A Question: If a person is for US involvement in Afghanistan, perhaps with the military playing a role, does that make the person a War Hawk? I think the answer is a qualified no, not necessarily. I’ve been reading Josh Mull as usual. I agree with a trend he mentioned in a recent post – opposition to the “War in ... [Link]

This week is all about hiring, firing, a wedding—oh, and stripping. The most overblown Wedding of the Year/Century is finally upon us, and Chelsea Clinton is going to say “I do” to longtime boyfriend Marc Mezvinsky this weekend in the formerly sleepy hamlet of Rhinebeck, New York.
