If you want to read about it do it quick. The story is being scrubbed from the 'Net.

Splendid use of taxpayer money. Sheesh.

Once the bases are secure, start flying in spare parts to keep the transports flying. Make sure the fuel bunkers can be topped off and we have a base to launch a humanitarian relief effort (or a logistics base capable of supporting a sustained air campaign).

That will shave a couple of weeks off the implementation of any action required.

The only thing sillier than this is the paranoia evident in the comments section of that link.

Maybe they don't want a bunch of online creeps knowing and discussing her whereabouts? I felt the same way about stories about the Bush daughters. They were teenagers; leave them alone.

No No No! We do not need to get involved in Syria! The Arab League should be handling this...and not though any proctor!

Paul Ryan's budget op-ed in the WSJ:

Paul Ryan: The GOP Budget and America's Future - WSJ.com

I have not read the details of the plan yet. Based on what I've heard, I agree with lowering the corporate rate to 25% and cutting all loopholes for high income earners (I'll hold my breath for the cries of class warfare). I have not read the fine print on the reforms to Medicare/Medicaid, which was the problem I had with Ryan's last budget, so we'll see.

Well the piece Roni linked to repeatedly cites Dems as saying it's the same thing all over again, in that regard. FWIW.

Really? I give you more credit than that Mercy. Go back and read what I said.

In fact, I challenge you to watch the series I mentioned and then get back to me about just how easily people went along with what they were told.
