5. Most Liberal Fella
By Jennifer Rubin In January of this year the National Journal published its rankings of all U.S. Senators. What they found has given Barack Obama his new title: the most liberal Senator of 2007. This was no back-of-the-envelope exercise but a careful analysis by a decidedly a-political outlet of ninety-nine votes. So how was it that Obama beat out such liberal all-stars as Ted Kennedy, John Kerry and Russ Feingold? 
4. How Would Iran Read Obama?
By Robert Spencer Reeling from President Bush's criticism of the proposition that we should negotiate with terrorists, "as if some ingenious argument will persuade them they have been wrong all along," Barack Obama was at first indignant, declaring: "George Bush knows that I have never supported engagement with terrorists." But apparently he doesn't consider Iran, for all the genocidal bellicosity of its President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, a terrorist state: on Monday he reaffirmed that he would indeed sit down with the leaders of Iran (as well as with those of Cuba and Venezuela), and that no one should be disturbed by this, since these countries "don't pose a serious threat to us the way the Soviet Union posed a threat to us."
3. The New Appeasers
By Jed Babbin

That is happening because the president, as is his wont, expressed a correct judgment in incomplete and thus incorrect terms. (Continued Below) 
2. The Polisario 'Berlin Wall'
By Ericka Andersen Just as the Soviet's wall imprisoned East Germans for four decades, the Polisario Front -- a quasi-nationalist guerilla movement in the Western Sahara -- is imprisoning Moroccan refugees in camps where they are denied food, shelter and medical attention.Several refugees who escaped the Polisarian camps came to HUMAN EVENTS last week to explain their plight.
1. Human Trafficking: 'An $8 Billion International Business'
By Erick Erickson Between my house and downtown Macon, Georgia, which is a seven minute trip in traffic, I pass seven Asian themed spas, an impressive one per minute. You wouldn't really notice these places during the day, except for one. They have generally drab exteriors in run down strip malls and they really are not lit up and packed until around eleven o'clock at night.
