Lincoln was famously quoted as saying, "If General McClellan does not want to use the army, I would like to borrow it for a time." Despite this, he was the most popular of that army's commanders with its soldiers, who felt that he had their morale and well-being as paramount concerns.

General McClellan also failed to maintain the trust of Lincoln, and proved to be frustratingly insubordinate to the commander-in-chief. After he was relieved of command, McClellan became the unsuccessful Democratic nominee opposing Lincoln in the 1864 presidential election. His party had an anti-war platform, promising to end the war and negotiate with the Confederacy, which McClellan was forced to repudiate, damaging the effectiveness of his campaign. He served as the 24th Governor of New Jersey from 1878 to 1881. He eventually became a writer, defending his actions during the Peninsula Campaign and the Civil War.

Chertoff: Hezbollah Makes Al Qaeda Look 'Minor League'

JERUSALEM — Homeland Security chief Michael Chertoff warned Thursday that the radical Islamic group Hezbollah "makes Al Qaeda look like a minor league team," and poses the greatest threat to national security.

"Someone described Hezbollah like the A-team of terrorists in terms of capabilities, in terms of range of weapons they have, in terms of internal discipline," Chertoff told FOX News. "To be honest, they make Al Qaeda look like a minor league team.

Study finds for centuries Stonehenge was a burial site

WASHINGTON - England’s enigmatic Stonehenge served as a burial ground from its earliest beginnings and for several hundred years thereafter, new research indicates.

Dating of cremated remains shows burials took place as early as 3000 B.C., when the first ditches around the monument were being built, researchers said today.

Suicide bomber kills 16 people in northwestern Iraq

A suicide bomber blew himself up Thursday in a crowd of police recruits in northwestern Iraq, killing at least 16 men and wounding 14 others, an official said.

Police closed the recruiting center due to the threat, but a crowd of desperate jobseekers still gathered at the center in Sinjar. Those killed included 14 recruits and two policemen, while 14 other people were wounded, Qassim said.

"We told them that there (was) no more recruiting for security reasons," Qassim said. "But people gathered at recruiting center anyway hoping that some official might register their names."

in other news

a new special interest group was created to counter the gay/lesbian/transgender lobby and to give rights to basically everyone else on the planet not covered by some other special interest group

this new group "PSX" is aiming to get special hate crime treatment for thought crimes and other discrimination against it's practitioners

they have an acronym, like the TV/CD lobby has:

PSX - (calling themselves peeksies) are devotees of plastic sex toys (from dildos to blow up dolls)

they want the right to carry sex toys around at work/public places
much like breast feeding women get to breast feed in public
and like gays get to bash straights (aka breeders) without repercussion) and engage in sex acts in public (at least in SF)
and like blacks get the NAACP, Sharpton and Jackson
to hustle race and demand reparations/shakedowns

also, they want the right to call a sex doll a legitimate passenger to use the carpool lane
and lastly, the coupe de grace - the right to marry said objects
like California recently granted rights to gays to marry

so if you are confronted by some hate-spewing mecha member
whip out your dildo and cry for the hate-crime police to protect you
wield it like a sword but carry it around for "protection"

Before 9/11 and the Cole attacks, Hizbullah was always considered the bigger threat - precisely because they were a proxy army for Iran. Their bombing of the Marine barracks in 1983 showed their deadly intent.

It's interesting to see how we've taken down AQ to a degree where we're back to considering Hizbullah the bigger threat - but that may have more to do with Hizbullah's ongoing support by Iran and Syria and the terror masters busy trying to get in a position to box in US interests in the region .

German far-right party, in disarray, still could face ban

The leading German extreme rightist party is on the ropes, because of financial mismanagement, criminal investigations and fierce competition from the left for the populist protest vote. The debate among the authorities here is whether to try to ban it or to allow it to self-destruct quietly.

Hajo Funke, a political scientist at Free University in Berlin who studies rightist extremism, says that the National Democratic Party, or NPD, is certainly a neo-Nazi organization, and that German neo-Nazis, to whom he attributes more than 150 murders and 15,000 violent crimes since reunification in 1990, remain a significant threat.

Rightist coalition formed in Belgrade

Serbian nationalists and allies of the late president Slobodan Milosevic signed a coalition agreement Wednesday to form the city government in Belgrade, making it very likely that an extreme-right politician would become the capital's powerful mayor.

The agreement among the ultranationalist Radicals, Milosevic's Socialists and the Popular coalition of the outgoing prime minister, Vojislav Kostunica, would see the pro-Western Democrats forced from power in Belgrade for the first time in more than 10 years.

