Best to brush up on our British slang........they are the only ones printing the truth in America for us to read.

Yes. The London Telegraph practices actual journalism. It's amazing.

LBJ could have run for another term, legally, since his replacing JFK was less than two years of time. The war in Vietnam was going badly, the nation was in turmoil. The senior Democrat leaders of the time went to LBJ and basically demanded that he not seek another term in the ‘68 election................

they cannot go to the FIRST BLACK PREZ and demand he back down from a second term...he is already in campaign mode and MO would tackle them before they got to the door of the Oval office. they are all going down with him.

Actually that’s the IMF that had the alleged rapist. The next IMF head is likely that French woman. As for the World Bank that is headed by Zoellick who is out in 2012.

I cannot believe the codswallop of the witch hunt of the Sarah Palin e-mail dump. I am absolutely agog that they are going to look at every one of her e-mails for two years, yet we still don’t know our President’s SAT scores.

how about they study the ObamaCare bill? we still don’t know what all is in that. our media is nothing but a research arm of the DNC.

If the economy keeps going down, the unemployment rate keeps going up, prices of food, gasoline and utilities keep going up, crime rate going up, they may have no choice. This will be an interesting summer.................
