The Silence of Henry Waxman
My buddy Mike Mejia wrote the following, "The Silence of Henry Waxman," about the Sibel Edmonds case. The Silence of Henry Waxman By Mike Mejia And so it was, that in November, 2006, the American people cried for change and reform, an end to the quagmire in Iraq, as well as to the open and crass corruption of Dennis Hastert, Tom Delay and their fellow Congressional Republicans. The Democrats were swept into power on a wave of disgust at the decadence and decay that had enveloped D.C., taking...

Former World Bank executive appointed Palestinian PM by Abbas
No, this is not a joke. The BBC just reported that Abbas appointed a new prime minister, Salam Fayyad, as Prime Minister of Fatah-controlled Palestine.

While this might lead a naive person to conclude that the White House is accepting the endangerment of all of Israel, this really...
