What is your plan for Iraq? At every press conference, interview and fund-raising event, the presidential candidates are all asked this same pointless question. And it’s pointless because next to nothing can be done to salvage Iraq.

| | News: US presidential candidates united in support of Darfur | | 2008-05-28 19:37:58 | | There don't seem to be many issues that the US presidential candidates Clinton, Obama and McCain agree upon, but one which caught my eye: their stand against Sudan and the genocide in Darfur.Extract from their statement:After more than five years of genocide, the Sudanese government and its proxies continue to commit atrocities against civilians in Darfur. This is unacceptable to the American people and to the world community.We deplore all violence against the people of Darfur. There can be no doubt that the Sudanese government is chiefly responsible for the violence and is able to end it. We condemn the Sudanese government’s consistent efforts to undermine peace and security, including its repeated attacks against its own people and the multiple barriers it has put up to the swift and effective deployment of the United Nations-African Union peacekeeping force.

| | Video and Photos from Conference on Presidential Candidates' Domestic Policy Plans | | 2008-05-06 23:00:00 | | Advisors to the three presidential campaigns appeared at a Tax Foundation conference in Washington, D.C. Tuesday, April 29. Brian Deese represented the Clinton campaign, Kevin Hassett the McCain campaign and Dan Tarullo the Obama campaign. The spokesmen avoided controversial statements, and the audience of think tank personnel and reporters focused on questions of policy. Some subjects that drew attention were the McCain and Clinton plans for a temporary gas tax holiday, and the Obama plans to raise taxes on capital and wage income even above what Senator Clinton would. Three panels of issue-area experts spoke before the campaign spokesmen, on climate change, health care and tax reform. The climate speakers were William Pizer, Resources for the Future; Nikki Roy, Pew Center on Global Climate Change; and Robert McNally, Tudor Investment Corporation. Addressing health care reform were John Sheils, The Lewin Group; Joe Antos, American Enterprise Institute; and Len Nichols, The New Ameri | | By: Tax Policy Blog | | |

According to the think-tank, the results of this year's US presidential elections are "critical to both countries," as they are both "strongly affected by US policy". When asked which of the presidential candidates they would back, 69 percent of those questioned in Afghanistan favoured Obama, while 26 percent were in favour of Clinton. In Somalia, 47 percent of civilians surveyed supported Clinton, while 44 percent backed Obama. | | By: THE NEW BABYLON TIMES | | |

The two most common methods are: chin augmentation, which reshapes the chin by inserting a silicone chin implant under the skin, and chin reductions, which involve bone reduction with power bone instruments.The best candidates for chin surgery procedures are physically healthy men and women with realistic expectations. The chin surgery is best for the people who are unhappy with t their chin, whether it be because it is too small or because it is too large or prominent.Chin surgery is not appropriate for people who are on acutance, or who have been on acutance within the previous six months.

| | Round 19: The Final Two Candidates Square Off | | 2008-02-22 00:44:49 | | On Thursday night, CNN aired the long awaited head-to-head match up between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. The debate was held in Austin, Texas and was hosted by Univision and CNN. Many, including myself, had expected to see Clinton come out with all guns blazing ready to attack Obama with all she had. Instead we saw a civil discussion between Clinton and Obama during most of the debate with only a few Clinton digs at her opponent. Despite the hosts attempts to cut debate short on the issue of health care, the candidates demanded that the issue be discussed further. Clinton and Obama argued back and forth over the merits and downfalls of mandatory enrollment in health care. Obama’s plan does not force adults to buy into the plan but rather makes it affordable so that they will want to buy it. Clinton argued that this plan would not work and that her plan would cover everyone.

