In this week's weekly address President Obama rightfully takes on the insurance companies. They enjoy special treatment under the law in terms of anti-trust but they do not want to be regulated by the Government. That is baloney. They get one or the other. Either total capitalism which means they lose their anti-trust exemption or they participate in national health care. It is not a true capitalism what they have now. Don't let them fool you and CONGRATULATIONS Mr. President for being willing to take on the powerful insurance interests.

Thomas Ricks: Fisco
A fantastic and scary account of the incompetence in the leadership leading up to, and execution of, the Iraq war (*****)Zbigniew Brzezinski: The Choice: Global Domination or Global Leadership
Should we dominate the world or lead the world? Great questionThe New American Militarism
Listened to the author on NPR. This will be my next read.Dore Gold: Hatred's Kingdom : How Saudi Arabia Supports the New Global Terrorism
Very good history book showing the origins of the Al Qaeda and radical Islamist movement. While we like to think that most of this is new, this book really points out the roots in old history which drive current events. (*****)MICHAEL SCHEUER: Imperial Hubris: Why the West is Losing the War on Terror
Fantastic read. Supports the conclusion that we lost sight of the true war by invading Iraq. Rather than getting Bin Laden (a misunderstood enemy) we went into Iraq and have now caused more issues than we have solved. (****)Jon Lee Anderson: The Fall Of Baghdad
Not your average reporter. Jon Anderson did not embed but rather saw the invasion first hand. A great read! (*****)
