Herman Cain is coming under serious fire; so serious it could destroy his chances at winning the nomination: The first signs of real damage to Herman Cain’s campaign emerged Thursday as his position on abortion — that he is personally anti-abortion but believes it’s “not the government’s role … to make that decision” — began […]
There’s not much I like about Rick Perry, but this idea from his book ‘Fed Up’ is one I can definitely get behind: One solution the governor embraces is to end lifetime tenure — a cornerstone of the Constitution, whose drafters worried far less about activist or senile judges than about meddling tyrants and political […]
I really wish our country would make such bold moves: Finland has become the first country in the world to make broadband a legal right for every citizen. From 1 July every Finn will have the right to access to a 1Mbps (megabit per second) broadband connection. Finland has vowed to connect everyone to a […]
A cornerstone in journalism will be no more: NEW YORK (AP) Editor and Publisher, 108-year-old journalism industry publication, is shutting down.

The Blue Dogs are the biggest problem facing a decent healthcare […]
I can’t say that this comes as any shock: In the six weeks since lawmakers approved the Treasury’s massive bailout of financial firms, the government has poured money into the country’s largest banks, recruited smaller banks into the program and repeatedly widened its scope to cover yet other types of businesses, from insurers to consumer […]
Here we go – attack the newspaper. The McCain campaign has a post up calling the New York Times a “partisan paper of record”, as well as comparing it to the Huffington Post.
