    He calls 40 minutes early, seemingly aware of the disorientation that comes from having your first conversation with a man you've known all your life. Fortunately, Bob Barker has learned a thing or two about putting people at ease in 32 years hosting his hit daytime game show, CBS's The Price Is Right.Phoning from his Los Angeles home to talk about his upcoming 80th birthday, Barker deploys an easy charm and ready cache of one-liners in discussing everything from fighting the fur industry to kicking Adam Sandler's behind on film.Let wienies such as Wheel of Fortune's Pat Sajak tape a...

    Washington - Nevada conservative activist Janine Hansen is the first to say she is no Democrat or liberal, but she also complains the Bush administration has gone too far in eroding privacy and civil liberties with the Patriot Act and other anti-terrorism measures. Hansen, president of the anti-feminist Nevada Eagle Forum, backed up her complaint Thursday in Reno by stepping forward as a featured speaker at a three-city announcement launching the Nevada Campaign to Defeat the Patriot Act.

    Bob Graham Ends Presidential Campaign Tuesday October 7, 2003 3:01 AM By NEDRA PICKLER Associated Press Writer WASHINGTON (AP) - Bob Graham, a political veteran whose low-key style failed to gain traction in the crowded Democratic presidential race, said Monday night he was ending his campaign. ``I'm leaving because I have made the judgment that I can not be elected president of the United States,'' Graham said in announcing his exit from the race on CNN's ``Larry King Live.'' He said he was not successful because he started his campaign too late and had trouble raising money.

    Bob Sellers is doing an excellent job filling in for John Gibson today. Fox is definetely back on track. Someone from Foxnews must have read my post on back on 7-19-2003. I believe the biggest part of the problem was that Brit Hume was on vacation. Memo to Foxnews. Next time Brit goes on a well deserved vacation have Brian Wilson fill in for him. First I'll start off with Cavuto. What an awesome commentary. I suggest everyone go to the Foxnews.com website Once there you should go to Neil Cavuto's section and read his commentary on eating the rich....

    Former Iraqi Information Minister Mohammed Saeed al-Sahhaf is attempting to surrender to US forces, according to a satirical news web site http://www.parodytimes.com. But Al-Sharq al-Awsat says the Americans have refused to arrest Mr Sahhaf - who became a familiar face during the war with his upbeat assessments of Iraqi military "successes" - because he does not appear on their "most wanted" list of 55 former regime officials.

    A couple of weeks ago, readers of this column were treated to exclusive coverage of the White House Easter Egg Roll through an interview with Iraqi Information Minister Muhammed Saeed al-Sahaf (also known as Baghdad Bob or Comical Ali), who reported live from the South Lawn about the eggs and bunnies and kids that weren’t there. To my delight, the reader response to this column was overwhelming, and many of you took the time to email me your best wishes for Baghdad Bob and your hopes that he was not currently standing in quicksand, having pencils and shoes thrown at...

    Throwing chum on the water is a way of attracting something you want. You toss all kinds of things you figure are yummy to your target and if it brings them in, you use it over and over again. Sometimes you have to change the bait, till you find the right stuff. Sometimes the stuff you used to use successfully in the past stops working and you need to try something new. The Left is running out of stuff and the democrats and liberal pundits are starting to stink from the leftover chum. Take a look at Maureen Dowd of...

In the process, he has gained his own cult following among many Arab television viewers.</p>

    Meet Maryam Massihi. The 21-year-old hooker recently stole political consultant Bob Beckel's heart--at least for a few hours, at $300 per. Then Massihi (who used the names Tiffany and Cindy professionally) and her cohorts allegedly tried to extort $50,000 in hush money from the Democratic heavyweight (he ran Walter Mondale's 1984 presidential campaign). Beckel's recent run-in with Massihi & Co. is detailed in this search warrant affidavit filed August 23 in Alexandria, Virginia's Circuit Court. Beckel discovered his young consort via the Internet (Massihi's electronic come-on is below) and paid her by check, which proved helpful when cops began probing...
