And this is really her: MONTREAL — A Quebec comedy duo notorious for prank calls to celebrities and heads of state has reached Sarah Palin, convincing the Republican vice-presidential nominee she was speaking with French President Nicolas Sarkozy. In the interview, which lasts about six minutes, Palin and the pranksters discuss politics, pundits, and the […]
That is the part of our Constitution that lays out the only real job of the vice-President. That job is to be the President of the Senate. We were reminded of this about a year ago by another vice-President – Dick Cheney. What legislative experience does Sarah Palin have? I have read a lot of […]
That’s how a new report describes the Iraq War, and even goes as far as saying the “outcome is in doubt”. This isn’t a report by some left-wing group, but a report by National Defense University, the Pentagon’s top educational institute. The report was written by Joseph Collins, a former top Rumsfeld aide. He even […]
We might as well brace ourselves for $6.00 a gallon at the pumps: High gasoline prices and prospects for an Israeli-Palestinian peace deal headline Vice President Dick Cheney’s trip to the Mideast, but fears about Iran’s rising influence will be a key topic of his private talks at each stop.

But […]
Wow! With all the problems facing these GOP candidates, it makes a $400 haircut seem like nothing! When Hank Asher reached into the bag and pulled out the two $15,000 gold Cartier watches, the holiday crowd at Carmine’s restaurant on 44th Street in Manhattan noticed, patrons recalled. Later, so did the U.S. attorney in Orange […]
I used to really like Chuck Schumer. Those feelings have changed in recent history. He is not a man of principal – he is a man of covering his own ass. In today’s New York Times, he has authored an Op-Ed explaining his reason for supporting Mukasey: I AM voting today to support Michael B. […]
Dick Cheney should be considered the biggest threat to American security – period. The man wants nothing but war, and won’t stop until he gets another one: The United States and other nations will not allow Iran to obtain a nuclear weapon, Vice President Dick Cheney said Sunday. “Our country, and the entire international community, […]
This will be so much fun: The Senate Judiciary Committee subpoenaed the White House and Vice President Dick Cheney’s office Wednesday for documents relating to President Bush’s warrantless eavesdropping program. Also named in subpoenas signed by committee Chairman Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., were the Justice Department and the National Security Council. The four parties have until […]