I couldn't agree more. But the liberals in this state are unwilling to place a value on the lives of police officers over the scum that kill them. So the cop killing goes on.
My point is financial - if they have no intention of carrying out the death penalty anyway, why go through this prolonged legal charade? It doesn't benefit the taxpayers one iota.

OK, maybe this is just a nightmare, and it won't be that bad.

Pelosi Credits Iran’s “Goodwill” for Surge Success

In an interview yesterday with the San Francisco Chronicle, Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi claimed the U.S. troop surge failed to accomplish its goal. She then partially credited the success of the troop surge to “the goodwill of the Iranians,” claiming that they were responsible for ending violence in the southern city of Basra.

Asked if she saw any evidence of the surge’s positive impact on her May 17 trip to Iraq she responded:

Well, the purpose of the surge was to provide a secure space, a time for the political change to occur to accomplish the reconciliation. That didn’t happen. Whatever the military success, and progress that may have been made, the surge didn’t accomplish its goal. And some of the success of the surge is that the goodwill of the Iranians-they decided in Basra when the fighting would end, they negotiated that cessation of hostilities-the Iranians.

re: #162 loppyd

Ricky Martin is gay?!?!

The stuff that goes on in academia every single day -- it simply boggles the mind.

Ever heard of the concept of "meritocracy"? To the average person, meritocracy is without question the self-evidently only method for the organization of a fair society: it means that the best people for any particular job, task or role be allowed to assume that position, regardless of social class or race. What could be fairer than that? Isn't that the dreamt-of goal, a perfectly fair society, free of nepotism and racism? For example, we have presidential elections, in which we search for the "best" possible president. We have top-flight graduate schools, where the best students in engineering, medicine, law, and so forth study to become engineers, doctors and lawyers. We hire people with good driving records to drive school buses; we let people who are good cooks become chefs in restaurants. Etc.

Why, zombie, you buffoon, why are you wasting our time with this? It's so obvious that it doesn't even merit discussion. Of course meritocracy is good. No one questions that.

Here's why:

Because in academia, the latest villainous mechanism of oppression that must be destroyed is -- the meritocracy! Yes, our schools are teaching that meritocracy is bad. It used to be that they would try to undermine meritocracy euphemistically, because only a madman would overtly state his opposition to the meritocracy. Only a lunatic would insist on having the slowest runners on the nation's Olympic track team, on having blind people drive school buses, on having clumsy oafs become brain surgeons. And yet more in more in academia, they are overtly attacking meritocracy as a concept.

For example, this speech is being given right now at U.C. Berkeley:

Challenges to Meritocracy: A Study of Student Admission and Progression at the University of Oxford, UK

I looked into it: the lecturer's point is that it's a BAD thing that the best students get admitted to Oxford graduate school, and we need to expand (the British equivalent of) "socio-economic affirmative action" and have as the primary criteria for admission: what social class you are from. If you are from the lower or working class, you get admitted to Oxford. If you are from a well-off family, you get rejected -- even if you have the best grades and are the best-qualified student.

This is nothing but bald communism, wreaking revenge on successful people by punishing their children.

The more you look into this, the more common it is.

re: #112 ec marm

I couldn't agree more. But the liberals in this state are unwilling to place a value on the lives of police officers over the scum that kill them. So the cop killing goes on.
My point is financial - if they have no intention of carrying out the death penalty anyway, why go through this prolonged legal charade? It doesn't benefit the taxpayers one iota.

If the death penalty is formally abolished (again), do you think for one minute that the advocates for cop-killers will simply throw up their hands and say, "Oh, well, that's okay then -- just as long as the State isn't going to execute my heroes, we'll be content to let the matter drop"?

Magically, the number and cost of appeals will either remain the same -- or rise, as the principle of abusive appeals spreads from Death Row to the general population.

re: #169 zombie

You are obviously equating phallo-centric, logocentric, capitalist, white middle-class values with merit. These values are merely the superstructure of an economic system of exploitation. Class, color, and gender are the only realities.

What you call "ability" is defined by socio-economic class. The values of the "privileged" classes cannot be understood as some supernatural, absolute standard by which a chimerical entity called "merit" can be measured.

Since the system of late-capitalism is grossly oppressive, the only HOPE is to CHANGE to a new system of values that counter the superstructure of the ruling rich.
If you dispute this, you are obviously a pawn of the rich, white, phallocracy.
