In her ongoing audition to be Joe Biden’s veep pick, Michigan Governess Gretchen Whitmer all but convicted a private dam owner for the disastrous floods that struck the middle of the state last Wednesday. However, it wasn’t the dam company that was trying to save a few clams—it was Whitmer’s radical attorney general, Dana Nessel. Nessel was suing the dam company to raise the lake level three feet in order to save mussels—both endangered and common—and in their response, the dam company cited safety as a reason for not doing so. But to Dana Nessel, who is also suing to...

Chris Matthews is almost right about what’s wrong with the Democrats’ Party. But his own words show that the root of their problem isn’t the practice of elitism. It’s the false, un-American understanding of equality he also espouses. True Americans have no qualms about feeling they are better than somebody else, so long as they can prove it. This fair self-respect is one source of the drive that produced individuals fit to brave the wilderness, explore the unknown, risk all their fortune in the belief that they could get the job done better than anyone else. It’s why, as Patton...

The photo, taken in 1935, depicts a woman in a dark dress shuffling down a street in Norden, Germany. A large sign hangs from her neck: “I am a German girl and allowed myself to be defiled by a Jew.” She is surrounded by Nazi stormtroopers. D.C. Council member Trayon White Sr. (D-Ward 8) studied the image. “Are they protecting her?” Lynn Williams, an expert on educational programs at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum and White’s tour guide for the day, stared at the photo. “No,” she said. “They’re marching her through.” “Marching through is protecting,” White said. “I think...

Hillary body double? Please. Yes, stoopid is spelled correctly. Why isn't anyone asking where Huma was during all this Hillary mess during 9-11? Was she at Weiner's?

Ooopsies. Maybe filming yourself being a complete jerk to a poor innocent young woman is not the best idea.

Barack Obama made an uncharacteristic error, more akin to those of his predecessor George W Bush, by referring to the Falkland Islands as the Maldives. President Obama erred during a speech at the Summit of the Americas in Cartagena, Colombia, when attempting to call the disputed archipelago by its Spanish name. Instead of saying Malvinas, however, Mr Obama referred to the islands as the Maldives, a group of 26 atolls off that lie off the South coast of India.

CPS to close at least 20 schoolsProduced by Linda Lutton on Monday, December 22, 2008 The Chicago Public School district is planning on shutting down at least 20 schools. A group of Chicago teachers is calling for a moratorium on school closings. School closings have become an annual ritual in Chicago. District spokesman David Pickens: PICKENS: In schools that are performing poorly, we feel we have an obligation to do something dramatic to turn those schools around. Last week, president elect Barack Obama praised schools chief Arne Duncan for his willingness to close struggling schools and start new ones in...

I have many Republican friends who are disgusted that I'm voting third party this election year. They believe stopping Barack Obama from becoming president outweighs all else. Meanwhile, I have many Democrat friends who are equally disgusted; for them, seeing John McCain defeated is more important than who wins. They are all wasting their votes. Imagine a reckless teenager who constantly runs up his parents' credit cards, smashes the family car every Friday night, is failing in school, and has serious drinking and drug problems. Now imagine that no matter how reckless and dangerous that teenager became, his parents believed...

What a whiner and crybaby old man is Don Shula. I mean really Don, get over it. No matter how good the Patriots do in 2007-2008 it doesnt effect how good you were. You are still as good as you were before the "perfect season" of the Pats. You are embarassing yourself and football generally by your whining about spygate, etc. PS: If your best team ever played the 2007 Pats, you would lose by 50-3. At least.
