LONDON -- Julian Assange, the founder of the WikiLeaks Web site whose release of sensitive U.S. documents on the Internet has generated outrage and embarrassment in officials circles, was arrested by British police Tuesday morning on a Swedish warrant, and was set to appear before a magistrate for a bail hearing later today.Assange turned himself in at a London police station at 9:30 a.m. local time, and was immediately taken into custody, police officials said.

Question: Does it matter that most of today’s Western rebels are driven by socialism? Or that the lobotomized mainstream media never isolates this trait when reporting these rogues? In the West there is no larger group of man-made disaster-makers than modern liberals. Cursing the world with their withering self-righteousness, socialists and Marxists like Julian Assange have been a global plague since the French Revolution. The fact is when journalists report on those sharing their own worldview, typically they display no professional discipline. And the coverage gets sloppy. There is no doubt that Assange is a committed leftist. We know this...

Yet another Southern California wildfire underway, this time in the eastern San Diego County area near Witch Creek on Highway 78 between Ramona and Julian. Wind driven fire, caused by power lines dropping. Over a thousand acres since its start about an hour and a half ago.

FNC's Julian Phillips is losing his Fox & Friends Weekend anchor gig, FTVLive reports. The site says Phillips couldn't muster up on-screen chemistry with Kiran Chetry and Alisyn Camerota. D.C. correspondent Kelly Wright will replace Phillips "as soon as this weekend." In addition, Rudi Bakhtiar is reportedly getting a higher-profile assignment in the 5pm hour. She may be used to attract more eyeballs to The Big Story; it was the lowest-rated weekday FNC program in the 25-54 demographic in the second quarter...

OK, I am going to give most of you the day off. The rest of you need to pay close attention. You have some work to do. A lot of you I know like a book. That comes from almost a decade of responding to your letters and emails on a variety of subjects. You've told me in no uncertain terms that you don't like watching cowboys kiss each other. In fact, watching the media gush over boys marrying boys and girls marrying girls makes you want to upchuck your biscuits and gravy. You don't have much tolerance for those...

Civil rights activist and NAACP Chairman Julian Bond delivered a blistering partisan speech at Fayetteville State University in North Carolina last night, equating the Republican Party with the Nazi Party and characterizing Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice and her predecessor, Colin Powell, as "tokens." "The Republican Party would have the American flag and the swastika flying side by side," he charged. The talk so infuriated at least one black family in attendance that they got up in walked out in protest.

Page raises the collective IQ of the show!

BALTIMORE (AP) — The president of the NAACP is stepping down as head of the nation's oldest and largest civil rights group, according to newspaper reports. Kweisi Mfume, who has been president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People since 1996, planned to make the announcement Tuesday, The (Baltimore) Sun, citing an anonymous source, reported in Tuesday editions. The resignation was also reported Tuesday in a USA Today opinions column by weekly contributor DeWayne Wickham.

NAACP: Nonpartisan Branch of the Democratic Party By Andrew L. Jaffee, July 16, 2004 Home   Search   Forum   Terms NAACP Chairman Julian Bond claims his organization is “nonpartisan” while at the same time using vitriolic rhetoric to attack the Bush administration. Why would President Bush wish to speak before the NAACP after the way in which they’ve treated him? Some claim Bush should swallow his pride and speak before the group in the interest of “outreach.” I would argue that Bush has already engaged in more outreach than any other administration in U.S. history: 2001: President George W. Bush appoints: Condoleezza Rice, Assistant...

We should all e-mail Foxnews about the disgusting comments Julian Phillips made about Rush Limbaugh this morning! Julian said and is still saying... "You know I hate to kick somebody when they are down, but it looks as if Rush Limbaugh has been outed as a hypocrite. He is always railing against drug abuse and now he's turned into an abuser himself. I would imagine he will lose many listeners over this." then Mike Jerrick "Oh you can bet he's going to lose listeners. He had a full week to come clean with this and it appears..." Julian jumps in...

This just may be the largest gathering of democrat athiest (since democrats believe Govt. is supreme to God) in the First AME Church in a long time. Praying for God to re-enter that Church and cleanse it.

Dear Mr Sajak, I respectfully disagree with your decision to have Mr Roker on your show. I hope you will change your mind about this. Al is a shill for left wing politics everywhere. If you don't believe me, just look at a tape from the last time he was on The View. He advocates Affirmative Action and Hate Crime legislation and dares to call himself an objective journalist. Its not only this incedent that bothers me, but a laundry list of things that are happening on Foxnews during the weekend. First of all Pat Sajak has turned his show...

Just heard some comments on Foxnews this morning and I thought some of you all might be interested in the blatant communist tilt of Fox and Friends weekend edition Juliet:"Yes Apparently Russia is doing their military excercises. Sounds ok right? Well not really, Russia is planning for a Nuclear attack on the United States. Mike:"Yes apparently when we said we were going to pre-emptively strike any country that threatens us, Russia got a little nervous so they are practicing nuclear attacking our ships and stuff." Julian:"You know Russia has become superior in a lot of ways. We disabled most of...

I've e-mailed them once, and it doesn't seem to be getting their attention. Julian Phillips on the weekend Fox and Friends is blatantly shoving his liberal crap down the throats of the viewers. Not only that, but he keeps calling our President just "Bush" Here is an example of what he has been saying... "Bush needs to be held accountable if we don't find these weapons of mass destruction. I understand that they are hard to find, but thats the only reason Bush went in there in the first place." He said over and over virtually the same thing yesterday,...

I was watching Foxnews early this morning. They were using a Sky News reporter who was traveling with US Soldiers. This was during the firefight this morning at Umm Kasar. What started out as a report in the middle of a firefight turned into a running commentary by the Sky News reporter against the war. Fox kept the pictures the reporter was showing, but turned the volume down and recognized the commentary by the reporter. Bob Sellers said laughingly.... "Yeah...oh ok..what started out as a report has turned into a reporter running commentary and shooting his mouth off" Then they...
