McManus: Boston -- clash of the talking points
A terrorist attack is like a national Rorschach test. Everybody sees in it what they want — usually something that proves a point they've been making all along. Even before the Tsarnaev brothers were identified as the perpetrators of the Boston...Tags: Michael Bloomberg, Unrest, Conflicts and War, Illegal Immigrants, Laws, Politics

Ambassador Susan Rice to replace the soon-departing...Tags: Unrest, Conflicts and War, September 11, 2001 Attacks, Planning Inquiries, Interior Policy, John Kerry

Chuck Hagel a petty decision by Obama
It's official. President Barack Obama has named former Sen. Chuck Hagel, R-Neb., as his nominee for secretary of defense. Hence, we may be in store for the worst defense secretary nomination fight since George H.W. Bush's failed appointment of Sen. John...

Rand Paul's stunt misses the point
If you took Sen. Rand Paul duck hunting, he'd probably shoot the decoy. That's the impression the first-term Kentucky Republican gave when he took the floor of the U.S. Senate on Wednesday for a 13-hour rambling real-life imitation of Jimmy Stewart's...Tags: Unrest, Conflicts and War, Ron Wyden, September 11, 2001 Attacks, John Brennan, Eric Holder

What Rand Paul got right
I hope I'm not too late to the fight. Last week, freshman Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) held an old-fashioned filibuster against the nomination of John Brennan to head the CIA. Paul's stated reason for taking to the floor and talking for 13 hours was that...

McManus: Obama's Gitmo woes
President Obama sounded genuinely outraged last week when he talked about the Kafkaesque situation at the Guantanamo prison camp, where the United States has been holding 166 men without trial for terms that are, at this point, officially endless.
