A Q13 editor was fired Thursday, after it was revealed that they had doctored a clip of President Trump’s Tuesday Oval Office address. A listener to my program sent me a video that appears to show a deceptively edited video of President Trump’s speech from the Oval Office. We performed a side-by-side comparison of the video from our listener, apparently taken by a smart phone recording of Q13, to the raw video of Trump’s speech from CNN. That comparison revealed the Q13 video creating a loop of the President licking his lips — making it seem bizarre and unbalanced —...

Migrants have blocked rail traffic at the Macedonian border as they protested against a decision to only allow Syrians, Afghans and Iraqis to cross there from Greece. Several sewed their lips together with cord, with at least one declaring a hunger strike before sitting down in front of lines of Macedonian riot police.

Jeffrey Goldberg, an indefatigable defender of the president when it comes to Israel, has done the president no favors by revealing President Obama’s deep-seated arrogance and lack of respect for our democratic ally Israel. Goldberg writes: In the weeks after the UN vote [on Palestinian observer status], Obama said privately and repeatedly, “Israel doesn’t know what its own best interests are.” With each new settlement announcement, in Obama’s view, Netanyahu is moving his country down a path toward near-total isolation. . . . On matters related to the Palestinians, the president seems to view the prime minister as a political...

January 15, 2013 ALAN COLMES’S LIPS ARE SO DAMN SWOLLEN IT’S UNBELIEVABLE Eddie Scarry On Fox News’ The O’Reilly Factor tonight, liberal commentator Alan Colmes showed up on set looking particularly puffy in the lips.

A loosely organized crime ring that targeted vulnerable adults set their sights on Navy veteran Frances "Patrick" Fleming after learning about his prized coin collection last year, according to King County prosecutors. Fleming, 70, got to know members of the group, believing they were related to a neighbor at the Four Freedoms House, a senior independent-living center in Seattle's Bitter Lake neighborhood, prosecutors say in court documents. People closest to Fleming said he was extremely friendly and often talked about his nearly 40-year-old coin collection to anyone who would listen. It was his eagerness to chat about the coins that...

Loose Lips Sink Ships

KABUL - Thousands of U.S., British and Afghan troops are poised to launch the biggest offensive of the war in Afghanistan in a test of the Obama administration's new counterinsurgency strategy. Military operations usually are intended to catch the enemy off guard, but for weeks U.S. and allied officials have been telling reporters about their forthcoming assault on Marjah, a Taliban-held town of 80,000 and drug-trafficking hub in southern poppy-growing Helmand province.

Women who have plump full lips look younger than their years, scientists have said. Devotees of collagen injections and silicone implants have long believed it and now research has backed their theory that a bee stung pout can belie their true age. Even if the woman in question has wrinkles, eye bags, sagging jowels and greying hair, a rosy and firm set of lips will make them appear younger

"Thanking the Guard Dogs" 25 November 2009 LTC(R) Allen West Greetings to all and I wish everyone a very Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.

As I sit here today and prepare for tomorrow my thoughts hearken back to the times when I was not able to be with my family. I think of those days when my family were my Brother and...

Sent to the President Just now, Read my Lips, I don't want Government Health Care. Don't want cap and trade either. Cap the trial lawyers and the settlements they get. Control costs by passing the Fair Tax. Do you care about our nation? Then you will pass the Fair Tax Asap. That is the only thing which will save our nation from ruin. Get on it or get out. Paul Goertz, An American citizen and Patriot.

Burns, singer with 1980s pop band Dead or Alive, has had several cosmetic procedures on his face and is suing a Harley Street surgeon for an estimated £1million over a botched attempt to remove lip implants.

The Rolling Stones’ music has been downright awful since Tattoo You (1981) – but Mick Jagger’s big lips keep on yammering. Mick, the great arrogant hypocrite, with a net worth of $500,000,000.00, and 7 children he couldn’t give a damn about, is now lecturing American conservatives about morality: The Rolling Stones, not exactly a band at the forefront of rock 'n' roll activism, are taking aim at the American right with a new song on their upcoming album, according to Newsweek magazine. The track, "Sweet Neo Con," boasts the line, "You call yourself a Christian, I call you a hypocrite/You...

US star visits Sudan 28/10/2004 11:00 - (SA) Khartoum - Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie said on Wednesday the situation in Darfur was "unbelievably horrible" and that security remained a major problem, after a tour of Sudan's war-torn region. "It is just the worst thing I have ever seen ... What is happening to the people and women there is just unbelievably horrible," the United Nations goodwill ambassador told reporters in the Sudanese capital. The United Nations says the 20-month-old conflict pitting government forces and Arab militia allies against ethnic minority rebels has created the world's worst ongoing humanitarian crisis, while...

Ban me, but have the courage to accept the truth. This War is wrong. Many innocent Iraqis have died. Many Americans have died. Iraq is in chaos. No food. No water. No power. I don't care if staged events involving a few criminals and looters make the people appear to be happy. Ask the ones who had their lives destroyed by American bombs. There are no WMDs. America will remain in Iraq long enough to: A) plunder its resouces B) ensure a Bush election victory in spite of massive deficits and a terrible economy. THIS WAR IS WRONG.
