McCain to terrorists: Please kill my opponent

Either McCain is too old and senile to censor himself so as not to endanger the lives of his fellow citizens or he was deliberately tipping off terrorists in Iraq about Obama's schedule:

DETROIT (Reuters) - Republican presidential candidate John McCain said Friday that his Democratic opponent, Barack Obama, is likely to be in Iraq over the weekend.

The Obama campaign has tried to cloak the Illinois senator's trip in some measure of secrecy for security reasons. The White House, State Department and Pentagon do not announce senior officials' visits to Iraq in advance.

"I believe that either today or tomorrow -- and I'm not privy to his schedule -- Sen. Obama will be landing in Iraq with some other senators" who make up a congressional delegation, McCain told a campaign fund-raising luncheon.

Run and Read

Michael Chabon: The Amazing Adventures of Kavalier & Clay
Phenomenal book about two comic book - writing cousins in New York in the 30's and 40's. I hesitated to read it as I couldn't picture caring too much about comic books and their creation, but the book is so much more than that. Definitely a must read!
Kiran Desai: The Inheritance of Loss
A complicated novel about a small town in northern India, an orphaned teenage girl sent to live with her grandfather, a cook who sends his son to America, and their intertwined histories, relationships and disappointments - and there are a lot of disappointments. Beyond the characters, the book is really about the relationship between India and the West: at the top of the list of disappointments for most of the characters is the fact that they aren't British, or at least American, or at least white. Complicated.
Michael Chabon: The Final Solution: A Story of Detection
A quick, entertaining read. Michael Chabon imagines Sherlock Holmes' final effort at deduction, involving a talking parrot, a non-talking German Jewish boy and a secret string of numbers that might be an important German military code....
Barack Obama: Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance
All about our next president... well worth reading since he wrote it before running for public office: it's much more honest detailed than usual campaign memoir mush.
Philip Pullman: The Golden Compass, Deluxe 10th Anniversary Edition (His Dark Materials, Book 1)
As usual, the book is better than the movie. And the contents of the book are much better than the ongoing 'controversy' over the author's atheism. With talking bears, precocious kids, religion, dark matter, good and evil... something for everyone!
Ian McEwan: On Chesil Beach: A Novel
Touching book about two newlyweds' experience of their courtship and wedding night, the details of which are amusingly and heartbreakingly rendered.
