This happened yesterday, but it’s news.

A competent professional pilot safely landed a plane, disabled by birds, with no deaths.

A lame duck President made excuses for bringing down our country with decisions that led to thousands of deaths.

Much to His Chagrin, ‘Plain Old Barack Is Gone’

Obama nourished his soul on a life of routine in Chicago, friends say. Now they hope he can find comfort in a city he has never embraced.
