    Michelle Obama is looking forward to getting her “anonymity” back. The first lady complained in an interview that aired Monday night with Oprah Winfrey on CBS that her biggest sacrifice while Barack Obama served as president was giving up her ability to be anonymous. But soon, she believes, that’ll change. “You know, there’s nowhere I can go in the world and just sit at a table and have a cup of coffee and watch the world,” Obama said in what is expected to be her final sit-down interview. Oprah doubted Obama will get her anonymity back — but the outgoing...

    Like old soldiers, it’s time for John McCain to just fade away Posted April 9, 2013 14:50 by Rick Adams with 1 comment According to Breitbart.com’s April 7th, 2013 article titled, “McCain: ‘I don’t understand’ filibustering gun control,” Senator John McCain expressed bewilderment on CBS’ “Face the Nation” that GOP Sens. Cruz, Lee and Paul would filibuster gun control legislation. “I don’t understand it,” McCain said. “The purpose of the United States Senate is to debate and to vote and to let the people know where we stand.” McCain’s comments should set off alarms in every Republican, Conservative, and Libertarian...

    The father of one of the Navy SEALs who was killed in the Libya consulate attack has criticised the White House reaction to his son's death - especially a bizarre and obscene comment Joe Biden made to him. Charles Woods, father of Tyrone Woods, said he thought Barack Obama had 'no remorse' over the attack and felt Hillary Clinton was 'not telling the truth'. --- Vice President approached his family and asked, 'Did your son always have balls the size of cue balls?' Mr Woods added that the President seemed cold and distant at the time, saying: 'Shaking hands with...

    Sitting in a Washington bar with the Morning Joe crew on MSNBC Tuesday morning, former NBC anchor grew emotional remembering the 1960s. "I get very emotional. It has been hard for me to walk through the streets. And I think that the day is going to be very emotional." Brokaw even grew bold enough to tell the "bigots and rednecks" he met in the Sixties "when we were evolving as a country" to suffer through the Obama inauguration: "Take this. You know?" The Morning Joe crew was discussing how Barack Obama was so different than past administrations in their lack...

    Sixteen years ago, California voters enacted term limits in hopes of purging Sacramento of career politicians. The career politicians are not going quietly. The 2006 election will feature a gaggle of legislators, who are prohibited from seeking re-election, hoping to move up to one of the seven low-visibility, statewide constitutional offices below governor. And, in an unprecedented development, three constitutional officeholders are looking to make lateral moves to avoid losing their places in line for some future bid for governor or the U.S. Senate. Attorney General Bill Lockyer is running for treasurer. Lt. Gov. Cruz Bustamante and Insurance Commissioner John...

    <p>Al Gore will try to boost his party's chances of regaining the White House by criticizing President Bush's Iraq policy in a speech today, in which he will call for the resignation of five Bush administration officials and one military leader.      The event, sponsored by the political action committee of the liberal group MoveOn.org., seeks to motivate the Democratic base. Mr. Gore will argue that Mr. Bush's foreign policy has created animosity against the United States throughout the Islamic world and is putting Americans at greater risk.</p>
