The Anchoress notes today something about the chattering class who control the media message and the rest of America who work, raise families and live their lives. The key point (from Dick Meyer) is we are not polarized and hyper-partisan – it is the talking heads! [Meyer] … independent, swing voters never went away, they […]

It seems Pakistan locals are ready to start hunting down al-Qaeda in the tribal areas where al-Qaeda is supposedly holed up – resembling the change in support local Sunni Iraqis had regarding al-Qaeda in the now infamous Anbar Province of Iraq: Members of a Pakistani ethnic Pashtun tribe vowed on Thursday to raise a militia […]
