What is Bush's biggest national security failure?

That's the question National Security Network has tried to tackle in it's new project, Bush's Bombs: A National Security Legacy of Failure.

To answer the question we first had to find them all, and that was no small task. It's...

"Hockey Moms" were out in force for Sarah Palin last night...at least that's the impression the Republicans wanted you to have.

Last night, I went to the Republican National Convention mainly to see how it differed from festivities in Denver, and boy was it different. Probably one of the...

Today, Obama stated that he would stay out of the way as Hurricane Gustav once again threatens the Gulf Coast. Even Bush, who three years ago celebrated Katrina's landfall at John McCain's birthday party, is staying away.

What does McCain do? Just like he did when he traveled...

I just noticed that the daily brief customarily done in advance of a hurricane is happening because Gustov is bearing down on the Gulf Coast...but a big shift here: the briefing is being given by NORTHCOM. So what does this tell us and why does it matter? It tells...

It is looking increasingly like John McCain really knows nothing about Iran, despite wanting to bomb them.

It all started in Iowa and here we are in the wake of Pennsylvania and it's still not over. The Democratic faithful are weary of reading the news every day: Who's up, who's down, who's racist, and who's sexist. It's a game everyone is tired of.

Surprisingly, there has...

John McCain screwed up on Foreign Policy 101 AGAIN. Yesterday at the AP annual meeting, McCain said he would defer any decision to General Petraeus over whether troops should be shifted from Iraq to Afghanistan in order to intensify the search for Osama bin Laden. Only problem is that...

John McCain concludes his trip to the Middle East and Europe on Sunday. It was heralded as a great move--a huge opportunity for him, given that his opponents are still locked in a primary fight. By traveling the world, John McCain could do what he does best: demonstrate his foreign...

First: the McCain triple "gaffe" on Iraq and al Qaeda
Second: the apology
Third: Conservative bloggers and pundits claim he was right the first time.
