16066 [lbo-talk] Soros on the terror war -- rank: 1000
Wall Street Journal - August 15, 2006 COMMENTARY A Self-Defeating War By GEORGE SOROS The war on terror is a false metaphor that has led to counterproductive and self-defeating policies. Five years after 9/11, a misleading figure of speech applied literally has unleashed a real war fought on several fronts -- Iraq, Gaza, Lebanon, Afghanistan, Somalia -- a war that has killed thousands of innocent civilians and enraged millions around the world. Yet al Qaeda has not been subdued; a plot tha ...

16072 [lbo-talk] Bush, existentialist -- rank: 1000
[from a story in today's Financial Times by Caroline Daniel - no mention of the pres putting any Cure songs on his iPod] On the way down to Crawford on Air Force One, Mr Bush's legacy was clearly on his mind. He was reading Richard Carwardine's biography of Abraham Lincoln, another president whose tenure was dominated by a morally difficult war, and who was willing to test the boundaries of presidential power at a time of war. However, it was another book that offered a more revealing glimp ...

New York Post [Page Six] - August 14, 2006 ANISTON TALE IMPERILS 'TODAY' THERE'S going to be a shortage of A-list celebrities on the "Today" show if Jennifer Aniston's high-powered flack gets his way.

So Huvane is said to be yanking his roster of ...
