Continental Drift [Dan Collins]
Arrogant bastards regard us as selfish: Most people surveyed would welcome closer transatlantic ties, but there were barriers. In most European countries the main reason for “not engaging with the US†was Washington’s foreign policy, while the view that “Europeans are too liberal†was the main barrier cited in the US. A separate Harris opinion poll for the Financial Times, published this week, showed many Europeans perceiving the US to
Dems 2008: Why did Obama reject the New Black Panther Party? [Karl]
Barack Obama’s presidential campaign website has removed an endorsement from the New Black Panther Party. However, Obama remains a member of the Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago, which states: The vision statement of Trinity United Church of Christ is based upon the systematized liberation theology that started in 1969 with the publication of Dr. James Cone’s book, Black Power and Black Theology.

Loose Lips Sink Ships [Dan Collins]
When I get my hands on the leaker, there’s going to be hell to pay.  Libby Spencer: Leftopia is making me crazy. I don’t recognize this place anymore. The bickering over the Democratic nomination has created a murderous din that is going to kill us in November and spare me the bromides about how this is politics as usual and it’s no nastier than it ever was.

I’m sorry to be so dense, but could you please parse this for me, Senator Obama? “In some ways this, this controversy has actually shaken me up a little bit and gotten me back into remembering that the odds of me getting elected have always been lower than than some of the other conventional candidates,” the Illinois senator told CNN’s Anderson Cooper in an exclusive one-on-one interview.   (And please try not
Election 2008: One of us! One of us! [Karl]
Earlier today, after giving our Dan Collins a link, Allahpundit wonders whether the Wright stuff has legs: MM thinks the Wright thing is a net loss for Obama going forward, but how far forward? Newsday and Politico report that the GOP is feeling frisky over it, but given the depths to which the left has already sunk to present McCain as a bigot (Greenwald and his Hagee obsession being but one
Hell, No! I Won’t Go! [Dan Collins]
Heh. The [Detroit] City Council on Tuesday asked Mayor Kwame M. Kilpatrick to resign in light of evidence that he had lied under oath and plotted to cover up an extramarital affair with his former chief of staff.  For Carin.  The Devil made him do it: The vote came a week after the mayor’s annual State of the City speech, in which he angrily blamed racism for his troubles and accused
Dune Movie Director Announced [Dan Collins]
I don’t know anything about this guy: Peter Berg is attached to direct a bigscreen adaptation of Frank Herbert‘s classic sci-fi novel “Dune” forParamount Pictures.  I was sixteen when I read it. I don’t recall it very well, but my wife and elder son will be excited. Hope it’s good.
