KABUL, Afghanistan — Afghan forces have taken over the lead from the U.S.-led NATO coalition for security nationwide, President Hamid Karzai announced Tuesday in a significant milestone in the 12-year war.

Seven Seconds in Heaven

FROM News Source http://leftblogtweets.com/2013/06/seven-seconds-in-heaven/

For a few moments, on a few nights each year, a fact that often seems fuzzy becomes absolutely clear: Watching sports is totally, unquestionably worth our time. Game 6 of the 2013 NBA Finals was tense, baffling, infuriating, and cathartic. The Heat eventually beat the Spurs in overtime , 103-100, ensuring there will be a winner-take-all Game 7. But no matter what happens next, I’ll think back to the end of regulation on Tuesday night, and the seven seconds that revealed why we watch all these games and what we gain by watching.

Displaying a remarkable lack of self-awareness, Rush Limbaugh tried to convince a caller that ”it’s a pretty safe bet” that liberals always lie and conservatives never do — an assertion he backed up with a series of his own lies on everything from abortion to minority vote suppression and the IRS. On the June 18 edition of his radio show, Limbaugh addressed a caller who expressed interest in hearing both sides — liberal and conservative — of any given debate before coming to his own conclusion on the issue. Limbaugh chastised the caller for informing himself in this manner, telling him, “The liberals lie. I do Article source: http://feeds.mediamatters.org/~r/mediamatters/latest/~3/8nIXUIAK9kw/194512

It shows that rather than ballooning the deficit the current Senate bill would reduce the deficit by almost $200 billion over the next decade.

President Barack Obama has crossed a red line of his own on Syria — spurred by the fast flood of bad news on the ground and a spirited internal debate about national prestige under his own roof. The Obama administration’s decision Thursday to provide military and political aid to anti-Assad fighters wasn’t merely a result of confirmation the Syrian regime used sarin gas on rebels — but a decision prompted by the realization that Syrian President Bashar Assad was on the cusp of gaining a permanent advantage over rebel groups and the fear of imminent sectarian bloodshed further spilling into neighboring Article source: http://www.politico.com/story/2013/06/president-obama-syria-chemical-weapons-92782.html

FROM News Source http://leftblogtweets.com/2013/06/a-review-of-the-future-of-american-progressiveism-by-roberto-m-unger-and-cornel-west/

In this short, intense but sharply focused book, entitled “The Future of American Progressivism,” the authors put before us the major problem of our times: If Francis Fukayama’s claim that (at least in principle) democracy represents the endpoint of our political evolution, then it is high time that the rest of the world line up to get aboard the fast moving Western democratic train, right?

New Jersey Catholic Church lobbies to keep victims of abuse silent

Delusional and myopic Bill Donahue and his Catholic League aside, at every step in the molestation crisis trail, some part of the Church, be it locally, regionally, nationally, internationally has found a way to do the wrong thing thinking that they are defending the institution they belong to and serve. Denial. Cover ups. Move the monsters around. Calling the victims liars. Running out the clock on lawsuits and legal action.
