I have come up with a new term for the changing political lexicon in America. snip I just don't see much difference between many of those who call themselves "conservative" and those who call themselves "liberal." snip If George Bush is a "conservative," the word has lost any meaning whatsoever. snip "Neo-con" is the favorite epithet of people like Pat Buchanan and the anti-war crowd. These are the people who, for whatever reason, fail to recognize that America is at war. snip For many of them, this was not the way they saw the world during the Cold War. This...

France declared a state of emergency Tuesday to quell the country's worst unrest since the student uprisings of 1968 that toppled a government, and the prime minister said the nation faced a "moment of truth" over its failure to integrate Arab and African immigrants and their children. Rioters ignored the extraordinary security measures, which began Wednesday, as they looted and burned two superstores, set fire to a newspaper office and paralyzed France's second largest city's subway system with a gasoline bomb. The measures, valid for 12 days, clear the way for curfews after nearly two weeks of rioting in neglected...

A little-used Texas law could decide the future of Rep. Tom Delay, the former House majority leader who is charged with conspiracy and money laundering in an alleged campaign-finance scheme. Grand jurors looking into 2002 campaign contributions indicted DeLay on Monday for the second time in less than a week. House rules required him to step down from his leadership post pending the outcome of the case. "I have not seen a criminal conspiracy case in Texas for a long, long time," said Austin-based defense attorney Ray Bass, who is not involved in the DeLay case. "In the last 20...

MSNBC's Chris Matthews is running wild with this NY Times story, titled "Many Contracts for Storm Work Raise Questions." He pushed the article in every guest's face in the first 30 minutes of "Hardball." Rep. Peter King (R-NY) said, "The fact that it's the New York Times means nothing to me." The last time this issue came up, Michelle Malkin reported that CNN, the NY Times and others neglected to mention any of the Democratic-Party affiliations of the firms that were getting no-bid contracts. Only Republican-Party affiliations got mentioned: The Baton Rouge-based Shaw Group, CNN tells us, is a major...

A new Democratic effort to whip up indignation about the Bush administration's handling of Hurricane Katrina also tried to raise money for Democratic candidates. Sen. Charles Schumer, a New York Democrat and the head of the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, issued an appeal Thursday urging people to sign an online petition to fire the head of the Federal Emergency Management Agency over his handling of the Katrina response.

The report highlights the danger of our lax immigration system, not just in terms of who is allowed in, but also how terrorists, once in the country, used weaknesses in the system to remain here. The report makes clear that strict enforcement of immigration law – at American consulates overseas, at ports of entry, and within the United States – must be an integral part of our efforts to prevent future attacks on U.S. soil. Of the 94 foreign-born terrorists who operated in the United States, the study found that about two-thirds (59) committed immigration fraud prior to or in...

U.S. civil rights leader Reverend Jesse Jackson Sr., condemned calls by conservative Christian Coalition leader Pat Robertson’s to assassinate Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez. “These comments are morally reprehensible and dangerously suggestive. The international community repudiates Robertson’s remarks, and calls upon him to retract his remarks,” Jackson said in a press release. “Calling for the assassination of world leaders is inciteful and wildly provocative. It is just the latest of Robertson’s outrageous and intemperate declarations; President Bush and Secretary of State Rice should immediately rebuke and disassociate the administration from Robertson’s comments,” Jackson continued. Robertson said in his Monday television show...

Streisand's Stranger in a Strange Land debuted Tuesday on a notable parcel of Internet real estate -- it's spending one week as an exclusive (and free) streaming video on the home page of Amazon.com. It is culled from Guilty Pleasures, the singer's upcoming collaboration album with Bee Gees singer Barry Gibb, who wrote and produced all the songs for the project, slated for a Sept. 30 release. The video shows Streisand, wearing an evening gown and an intense expression, singing lyrics that include "You may be someone else's sweetheart/Fighting someone else's war,/And if you suffer for the millions/Then it's what...
