It’s STILL the economy, and stupid decisions by sixty years of politicians are coming home to roost. California is in economic collapse, and it isn’t pretty. The only way to correct the state of affairs will be painful, and cost everyone some grief, and plenty of cold cash. Economic ...

Ever since Major Nidal Malik Hasan killed over a dozen people two weeks ago, a lot of people have spent time investigating what prior evidence existed that would have pointed to Hasan’s status as a radical. Some of it, like the revelation of an FBI investigation into some postings he ...

With the news Monday that M. Jodi Rell, the Governor of Connecticut, will not run for re-election, it seems like the next year of politics in my state will be one to watch. Rell is a Republican who took over as Governor after her predecessor, John Rowland, stepped down in the midst of a ...

Today I got into a debate about abortion at Twitter with two fellow Tweepers. In both cases, my opponents were strongly pro-life, while I can see both the pro-life and the pro-choice side of things.
And that’s pretty much where the similarities between both sparring partners end. The ...

Governor Sarah Palin announced her book tour on her FaceBook page yesterday. It was an announcement many of her supporters had eagerly awaited. Perhaps more important to the newsjunkies among us, however, is the fact that she has also created a new Twitter account. SarahPalinUSA .

As I have predicted, the declining social stigma regarding homosexuality in society is being mirrored in the military. A new RAND study shows that support for the “don’t ask, don’t tell” policy that bars openly gay people from serving in the military is eroding. Coming ...

The story of the day is one of madness, for what other word can describe the actions of a man who guns down dozens of innocent people in a purposeless act of rebellion? Major Nidal Malik Hasan killed at least 12 of his fellow soldiers today at Fort Hood and no one really knows why.
