A Flood of Drone Strikes

Posted on December 11, 2010 by iwilder

Barack Obama ordered his first drone strike against Pakistan just 72 hours after being sworn in as president. It seems a suitably macabre fact that, according to a U.N. report on “targeted killings” (that is, assassinations) published in 2010, George W. Bush employed drone strikes 45 times in his eight years as President. In Obama’s […]

Other members of Congress were surprised by this improbable combination of lawmakers taking on such a taboo […]

Missing the Mark on Deficits by Ralph Nader (via Dandelion Salad)

Posted on November 29, 2010 by iwilder

Who are on these deficit commissions? Nader says: “There are self-styled centrists, moderates, conservatives and liberals. There are no paradigm-busters, few challengers of assumptions, no backgrounds from unorganized labor, elderly or youth activists. Even Trade Unions advocates are rare…” …It is true that both panels do include very modest cuts in the vast bloated military […]
