...overall level of vitriol surrounding both the president’s “undeserved” Nobel Prize and his failed Olympic bid is bewildering simply because neither is in any way a reflection of seriously flawed leadership, political decision-making, or moral judgment on his part...
...build a road in Kunduz, in Afghanistan, and that Jan handed some cash to a Taliban middleman [Sept. 7]. We would like to point out that the project mentioned is not a GTZ project, and no one of that name has ever worked as a subcontractor for us.

...Paris on Oct. 20. Until then, researchers have only some intriguing and, frankly, puzzling snippets of information--and plenty of questions.

The two exceptions are retailers, for whom Columbus Day is the first big sales opportunity after August's back-to-school rush, and those who have repurposed the holiday into something less problematic (South Dakotans, for example, celebrate Native Americans Day instead). But relax, weary workers. Thanksgiving's little more than a month away, and that, at least, is a federal holiday most of us can agree...
