My Easter Message April 22, 2011 Years ago Easter Sunday was more than the Easter Bunny and the Easter egg hunt and dressing up for the Easter parade. If you ask the average 12-year-old American kid what is Easter, he couldn’t tell you. Those of you who have listened to the Bob Grant Show on radio and of late read this column, know I am not a reverend or in any way known for pushing religion. I believe religion is a personal thing and if you worship in a different way than I do, so what? I think the worst...

January 23, 2009 The site, www.revolutionmuslim.com which featured the threat is run by Yousef Al-Khattab, a New York City cab driver who operates the extremist Islamic anti-American Web site that features violent images on a daily basis: From the Statue of Liberty, with an ax blade cutting through her side; to a video mocking the beheading of American journalist Daniel Pearl, entitled “Daniel Pearl I am Happy Your Dead “; or the latest speech from Sheikh Abdullah Faisal, an extremist Muslim cleric convicted in the UK and later deported for soliciting the murder of non-Muslims.

Some 3,000 Chabad rabbis and communal leaders converged on Brooklyn for an annual conference. The International Conference of Chabad Lubavitch Emissaries, colloquially known as the “Shluchim” conference, began Thursday and will run through Monday. It will be highlighted by a banquet Sunday night that is expected to draw some 4,000 people to the Garden State Exhibit Center in Somerset, N.J. It will be the first time the banquet is held outside New York. The banquet will honor Sami Rohr, who has given tens of millions of dollars to Chabad and other educational causes.

September 11, 2006 -- IF Sean Hannity has his way, talk-radio titan Bob Grant will return from his WABC "exile" soon. Grant, 76, was abruptly fired 10 years ago - right after Disney bought ABC - for making a wisecrack about the death of Commerce Secretary Ron Brown in a plane crash. Now, WABC is awaiting the closing of a Disney deal to sell ABC's radio division to Citadel Broadcasting - which could open the door for Grant's return.

Earlier today, a few of us were talking about the satirically campy exchanges that occur all too often on Hannity's radio program. jaop As much as Willie Cunningham is loved, he should be flogged for introducing Hannity to the phrase "great American". On average, how many times per show will Hannity and a guest call each other "great Americans"? We counted 9 during the last hour of his show; pre-Christmas vacation.

I listen to 770 - AM out of New York City and hear a constant stream of ads for the New Jersey State Senate and House races. I'm in Connecticut but I'd like to learn more about what's going on there. I know that the GOP suffered some fairly severe losses in 2001 - but what's the outlook for this year? Of particular interest is Ellen Karcher vs John Bennett. Both have some really nasty attack ads on the air. The race must be a hot one!
