February 3, 2010 Stratfor.com: A Defensive Buildup in the Gulf This weekend's newspapers were filled with stories about how the United States is providing ballistic missile defense (BMD) to four countries on the Arabian Peninsula. The New York Times carried a front-page story on the United States providing anti-missile defenses to Kuwait, the United Arab Emirates, Qatar and Oman, as well as stationing BMD-capable, Aegis-equipped warships in the Persian Gulf. Meanwhile, the front page of The Washington Post carried a story saying that "the Obama administration is quietly working with Saudi Arabia and other Persian Gulf allies to speed up arms sales and rapidly upgrade defenses for oil terminals and other key infrastructure in a bid to thwart future attacks by Iran, according to former and current U.S. and Middle Eastern government officials."  Read More Posted by George Friedman, Stratfor.com at 2:27 PM - Link to this entry  Share this entry

February 1, 2010 Viewer Mail for Monday, February 1 LIBERAL VIEWS Joe Klein of Time Magazine weighs in on broad range of political topics. "Great interview with Joe Klein. It reaffirmed the reasons why I watch Fox News and canceled my Time magazine subscription years ago. Thanks for the reminder." Larry Hughes Saratoga Springs, NY "I am exercising my right to be bold and fresh. I'm officially declaring that Time's Joe Klein is a pinhead." Angie Golicht Salt Lake City, UT "Joe Klein is the reason I canceled by subscription to Time." Bryan Smith Tucson, AZ "The reason Joe Klein and others in the mainstream media are so out of touch is that they suffer from group think. Until they diversify their staffs, the liberal press is destined to keep losing its readers and viewers." Shane Wischer Littleton, CO "It's amazing that Joe Klein focuses on the 1% of what Glenn Beck says that is questionable while ignoring the 99% true and accurate reporting. Thanks for taking this pinhead to task." Bryan Smith Tucson, AZ "I strongly suggest Tonya Reiman analyze your Joe Klein interview. His eyes and shoulders were all over the place." Morgan Purdom Huntington Beach, CA "When pressed, Joe Klein was unable to back up any of his comments with examples of fact. Hence, Fox News' ratings destroy Time magazine's." Mark Stevens Ridgewood, NJ "I enjoy reading Joe Klein's column, even though I disagree with him most of the time. Why didn't you specifically ask him what 'untruths' he was referring to?" Mercer Tyson Sacramento, CA "You were too tough on Joe Klein. He may be out of touch, but he was willing to concede on a number of your points, including tort reform and terror trials in NYC." David Roberts Sandpoint, ID "Go easy on Joe Klein. Just think of the humble pie he had to eat to come crawling to Fox News to get anybody to hear his opinion. It's been 30 years since I've read Time magazine." John Crow Osterville, MA "I was shocked to see both Joe Klein from Time magazine and San Francisco mayor Gavin Newsom on the show in one night! Wow. I guess liberals are starting to realize Fox News is the place to be seen." Cheryl Leipham Lincoln, WA FACTOR DEBUT The mayor of the most progressive city in the U.S. -- San Francisco -- enters the no spin zone for the first time. "While Mayor Newsom paints a pretty picture of liberal leadership, you were correct about the debt of his city and its aggressive panhandlers. Businesses are also leaving the city in droves." Guido Metzler Santa Rosa, CA "Gavin Newsom touts progressive governance as the reason for San Fran's fiscal success. In reality, the city's wealth has less to do with progressives and more to do with being one of the top tourism destinations in the world." Keith Johnston Leavenworth, KS "Liberals deny that the country is moving to the right, but they are lining up to appear on Fox News. Do you think Mr. Newsom would have appeared on your show with Scott Brown's victory?" Mike Luwe Yorba Linda, CA "I think Gavin Newsom needs to go back to school and take a civics course. How can he say America isn't moving to the right, but people want smaller government?" Carolyn Anderson Hamilton, OH "While I generally detest Gavin Newsom, I thought he handled himself quite well. Although, you did go easy on him." Colleen Carroll Concord, CA "While I'm a conservative, your interview has given me a newfound respect for Gavin Newsom. He handled himself better than any other liberal has on your show." Eric Shapiro Aventura, FL FAR-RIGHT DAMAGE Is the far-right wing of the conservative party doing damage to the Republican party message? "I don't know what planet Bernie has been on, but George Bush was blasted by the right for many of his policies. He wasn't given a free pass by the media." Thomas Rice Kennewick, WA "Bernie misses the point -- the far-left hated Bush simply for who he was, regardless of what he did. Now conservatives hate Obama for what he is doing, not for who he is." Sanford Passer Franklin, MI "I must disagree with the premise that the far-right should not be employing the same tactics as the far-left. It's about time the folks on the right gave them a dose of their own medicine." John Carleton, USAF (ret.) Citrus Heights, CA "I learned from listening to you and Bernie that only the Washington elites read the New York Times." Craig Lindell Los Angeles, CA "Bernie is right to point out how the far-right dilutes the message of the center right." Wesley Fry San Diego, CA GRAMMY EDITION Pinheads & Patriots features a patriotic performance by the Zac Brown Band, and the bizarre duet of Elton John & Lady Gaga. "Thank you for recognizing the Zac Brown Band for their rendition of 'America the Beautiful' at the Grammy Awards. It's unfortunate that most of the pinheads there probably didn't recognize the song." Ron Baumann Cave Creek, AZ "I'm a 62-year-old man who braved mobs of kids to attend a Lady Gaga concert here in Los Angeles. I found her performance to be both bold and fresh." Don Pugsley Los Angeles, CA "The Grammy bit featuring Elton and Lady GAga should give you and Beck some great ideas for the Bold Fresh tour."
