Or maybe even tomorrow. It's Thanksgiving. Get a life. Go now, git! [...] Enjoy this short clip of Ronald Reagan. And enjoy this holiday however you like to celebrate it.

So says the British Spectator:
'The Afghan issue has made clear the astonishing disregard with which Mr Obama treats Britain . As he decides how many more troops to send to Afghanistan – a decision which will fundamentally affect the scope of the' [...]

And not much left domestically, MC might add. We were struck by the always readable if sometimes predictable Leon Wieseltier's "Washington Diarist" back page ruminations in the most recent issue of The New Republic.
Yes, MC knows, calling someone a fool is hardly elevated discourse, incisive analysis or shrewd observation. It's akin to "Shut up," he explained. Still, MC goes with fool and so will you when you read about the Attorney General's appearance before the Senate Judiciary Committee today. [...]
Have you noticed that increasingly in the "age of Obama" Americans have to turn to other English language news outlets to read the truth about our own country? MC has and is none too pleased about it although grateful the internet hasn't been taken over by' [...]

MC realizes that the photo above is from when the Berlin Wall wasn't really a proper wall. And certainly there are hundreds of images to choose from this day twenty years ago when the DDR mistakenly opened its borders. We like this photo best, however, because' [...]

Unexpected good news from Russia: President Dmitri Medvedev warned that Russians have lost their sense of horror over the unspeakable crimes of Joseph Stalin.

New York's congressional district 23 special election is shaping up to be a fascinating exercise in hope and despair within the GOP. Local and national bigs picked Dede Scozzafava to be the republican in the race but one would be hard put to identify her as' [...]
MC isn't the gambling type but we wish we would have placed bets with our doe-eyed liberal friends who cooed, to mix metaphors, about what progress Obama represented when it comes to Iran. Recall that by shamefully staying silent for more than a week in the' [...]

One half of MC threw up on himself while the other half tore out her hair upon learning that the Vapid One won the 2009 Nobel Peace prize. What a way to start the day! Upon reflection:

Click on the image above to enlarge and be further appalled. Way to go, Minnesota. That includes squish Republicans too, thank you.
Just because one can does not mean one should: this elemental bit of life's grown up logic appears to have escaped our friends at Minnesota Democrats Exposed (MDE). The blog is well known, infamous in some quarters and widely-read. Consequently we were dismayed to see it [...]
