If President Bush had any foresight at all, he’d intervene in the Darfur mayhem just to slice a wedge in the antiwar movement. President Nixon attempted to do such a thing in the early 1970s when his administration helped establish the Environmental Protection Agency. Nixon thought the antiwar movement at the time was largely made … Continue reading “Save Darfur?”

Since the 2000 election cycle, Blum has contributed … Continue reading “The Democrats’
Daddy Warbucks”

It doesn’t even have to be an election year to get the progressives fired up. They just don’t seem to get it. "How can you … Continue reading “Senator Feinstein’s War Profiteering”

The Democrats are getting ready for the upcoming election season. Having done so poorly for the past, well, decade or so, they may finally be seeing an opportunity to capitalize on one of the Bush administration’s many misfortunes.

There aren’t many elected officials in Washington who want to throw the gauntlet down on Iran more than Hillary Clinton.
