Wednesday on FNC’s “America Reports,” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) argued the United States should be “all in”on Ukraine. According to the South Carolina Republican lawmaker, failure in Ukraine would set a bad precedent for hostile actors around the globe. “A lot of news, a lot happening,” host Sandra Smith said. “We’re watching the White House. We will be watching the Capitol later today. To what extent do you believe this country should continue to aid Ukraine in this fight?” “Completely all in, without equivocation,” he said. “If Putin dismembers Ukraine, he will not stop. China’s more likely to go into...

Anthony Fauci, the chief medical adviser to President Biden, said on Sunday that the U.S. is in a “much better” place in the pandemic compared to a year ago but stressed it is not completely over. “I don’t like reading in the newspapers or getting my report from the COVID team: today we lost 400 people, today we lost 350 people,” Fauci said during an appearance on CBS’s “Face the Nation.” “So it’s much, much better than it was, but it is not at a level low enough where we should feel we’re done with it completely, because we’re not.”

Being in character is no place to be , For if you truly remain in me , There is no you left there , But me in you and no despair , For truly to be holy as me , It is I that must rise up completed and free !

John 14:3 3"If I go and prepare a place for...

First, from the perspective of electoral politics, Rush Limbaugh is not much of a factor. That's not to say he is unimportant in other ways. He influences lots of people and is certainly important from a cultural perspective. But we're talking about elections - where more than a hundred million people participate. That has to change our evaluation of his influence. Additionally, he might be a hot topic for a few news cycles, but news cycles are drops in the bucket from an electoral perspective. Second, there is value in the discussion among conservatives about the future of their movement....

Internet inventor Al Gore launched another entertaining diatribe yesterday. His missives were, of course, directed towards the Republican effort to get simple up-or-down votes on President Bush's judicial nominees. You know, the way the Congress has been operating for only, oh, the last couple of centuries. Well, Mr. Gore says that the GOP has a "lust for one-party domination.' Dammit, someone revealed the secret! Who let it out that Rove and company have a lasvicious, carnal desire to crush the Democrats beneath a spiked boot heel? He also noted, in what was likely a nasally and monotonal whine, the GOP's...

U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell, speaking before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee today, has called the Sudanese rampage against Black Africans a “genocide:” We concluded that genocide has been committed in Darfur and that the government of Sudan and the Janjaweed [Arab militia] bear responsibility and genocide may still be occurring. The Sudanese government has been sponsoring a campaign of mass rape, mass murder, forced relocations, and forced starvation against Black Africans in Darfur. The BBC today tried to spin the usual “the U.S. is damned if it does and damned if it doesn’t” argument today: Critics point out...
