Interesting News From Around the Web

In the little bit of good news to come out of Pakistan of late, the Pakistan military is mounting a major offensive against the radical Muslims. The penultimate Pakistani nightmare is losing control of their nuclear arsenal to the radicals. The US has had ongoing efforts to insure security of those weapons, though the effectiveness of the program is, not suprisingly, coming under scrutiny now.

The problem with overreaching is the little you gain is greatly outweighed by the damage you may do. The Clinton campaign is experiencing more than a little of that right now, after a debate and commentary so rigged in her favor even Kos and CNN are criticizing it. At least it did not rise to the level Scott Ott foresaw, with CNN allowing Clinton additional time to "deliver rebuttals to any statements she makes with which she disagrees." But it apparently wasn't that far off. Instapundit has the roll up of commentary on this here and here. If the Clinton campaign is having to do this at the Democratic debates even while they have a double digit lead nationwide, what tricks are we going to see come the real Presidential race?

In another sure sign of the onset of global warming, South America is experincing its coldest winter in 90 years.

Right Truth is blogging on an extremely important case of a Saudi Sheik using the libel laws of foreign countries to silence authors in America writing about terrorism. Do watch the video:
