A Clear and Present Danger – Tuesday, November 2, 2010 For the first time in many American’s lives, a majority of us are ready to follow the advice of fictional TV news anchor Howard Beal, run to our windows, stick out our heads and scream “I’m mad as hell and I’m not going to take it anymore!” But yelling is not enough. The Dems are trying to steal the election. We must stop them. We have NOT won yet, and we can still lose. There is no doubt that America is at a crossroads. We either follow the logical lead...

WOONSOCKET, Rhode Island (Reuters) – President Barack Obama on Monday touted his administration's job-creation efforts just eight days before elections in which voters' economic anxiety threatens his Democrats' grip on Congress. Making a stop in the tiny state of Rhode Island in the final campaign sprint to Election Day, Obama visited a small factory outside Providence. "When I tour plants like this it makes me optimistic. It took us a long time to get us into this economic hole that we've been in. But we are going to get out and I am absolutely convinced there are brighter days ahead...

There are only 25 days left until Americans head to the polls and push the button for their candidates of choice. It was a rough, but interesting primary cycle leading up to this moment. One of which resulted in many establishment candidates from both parties either dropping out of the race or getting booted out by their constituents. If the primaries have any indication on how November 2nd will go, it will be a very interesting and entertaining night! I am not big on polls. At their best they are snapshots in time and at their worst they serve as...

When in the Course of human events, it becomes necessary for One Man to create political bands which shall bind a people unto himself, and to assume among the powers of the Earth, the separate and more equal station to which the Laws of Alinsky and of Alinsky's god Lucifer entitles him, a decent self-respect and care for the opinions of posterity requires that he should declare the methods which impel him to the Throne. I hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, but that I am more Equal than others; that they are endowed...

Vinny Gambini: "I think ... I get ... the point." Judge Chamberlain Haller:" No, I don't think you do." — Dialogue from "My Cousin Vinny." Did President Obama get the point? With their ballots, the people of Virginia, New Jersey and Massachusetts have told him in no uncertain terms they are deeply dissatisfied with him and members of Congress. To them and a solid majority of Americans, "Washington" is shorthand for all that's wrong with America. The people are fed up with the rancor, partisanship, gridlock, empty promises and childishness that have stained their government. They are alarmed by D.C.'s...

Watching the election results roll in this year should be different. Still stinging from the media meltdown in calling the 2000 elections, news organizations are likely to be more cautious in projecting winners, making for a longer night. Nevertheless, from the time the voting booths begin closing on the East Coast on Election Day, important clues will emerge as to how the contest between President Bush and Sen. John Kerry will end. Here is a guide, in West Coast time, to what to look for as the candidates start adding up electoral votes to try to reach the magic 270...

OCTOBER ELECTION SURPRISES! Guest opinion by Don Bendell We Americans are all members of one giant dysfunctional family. Are we the uninformed victims of an addict, our collective heads buried deep in the sandpit of denial? When we tire of the misery from the choking sands and darkness, and hit our bottom, we will yank our heads up into the bright light of reason and discernment. I pray that it happens today, before it is too late. I have been a grateful recovering alcoholic for almost 36 years, and married to a recovering alcoholic for over 23 years. Overcoming denial...
