You may recall that when Bush was president, it was like pulling teeth trying to find out just who had visited the White House. Let’s just say he dug in his heels a bit on releasing that information. Maybe it had something to do with Cheney’s “secret” Energy Meeting, who knows, but it [...]

As it turns out, the domestic terrorist, Abdulhakim Muhammad, who targeted Army soldiers outside of a recruiting station in Little Rock, Arkansas may not be acting independently after all.

This was not the murder of a doctor, nor did it have anything to do with the issue of being pro/anti-choice. No, this time it was a young Army private, gunned down outside a military recruiting center in Little Rock, Arkansas, of all places. Another Army private was also shot, but is [...]

A few loyal readers have graciously shared video clips of interviews with former banking regulator, William K. Black. These interviews address the fact that a tremendous amount of mortgage originations at the core of our current economic turmoil were fraudulently underwritten.

The FUTURE potential bonuses already passed by congress and signed by the president far exceed anything you have seen yet.

Carl Bernstein appeared on NoQuarter Radio’s Sins of Omission with Paulie Abeles last Monday. Having written a book about Hillary Clinton, most listeners wondered if Bernstein would have something interesting to say about Hillary and the democratic primary campaign.

In his UK Telegraph piece Barack Obama Is A Novice - And It Shows, Toby Harnden details the rookie stumbles of the new President. For me, this is less about condemning Pres. Obama for making such errors in judgment or losing control of his message, or even that he does not practice in office [...]

I am so heartened to see Secretary of State Clinton back on the national, and international, stage once more. Certainly, she is setting both the tempo and a fine example for the State Department and USAID with her actions since being confirmed. Under the circumstances, it [...]
