U.S. Government Ineptitude

by JIM KOURI, CPP February 13, 2011
 
The days of unrest and uncertainty in Egypt said more about U.S. government ineptitude than it did about the key players in the Egyptian drama. We witnessed a president who attempted to appear presidential but ended up looking uninformed. We heard the top U.S. intelligence chief of the world's largest intelligence community sound more like an analyst for a liberal radio show than a national security expert. We observed a State Department in disarray including a liberal icon -- Hillary Clinton -- stating the obvious and contradicting what her subordinates were saying or what her boss and his minions were saying. We discovered that for all the billions of dollars we spend on intelligence gathering and analysis, we know less about our enemies and about the inner-workings of foreign nations than ever before, with intelligence agencies such as the CIA behaving more like liberal-left think tanks than sources of information for our military and law enforcement establishment.

Dan Savage: Marriage is make-believe just like BDSM

May 22, 2012  02:46 PM

That oh-so-deep thought on marriage was a followup to Savage’s 140 character thoughts on BDSM: Some BDSMers take BDSM very, very seriously, of course, and strive to make it as real as possible. But it's still make-believe.— Dan Savage (@fakedansavage) May 22, 2012 And I respect BDSMers who take it seriously. They're fucking hot. xo— [...]