Fidel Castro’s stepping down is an essential first step, but it is sadly insufficient in bringing freedom to Cuba.“Cuba’s future should be determined by the Cuban people and not by an anti-democratic successor regime.

| | John McCain tops other candidates in media coverage | | 2008-02-05 13:00:00 | |
But not all media coverage is good.
Sure it may be true that 492 term Senator John McCain is receiving more media coverage than anyone else in the race for President, but it seems to me he's not getting very favorable coverage either (being constantly bashed by members of his own party and all). Remember Ann Coulter claiming she'd rather vote for Hillary? Then there's Michelle Malkin who's been railing on and on about how "liberal" he is for weeks on her blog. Also, questions about McCains bad temper. And more on McCain's temper.
In the last week, Senator John McCain has surpassed even Senator Barack Obama and Senator Hillary Clinton in the amount of news coverage he has received.
The media effectively anointed Mr. McCain as the Republican front-runner after he won Florida. At the same time, reporters were writing up a storm about how conservatives were trying to deny Mr. McCain the crown. All of this made for a frothy brew of coverage for the week of Jan. 28 to Feb. 3.

| | | 2008 Candidates News Updates: Hillary, Obama And, The Rest? | | 2008-01-14 15:27:00 | | Well, well, well. Over the weekend we seem to have garnered a bit of political brawls and smears. And it really wasn't too one sided. Seems to be the order of the day now during campaigns. It would be nice to have a season of campaigns that were more on the uplifting side. But I doubt that will ever happen.So let's dive in to some of this weekends highlights shall we?CNN's Carol Costello ponders if racial undercurrents will stymie Obama's chances at success in gaining the White House. Costello alluded to the "theory proposed by Andrew Kohut of the Pew Research Center, that Hillary Clinton's victory could be partially attributed to 'poor, uneducated whites who don't participate in polls and who often don't vote for blacks.'" Way to keep the flames of racism burning Carol.Our favorite liberal finger-puppet Keith Olbermann has deemed Fred Thompson as the "Worst Person" for making a joke about the Iranian boats that harassed US warships, having come close to meeting their 72 virgins early. And? Your point Keith? Like I mentioned in my previous article, I would love to see what a five inch gun does to a speedboat.Chris Matthews' "Big Number" segment is now the official "Your A Jihadist" show, labeling Huckabee as such for his statement about "those who attack the American military should be prepared to see the gates of hell." Important tip, attacking the US military may subject a person to being sent to the gates of hell.Brian Williams loves Obama. At least it appears that way, having practically dedicated an entire show to him. He calls those assertions ridiculous on his blog. But despite the ABC Obama love fest, they are finally looking into the Obama Land Deal problem that will cause a little discontent amongst his followers.

| | Iowa Caucuses Tonight Important for Candidates on Both Sides | | 2008-01-03 12:27:09 | | After months of campaigning and $40 million of dollars of spending (figure based on Iowa ads alone), a major first step in the nomination process will take place tonight in Iowa.Iowa is especially critical for the Democratic nominee where a majority of candidates who have won their have gone on to win the nomination of the party. Edwards would have a significant struggle ahead if he were to loose in Iowa.Edwards is polling in a rather distant third in New Hampshire and a loss in Iowa would make it much more difficult for him to rebound there.According to a Real Clear Politics poll, Clinton currently leads in New Hampshire with 33.5 percent of likely voters, Obama has 26.3 percent, and Edwards 18.3 percent.The New Hampshire primary is only 5 days after the Iowa caucuses and the winner in Iowa will certainly get a bump in New Hampshire as well as nationally. After Kerry’s come from behind win in 2004 he got a 20 point bump in national polls after winning the Iowa caucus.While this year’s winner may not get as large a bump as Kerry did with this Democratic race being the close three way race that it is, any bump in the polls after winning Iowa could be significant to any candidate.A Clinton win in Iowa would make New Hampshire much harder for Obama and Edwards to win 5 days after loosing in Iowa. Obama has closed the gap between him and Clinton to only 7 points but it would be much more challenging to come back if Clinton won in Iowa.With the race being as tight as it is, it is entirely possible for Clinton to finish in third place as well.This would certainly have an impact on the New Hampshire primary. Edwards and Obama finishing first or second could shuffle the polls in New Hampshire and create a whole new race thereafter.Iowa has historically not been this close going into caucus night.

