Every time you toss in a bid, your partner’s bid either undercuts you or they over bid of, God forbid, you find yourself bidding against them. Well, that’s what appears to be happening lately in the Obama administration. consider their […]
This is very good news. BREGA, Libya — As rebel forces in Libya began a cautious regrouping after a panicked retreat, Britain on Thursday offered new details about the defection of Libya’s foreign minister, Moussa Koussa, insisting that there had been no deal to lure him in return for immunity from prosecution.

If you haven’t heard of Operation Gunrunner, you should probably read up on it a bit. Start with Michelle’s link-filled post here, then move over to this post by Patterico.

Slowly, but surely, we’re taking back our schools from the big-money, big-power teachers’ union heads.

You”ll never guess which clunker of a program is going to get a second go. Wait, did I just give it away? Ready for another cash for clunkers […]
