NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Former Vice President Al Gore and his wife, Tipper, are separating after 40 years of marriage. According to an e-mailed statement obtained by The Associated Press on Tuesday, the Gores said it was "a mutual and mutually supportive decision that we have made together following a process of long and careful consideration." Gore spokeswoman Kalee Kreider confirmed the statement came from the Gores, but declined to comment further. Al Gore lost the 2000 presidential election to Republican George W. Bush. He has since campaigned worldwide to draw attention to climate change, which in 2007 led to...

KABUL (BNO NEWS) – An intensive battle that left eight U.S. soldiers and two Afghan soldiers dead on Saturday also killed more than 100 militants, according to the NATO-led International Security Assistance Force (ISAF) on Tuesday. Officials had earlier said it inflicted "heavy enemy casualties" during the militant attack on two ISAF and Afghan National Security Forces outposts. "A more detailed battlefield assessment following the Oct. 3 attack in Nuristan has determined that enemy forces suffered more than 100 dead during the well-coordinated defense -- significantly higher losses than originally thought," ISAF said in a statement. The Nuristani tribal militia...

Taking Rep. Lee's (D-TX) track record into account, and knowing her fondness for all things Obama, I would say that it's a pretty fair assumption that she did. Thanks to Patterico's Pontifications and Lone Star Times we have the video clip and story of Roxanna Mayer at a town hall meeting, hosted by Rep. Lee, introducing herself as a doctor (general practitioner) of four years. Turns out that she's not a doctor (nor a Sheila Jackson Lee constituent) at all, but an Obama delegate.

WASHINGTON -- Obama administration officials are holding discussions that could result in White House counsel Gregory Craig leaving his post, following a rocky tenure, people familiar with the matter said. Mr. Craig, the top lawyer at the White House and a close aide to President Barack Obama, has helped lead the administration's efforts on several national-security issues that have stirred political problems for Mr. Obama. These include the closure of the prison at Guantanamo Bay, Cuba, the release of Bush administration-era national-security documents, and efforts to find legal ways to indefinitely hold some detainees who can't be put on trial....

Obama supporters definitely can't claim that this is a still shot from a video that is being blown out of proportion and context. While in Russia President Obama is totally snubbed in a receiving line by a group of individuals who refuse to shake his hand, but gladly shake the hand of Russian President Medvedev.

NBC White House correspondent Chuck Todd speculates that President Obama is using golf as just an excuse to sneak out and enjoy a few cigarettes. Truth is he's a better smoker than golfer.

An extremely accurate portrayal of how healthcare will look if ran by the U.S. government.

Kid From Brooklyn has uncovered this video of Maria Belen Chapur, Gov. Sanford's other woman, doing 9/11 coverage.

Welcome to the political version of "Green Acres". In this re-make of a classic television show Michelle Obama plants tasty vegetables in the White House lawn and President Obama plants his own questions in a White House press conference. Reports are starting to come out that President Obama planted a question yesterday during his White House press conference by calling upon Nico Pitney of the Huffington Post with a question about the Iranian elections. Here's how the whole staged event went down.

President Obama's State Dept. reiterated it's desire to still invite Iranian diplomats over to all U.S. embassies around the world for 4th of July celebrations.

All three of the liberal mainstream media morning shows (ABC, NBC, and CBS) were just having a collective orgasm this morning over President Obama killing a fly yesterday during an interview on CNBC. NewsBusters has compiled a video montage of this sickening slobbering over the man that ABC has sold out too. Wouldn't you have an orgasm too if you learned that your President is the karate kid?

I guess NBC finally realized that they had to make an attempt to show that there not so "in the tank" for everything that President Obama is shovelling out. David Gregory on yesterdays "Meet the Press" decided to decline the kool-aid and challenge Vice-President Joe Biden on the administrations "jobs saved or created" claim and the promise that Obama's stimulus package would hold unemployment at or below 8%.

CBS News (of all places) is reporting a recent gaffe that was made by President Obama. It appears that the man who the media is telling us is the most brilliant President in our nations history doesn't even know the correct name of the desk inside the Oval Office that he likes to use as a footstool.

You knew it wasn't going to last forever, but you would have thought that Obamas' honeymoon with liberal Hollywood would have lasted longer then most. Earlier this week celebrity libtard Roseanne Barr expressed her complete dissatisfaction with President Obama, now it's Bill Mahers' turn to get his licks in. Maher is totally pissed that Obama is more obsessed with being a media celebrity instead of ramming socialism down our throats.

Racist, bigot, and hate-mongering pastor of President Obama for the past 20 years is at it again. We already know he hates America. We already know he hates whites. We even know that he hates some blacks too. So this should come as no surprise that he also hates "Them Jews".

No, Michelle hasn't gone out to another charity event for the downtrodden wearing a pair of $540 sneakers. This time it's President Obama who released a photo of himself on the phone with Israeli PM Benjamin Netanyahu with his feet up on the desk, clearing exposing the soles of his shoes to the camera. As y'all are well aware, showing the soles of your shoes to anyone in the Middle East is a major insult.