| | On Media Bias: Part I (The Candidates) | | 2007-12-19 14:04:00 | | (Note: This post is divided into two parts. To read the second half of this post, click here.)As the Iowa caucuses draw closer and politicians become increasingly concerned with making momentum-stalling gaffes on the campaign trail that could derail their nominations, the media they have relied on for much of the year to help shape and advance their campaigns has now become a double-edged sword.Politicians love the element of control--control over their message, control over their legislation, and control over their opposition. However, the one variable that is often out of politicians' control is the media. The media are notorious for building people up one day and then savagely tearing them down the next. The media are also infamous for catching politicians red-handed and providing a means by which moments of infamy can be replayed over and over again, as former Virginia Senator George Allen could attest to.However, one of the most enduring criticisms I hear from politicians, pundits, politicos, and partisans is the allegation of media bias, especially against conservatives and Republicans. These criticisms have led to fault lines, especially in cable news, as people view CNN and MSNBC as friendlier environs for Democrats and Fox News as more benevolent to Republicans.The focus of this particular post is not to provide a content analysis of the cable newscasts or their hiring trends. While at first glance, one may buy into this notion of bias, there are so many other examples to the contrary to suggest that even if the media are not always nonpartisan, they are decidedly not biased in that they collectively constitute an equal opportunity risk.First of all, it is important to stress that negative coverage is not always the same as biased coverage. Every campaign gets caught in stumbles, contradictions, improprieties, and awkward moments. And it is the media's duty to report on those.

| | The Presidential Candidates on the Environment and Climate Change | | 2007-12-16 17:31:00 | | There have been several televised debates as well as YouTube debates featuring the Democratic and Republican candidates. I try my best to watch them, or TIVO them, but it's difficult finding the time. Luckily, I found a great site that I would like to share with you.The Election Guide 2008, by the New York Times in their Politics section summarizes each candidate's stance on climate change, what they would do if elected, and what their past actions have been on the issue, including Bill sponsorship and voting records. I found this tremendously helpful in determining who cares and who just pretends to care. Based on my light analysis, it seems that the Democrats care more about this issue, which isn't much of a surprise. You be the judge.Copy and paste this text in your browser and it will take you directly to this page:http://politics.nytimes.com/election-guide/2008/issues/climate/index.htmlClimate change and the environment is on my "Top 3" list of issues.

The Faxed Litmus test just never arrived at my workstation. I just don't recall that being acceptable, or even necessary for that matter. And as a matter of fact, that kind of questioning is strictly prohibited in the Constitution itself. When did this change?Romney gave a good "speech." Unfortunately, that's all it was, just a speech that pretty much echoed JFK's speech from the 60's when he was getting grilled over his Catholicism. But personally, he should have never had to speak a word. And it didn't ally my thoughts as I wasn't planning to vote for him in the first place, and it had nothing to do with his religion.

| | Presidential Candidates' Views on Social Security | | 2007-11-29 00:00:00 | | Jeanne Sahadi at CNN Money has compiled a list of the various positions that candidates from both primaries have taken on the issue of Social Security. Here's the introduction:Among the many promises being made by the 2008 candidates for president, fixing Social Security is getting increasing play on the campaign stump.The Social Security program, funded by taxes on workers' wages, currently takes in more than it has promised to pay out. But in large part because the number of workers to retirees will shrink, the system if left unchanged won't be able to pay out all of the benefits promised to future retirees.By 2017, the revenue coming in will be less than the benefits promised. The government will make up the difference by paying back the money it credited to the program's trust fund over the years when it borrowed the surplus taxes paid into Social Security.Come 2041, the trust fund will be tapped out and in-coming funds are projected to cover only 75 percent of promised benefit | | By: Tax Policy Blog | | |

