Hell to Pay by Barbara Olson Chapter One Hillary’s Baby "Life is a corrupting process from the time a child learns to play his mother off against his father in the politics of when to go to bed; he who fears corruption fears life." — Saul Alinksy, Rules for Radicals Do you remember Hillary’s pre-election baby? In the summer before the 1996 election, when the Clintons’ popularity had waned and it seemed as if the struggle for re-election might not succeed, Hillary Rodham Clinton let journalist Walter Isaacson know that she and the president had "talked about" adopting a ...

I'm sorry, there appears to be no article to post. Latest I could find online is dated August 99. Just can't help it, but I haven't heard a word about what's happening in Andrews, North Carolina with the (so they called it) "Search for Eric Rudolph". Did all those feds just give up and go away? did the media just end the meager and pitiful reporting altogether? Anyone know?

How NATO's handling of the media during the Kosovo crisis was characterised by news management, propaganda and censorship. By Andy Wasley. Writing in a Sunday newspaper in May, Tony Blair spoke of Britain having a free press, of being accountable over NATO's bombing of Serbia. He emphasised that as a result of NATO's respect of international law, Slobodan Milosevic had been indicted as a war criminal. What he failed to mention was that he himself may soon be indicted for war crimes, that a dossier accusing him, the Foreign Secretary Robin Cook and other leading Government officials of crimes ...

A legal cyberspat broke out this week when officials of the Senate Democratic and Republican campaign committees traded charges that each have set up Web sites that break the law. Democrats started the skirmish, claiming that the National Republican Senatorial Committee's Web site, www.nrsc.org, could violate copyright laws because it features "framed"archived newspaper articles that are only available through individual media organizations for a fee. Pressing the charge, the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee noted that The Washington Post denied its request last month to display the newspaper's articles in a similar format. Responding to DSCC claims that he said are ...

So, she’s in: Hillary Clinton is running for the Senate. Chances are, she will win. And when she does, she will be a bigger deal in American life than ever. Mrs. Clinton is the very embodiment of left-liberalism in America today—not to mention, one unusual character. Throughout November, her supporters in New York (meaning, the state’s Democrats) were getting antsy. She hadn’t committed herself to the race. Polls were showing her running behind the (all-but-certain) Republican nominee, Rudolph Giuliani. She had landed in hot water over a couple of dangerous issues: her husband’s clemency for Puerto Rican terrorists, and ...

Continuing over Interstate 5, they stopped west of the overpass, voted to ...

Sorry for the shameless vanity post, but it has been awhile. Anyway, for some reason my wife likes this TV show called "Providence". I've never figured it out, but the theme of the show has something to do with this Idyllic, wonderful place called Providence that is an Idyllic, wonderful, serene place because it's populated by beautiful, caring, like-minded, loving, serene, light-hearted people whose most serious concern is whether to hire an aspiring mime (a beautiful, wonderful person in his own right) in their quaint, wonderful, serene, idyllic, beautiful pet shop. Probably directed by prominent PETA member Mike Farrell, who ...
