican Party, I have decided not to be the moderator of the Newsmax debate.” Now that is 100 percent BS . Still, do you think he should run?
U.S. Asks Iran To Return Spy Drone — L.A. Times The Defense secretary says he doesn’t expect Tehran to comply. Iran says it is planning to clone and mass produce the bat-winged craft for use against its enemies.

High, persistent unemployment and a sluggish economy underscore what all but the most-dedicated supporters of Barack Obama know to be true: The president’s 2009 stimulus program was a massively expensive bust. Understanding why the stimulus failed is an important step in understanding how the government can—and cannot—goose economic recovery. To get a better sense of how and where the stimulus went… Broadcasting platform : YouTube Source : Reason Magazine – Hit & Run Discovery Date : 08/12/2011 15:18 Number of articles : 2

President Obama apparently channeled Teddy Roosevelt today. Or maybe it was Elizabeth Warren . Anyway, check out the video — full transcript of the whole speech here . Obama on ‘Trickle Down’ Economics: ‘It Doesn’t Work, It Has Never Worked’ (The phrase comes to mind: “Don’t piss on me and tell me it’s trickle-down.”) This is Elizabeth Warren’s moment — hers and the various and sundry Occupys.

As if the Republican presidential race didn’t already feel like a a reality show, Donald Trump is pairing up with conservative magazine and website Newsmax to moderate a presidential debate in Des Moines, Iowa, on December 27. “Our readers and the grassroots really love Trump,” said Newsmax CEO Christopher Ruddy. That they do, hilariously. From an entertainment standpoint, can you not? Greatest. Presidential. Debate. Ever . Trump’s role in the debate , which will be broadcast on the cable network Ion Television, marks another memorable moment in a primary season that has been an unpredictable, publicity-driven, circus-like spectacle for months now. The Donald toyed with running for president earlier this year and ran his mouth about Barack Obama’s birth certificate until he was blue in the face. He ultimately declined against getting into the race and has not endorsed a candidate. The debate, which will not be limited to a specific topic like national security or the economy, is set to happen just a week before the Iowa caucuses, and will be called the Newsmax Ion Television 2012 Presidential Debate. Ron Paul and Jon Huntsman have already declined invitations to participate, with the former bashing the event as beneath the office of the presidency. Herman Cain dropped out of the race yesterday, so he won’t be there either.
The federal government is in the midst of a crackdown on medical marijuana dispensaries across the state of California.
