...Indeed, a friend of mine in Israel remarked just yesterday that Barak appears so slick in his ads that "he could be Bill Clinton." So Clintonesque is one of his ads about how Netanyahu mismanaged the economy that you can almost hear Barak say "Bibi, it's the economy, stupid!" And why shouldn't Barak play the campaign game American style? The photogenic Benjamin Netanyahu is a master image-maker who himself retains an American campaign guru, Arthur Finkelstein. Politics, like most things in Israel nowadays, are undergoing rapid Americanization...
...refugees, stupid. As NATO planes conducted their heaviest bombing yet on Thursday night, the alliance's political leaders were hard at work shoring up flagging public support for the campaign. President Clinton again compared Slobodan Milosevic's campaign in Kosovo with the Holocaust, and the First Lady visited refugees in Macedonia Friday and likened their plight to that of the characters in "Schindler's List" and "Sophie's Choice." Meanwhile, Germany's Green party, the junior partner in Chancellor Schroeder's coalition government, called for a temporary halt to bombing to give diplomacy a chance.

...going to keep men that aren't like this from being heard. But women's slate, since they have historically been on the margins of hip hop, is much closer to clean.

(I pray that people realize that I've been facetious for the past couple of sentences and I'm about to switch back to truth starting...
...popular presidents). Paul is the people's choice--an unfit leader, a complete nincompoop--but the embodiment of American wholesomeness (insert various examples from the past decade here). And Tamil, Paul's sister, is the legitimate candidate. As she screams in her election speech, "No one cares about this stupid election." She wants people who won't vote anyway to vote for her--to prove that the election is a waste of time, a deluded and prosaic example of democracy in action. In a country where barely over 50 percent of the population votes, Tami's apathy...
Milosevic is not stupid, and his minions at the Ministry of Information are directing their wrath at the Western media for a good reason. The nations at war today have less control over the information their citizens are receiving than ever before. Milosevic has tried to cut off independent and opposition media the traditional way--by revoking their licenses and using intimidation and assault--but there is nothing he can do to control Internet media sources save trying to discredit them. Radio B92, the independent radio station that has made so much trouble for the government since the anti-Milosevic...
