Speaking at Israel’s 60th anniversary celebration in Jerusalem today, Bush launched attack on Democrats ”suggesting they favor “appeasement” of terrorists in the same way some Western leaders appeased Hitler in the run-up to World War II.”
He did not specifically “name Obama or any other Democrat, but White House aides privately acknowledged the remarks were aimed at the presidential […]

For all the complaints from some progressives about having Bill Clinton back in the White House as the First Spouse, I find this little tidbit interesting:
Close-in supporters of Sen. Barack Obama’s presidential campaign are convinced he never will offer the vice presidential nomination to Sen. Hillary Clinton for one overriding reason: Michelle Obama.
