White House press secretary Robert Gibbs said Wednesday that the United States is in its ninth year of military involvement in Afghanistan and "we are not going to be there another eight or nine years." Gibbs says Obama's recent meetings with military advisers have often focused on how to train Afghanistan's police and army so they can secure and hold areas taken from the Taliban after... news.yahoo.com http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2394356/posts#comment Wed, 25 Nov 2009 18:01:51 GMT http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2390933/posts Senate confirms Obama judge pick WASHINGTON - The Senate confirmed U.S. District Judge David Hamilton of Indiana yesterday for the Chicago-based U.S. Appeals Court for the Seventh Circuit, approving a nominee targeted by conservatives as a liberal activist. philly.com http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2390933/posts#comment Fri, 20 Nov 2009 19:09:45 GMT http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2390841/posts Remember it for your grandchildren: Saturday, November 21, 2009—the day of the Transformation of America.

For several months, senior administration officials have been quietly deliberating behind closed doors how much to disclose to the world about extraterrestrial life.
