The network CEO received $36.8 million last year, including an $18.5-million cash bonus.
It’s always easy to gripe about the boss, and seemingly easier to pass off the concerns of the common man when the real wealth is on the table. I’ve argued for a long time that we shouldn’t have the disgusting 300 to [...]
This format seems somewhat awkward, especially for Democrats. It is a positive and welcome change, but an odd thing nonetheless. You get the sense that the two sides are coming together for a more effective debate on the real issues that face us all. The location is Messiah College in Grantham, PA.

If we have American Idol voting everyone can participate in, pay $1 for each vote, an actually trust means that we can at least attempt some form of electronic voting. If it works, start doing a national primary, a few months of campaigns and we pick the president. Hell, we should even [...]
A Texas sergeant and his son recently found themselves separated not only by an eight-hour time difference, several bodies of water, hundreds of miles and a war, but by a high school official who suspended the boy for answering his dad’s call during class.
This is a shame. If I were teaching at that [...]
In three parts, sorry:
I had to post these, one of the best 30-minute guides to one of the greatest wastes of money and resources (human and capital) our country has seen in its 221 year history. It needs to change. It will change in our lifetime, it’s a matter of youth growing up [...]

I just had to post this. We have this mountain [...]

US national intelligence chief Mike McConnell says it would definitely be torture if HE were subjected to it.

I love Tina Fey, and I loved this monologue. I disagree, but if somehow I had to stare at a ballot that said McCain or Clinton, I’d pick Clinton. I just like Obama more. He enforces more of the positive, the same way these clips do.
Then there was this response, equally hilarious. [...]
No matter where you stand, this is another actually important piece of the election coverage. There is spin aplenty in the mainstream media, but direct conversations, debates, interviews and speeches are the best impressions we have besides campaigns own websites. Aside from the ‘A More Perfect Union’ speech in Philadelphia after the Reverend [...]
