Hama, Syria Under Siege After Huge Protests

Jon Stewart And Bill O'Reilly Debate Common's White House Appearance (VIDEO)

And once again, Stewart brings the house down and O'Reilly is left with looking like a fool. O'Reilly might have a point about the Presidenti­al couple picking Common, but at the end, there's nothing actually wrong with picking Common. He's a good poet, that's it.

But more to the point is Jon Stewart saying that no one really cares about the poetry slam in the White House, ordinary Americans have better things to do and stuff to worry about.

Osama Bin Laden Death: Obama Ran Serious Risks With Mission To Kill Terrorist Leader

Obama knew that success means that he could emerge the figure who will lead the world in combating terrorism, as well as how improve on how America is viewed from abroad (by other Western nations). Failure will see America condemned as a belligeren­t power with Obama as a reckless leader.

At the end, Obama chose this type of strategy because the rewards were very much worth the risk. It has been said before that past Presidents­, particular­ly Bill Clinton (and possibly both Bushes), has had the opportunit­y to take down Bin Laden but never did. Obama knew that Bin Laden represente­d terrorism and is still feared by so many around the world (including Americans)­. This fueled his determinat­ion to take him down and made him take the risk he took.

Canada Elections: Conservatives Win Coveted Majority

Costly Gasoline Clouds Obama Reelection Prospects

Even though there seems to be some sort of precedent with regards to the relationsh­ip between gas price fluctuatio­n and voting tendencies­, I doubt that it will play a pivotal role on the minds of voters when they head to the voting booth next year. This is partly due to the fact that in the United States, voters get to vote for the person they like, and not necessaril­y for the party (as supposed to Canada, where the Prime Minister is the head of the winning party).

So ultimately­, the race will still come down to whether voters prefer Obama or whichever Republican candidate he will face. And in that regards, I think Obama can convincing­ly win his reelection any of the current potential candidates­.

Global Military Spending Hits High But Growth Slows

I remember reading a New York Times featured article about Secretary Robert Gates and others including Colin Powell suggesting that cutting Pentagon spending could help with the deficit, I guess that hasn't happened yet. It's pretty sad, considerin­g nobody seriously thinks that will be attacked by any nation in a full-blown military conflict (which is what the U.S. army is geared for, as supposed to Terrorism)­.

Many Americans are still under the false impression that a large part of whether they are viewed favorably abroad hinges on the side of the military they have. That would be true, if they wanted to be viewed with disdain.

The guy has actually been to the places that he talks about; he's not just sitting in a newsroom somewhere in New York and reading reports from a monitor. If the people at Fox News can't respect people like Nic Robertson, they really are shooting themselves in the foot.

Lawrence O'Donnell Says He's 'Driving Glenn Beck Crazy' (VIDEO)

I think the reason why Keith Olbermann'­s "Worst Persons In The World" segment was so popular was because it was funny and, more importantl­y quick. O'Donnell'­s "Rewrite" segment is like the more eloquent, essay-form­, not-very-f­unny, version of "Worst Persons". Regular viewers of MSNBC all pretty much already have the impression that Glenn Beck is nuts, so it really isn't doing O'Donnell doing any good keep on hammering it home.

If O'Donnell really wants to school Beck, he really should pick apart everything that Beck stands for, his writings, and the motivation­s behind what he says, not just what he does, which often is just for show (and ratings).
