Cincinnati Tea Party meets downtown Cincinnati, to hold candlelight vigil and send a massage to U.S.Rep.Steve Driehaus-DWest Price Hill,to vote no on the Obama Insurance Bill. My final headcount was nearly 400, counting teenagers and children too.

HILLARY Down Arrow Hillary squirms on Gov. Spitzer's driver's-licenses- for-illegals plan, which "makes a lot of sense" but isn't "the best thing for any governor to do." P.S., she says she "did not say that it should be done." Later, Clinton guru Mark Penn says the plan is "a good idea." Well, at least they have advanced licenses to spin. Down Arrow That self-inflicted wound was bad enough. Instead of getting out the gauze and Bactine, operatives make things worse - issuing a muddled clarification statement and suggesting moderator Tim Russert was unfair, and meanie male opponents were piling on...

Want to know where the Democratic Party stands and where America would be under their leadership? Just ask Jimmy Carter. Carter is certainly not bashful about bashing the United States, even on foreign soil or to the foreign press. He sat for an interview with Der Spiegel recently and fired with both barrels at President Bush, "fundamentalist" Christians and Israel. But do Carter's views represent those of the Democratic Party?

Al Jazeera aired new footage of Osama bin Laden today along with audiotapes. You know, the usual stuff. Called Bush evil ... the great Satan ... a warmonger. All the same stuff we heard last night at the Democratic presidential debates. Did you watch the nine Democrats debate last night? One of the candidates was wearing a Darth Vader helmet. Then I realized, that was just Al Sharpton’s hair. Democratic presidential candidate Al Sharpton said that blacks are tiring of the Democratic Party and it has to stop treating blacks as their mistress. Sharpton explained that a "mistress is where...

Socialists reveal tax plans Tommy Sheridan is the party's only MSP at present Proposals to replace council tax with an earnings related tax have been unveiled by the Scottish Socialist Party (SSP). The Scottish service tax would be an income-based levy which would increase the top rate of tax for high earners from the current 40% to 60%. At the top of the scale, earnings over £90,000 a year would be taxed at an additional 20%, while incomes below £10,000 would be tax exempt. Party leader Tommy Sheridan said the change would leave 16% of Scottish households worse off but...
