The rally was organized by a small group of women, talking over coffee. It made me wonder what other things have started with small groups of women talking over coffee. It's probably an impressive list. These women hatched the...

Why are John McCain and Sarah Palin afraid to engage on the issues? Why do they insist instead on dragging the campaign into the mud?

Did John McCain knowingly employ someone this slimy? Or is this just another example of John McCain making really, really bad choices? It's hard to tell -- he's so erratic it's hard to tell what the real John McCain is thinking these days, ping-ponging from one bad decision to the next bad decision.

In Gaza, they (Hamas) will have the opportunity to clean up the streets and restore law and order now that the organized criminal gangs of Fatah have been vanquished.
What "organized crime syndicates" where you referring to? The ones propped up by Hamas?
Military insurrections cost money. To take over the Gaza Strip last month, Hamas had to pay salaries, procure weapons, manufacture rockets, buy help from local crime families, bribe opponents, print leaflets and banners, produce media propaganda and even order up Hamas hats and bandanas. How did Hamas fund this Gaza coup? What of the international "economic siege" that Hamas complained of against its government? Wasn't Hamas so strapped for funds that its leaders resorted to smuggling suitcases of Iranian cash into Gaza across the border with Egypt?
Part of the answer lies in -- or rather under -- the city of Rafah, on the Egyptian border. Another part of the answer is the overt funding Hamas continues to receive through its charitable and social welfare wings.

So they kidnapped the guy for political purposes and then turned him loose. Don't expect any applause from me -- they're still criminals.

Johnston's quote sounds strikingly similar to this one:
"I'm afraid to say this out loud, they may execute me for it, but there are a lot of people, including myself, who think it would be better if Israel came back here. Things would be much better than they are now," said Samara (alias), a graduate of the Islamic University living in the Gaza Strip.
