Move over Scandinavia, there's a new land of hopes and dreams bubbling up in Down Under. For the third year in a row, the Organisation for Economic Cooperation and Development's Better Life Index has found that Australia is the happiest place in the world, beating out the Swedes and Canadians in terms of disposable income, life expectancy, work-life balance and overall satisfaction of life.

Did McCain Go to Syria to Sabotage US Russia Negotiations?

I killed the video  (originally posted) because of their terms of use policy.

The anger shouldn't be surprising.  Her record in the House has been terrible; her own party has rejected all her initiatives.  Insulated from reason, she put trust in her sycophantic enablers and wrote a terrible book, ran disastrously for the GOP nomination, became (along with her husband) a subject of widespread ridicule, and learned, to her humiliation, that she had only a narrow following augmented by the frothing evangelicals and the wafer-thin appeal of her looks.  She has now bailed before the inevitable crash.

That anger is fear.

Dallas: It's the anger that surprises me most.

Ding dong, the witch is dead:

Michele Bachmann will not run in 2014, but insists 'my future is full, it is limitless'

byLaura ClawsonFollowforDaily Kos

Michele Bachmann announced she will retire in 2014 in a late-night video, insisting to the strains of a stirringly upbeat soundtrack that her decision was not made because of the investigations into possible wrongdoing on her presidential campaign or because of the challenge from Jim Graves:

Be assured: My decision was not in any way influenced by any concerns about my being reelected to Congress. I've always in the past defeated candidates who were capable, qualified, and well-funded, and I have every confidence that if I ran, I would again defeat the individual who I defeated last year, who recently announced that he is once again running. And rest assured, this decision was not impacted in any way by the recent inquiries into the activities of my former presidential campaign or my former presidential staff.

Because a late night/early morning video is exactly the way to convey that a decision was made after great thought and without any pressure.

Bachmann offered a long list of things for which she had fought and would continue to fight ("to protect innocent human life, traditional marriage, family values ..."), a list that was noticeably short of actual legislative accomplishments, and insisted she was not ruling out possible future public or political roles, saying "my future full, it is limitless ... there is no future option or opportunity, be it directly in the political arena or otherwise, that I won't be giving serious consideration if it can help save and protect our great nation."

You’ve Gotta Read This

AP: “After years of trying to discipline him, the leaders of al-Qaida’s North African branch sent one final letter to their most difficult employee. In page after scathing page, they described how he didn’t answer his phone when they called, failed to turn in his expense reports, ignored meetings and refused time and again to carry out orders. Most of all, they claimed he had failed to carry out a single spectacular operation, despite the resources at his disposal.” Read the rest here.