Barbara Streisand recently announced her support for Hillary Clinton. I respect her decision if she truly believes Hillary is the best person for the job, but what does all that "we are in a momentous time" and "a woman's potential has no limitations" stuff have to do with it? I think her support would have been better served without referring to gender. It would be great to see our first female President, but not if she isn't the best person for the job. To throw this stuff in makes it sound like we should vote for Hillary just so we can break this so called glass ceiling. Oprah is going on the campaign trail for Barack Obama, I hope she doesn't expect people to vote for him just so we can have our first black President. Again, it would be great to see our first black President, but not if he isn't the best person for the job.This is nothing more than an attempt to pull emotional strings.

| | | | Profiting From Carry Trade Candidates | | 2007-10-31 22:30:00 | | With the introduction of the carry trade into the mainstream audience, yen currency pairs have become the speculator's pair du jour. Currency crosses like the GBP/JPY and NZD/JPY have been able to net small intraday - or even longer term - profits for the currency trader as speculation continues to support the bid tone. But how can one enter into a market that is already seemingly overheated? Even if a trader could, what would be a good price, and doesn't everything that goes up come down? The answer is easier and simpler than most believe. In this article we'll show you how to use carry trades to profit from overwhelming market momentum.All About The Carry Trade First, let's take a look at the carry trade. In short, the carry trade is used when an investor or speculator is attempting to capture the price appreciation or depreciation in a currency while also profiting on the interest differential. Using this strategy, a trader is essentially selling a currency that is offering a relatively low interest rate while buying a currency that is offering a higher interest rate. This way, the trader is able to profit from the differential of interest rates.For example, taking one of the favored pairs in the market right now, let's take a look at the New Zealand dollar/Japanese yen currency pair. Here, a carry trader would borrow Japanese yen and then convert it into New Zealand dollars. After the conversion, the speculator would then buy a Kiwi bond for the corresponding amount, earning 8%. Therefore, the investor makes a 7.5% return on the interest alone after taking into account the 0.5% that is paid on the yen funds.Now on the earning side of the trade, the investor is also hoping that the price will appreciate in order to make further gains on the transaction. In this case, anyone that has invested in the NZD/JPY trade has been able to reap plenty of benefits. For 2007, not only were traders able to benefit from a 7.5% return, they also benefit from a currency tha | | By: FOREX ARTICLES | | |
| | The (Tall) Tale of Two MVP Candidates | | 2007-10-08 09:15:29 | | Sam Donnellon of the Philadelphia Daily News believes that Jimmy Rollins of the Phillies should be the MVP of the National League. That, in itself, is not worthy of drawing special notice from BTL's ever-roaming eye. However, Donnellon's rationale, if one can call it that, is entirely deserving of our ocular attention.HE WON the argument in the worst way possible, Jimmy Rollins did. He is the Most Valuable Player of the National League because of what he means to his team, because that contribution was more crucial to his team getting to Game 1 of the National League Division Series than was the contribution of the other candidate across the field, the one who hit the insurance home run in Colorado's 4-2 win.So you're saying that Rollins was more valuable to the Phillies than Holliday was to the Rockies. This might be a valid reason to designate Rollins as MVP-- if it were true. But it probably isn't. Holliday finished 2007 with a WARP-3 (Wins Over Replacement Player, adjusted for league and era) of 12.1. Rollins finished at 11.7. And WARP does account for defense. So Holliday was probably even more valuable to the Rockies than Rollins was to the Phillies. Neither team would have made it to the NLDS without either player, seeing as how the Phils beat out the Mets by only a single game, and the Rockies had to eliminate the Padres in the 163rd game of the season.I know. It sounds strange arguing for the hometown guy after he and his teammates were outplayed by Matt Holliday's Rockies. But that's precisely the point. If Rollins played this season the way he played yesterday, rolling over and under pitches after working