The real story is NOT that the outpost was "overrun" - the truth is that 45 Heroes successfully fought off an organized attack by hundreds of heavily-armed Taliban and al Queda.

The nuclear bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki prevented those dreadful scenarios. But, don't expect America's critics, who will use the anniversary of this occurrence to point the bony finger at Uncle Sam, to bring it up in their empty-headed, hand-wringing diatribes.
Those critics may not understand history, but they do understand human nature. They know that it is our tendency to focus on what has occurred without considering what might have happened had the action not taken place.
Consider Iraq. We can easily contemplate the economic costs and loss of life, as well as the myriad of other undeniable downsides of what has occurred. However, the downside of having taken another path cannot be so easily calculated -- and is therefore, often minimized. Such is the luxury of the critic.

The luxury of the critic indeed. Liberals love Monday-morning quarterbacking American military actions. You never hear them analyze neither, the consequences of not taking the action nor, by undermining those actions, how they themselves often bear much responsibility for difficulties, delays or less than complete success.

MITCHELL: Let me just say something about the message management. He didn't have reporters with him, he didn't have a press pool, he didn't do a press conference while he was on the ground in either Afghanistan or Iraq. What you're seeing is not reporters brought in. You're seeing selected pictures taken by the military, questions by the military, and what some would call fake interviews, because they're not interviews from a journalist. So, there's a real press issue here. Politically it's smart as can be. But we've not seen a presidential candidate do this, in my recollection, ever before.
--
And Andrea Mitchel is the only one complaining? If this was McCain, there would be nothing but wailing and gnashing of teeth from every news organization. Where is our vaunted 4th estate? Are they also going to be similarly obsequious for a President Obama? An arrogant incompetent President with a lap-dog press corps is a recipe for disaster.

Figure 1
Mean global surface temperature anomalies (C), 2001-2008
Since the phase-transition in mean global surface temperature late in 2001, a pronounced downtrend has set in. In the cold winter of 2007/8, record sea-ice extents were observed at both Poles. The January-to-January fall in temperature from 2007-2008 was the greatest since global records began in 1880. Data sources: Hadley Center monthly combined land and sea surface temperature anomalies; University of Alabama at Huntsville Microwave Sounding Unit monthly lower-troposphere anomalies; Linear regressions
[...]
To what extent, then, has humankind warmed the world, and how much warmer will the world become if the current rate of increase in anthropogenic CO2 emissions continues? Estimating "climate sensitivity" - the magnitude of the change in TS after doubling CO2 concentration from the pre-industrial 278 parts per million to ~550 ppm - is the central question in the scientific debate about the climate.
[...]
There is no good statistical basis for any such quantification, for the object to which it is applied is, in the formal sense, chaotic. The climate is "a complex, non-linear, chaotic object" that defies long-run prediction of its future states (IPCC, 2001), unless the initial state of its millions of variables is known to a precision that is in practice unattainable, as Lorenz (1963; and see Giorgi, 2005) concluded in the celebrated paper that founded chaos theory -
"Prediction of the sufficiently distant future is impossible by any method, unless the present conditions are known exactly. In view of the inevitable inaccuracy and incompleteness of weather observations, precise, very-long-range weather forecasting would seem to be non-existent."

If something has a direct benefit to an individual or a class of people, and a theoretical, abstract, or amorphous benefit to everybody else, realize that the proponent's intentions are to benefit the former, not the latter, no matter what bullshit they try to feed you.

The force is strong in this one. Lots of well-earned thumbs-down from the angry-asinine. Go stumble Roy right now. I'm not going anywhere.

Last month, Obama turned down John McCain's offer to join him in 10 town hall-style meetings, during which the two presidential nominees would answer questions directly from voters in small audiences. McCain thrives in such environments, because he is most comfortable engaging people one on one. His "straight talk," quick wit and ironic sense of humor endear him to voters. No matter whether or not one agrees with McCain, his answers always come across as thoughtful and candid, an appropriate quality for a candidate, as the two words share a Latin root.
I am not surprised that Obama turned down McCain's invitation. In informal venues, Obama would be forced to speak extemporaneously as he interacts with voters, whose questions tend to focus on concrete policy, and where abstract feel-goodisms do not suffice. It is during these informal interactions that Obama sometimes inadvertently insert into his remarks small moments of candor, which need to be promptly extinguished.
Obama's brief moments of candor reveal important things about his natural instincts and most deeply-held beliefs regarding important topics like the use of force and the motivations of certain voting groups. Last week, such a moment revealed that Obama understands something most Americans also acknowledge: that "mental distress" is not a valid reason to kill a child.
Which makes Obama's retreat from his remark all the more shameful. It reveals that for all his talk about being a new kind of politician, he is in fact precisely the kind Americans are tired of enduring ... the kind who places political ambition ahead of even his own most basic beliefs about fundamental matters of life and death.
--
An outstanding Human Events article posted on a great blog. This is the fundamental flaw in Obama: He is exactly the politician he claims not to be. His Machiavellian, on-the-fly position "clarifications" rival the Clintons at their worst moments of "triangulation." This is the behavior of pure ambition; of pure power-lust. He is willing to say anything he thinks will win him the presidency. What frightens me is that, unlike the Clintons, he doesn't appear to want it for the money or self-aggrandizement. He wants power simply because he wants to wield it; and, there is nothing scarier than an arrogant-incompetent megalomaniac.
