Yahoo! News - Opinion /Editorial
The Christian Science Monitor - Like his economic team, Barack Obama's choices for three top national security jobs exude competence. But by including his one-time rival, Hillary Clinton, as well as two experienced hands in Republican administrations – Robert Gates and Gen. James Jones – he's reaching beyond competence to a balanced approach to foreign affairs.
The Christian Science Monitor - I watched a middle-aged widow lose her home recently. Her story was familiar. She owned her simple brick residence outright until four years ago, when a mortgage broker stopped by and offered her a loan too good to be true. In exchange for taking on a modest monthly payment, she could make some needed repairs and consolidate other debts.
The Christian Science Monitor - As schools face increasing pressure to produce evidence of their effectiveness or run the risk of closure, reformers are finally beginning to look beyond standardized test scores as the end-all-be-all in evaluating teaching and learning. In the process, they're studying the experience of other countries that use professionally trained inspectors.
HuffingtonPost.com - In recent weeks, as part of an uncanny attempt to behave as generals fighting the last war, many in the Republican leadership have been floating Bobby Jindal, the governor of Louisiana, as the next Republican hope, or even the Republican Obama. The thinking behind this, while not particularly sophisticated, is, at least on the surface, easy to understand. Jindal like Obama is well educated, young and has an attractive family.
The Nation - The Nation -- Now that President-elect Barack Obama has put together his administration's economic, foreign-policy and national-security teams, the transition process comes to the interesting part.
The Nation - The Nation -- In the endless debate over abortion, we can forget the concrete reality in which pregnant girls and women so often live.
RealClearPolitics.com - With much of the world's attention focused on the economic crisis and now the terrorist attacks in India, a noteworthy anniversary has passed.
RealClearPolitics.com - The Detroit Lions were thrashed, as usual, in their annual Thanksgiving Day football game, bringing their record for the season to 0-11. This prompted some sports fans to wonder why the Lions' owners tolerate such consistent failure. But then, the Lions are owned by the Ford family.
The Christian Science Monitor - Hold Israel to international law regarding wall, settlersRegarding the Nov. 26 Opinion piece, "In the name of peace, Israelis and Palestinians should become European": This suggestion is valuable, in part, because it points to a role that the European Union (EU) can play that is independent of the United States.
The Christian Science Monitor - Eleven hundred years and counting. That's the cumulative time in prison sentences given last month to a handful of people expressing political dissent in Burma(Myanmar).
Maggie Gallagher - Are the kids OK?
Georgie Anne Geyer - WASHINGTON -- Often during an especially terrible crisis, someone in the midst of it will come out with words that seem to encompass the entire tragedy. So it was in Mumbai after last week's massacres.
The Weekly Standard - Barack Obama wants to give the economy a jolt. So far, though, the biggest jolt we've seen is the one the economy has given to Obama. That jolt, in the form of a plummeting stock market, upset Obama's desire for a leisurely transition. It made him virtually America's acting president.
Pat Buchanan - Arguably the most successful act of revolutionary terror was the June 1914 assassination of the Archduke Francis Ferdinand in Sarajevo.
Mona Charen - Superstition almost forbids me to comment on President-elect Obama's appointments thus far. The news has been so shockingly welcome that I'm almost afraid to remark on it for fear of breaking the spell.
The Weekly Standard - Amid the cold gusts of winter, Republicans will soon be ushered out of power after controlling Congress, the White House, or both for 14 years.
James Kilpatrick - Bob Griffin, who dwells somewhere in cyberspace, asks for a writer's guidance on the dimensions of "enormity." His inquiry is prompted by an irksome sentence in the Times Atlas of World History. The emphasis is mine:
Cynthia Tucker - Even though Barack Obama received only about 53 percent of the popular vote, his favorable rating stands at 67 percent. It appears that many conservatives who didn't support him are nevertheless enthusiastic about his presidency and optimistic about his tenure.
David Shribman - HANOVER, N.H. -- Yes, Vanessa, there was a political revolution this month, and it didn't affect only the presidency. It also reached into the treasurer's office in Grafton County, a mostly rural rectangle covering 1,747 square miles of mountains, lakes and forests in the north country near the Vermont border.
