Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed legislation Monday requiring Sunshine State students to learn about the “Victims of Communism” in high school. Beginning in the 2023-2024 academic year, high school students enrolled in US government courses will get at least 45 minutes of instruction each November 7 describing how “victims suffered under these regimes through poverty, starvation, migration, systemic lethal violence, and suppression of speech.” DeSantis inked the law at the Freedom Tower in Miami, where 650,000 Cubans were processed after fleeing their homeland upon Fidel Castro’s seizure of power in 1959.

FRiends, sorry for the Vanity but at this late stage I have little else. Today's election will impact upon far more than the good people of the United States. For starters, a 'Rat majority in the Senate will all but destroy any chance of appointing justices to SCOTUS who will overturn Roe v.Wade. That will be a death sentence to millions more American babies. It will also send a message to the rest of the world that the people of the greatest power on earth still regard wholesale slaughter of innocent children as just fine with them. The wave effect...

Democrat Harold Ford Jr. looked for votes in his opponent's hometown Monday while Republican Bob Corker planned to visit every major Tennessee city on the last full day before the election. Ford started his day meeting with Chattanooga public works employees in the city where his opponent was mayor until last year. He vowed to improve health care for working people, and then declared: "Let's go beat this little guy!" - a reference to Corker's height, which Corker says is 5-feet-6 1/2 inches. Corker campaigned with Sens. John McCain of Arizona, Saxby Chambliss of Georgia and Bill Frist and Lamar...

Only 24 hours to go before you make a decision which is really a matter of life and death. It could not be more serious my friends. A vote for Liberals and Democrats is a vote for terrorists and their methods. A vote that will bring closer the day that they win, and that is a day no-one wants to wake up to. Lets look at the consequences. If you want no border security and illegals getting the same rights as you: vote Democrat. If you want child molesters released into your neighbourhood without you knowing about it: vote Democrat....

BALTIMORE -- Maryland Gov. Robert L. Ehrlich Jr. received the endorsement yesterday of a half-dozen black ministers who could sway Democratic voters in the battlegrounds of Prince George's County and Baltimore to cross party lines in the election Tuesday. Mr. Ehrlich, a Republican, stood on a street corner in South Baltimore surrounded by the ministers and touted his record of reaching out to minorities and implementing policies for urban voters, including programs for drug treatment instead of prison time. "This is an agenda for people regardless of color," he said. "This is white and black and Hispanic and Republican and...

On Nov. 7, voters will choose a new Congress, governors in 36 states and decide whether to approve various ballot initiatives. Here is a state-by-state look: Alabama: Republican Gov.

Republicans expect to lose House seat vacated by retiring Rep. Jim Kolbe, but hope Rep. J.D. Hayworth...

"Sen. John Kerry then told the [Pasadena City College] students that if they were able to navigate the education system, they could get comfortable jobs ‹ 'If you don't, you get stuck in Iraq,' he said to a mixture of laughter and gasps." ‹ Pasadena Star News, Oct. 31 Most election years, I'm a W.C. Fields American: I never vote for anyone, I always vote against. And if ever there was an election that cried out for Freddy Krueger-esque political bloodletting, it's this one. So until today my plan was to walk into the nearest voting booth, look for an...

Democrats across the nation are succeeding in splitting the conservative Catholic vote, which could deprive Republicans of a vital voting bloc heading into Election Day. George Marlin, an experienced author and election analyst, says reliably Republican voters are now being enticed to jump parties because of strong feelings on key social issues such as abortion. In an exclusive interview with NewsMax.com, Marlin said these so-called "Reagan Democrats" have been voting Republican in recent years, but are now being peeled away by successful Democratic Party efforts to win key races. "In races around the country the Democratic Party has effectively split...

BILLINGS, Mont. -- President Bush yesterday kicked off the last swing of his final political campaign, a five-day blitz in 10 states considered pivotal in Tuesday's congressional midterm elections. Bent on whipping up the Republican base, the president, visiting only states he won in 2004, is putting his power into play -- showing he is neither abandoning close races nor giving up on embattled candidates. "These are all races that are close," a senior administration official said aboard Air Force One. "This is about Republican turnout, and these are all close races where he can turn up the vote." The...

NORTH PROVIDENCE, R.I. -- There's only one question Rep. Patrick Kennedy really answers this campaign. It came up at an ice cream social. It's raised on the street. He even hears it in bedrock Democratic neighborhoods. "How are you feeling?" asked a white-haired woman at a high-rise for the elderly. "I've never felt better," he said. "One day at a time." It's an answer some people - let alone politicians under intense media scrutiny - couldn't give after the year he's had: checking himself into a rehabilitation center, crashing his car at 3 a.m. into a security barrier outside the...

If the latest Zogby poll is accurate, the Democrats are poised to take control of the House of Representatives. If that were to happen, Nancy Pelosi would likely become Speaker. Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich is warning that a Democratic victory at the polls on November 7 will turn over the House to "the San Francisco values of would-be Speaker Nancy Pelosi." Just how dangerous, then, is the House Minority Leader from California to those who hold to traditional conservative values? Pelosi is one of the most liberal members of the House, receiving a 95 percent "liberal quotient" from the...

California State November Ballot Propositions General Election - November 7, 2006 Remember Bonds to a Politician are like DRUGS to an Addict, Vote for one and they will put a bigger one up next time. Another reason bonds are bad is that they all have a clause that allows the money to be spent on ANY cause the elected officials want to spend them on. That is why School Bonds are so frequent and so often, It is just a marketing ploy. Recommendations of California Ballot Propositions

O X I D A Y 28 OCTOBER, 1940 LEST WE FORGET THE 28th OF OCTOBER, 1940! THE FIRST ALLIED VICTORY IN WWII The magnificent Greek holiday Oxi Day is celebrated every year in Greece on October 28th and mostly remembered for General Ioannis Metaxas' strong reply of 'OXI' (no) to Mussolini's request to allow Italian troops to come into Greece at the beginning of WWII. The result of this stern message was powerful, and in the end, helped to maintain Greece's course of neutrality for generations to come. Nevertheless, the Italians did invade Greece, but were subsequently driven back...

Even before U.S. Rep. Mark Foley's cybersex scandal, Republicans fighting to keep control of Congress were struggling to hold on to "values voters" who usually are energized by issues like gay marriage and abortion. While such issues motivated the Republicans' social-conservative base in the past, they are overshadowed in this year's congressional election campaign by concerns about the Iraq war, the economy and national security, according to opinion polls and political strategists. "Poverty, the wealth gap, health care - people can't afford Medicare. Something's got to be done about that," Sue Harrell, a school teacher in Monroe City, Indiana, said...
