On...Potpourri of Russia, Depopulation, and Dreaming


Just a few articles I read this afternoon that I found interesting. You may as well.

1) Anne Applebaum at Slate.com on the "Reset" strategy apparently being pushed by Team Obama in our Russian Relations. Are they really this naive? I hope it is a brilliant ploy on our part or we're going to have a "Cuba" moment in the near future if the Russian bear smells weakness.

2) Phillip Longman at USA Today goes over a bit of the danger in world of babies and why not enough people are having them and what this will mean. It is also in conjunction with the growing Green Movement encouraging our population to shrink. Start having babies you responsible middle-class Americans!

3) And the last is Andrew Breitbart ruminating on a number of glaring goofs of Team Obama in public relations. The Leno/Special Olympics, British DVD SNAFU, and Iran/YouTube vid are especially glaring. Minor stuff to be sure, but it may hint at bigger things ahead. Gulp. He ends with dreaming about a General Petraeus surge in 2012. The first half is more interesting. I'm not ready to dream about that yet.
