Seven women participated in the National Organization for Women’s day of protest against Rush Limbaugh in front of Limbaugh’s D.C. affiliate WMAL, Friday. NOW’s national protest day had been in the works since April 19, when the women’s advocacy group launched their “Enough Rush” campaign. Pairing with media watchdog Media Matters for America NOW is targeting local affiliates and local advertisers, Friday’s demonstration was touted as the group’s big demonstration of opposition to Limbaugh with affiliates across the country participating in protests. NOW has had Limbaugh in their crosshairs for nearly two decades, and they renewed their effort to get...

Authorities responded Wednesday to the CBS Television Studios in the Fairfax district after a white powdery substance was found in a letter addressed to "Dancing with the Stars," one of the shows filmed there. The call came out about 3:30 p.m. at the CBS studios in the 7800 block of Beverly Boulevard. The substance was determined be harmless after being examined by the Los Angeles Police Department's hazardous materials personnel. It is the second time in as many months that a letter containing an unknown powder was sent to the studios. Earlier, a similar substance was found in a threatening...

Quite unexpectedly, Rand Paul announced he wants to form a Tea Party Caucus. He does not want to caucus with the Republicans? Frankly I'm concerned that he wants to take over the candidates we got elected, in order to form a third party .. led by HIM !!

The University of East Anglia's Hadley Climatic Research Centre appears to have suffered a security breach earlier today, when an unknown hacker apparently downloaded 1079 e-mails and 72 documents of various types and published them to an anonymous FTP server. These files appear to contain highly sensitive information that, if genuine, could prove extremely embarrassing to the authors of the e-mails involved. Those authors include some of the most celebrated names among proponents of the theory of anthropogenic global warming (AGW).

I thought I read this somewhere about a year or two ago. Any help on this?

Under ObamaCare .. if you are turned down for a surgery, for example, can you go to a private doctor and pay for it yourself? I have heard that would be a criminal offense under the plan. Is that true. If so can anyone cite the section/paragraph that covers this?

For several weeks now, we’ve been force fed false statements and downright lies about the healthcare legislation Congress is attempting to put in to law. We’ve all read the headlines, digested the stories and seen the mainstream media sanctioned infomercials. We know exactly what they’re trying to do, but liberal Democrats and their followers continue to push the legislation through. When we combined efforts for the April 15th Tax Day Tea Party, we had more than 20 free-market minded organizations, over 850 organizers, and tens of thousands of American patriots working together to make a unified statement. Last week, Erick...

Sarah Palin is coming to Omaha on Sunday 10/5 .. 6pm, downtown at the Civic!!!

ABC News' Matthew Jaffe reports: Sen. Barack Obama's, D-Ill., vice presidential nominee, Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del., Wednesday said that Sen. Hillary Clinton, D-N.Y., might have been a better pick for the position than him. At a rally in Nashua, N.H., a man in the audience told Biden how glad he was that Obama picked him over Hillary, "not because she's a woman, but because, look at the things she did in the past." "Make no mistake about this," Biden responded. "Hillary Clinton is as qualified or more qualified than I am to be vice president of the United States of...

At the Tuesday-morning meeting with committee staffers, Biden launches into a stream-of-consciousness monologue about what his committee should be doing, before he finally admits the obvious: "I'm groping here." Then he hits on an idea: America needs to show the Arab world that we're not bent on its destruction. "Seems to me this would be a good time to send, no strings attached, a check for $200 million to Iran," Biden declares. He surveys the table with raised eyebrows, a How do ya like that? look on his face.

I might have misheard it, but is sounded as though Obama said redeployment of troops should be done in close CONFRONTATION with the commanders. Maybe he meant close consultation. It would be nice to review the actual audio on that and listen carefully. If he said confrontation it's a major Freudian slip.

WASHINGTON (CNN) -- It was September 1967, and Lt. Cmdr. John McCain was back from Vietnam on home leave. He invited Chuck Larson over for dinner, and during a late night game of bridge, McCain pulled his buddy from the U.S. Naval Academy and flight school aside. Larson recalls being stunned at what he heard. "You know Chuck, I might have to get out of the Navy," McCain told him. "And I said, 'Why is that John?' and he said, 'Well I want to be a serious naval officer. And when I go places now, people tend to not take...

Barack Obama's upcoming swing through Europe and the Middle East is now guaranteed to be a major media event, certified by the presence of the three network anchors. The Washington Post has learned that Brian Williams, Charlie Gibson and Katie Couric will travel overseas next week, lured by the prospect of interviews with the presumed Democratic candidate. That means the NBC, ABC and CBS newscasts will originate from stops on the trip and undoubtedly play it up.

Monica Lewinski's ex-Boyfriend's Wife .. for President Boy does that put things into perspective!!!

Another Barak-ism !! Make sure everyone hears what kind of speaker he is.

"We can't drive our SUVs and eat as much as we want and keep our homes on 72 degrees at all times ... and then just expect that other countries are going to say OK," Obama said.
