The White House has disavowed the apology to the Muslim protesters issued by its embassy in Egypt earlier today.
“The statement by Embassy Cairo was not cleared by Washington and does not reflect the views of the United States government,” an administration official told POLITICO.
In other words, the Obama State Department isn’t cowardly, it’s simply incompetent. What a relief!
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

Since the Marines weren’t allowed to do their job and the diplomats don’t seem to understand theirs, I say we bring them all home. The Marines can have fun training in the swamps of North Carolina (and make it home for supper), and the diplomats can fill those much needed jobs as 7-11 night managers. Everybody wins.
I’m sure if Dear Leader goes back to Cairo and gives another speech, evreyone there will love us, peace will reign, and we’ll get the 2024 Olympics. Isn’t he due for another Nobel prize?
