  lgstarr — Authority: 433

• President Obama Wearing Blinders On Terrorism

  
  An Angeleno's View of the World — Authority: 406
  There are no coincidences when it comes to the Obama administration’s policies.

  Neatorama — Authority: 785
  If you’re afraid of Friday the 13th (the date, not the movie), you’re in good company. There’s a certain US president who shared your paraskevidekatriaphobia : It’s also the number that prompted FDR to alter his own travel plans on any day of the week that landed on the 13th.

  ChrisWeigant.com — Authority: 466

  New Books In History — Authority: 106
  What to think about the Vietnam War? A righteous struggle against global Communist tyranny? An episode in American imperialism? A civil war into which the United States blindly stumbled?

  Twenty years ago today...the Berlin Wall came down. This marked the end of the greatest controlled experiment in economics ever conducted. What did economists learn? Nothing...more below...

  Scholars and Rogues — Authority: 542
  The crickets and katydids still trade chirps between the trees and the bushes that line the Potomac River’s great tidal basin.

  Capital is Scarce — Authority: 123
  Apparently we have been here before. Yet here we are again. I guess Daniel Kahneman is right when he says people only have a 3 year memory. Meaning whatever constant we see for 3 years in a row we grab as the new permanent reality. Roosevelt delivered this inaugural address on March 4, 1933. Obama could have ...
