Chile joyous at clockwork-like miner rescue

Mining is Chile's lifeblood, providing 40 percent of state earnings, and Pinera put his mining minister and the operations chief of state-owned Codelco, the country's biggest company, in charge of the rescue. It went so well that its managers abandoned what a legion of journalists had deemed an ultraconservative plan for restricting images of the rescue...

The Non-Witch Debater

 

Tonight, political eyes will shift to Delaware where Senate candidates Christine O'Donnell and Chris Coons are meeting for their first debate. With control of the senate lagging by one or two seats according to the Election Oracle, and polls showing the non-witch 18 points down, Republicans should be cursing the purge of centrist Congressman Mike Castle, who was expected to win the race easily.

Yemen's al-Qaida of the Arabian Peninsula is offering chilling magazine tips to would-be militants on how to kill Americans.

"A random hit at a crowded restaurant in Washington, D.C. at lunch . . . might end up knocking out a few government employees," writes one of the authors in the second edition of the group's online, English-language magazine, according to the private SITE Intelligence Group.

Yup — the president has family ties to none other than Sarah Palin, according to the genealogists at Ancestry.com, a discovery the family history site made when looking for connections between political foes.

And that's not all — Obama also is apparently related to radio host and relentless critic Rush Limbaugh.

The Pot Calling The Kettle Black

 

MSNBC host Joe Scarborough penned a bruising takedown of Newt Gingrich on Tuesday—accusing him of getting "rich off political hate speech" and "spewing childish political insults." Scarborough's feisty tone was a bit surprising considering his political and historical ties to Gingrich. In 1994, Scarborough, a freshman Republican, was swept into office during the Gingrich-led Republican Revolution. To this day, he speaks glowingly of Gingrich's success reforming welfare and cutting taxes. "But 15 years later, Newt Gingrich’s political career is anything but impressive," Scarborough bristles.

Why doesn't somebody get a copy of Lori Klausutis' high school yearbook photo. It should be easy enough to scan.

I thought the same thing and never found out where Lori went to high school. I did find out where she went to college but no luck locating the yearbook or any photos.

 

Let's see. A US Congressman's aide is found dead and the police never bothered to publish a photo to gain any information on Lori. Not only highly unusual but very bad police work.

 

Typical of the politics and politicians in that area I once lived.

 

Scarborough's only claim to fame before he became a US Congressman was buddying up with the crazed right wing Christian murderer of an abortion doctor. That's what got him elected, oh, and saying some of the slimiest things I ever heard, about the Clintons and all Democrats. 

 

Then he quits Congress, a quitter like Sarah Palin, and five months later a dead aide was found in his office.

 

He was our Sarah Palin without the lipstick.
