LEGAL NOTICES
Only in America could critics of a group called ‘The Race’ be labeled racists. Such is the triumph of left-wing identity chauvinists, whose aggressive activists and supine abettors have succeeded in redefining all opposition as “hate.”
The predicting business can inflict heavy damage on the predictor's reputation. I think we can agree that economic forecasting during the last six months has given a brand new respectability to astrology. But still, fish have to swim, birds have to sing and columnists have to court derision and ridicule by making political predictions.
Let us not, after this Independence Day weekend, dwell on the political pretenders to patriotism who rushed to out-proclaim their love of country. Nor let us pay heed to the sneering movie directors and journalism pooh-bahs allergic to red, white and blue.
Despite all the feigned outrage fanned by the mainstream media and the right-wing noisemakers, Wesley Clark – retired four-star general, former Supreme Commander of NATO, wounded and highly decorated veteran of ground combat in Vietnam and a military man to his core – assuredly did not denigrate the war record of John McCain when he talked about the Republican candidate on television last Sunday.

Yet another U.S. Marine, Lt. Col. Jeffrey Chessani, had charges dropped Tuesday in the so-called Haditha massacre – bringing the total number of Marines who've been cleared or won case dismissals in the Iraq war incident to seven. “Undue command influence” on the prosecution led to the outcome in Chessani's case. Bottom line: That's zero for seven for military prosecutors, with one trial left to go.
Once upon a time, there was a fiscally and socially responsible senator named John McCain. Despite his presidential ambitions, the Republican from Arizona spoke out against the economic royalism of his party's leadership in the White House and Congress, and simply said no.
