I found this video through a link at Pajamas Media, where it was dubbed “the creepiest Obama tribute video ever.” If that’s hyperbole and there’s a creepier one, I hope I never see it. This one is bad enough. It … Continue reading →
Allison Kaplan Summer translates an Obama interview with the Israeli news source Ynet that is due to appear on Friday. Asked how he would deal with the threat of Iran and whether he would support military action if diplomacy fails, … Continue reading →
