Sanford, Florida, police chief steps aside 'temporarily' in fallout from teen's death - CNN.com:

The only thing that will wake up our nation and the bigots is for a Black man to shoot and kill a White man under the "shoot" um down law. A Black man is going to "gun" a White boy down and claim self-defense. This is what happens when one thinks they can retain justice for themselves while denying it to others.

Book Excerpt: Inside Obama's Situation Room

Thursday, March 22, 2012 THE BIG STORY, BY DAVID CORN Book Excerpt: How Obama Decided To Intervene In Libya On March 15, 2011, President Obama and his top aides settled into their seats in the Situation Room for a National Security Council meeting. The forces of Libyan leader Muammar al- Qaddafi were on a roll. The White House was receiving chilling accounts of the violence transpiring in areas seized by Qaddafi loyalists, and government forces were poised to overrun Ajdabiya, a town that supplied fuel and water to Benghazi, the rebel stronghold in the east. If Qaddafi's soldiers succeeded there, Benghazi would likely fall next. And if Qaddafi took Benghazi, the uprising could be crushed. Worse, a massacre could follow. A bloodbath loomed. The president asked how soon Qaddafi's troops could be in Benghazi. The answer: 48 to 72 hours. READ MORE Send To A Friend >> FEATURED COLUMN: E.J.

Romney said he's "almost there" after pursuing the GOP nomination for six years, and there are fresh signs that some big GOP donors and other party figures will follow Bush's lead after sitting on the sidelines for much of the primary season.
