Obama’s naivity is scary
His knowledge or lack thereof of global politics is dangerous.
Andrew says: And this is something McCain has to really bang on about. Bolton is spot on about Obama on this subject.

Fisking Dan Hannan’s support for Barack Obama
Dan Hannan MEP is a great man but I just don’t get his support for Barack Obama… With a little help from Prime Minister Cameron I think it’s more likely that we can make John McCain a Eurosceptic than will be possible with Barack Obama.
5 commentsThe easy way to save £50bn
Given Gordon Brown is now wasting £200bn a year, cutting expenditure without harming public services should be reasonably straightforward. Here are a few places the Tories might start.
Andrew says: Its great to see First Post something sensible like this considering their recent track-record of complete and utter tripe.

Andrew Coyne, editor of Maclean’s, live-blogging the farcical Mark Steyn “trial” by the B.C. HRC:
2:37 PM We’re going through an interview Awan gave on Mike Duffy Live. He tells Duffy that this isn’t a case of free speech versus minority rights. Rather, he says, Maclean’s can go on publishing what it likes, Steyn can write whatever he likes, just so long as “the Muslim community” gets a right of reply. (I’m paraphrasing. The video of the interview is here.) So really, what they’re proposing (he explains in the interview) is an extension of free speech.
I think I see his point. Every time Maclean’s wants to publish an article some group doesn’t like, they just have to give them an equal amount of space in the magazine. Double the space, at twice the cost to Maclean’s - but zero cost to the complainants. That’s “free” speech, of a kind.
2:43 PM Porter turns to the Amiel column. The two have a detailed discussion of it. My eyes are beginning to glaze over.
2:54 PM The tribunal’s majestic eye now turns to the important question of Little Mosque on the Prairie. Porter is incredulous. “Are you taking a review of a CBC sitcom comedy, to be judged as to whether it’s politically correct?”
God help me, this reads like a Monty Python script. I can hardly wait for the man from the Ministry of Silly Walks.
4 commentsSammy Hagar and the Wabos, “I’m on a Roll”
Great new track from Sammy Hagar as part of his NASCAR tie-in. Its a racing “I can’t drive 55″ for the 00’s. Cool that he mentions the international element of NASCAR these days.
