Hagel Climbing the Ladder in Obama White House

Former Attorney General Makes the Mistake of Talking
March 19, 2010In early July, when last we checked in with former attorney general Alberto "Fredo" Gonzales, he had finally landed a job at Texas Tech University in Lubbock. That -- assuming he's not indicted by special prosecutor Nora Dannehy, who's investigating the firing of those U.S. attorneys -- would be the end of his troubles, we figured.
This Summer, the 2008 Election Makes Better Reading Than Fiction
March 19, 2010It's not often that you take a nonfiction book about politics with you on a summer vacation -- unless you're having trouble sleeping. But you should take "The Battle for America 2008," the new, behind-the-scenes look at what happened in the historic presidential election. It's fast-paced and beach-worthy, as good a page-turner as any mystery thriller.
In the Loop: Uighurs Freed From Guantanamo Find Work at Bermuda Golf Course
March 19, 2010Some former Guantanamo detainees are said to have returned to their allegedly terrorist ways. Others, such as four Uighurs released from the Guantanamo Bay prison in June, have landed jobs tending the fairways and greens at Bermuda's Port Royal Golf Course, site of October's PGA Grand Slam of Golf.

In the Loop: White House Still Seeks Cyber-Chief (One of the Lesser Czars)
March 19, 2010In an East Room speech at the end of May, President Obama declared a new "strategic national asset": the computer networks our country depends on to keep trains running and planes from colliding, to control weapons systems and allow banks to process payments.

Axelrod Joins a Group of Hardwood Heavies
