O'Reilly mentioned that he heard Bubba isn't doing so well with his recovery.

Come on! Which one is running for President and which one is running the Chocolate Factory?

Actresses Jane Fonda and Marisa Tomei marked International Women's Day by staging a performance of The Vagina Monologues in India. The show was set up by the V-Day Foundation, a charity run by Monologues author Eve Ensler which raises awareness of violence against women. Indian and Pakistani actresses joined the show in Bombay, also called Mumbai. "Violence comes in many forms and affects women all over the world," Fonda said after the performance. Fonda, 66, said she had had to take a back seat in each of her three marriages. "Behind the closed doors of my marriage, I would...

Mr. Kerry, if elected what will be your stance on the war on terrorism?I SURRENDER!

My buddy, a Chinook pilot, posted some of the videos he shot while serving in Iraq. This is one HUGE formation of Chinooks and Blackhawks landing

Recently discovered that Wesley Clark had a twin brother. His twin also suffered from delusions of grandeur.

State Justice Charles Tejada, moving more quickly than defense lawyers and prosecutors had expected, dismissed all indictments against the five less than a week before Christmas. His ruling wasn't expected until Jan. 6. The decision came two weeks after Manhattan District Attorney Robert Morgenthau recommending dropping all the convictions in the case. The decision to dismiss the indictments means prosecutors would have to start from scratch with a grand jury to retry the five. Tejeda's decision came after lawyers from the police detectives' union unsuccessfully tried to block his ruling. The Detectives' Endowment Association wanted an evidentiary hearing first,...

I was finishing my Bachelor's degree and can vividly remember the conversation I had with my left wing Journalism professor the day after the election. He was visibly upset at the joy that the other College Republican and I couldn't contain over the results. That was perhaps my favorite post election memory of my entire life! I am always hopeful for a repeat of '94 during every election, and have almost always been very disappointed. Please post your memories here as we look ahead to next week...

This morning I saw an RNC sponsored ad blasting Jim Maloney (D-Connecticut) for supporting a Social Security privatization plan. It went on to laud Nancy Johnson (R-Connecticut)for opposingSocial Security privatization. What core beliefs does the RNC have????

LONDON (Reuters) - Hormones in semen may help to ease female depression because women whose partners don't use condoms are less likely to feel down. Scientists at the State University of New York suspect the mood-altering hormones are absorbed through the vagina and make women feel good but they stressed that their results are not an excuse for unprotected sex. "I want to make it clear that we are not advocating that people abstain from using condoms," Gordon Gallup, who led the study, told New Scientist magazine on Wednesday. "Clearly an unwanted pregnancy or a sexually transmitted disease would...

Just listening to Imus. He's broadcasting live from Portsmouth NH today in front of an audience. Lieberman called in and was roundly booed by his audience. Lieberman and Imus joked about it, but Lieberman was clearly not expecting the response. If the rest of my day is as great as my drive in to work....this is going to be a WONDERFUL day!

I am a tried and true conservative and I am all for reparations...with a caveat.I believe that as conservatives, we should embrace this movement. As we are reminded by the movement's leaders, we paid reparations to interned Japanese Americans from WWII and we should do the same for the descendants of African slaves. The payments to the Japanese Americans fell short of undoing the trauma of being taken away from their homes and put into camps during the war. But we have an opportunity to do better in undoing what was done to innocent Africans enslaved in America!We must stop ...

Listening to Andrea Mitchell on Imus just now. She considers those journalists who are "dealing with sandstorms" and in the middle of the fighting in "HEROES". Boy does that cheapen a word used a lot lately to describe true heroes!

Ann Coulter (archive)(printer-friendly version)September 20, 2001Where's Janet Reno when we need herJust as I predicted, the new "security procedures" adopted by the U.S. Department of Transportation in response to the most deadly hijackings in history will be incredibly burdensome for millions of American travelers but, at the same time, will do absolutely nothing to deter hijackers. The government's logical calculus on flight security has long been: Really Annoying equals Safe Plane. (Say you were a tribesman from a distant island and had never in your entire life seen a seat belt before. Don't you think you could figure it out?) ...

After his defeat for the office of Vice President, but success at re-election to the U.S. Senate, Joe Lieberman is touring various diners around the State of Connecticut today.

The W1 is nice but I think Jim Robinson should put the Congratulations graphic back on top of this Forum! The main stream media may have a problem admitting it, but we sure shouldn't!

Does anyone know if the Republicans in the Senate may still challemge the election of a dead man? I know Ascroft said he wouldn't challenge the outcome but can't the Senate still challenge? With the Senate tied, and Gore having played his ridiculous cards, wouldn't it be prudent for the Senate to challenge on legal grounds as soon as they convene? Perhaps this has already been covered here but other issues have dominated recently!!

Oh....that's right McCain is a Republican, Why do I always forget that???!!!

Pat Cadell just got cut off by Matthews again in the middle of a good point...saying PBC's numbers don't add up!
