  • McCain apes Bush on Iraq, as Dems stand passively by

    His hard-liner stance should doom McCain with most voters, but unless Democrats put the war back on top of the national agenda, he might get away with it.

  • Most Dems no better than Bush on Pakistan

    The Bush administration's bungling in Pakistan and Afghanistan has led to a resurgent Taliban and al-Qaida and loss of U.S. influence in the region. But Democrats did little to stop it.

  • After 9/11, Rudy wasn't a rescue worker -- he was a Yankee

    Giuliani said he spent as much time at ground zero as many rescue workers. Where was he really? Much of the time, at baseball games.

  • America under surveillance

    Granted new power to spy inside the U.S., the Bush administration may be doing more than eavesdropping on phone calls -- it could be watching suspects' every move.
    By Tim Shorrock August 9, 2007

  • What an anti-Giuliani ad should say

    Forget his messy personal life. Democrats should go right at his supposed strength -- 9/11 -- the same way Republicans attacked John Kerry's Vietnam service.

  • What we lost

    Almost 3,000 Americans died on Sept. 11, 2001. But our losses are still mounting -- in Iraq and at home -- thanks to the bullying, big-lie culture that dominates American politics today.
    By Joan Walsh September 9, 2006

  • The Sept. 11 that never was

    ABC's docudrama "The Path to 9/11" is a false version of history. It popularizes right-wing myths by exaggerating Clinton's failures and Bush's successes, depicting events that never happened.

  • Terminal frustration

    Is air travel safer since 9/11? Yes, there have been some effective changes. But most of the so-called security measures have been irrational, wasteful and pointless. When will we learn?
    By Patrick Smith September 6, 2006

  • Getting beyond our airport security obsession
