Washington Post Gets What Charles Krauthammer Missed: Obama Is American Sym
2008-07-30 20:35:00 A week or so back, I got after conservative columnist Charles Krauthammer for missing the fact that Barack Obama is a symbol of America and what's possible here. I wrote:You miss what leadership is about. Your column demonstrates that your don't get it. And it shows that you don't know or intellectually understand what kind of role the President of the United States serves. That person is considered this: LEADER OF THE FREE WORLD.Do you understand? Ok. I'll repeat it.LEADER OF THE FREE WORLD.That means to most people, the SYMBOL of freedom. That is what Senator Obama represents to many. To ho-hum or sigh or cringe at the presentation of this mear fact is to show a true ignorance of the intense desire many people in the World have to rid ourselves of the true mentail illness that is racism.Charles. The bell's ringing. Time to get with the program.Now it seems the Washington Post understands. Reporting this in the form of an article, the Post explains that Obama is a person who...

Price increases do not equal tax increases
2008-06-02 18:34:00 Robert J. Samuelson of the Washington Post has a problem with the idea of a cap-and-trade system for reducing carbon emissions: since it increases the cost of energy, it’s a tax, not a “trade,” and so should be called a “cap-and-tax” system instead. I have a problem with his characterization, but not because he’s wrong about how energy costs will go up with the implementation of a a cap-and-trade system, or the straightforward carbon tax he prefers. Suddenly pricing what was previously free will absolutely increase the price of energy, no matter whether the price is determined by supposed market mechanisms or by government fiat. No, what I have a problem with is that he appears to be implying that anything that increases the price of energy is a tax. Reviewing five economic models, the Environmental Defense Fund asserts that the cuts can be achieved “without significant adverse consequences to the economy.” Fuel prices would rise, bu...

Kissing Suzy Kolber co-blogger fired from Washington Post
2008-04-17 21:40:00 The collision between old media and new media has apparently produced another casualty, one Washington Post Metro writer Michael Tunison. It turns out that Tunison had also been a co-blogger on the sports site Kissing Suzy Kolber under the pseudonym "Christmas Ape." Once Tunison outed himself as a Post writer on the blog, complete with off-color language and a photo of himself intoxicated, the old media brushback became inevitable.Tunison was fired from the Washington Post, according to his own account, for failure to meet journalistic standards. The Post later claimed that Tunison resigned, a version since disputed by Tunison. The blogosphere being what it is, fellow netizens decided to take revenge by going apes--- on the Washington Post's D.C. Sports Bog in protest even though the Post's sports department had nothing to do with the situation.

Washington Post Goes For Terrorism Love
2008-04-17 21:32:00 And, of course, it is all Israel’s fault GAZA — President Jimmy Carter’s sensible plan to visit the Hamas leadership this week brings honesty and pragmatism to the Middle East while underscoring the fact that American policy has reached its dead end. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice acts as if a few alterations here and there would make the hideous straitjacket of apartheid fit better. While Rice persuades Israeli occupation forces to cut a few dozen meaningless roadblocks from among the more than 500 West Bank control points, these forces simultaneously choke off fuel supplies to Gaza; blockade its 1.5 million people; approve illegal housing projects on West Bank land; and attack Gaza City with F-16s, killing men, women and children. Sadly, this is “business as usual” for the Palestinians. Last week’s attack on the Nahal Oz fuel depot should not surprise critics in the West. Palestinians are fighting a total war waged on us by a nation that mo...

Gibson and Stephanopoulos dwelled entirely on specious and gossipy trivia that already has been hashed and rehashed, in the hope of getting the candidates to claw at one another over disputes that are no longer news. Some were barely news to begin with.The boyish Stephanopoulos looked like an overly ambitious intern helping out at a subcommittee hearing, digging through notes for something smart-alecky and slimy. He came up with such tired tripe as a charge that Obama once associated with a nutty bomb-throwing anarchist. That was "40 years ago, when I was 8 years old," Obama said with exasperation.
