The Washington Times: One of the digs at Ronald Reagan before he was president was that he lacked a keen grasp of foreign policy. The former actor and California governor had never had to grapple with those questions firsthand. Surely, critics argued, he couldn’t match the abilities of people with real-world experience like George H.W. …

WND: A few days ago, after coming under criticism for my answer to a question about Libya in an interview, I made a lighthearted comment that reflected all this – that I’m not supposed to know everything (most of the media quoted me as saying “anything”) about foreign policy.

There’s been a bunch of hoopla today about Herman Cain pulling a “Perry” when asked if he agreed with Obama on Libya. His nearly five-minute response is indeed pretty painful to watch: My initial response to this was that Herman Cain needs to get some more sleep. That much is apparent before the reporter even …

The American Spectator: … Herman Cain says we don’t know if [Pakistan is] friend or foe. Based on what his rivals on stage are saying, he’s right. Newt Gingrich and Rick Perry say Pakistan is a foe while Michele Bachmann and Rick Santorum argue they must remain our friend because they have nuclear weapons. When …
