* 'Europe Undermining African Debt Relief?' ...

The US may find itself surprised to be surpassed in fiscal conservatism by Luxembourg, Austria, and Belgium. What Kiekens proposes actually matches the general rhetoric of the Live-8 organizers, who pointedly insisted that aid would require the establishment of political reforms. Kiekens and the European countries involved simply propose extending this sensible prerequisite to debt relief as well as explicit aid payments.

*Jihad-o-thugs :

It's about time we get some rational thought processes involved instead of following some socialist agenda and letting these Jihad-o-thugs free. Personally I'd rather these Jihad-O-Thugs be in a prison in Afghanistan instead of the nice air conditioned resort they are in now (and take away their cartoon books!). It's such a joke when these Jihad-o-thugs, hating America and Americans, suddenly cry to use the American justice system like a get-out-of-jail free card

--thanks JustaDog!
* MSM :

NYT : Upholding the journalistic integrity of The New York Times requires a lot of care.
Malkin : Read (snort) the (snort) whole (snort) thing (snort).

--thanks Michelle!
* MSM, again :

LAT : When we make mistakes, we quickly and forthrightly correct the record
Patterico :The paper has just surreptitiously fixed a substantive error in the Web version of an article — without acknowledging the error that ran in the print version

--thanks Patterico!

Code Pink marches, sanity counters :

Perpetual surrender made France what it is today. With white flags and yellow streaks,
Code Pink's trying to out-France the French. Impossible?--perhaps. Peaceful, just or humane?--NFW.
