This one is simple - surveillance of Nunes for his collusion with those under investigation for cooperating with a foreign state. We'll see how much he likes it, then. Hell, some dastardly liberal reporter should ask him how he'd like it, hypothetically, if HIS communications were being monitored without a warrant. It would be fun to have his response to that question on record.
Painting this as having "fallen for al Qaida's trap" ignores that the Bush/Cheney administration was looking for an excuse, any excuse, to respond how they did. If not 9/11, they would've found another reason to go into Iraq. The only difference would be that the original token effort in Afghanistan would've been avoided.
1) Is the race of the victim important?
2) If you answer "yes" to question #1, then why not mention the race of the three officers who assaulted the Asian doctor?
Bowling Green KENTUCKY. Please correct.
We can't really laugh at Trump's fake news/alternative facts when we don't get the most basic fact correct ourselves, can we?
Israel is the little douchebag who feels free to pick fights because he knows his bigger, stronger friends are obligated to watch his back. Everybody's got one.
We don't need a new center. We've got one of those already. We have a rightwing party and a centrist party. What we need is a true leftwing party, and then our current "center" will be just that.
I don't think it's a matter of not trusting this President, and in fact, spinning it that way let's those 47 Senators off the hook.
No, I think that this is like everything else Obama has tried to do - the Republicans aren't afraid it will fail, they're afraid it will succeed, thus denying them a war they really, really want.
It's even more of a slap in the face to US citizens when you consider that every US taxpayer dollar given to Israel frees up an Israeli taxpayer dollar that can then be spent giving Israeli citizens universal healthcare, topnotch education, improved infrastructure, etc. It's criminal IMO,
I know that as a liberal I'm supposed to be happy with this NYT piece, but it actually aggravates me. Other than in those first initial, confusing hours, when was that controversial video ever a "competing storyline"? It was never "a storyline" - except as a strawman created by the rightwing. The NYT basically just legitimized that strawman before debunking it.
Correct me if I'm wrong, Professor, but I seem to recall that we threw a whole lot of money/favors "New Europe's" way in order to secure their cooperation back in 2003.
Could it be a simple question of bribery, or in this case, a lack thereof?
Is anyone really surprised that the US would use its military might and intelligence capabilities to protect American business interests/corporate profits? After all, that's the type of welfare that our Elites actually do support.
Doctor Cole - please delve further into this: "Ansar al-Shariah is alleged to be the group behind the consulate attack, though its leaders deny it".
This would seem like an interesting new development to me, since historically these radical groups are usually fighting to TAKE credit for any damage inflicted upon the U.S.
It's not at all hard to admit that - but I still don't want US taxdollars disappearing into the coffers of a corrupt Iraqi government.
We might need to use these to power desalinization plants, addressing two problems simultaneously.

Islamic State takes credit for two suicide bombings inside Tehran - coincidence, or more Saudi mischief?

I think Turkey is sitting back, waiting/hoping for ISIL to weaken its Kurdish problem, after which Turkey will move against ISIL.
It's the old "two birds with one stone" strategy.
If the US intervenes with ground troops, that's even better from Turkey's perspective.

Actually, there is one other country that could use that aid money to create jobs - the United States.
I don't see anything in the body of the article alluding to the "Tea Party law" mentioned in the headline.
I'm not sure I believe anything the Pakistani government says, considering that they were harboring bin Laden.
Ironic that they're demanding a certain level of racial/religious purity, no?

Cruz gets no credit as he immediately urge his colleagues to restore funding to the defense and intelligence apparatus.
So, essentially we're "Mo", threatening to knock-together the heads of the other two miscreant stooges?
