Time for the Euro Zone to Grow Up
The euro zone just turned ten years old, but seems like a teenager, struggling to establish its identity while fighting awkward growth imbalances and mood swings, feeling misunderstood and underestimated. We all hope it will turn out well, but it is becoming obvious that the risks cannot be taken lightly.
Palin 'Would Be Willing' to Take On Obama in 2012
Sarah Palin has President Obama in her sights, telling FoxNews.com she "would be willing" to challenge him in the 2012 presidential race. The former Alaska governor, in an interview Saturday on the sidelines of the National Tea Party Convention in Nashville, said President Obama's "lack of experience" has held him back his first year in office and that she would put her credentials up against his any day. "I would be willing to if I believe that it's right for the country," Palin said when asked if she would run for president in 2012.
Counterterror Chief Takes Critics to Task
White House Counterterrorism Chief John Brennan on Sunday ripped into lawmakers for criticizing the administration's handling of Christmas Day bombing suspect Umar Farouk Abdulmutallab. Republican lawmakers in recent weeks have attacked the Obama administration for prosecuting Mr. Abdulmutallab in a civilian court, rather than before a military commission, and for reading him his Miranda rights. Mr. Brennan said he had called senior Republican lawmakers on Christmas night to brief them on the investigation and suggested that they were fully informed about how the suspect would be treated.
Snow Recovery Slow Going in Mid-Atlantic
Armed with plows, chain saws, bucket trucks and shovels, people took to the streets across the mid-Atlantic states Sunday to dig out from record snowfalls and try to restore electricity and mobility, but it seemed unlikely that life would return to normal by the beginning of the workweek on Monday.
Big utility trucks, “the ones that shouldn’t be getting stuck anywhere,” were getting stuck, said a spokesman for Pepco, an electric company that serves the Washington area. Snow plows have been working since Friday night to clear the airport runways, but have run out of places to put the snow. And the Pittsburgh Penguins, experts on ice, had to take a bus here from Newark, N.J., to make it in time for a game.
