As soon as Obama was elected it was a foregone conclusion that this would be the result in Iraq—that the country would be taken over by the worst forces in the area. Since then, it’s just been the slow denouement: … Continue reading →
In a segment I just heard on Fox’s Kelly File about the current immigration crisis, Dennis Michael Lynch predicted that things are due to get a lot worse soon, because entire villages in Central America are practically being emptied out … Continue reading →
But I should have. I should have. In a classified briefing, reportedly: White House Blames Hagel For Bergdahl Swap Controversy, Says He Made “Final Call.” Success has many fathers, failure is an orphan. [Hat tip: commenter “jack.”]
