Dump this blowhard
pkronfield
by pkronfield  7-2-2008   
 This toon would be funny, except the empty suit Obama would not have the courage to strap on a jet aircraft. And Clark the war hero who criticizes McCain? This blowhard was a '66 grad of West Point. In the middle of a war, does he get out to the front as do his classmates? Hell no. He trots over to Oxford as a Rhodes Scholar for two years while his classmates are fighting and dying. He finally makes it over to 'Nam in '70 where he is a general's aide for 6 months, and finally commands a company for less than 1 month in combat where he is shot four times by a VC and evacuated to the U.S. where, after he recuperates from minor flesh wounds, takes up a teaching post back at West Point. And he criticizes John McCain! Birds of a feather fly together... and so do empty suits.

How McCain Can Win the Base
merrie
by merrie  3-25-2008    5
 Mr. Jindal, who was elected to Rep. David Vitter's seat when Mr. Vitter ran for U.S. Senate in 2004, was re-elected for a second term with 88% of the vote. That's not enough experience? It's as much experience in Congress as Barack Obama has to show for his three years. Oh, and by the way, Mr. Jindal, in his last term, had an American Conservative Union rating of 100, with 96 for both terms. In addition he has consistently taken the No New Taxes pledge proposed by Americans for Tax Reform. In 1991 he was a young Hill staffer working for Rep. Jim McCrery. One day Mr. McCrery asked him to look over some Medicare plans being proposed in committee. A couple of days later, he brought back to the boss a totally revised system that was so impressive that Mr. McCrery remembered him and in 1995 introduced him to Gov.-elect Murphy J. Foster Jr. Mr. Jindal, at the age of 24, was appointed secretary of the Louisiana Department of Health and Hospitals.

Senator Bill Bradley - Strong Words about Hillary Clinton
BobbyRutan
by BobbyRutan  3-8-2008   
 More: Clinton was the star guest at the Democratic party’s annual dinner in Canton, Mississippi, but the hall was barely half-full. Clinton went on to pledge in a contrived southern drawl that no matter who won Mississippi, “I’ll be there for you”. Obama said he was not going to be “drawn into a knife fight” and used humour to defuse the impact of the “red phone” ad. “What do people think I’m going to do? I’m going to answer the phone,” Obama said to laughter. “I’m going to find out what’s going on.” But he also charged that Clinton’s style of leadership was “to beat the other side into submission”.

Bill Clinton - The Big Inspiration
yamdablam
by yamdablam  12-13-2007   
 Its hard to criticize such an organisation that is involved with good charity works such as running hospitals homeless shelters and various other foundation. To paraphrase pike, they're just a porch. I bet this was not common knowledge when he was running for US president. Oh and he was a rhodes (a british lord) scholar to "cap" it all off. Wow, what a coincidence ;)!

A Sindhi Wedding Tradition
Gul Agha
by Gul Agha  8-21-2007   
 In parts of Thar, Sindh it was once common to have both a Hindu and a Muslim priest officiate at all weddings. The NY Times probably thought it curious enough but Sindhis would not be surprised by this ceremony, but would consider it natural given the spouses belong to different religions.

I support Feingod: make Bush accountable
gberke
by gberke  3-15-2006   
 Make Bush accountable as president. Not hide behind "who could have known" and "nice work, Brownie" and "WMD". Make him accountable BEFORE he invades Iran. Make him accountable for Chertoff and Abramoff and Cheney and Myers and Gonzalez and Homeland Security and Energy prices that fund Russia and Saudi Arabia and ignoring global warming... as if Iraq were not enough by itself!
