Yesterday I wrote about the UN being implicated by its own computer. Now it seems that the reprehensible George Galloway may have slipped up in his Senate testimony last May. Pity. And in the future I, for one, will pay … Continue reading →
You gotta love it: a computer error reveals another shabby UN action, this time a coverup of the explosive allegations of a connection between Syrian President Assad’s family and associates, and Hariri’s assassination in Lebanon: The United Nations withheld some … Continue reading →
Somehow I missed the following tidbit from a couple of days ago, so perhaps you did, too. New Hampshire’s Republican Senator Judd Gregg, known as a staunch fiscal conservative and chair of the Senate Budget Committee, has won a not … Continue reading →
