2. April 2009
Smart power. Journalists seeking to talk a little foreign policy with high-profile Obama administration officials live from the G20 meetings in London this week were solicited for phone sex instead after ringing up the toll-free number given by the White House.

2. April 2009
I seem to remember the left tearing President Bush apart for sucking up to the House of Saud. Yet I don’t recall the man from Texas ever bowing this low to Saudi King Abdullah Bin Abdul Aziz. You need to see the picture over at Michelle Malkin’s site to fully grasp the absurdity of this [...]

Great: Tim Geithner Can’t Count, Either