favorable counts, the Phillies would have been near-misses the way they were in so many of Rollins' previous seasons.Yes, that's true. If Rollins had gone 0-3 with a walk in each of the 2007 Phillies' previous 162 games, the Phillies wouldn't have made the playoffs. Ditto for Holliday and the Rockies. Holliday struck out with the bases loaded to end that inning, but that's hardly the point. He is undoubtedly a great offensive player. Not necessarily a great fielder, evidenced when he broke in on a ball that landed over his head in Monday's playoff with San Diego, evidenced again yesterday when he broke in on the ball Pat Burrell hit over the wall in left.I'd venture to say that if we dared to look beyond this 2-game sample size, we might find that Holliday is a pretty darn good fielder, too. In fact, BP has him at 14 FRAA, (Fielding Runs Above Average) and THT ranks him 3rd among qualifying NL LF with a .892 RZR (Revised Zone Rating). But he can hit. And hit and hit. Thirty-six home runs, 137 runs batted in, a .340 average. The guy's had a monster season on a team full of monster seasons. That is the point. Before Holliday got you with an eighth-inning bomb off Tom Gordon, Helton and Atkins had done damage. The second-through-seventh hitters on the Rockies hit .291 or better this season, and four drove in at least 99 runs.So because in this one single, solitary, isolated game, Holliday's homer didn't produce the winning run, you conclude that his contributions weren't really necessary to the Rockies' attack throughout the entire season. I see. They would love leadoff hitter Kaz Matsui to set the table for them. But they don't need it. He was hitless in four at-bats yesterday, reaching base on a walk in that messy second inning.One. Game. Didn't matter. The Rockies are an eat-with-your-hands team. They don't nibble. They tear into you.The Phillies don't nibble, either. If the Rockies are an eat-with-your-hands team, the Phillies are an eat-with-your-hands team composed entirely of players who resemble the Hindu god Vishnu. The Rockies scored 860 runs this year. The Phillies scored 892. Rockies team OPS: .791. Phillies team OPS: .812. Also remember that Coors field was the 3rd-best hitters' park this year, while Citizens Bank came in at #14. So yes, Holliday had plenty of help, from Helton, Atkins, Tulowitzki, Hawpe, Spilborghs, and others. But those Holliday helpers can't match Rollins' supporting cast: Chase Utley, Ryan Howard, Aaron Rowand, Shane Victorino, and company. There were plenty of days during the season when the Phillies won without a vital contribution from Rollins. Unfortunately, Sam Donnellon wasn't watching on any of those days. | | By: Between the Lines | | |
| | The Religious Faith of the Candidates | | 2007-10-08 02:28:25 | |
It seems many voters apply a religious test to our Presidential candidates. This has been going on for a long time now and I can't help but wonder, what has it brought us? Our national debt has soared, crime and poverty haven't gotten any better, and those who aren't at the top are struggling even harder to survive. One thing it has brought is another tool for helping the politician get elected. I'm sure most of the candidates are sincere about their faith, but I'd be willing to bet there is a small percentage who are faking it. In all the discussion about a candidate's faith there is little or no talk about where they stand on religious freedom. This should be the most important area of concern. Should a candidate's faith really matter as long he or she believes strongly in defending religious freedom. I would rather have a candidate with no faith who truly believes in religious freedom than a candidate with faith who believes everyone should follow his or her religion. I understand that this issue is important for many people, but I feel it is more important that we elect someone who will get America moving in the right direction. | | By: Miscellaneous Reflexions | | |

WASHINGTON (AP) — The personal faith of candidates has become a very public part of the 2008 presidential campaign.
Seven years after George W. Bush won the presidency in part with a direct appeal to conservative religious voters — he cited Jesus Christ as his favorite philosopher during one debate — it seems all the leading presidential candidates are discussing their religious and moral beliefs, even when they’d rather not.
Democratic Sens. Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama have hired strategists to focus on reaching religious voters. Obama’s campaign holds a weekly conference call with key supporters in early primary and caucus states whose role is to spread the candidate& | | By: TexasFred's | | |
