    Kabul, Afghanistan (CNN) -- Afghan rage over the burning of Qurans by NATO troops continued Thursday even after a President Barack Obama apologized for the "error." Afghanistan erupted in violent demonstrations after the troops burned the Islamic religious material at the beginning of the week. Two American troops were killed Thursday by a man wearing an Afghan National Army uniform, a U.S. official said, asking not to be named discussing casualties. The gunman is thought to have been acting in conjunction with a protest outside the base, the official said.

    The Obama White House That Couldn't Bloated, portentous, reeking of self-­importance, Ron Suskind's "Confidence Men" is the most frustrating of books. A truly groundbreaking inside account of the first two years of economic policy making in the Obama White House, "Confidence Men" is at least 200 pages too long. Suskind tosses off contentious opinions about the economy as if they were accepted wisdom. He intro­duces characters who lack even a marginal connection to his narrative. There's not a blind alley he won't stroll down, at least for a while.

      This story is newsworthy to all americans. This story may foretell a loss of support for Obama on the democratic side. This qualifies importance, timeliness, and even celebrity. Its importance is that health cuts may cause a loss in support for Obama in the coming election next year. Timeliness because this happenedin the last 2 weeks. Celebrity because it is the president of the united states and he may be facing some trouble in the political department.

    "Slipped into the Agricultural Appropriations Bill, which passed through Congress last week, was a small provision that's a big deal for Monsanto and its opponents. The provision protects genetically modified seeds from litigation in the face of health risks and has thus been dubbed the "Monsanto Protection Act" by activists who oppose the biotech giant. President Barack Obama signed the spending bill, including the provision, into law on Tuesday"
