...Tuesday's hearings also gave five presidential candidates (Biden, Clinton, Dodd, McCain and Obama) a chance to flex their commander-in-chief bona fides, not to mention a couple of also-rans (Kerry and Lieberman). "I think that the reports that you provide to us really require the willing suspension of disbelief," Senator Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., told the witnesses. "Any of the metrics that have been referenced in your many hours of testimony, any fair reading of the advantages and disadvantages accruing post-surge, in my view, end up on the down side." But Senator John McCain, Republican...

And $6.8 million changed hands in June on the site's Lindex, where the exchange rate is about 270 Linden dollars to one U.S. dollar. Congress is looking into whether this commerce should be taxed...
...From, he remains feisty. He is disappointed that Lieberman, moving steadily rightward, "has gone off further than I hoped he would" on the war, but he scoffs at antiwar Democrats: "Even a stopped watch is right twice a day," he says. "Look, it's the primary season, and they're only playing on half the field," he notes. "To win the White House, you have to play on the entire field. That's where we come in." But, to torture the sports metaphor, they win only if From and the activists decide that they're playing on the same team...
