JAN. 25 – “As if President Barack Obama didn’t have his hands full at home with his party’s loss of Ted Kennedy’s seat in Massachusetts, the collapse of health care reform and a disorganized war against the banks, he now faces a major foreign policy setback,” writes Massimo Calabresi in Time Magazine. “Since the 2008 presidential campaign, Obama has promised to curtail Iran’s nuclear program by simultaneously offering talks and threatening sanctions. After a year of trying, both approaches appear on the verge of failure.”
