    Posted in response to the thread NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte threatens US and expanding on my comment on that thread. This story is fake. How do we know? By reading and asking if it makes any sense and searching for the original sources and checking if they are legitimate. Then asking what are the target audiences and intended effects.

No. First and so obviously it should not require explaining, if Rutte said that he would instantly lose his job. The...

    A former White House speechwriter, Mark Thiessen, has jumped to the defense of his former boss, writing for the Washington Post that George W. Bush “established a conservative record without parallel.” Even by the loose standards of Washington, that is a jaw-dropping assertion.

I also groused to the Wall Street Journal the following year about Bush’s dismal performance. “Bush doesn’t have a conservative legacy”...

    Reason to Believe A leading geneticist argues that science can lead to faith. Reviewed by Scott Russell Sanders THE LANGUAGE OF GOD A Scientist Presents Evidence for Belief By Francis S. Collins Here we are, briefly, under the sun, one species among millions on a gorgeous planet in the remote provinces of the universe, our very existence a riddle. Of all the words we use to mask our ignorance, none has been more abused, none has given rise to more strife, none has rolled from the tongues of more charlatans than the name of God.
