Intel Community: US No Longer World’s Sole Superpower by 2030

Filed Under Politics, World News | 40 Comments

At the rate the country is being sold out right from underneath us, spent into oblivion and handing over its sovereignty, I think 2030 is an under-aggressive estimate: A new report by the intelligence community projects that the United States will no longer be the world’s only superpower by 2030. “In terms of the indices [...]

Jay Carney: The President is Only Concerned About What Actually Happened in Benghazi, Not the Explanation Susan Rice and I Gave to the American People

Filed Under Nat'l Security, Politics, World News | 20 Comments

Jay Carney was in his usual form today: “What the president is worried about, Major, is what happened and why in Benghazi.

Report: China to Construct 220 Story Building in 90 Days — Then Take Another Year to Convince Anybody to Go Inside It

Filed Under World News | 29 Comments

The Obama administration believes China’s “vastly superior” infrastructure is something the U.S. should be emulating. I disagree. China’s “stimulus” building projects are faulty enough at normal speed, so I can only imagine how unsafe they’ll be after having been put together in a hurry: According to its engineers, this will be the tallest skyscraper in [...]

Hillary’s unkempt hair causes Egyptians to throw tomatoes at her motorcade

Filed Under Politics, World News | 27 Comments

Barack Obama was elected almost four years ago, which means the rest of the world loves us now… so this negative reaction to Hillary Clinton in Egypt must be because they hate her hairdo… or lack thereof: CAIRO (Reuters) – Protesters threw tomatoes and shoes at U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s motorcade on Sunday [...]

So How’s That ‘Arab Spring’ Spread of Freedom and Democracy Thing Working Out?

Filed Under Politics, Religion, World News | 25 Comments

I sure am glad that earlier this year President Obama pledged $800 million in US aid to help out the “Arab Spring” countries — Egypt in particular. What direction is that headed? The Muslim Brotherhood’s Mohammed Morsi has officially won Egypt’s presidential election and will be the country’s next president, the electoral commission has announced. [...]

Obama Scores a Couple More High Profile Endorsements

Filed Under Politics, World News | 12 Comments

I don’t know about you guys, but I’m re-considering Obama. He just won nods of approval from Larry Flynt and Fidel Castro’s niece. It doesn’t get any more credible than that.

Somebody at NATO Needs a Geography Lesson

Filed Under Corruption, Politics, World News | 11 Comments

One of the geography whizzes in the Obama administration must have had a hand in producing a new video from NATO promoting the upcoming summit in the host city, because Chicago is billed as the capital of Illinois: “More than 60 heads of state and government will meet to discuss crucial matters of security and [...]

Arab Spring Update: Egypt Set to Give Men New Rights; Women, eh, Not So Much

Filed Under Law, Politics, World News | 19 Comments

I’ll preface this with a reminder of what President Obama said about Egypt in February of last year: “Obviously, there is still a lot of work to be done in Egypt itself,” Obama said in the wake of the resignation of President Hosni Mubarak and the takeover of government by the army. “What we have [...]

Obama Admin. Expands ‘Livestock-Related Economic Opportunities’ in Kenya

Filed Under Politics, World News | 11 Comments

I have a sneaky suspicion that Obama’s brother George is about to get a lucrative, US taxpayer funded job as a cattle-driver at a dude ranch: Kenyan businesses lately are increasingly becoming recipients of U.S. government largesse, as the Obama Administration, among pursuing other endeavors, aims to expand “livestock-related economic opportunities” in that nation. Although [...]
