Helicopters on the mountain

The New Neo Posted on August 11, 2014 by neoAugust 11, 2014

Too little, too late. At least for the moment, though, our assistance seems to have actually assisted the Kurds, although Maliki is playing political games and may be digging in and refusing to relinquish power. [NOTE: The title of this … Continue reading →

Musings on a Sunday

The New Neo Posted on August 10, 2014 by neoAugust 10, 2014

This and that… Let me make this clear at the outset: I do not think Romney should run in 2016, and I do not think he will run in 2016. That said, I agree with this article that points out … Continue reading →

A little too Cozy for me

The New Neo Posted on August 9, 2014 by neoAugust 9, 2014

Somebody’s been making a ton of money off Cozy Classics, which are board picture books for toddlers. They feature a single word per each of twelve pages and are meant mostly to amuse their parents, I would guess: Read the … Continue reading →

ISIS, the rough beast

The New Neo Posted on August 9, 2014 by neoAugust 9, 2014

Read this, and think of ISIS: THE SECOND COMING (W.B Yeats) Turning and turning in the widening gyre The falcon cannot hear the falconer; Things fall apart; the centre cannot hold; Mere anarchy is loosed upon the world, The blood-dimmed … Continue reading →

Obama’s tough love towards Iraq: that’ll teach ’em

The New Neo Posted on August 9, 2014 by neoAugust 9, 2014

Quite some time ago I came to the point of having difficulty reading Obama’s speeches and interviews in full. I don’t mean cognitive difficulty; I understand them well enough. I mean a weariness at the overwhelming combination of factual errors, … Continue reading →

Peace Prize in our time

The New Neo Posted on August 8, 2014 by neoAugust 8, 2014

That Nobel Peace Prize for Obama certainly was premature, wasn’t it? Since he has become president, it’s been a challenge to name a part of the world that has not gotten worse rather than better. Turns out that America as … Continue reading →

John Hinderaker on Obama’s bombing announcement

The New Neo Posted on August 8, 2014 by neoAugust 8, 2014

Platitudes are not policy. At least, they shouldn’t be. But they’re all Obama’s got. Read the whole thing. Does Obama actually believe his own gobbledegook? Hinderaker seems to think so, but I have grave doubts.

Who is Snowden, what is he?

The New Neo Posted on August 8, 2014 by neoAugust 8, 2014

Here’s an interesting interview with Edward Jay Epstein on Edward Snowden, found at Powerline: If you look back, I figured out very early on that Snowden had only taken the Booz job in order to steal the files. The timeline … Continue reading →

Obama orders airstrikes—perhaps

The New Neo Posted on August 7, 2014 by neoAugust 7, 2014

[NOTE: I originally put this post up a little while ago as an update to the post right below it. But just in case many of you fail to notice it, I thought I’d put it up here as a … Continue reading →

Genocide in Iraq: the plight of the Yazidi

The New Neo Posted on August 7, 2014 by neoAugust 8, 2014

[See updates at end of post] Shortly after 9/11 I discovered blogs, and I remember reading a quip that caught my eye. I don’t remember who wrote it, but it went something like this: “I just realized what the problem … Continue reading →

The war on the war on women

The New Neo Posted on August 7, 2014 by neoAugust 7, 2014

This seems like an exceptionally worthy cause: The UP Project, which stands for “Unlocking Potential,” will seek to help Republicans win back the Senate by directly confronting Democrats and their “war on women” narrative. But unlike other super PACs, the … Continue reading →

President Humpty

The New Neo Posted on August 7, 2014 by neoAugust 7, 2014

This guy understands something that not all people who criticize Obama recognize: that sowing chaos and destruction was Obama’s intent. No, not in the sense that each and every result was planned for in its details, or even its broad … Continue reading →
