Robert Cressionnie told more than 400 people at the nonpartisan Tar River Tea Party’s Tax Day Rally to reach down Saturday and grab a blade of grass. “Because this is the grassroots right here,” he said. “Most conservatives want to live their lives alone and in peace, but the entitlement crowd is not like that ... they want what we have,” said Cressionnie, the Tea Party’s organizer. He said 47 percent of the U.S. population doesn’t pay any federal income tax, and that it’s wrong for the other 53 percent to pick up the tab. From 2 to 4 p.m.,...

Yesterday I attended the Tea Party in Raleigh, NC held at the State Capitol Building. From talking to others, the crowd was estimated at about 400. Upon arrival everyone signed in and got their "tea bag" to wear. Tables were set up by the Americans for Prosperity organization and the John Locke Foundation. Food was served for the first 150 people arriving, and I apologize for not remembering the names of the two restaurants that provided the refreshments. The crowd grew silent when the Star Spangled Banner began to play. Everyone stopped what they were doing, the men removed their...

The Red Hen in the Barnyard Once upon a time, on a farm in Virginia, there was a little red hen who scratched about the barnyard until she uncovered quite a few grains of wheat. She called all of her neighbors together and said, 'If we plant this wheat, we shall have bread to eat. Who will help me plant it?' 'Not I,' said the cow. 'Not I,' said the duck. 'Not I,' said the pig. 'Not I,' said the goose. 'Then I will do it by myself,' said the little red hen, and so she did. The wheat grew...

Much of the story behind Saddam Hussein's eight months on the run has yet to be made public. But US military and intelligence officials say the Iraqi dictator never wandered far from the banks of the Tigris. Remaining within the Sunni heartland, he scrambled from one farmhouse to the next, sometimes by car or van, sometimes by boat. By contrast, Osama bin Laden, leader of the al-Qaeda terrorist group, appears to have become far more adept at evading the manhunt. The US is unshaken in its will to find its other most-wanted fugitive. Last week, General Richard Myers, chairman of...

DURHAM, N.C. - Novelist Michael Peterson was convicted Friday of murdering his wife, whose body was found in a pool of blood at the bottom of a staircase in their home. Peterson, 59, remained motionless as the verdict was read and each juror asked if he or she agreed with it. With the verdict, he was automatically sentenced to life in prison without parole. Peterson, whose books include the 1990 Vietnam novel "A Time of War" and its 1995 sequel, "A Bitter Peace," was convicted of beating his second wife, Kathleen Peterson, in December 2001. Prosecutors said he may have...

Susan Page USA TODAY WASHINGTON -- War in Iraq could do more than topple Saddam Hussein. Another potential casualty: the system of global alliances that has governed the world since World War II. After Sunday's summit in the Azores, Portugal, President Bush is poised to order a U.S.-led attack on Iraq even if the Security Council fails today to approve a resolution paving the way. He is proceeding with the support of such new allies as Bulgaria but against the open opposition of longtime friends such as France, a comrade in arms since the days of the American Revolution. He...

I just wanted to congratulate all the people who helped put the Republicans in complete control of our government; this includes those Democrats who stayed home on election day. Here is what has been accomplished since Mr. Bush was appointed president and now that the Senate is controlled by the Republicans we can look forward to even more "prosperity." While Bush has been President: ..Unemployment has risen from 3.9 percent to 6.0 percent; ..42 states will or expect to make Medicaid Cuts; ..41.2 million people in America have no health insurance; ..Number of Americans living in poverty rises for first...

Broward's first black supervisor of elections is the victim of a racist plot to undermine her authority and dignity, according to several members of the black community who attended a community forum on Friday. Over the past two weeks, critics have repeatedly lampooned and blasted Broward Supervisor of Elections Miriam Oliphant for mishaps in the Sept. 10 primary election. They cited shoddy poll worker training, no-show poll clerks and incorrect voter registration cards. But those who attended Friday's forum, offered support for Oliphant and blamed other factors for the troubled election. They cited county commissioners who would not purchase the...

HOUSTON, Sept. 21 (UPI) -- Jurors recessed Friday night after failing to determine the mental competency of Andrea Yates, the Houston mother who allegedly drowned her five children. The jury will resume deliberation Saturday morning. The jury of 11 women and one man worked for nearly five hours Friday before the judge ordered them sequestered for the night. After hearing three days of testimony the jury must determine if the 37-year-old Houston mother understands the capital murder charges against her and can assist her attorneys. If the jurors find Yates competent to stand trial she would go before another ...

WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Defense Secretary Donald Rumsfeld said Sunday the "terrorist network" responsible for the attacks on America is "bigger than one person" and the United States will go after countries that harbor "terrorists" and their organizations.
