Last night Sean Hannity went on a tirade complaining that President Obama took three months to decide on his troop increase and even said that this is the first increase the President has committed to Afghanistan. Hannity somehow seems to forget the 17,000 additional troops that were ordered to Afghanistan only three weeks into the […]
A story being pushed by Drudge is about tonight’s address by President Obama and how it conflicts with ABC showing A Charlie Brown Christmas.

Because the war has been lost,” Thompson said on his radio show today. “I say this because of one sad and simple fact. The president does not have the will and determination […]
Last night Rep. Peter DeFazio told Ed Schultz that it was time for President Obama to replace his two top economic advisors over the lack of focus on job creations: I got a feeling this is just the start of many more calls for the firing of Gethner and Summers. Democrats know that people are […]
