Mayor Pete might be in the running for biggest gaffe of the week after a bit of an audible outburst at a New Hampshire Town Hall. Watch the video:

Ex-Olympic skater and current NBC commentator for the Sochi games Johnny Weir is not shy about protesting Russia's homosexual laws live on air, if his wardrobe has anything to say about it. Weir has appeared with full makeup -- blush, lipstick, etc. -- as well as silk blouses and gaudy jewelry. Hairstyles have ranged from piled on top to a braided tiara (seen below). This was his plan from the beginning...

LIBERACE’S ex-lover has claimed to have had a gay fling with Michael Jackson. Scott Thorson, 54 — whose life with the pianist was turned into film Behind The Candelabra — said he began bedding Jacko in 1982 after he and Liberace split. He said: “I was introduced to Michael Jackson through Liberace back in 1977 and we had a fantastic relationship. “When we broke up in 1982, Michael swept me off my feet and said, ‘Hey, I’m breaking away from the Jackson 5. I’m going solo’. This is when the Thriller tour started. Michael swept me off my feet.” Asked...

It really didn’t matter what Charlie Crist had to say in his much-publicized remarks to the Democratic National Committee. All signs point to Crist — former Republican governor of Florida-turned-Independent for Obama — making a comeback attempt for his old statehouse job in 2014, this time as a Democrat. A just-completed PPP Poll showed Crist (who has yet to register as a Democrat) defeating incumbent Republican Gov. Rick Scott by a margin of 45 to 42 percent among likely voters statewide. In his remarks tonight, Crist made a spirited defense of Obama and the economic stimulus package that he broke...

March 1, 2010 Anderson Cooper Said to Meet With CBS News Executives By BRIAN STELTER Do CBS News executives have their sights set on Anderson Cooper? Mr. Cooper, a prime time CNN anchor, already contributes to “60 Minutes,” the prestigious CBS newsmagazine. And the relationship could expand. Monday’s New York Times reports: CBS executives, mindful that Katie Couric’s contract expires in a little over a year, have talked to Anderson Cooper of CNN about an anchor job, according to two TV veterans informed of the meeting. The meeting took place months ago, well before Mr. Cooper was dispatched to cover...

BOSTON (AP) - Mary Ritchie, a Massachusetts State Police trooper, has been married for almost five years and has two children. But when she files her federal income tax return, she's not allowed to check the "married filing jointly" box.

Hillary supporters do not despair: You do have a woman on the Obama ticket and her name is Joseph “Jo” Biden. When Obama talks about wealth distribution, he seldom, if ever, mentions any related programs by name. But you can bet your last dollar – and you won’t have much else left by then – that Jo Biden is percolating plans for a national “man tax.” Legislating a “man tax” (reparations of sorts) will be done under the noble guise of compensating women to the benefit of all society and, of course, especially children. The Financial Times of London last...

Chris Matthews is interviewing Andrea Lafferty from the Traditional Values Coalition and Martin Kaplan from the Annenberg USC school of Communications.

I have wanted Trent Lott removed from leadership since Impeachment. The spineless weasel had the votes to bring live witnesses before the Senate on national television that would have revealed the extent of Bill Clinton's sexual predator history. David Schippers called it a SELLOUT. Schippers was absolutely correct. Could the prosecutors have changed enough minds to get 67 votes? We will never know. They should have had the opportunity to try. Lott is the one who stood in the way. The RATS have been in turmoil since the midterm elections. They were shocked to their core. And now, Lott puts...
