-Taliban attacks United Nations in Kabul

taliban attack united nations kabul
From Fox News:

KABUL — Gunmen with automatic weapons and homicide vests stormed a guest house used by U.N. staff in the heart of the Afghan capital early Wednesday, killing at least 10 people including six U.N. staff, officials said. A Taliban spokesman claimed responsibility, saying it was meant as an assault on the upcoming presidential election.

Heavy gunfire reverberated through the streets shortly after dawn and a large plume of smoke rose over the city following the attack on the hostel in the Shar-e-Naw district. Kabul police chief Abdul Rahman Rahman said seven people were killed, including some attackers.

U.N. spokesman Adrian Edwards confirmed that six U.N. staff were among the dead. He said 20 U.N. staff were living at the guest house, some of them known to be registered there but he was unsure whether all were there at the time of the attack.

It will sure be interesting to hear the UN make excuses for terrorists this time, when it is their own.

-Obama has played as much golf as Bush did in nearly three years



From Politico:

President Barack Obama has only been in office for just over nine months, but he's already hit the links as much as President Bush did in over two years.

CBS' Mark Knoller — an unofficial documentarian and statistician of all things White House-related — wrote on his Twitter feed that, "Today - Obama ties Pres. Bush in the number of rounds of golf played in office: 24.
Took Bush 2 yrs & 10 months."

This news comes on the heels of today's news that Obama played golf with a woman — chief domestic policy adviser Melody Barnes — for the first time since taking office.


Remember how the media would tear Bush apart for what he did in his "spare" time? That's what happens when you don't learn how to control the media during your campaign.
