The real experience Hillary Clinton gained during her years in the White House has finally been revealed: she learned, just like her husband, how to manipulate words to cover up her lies.

Just as Bill used "It depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is" in...

You can't effectively govern the people in public if you can't effectively govern yourself in private. Period. End of story. How can we allow you to make decisions that affect the private lives of others when you can't even control your own?

Whether you're what's-his-name in that airport toilet, or...

My brother Rahm Emanuel is a superdelegate. I love my brother, and I trust my brother. But I gave up letting my brother dictate my life since he determined whether he got the top or bottom bunk in our bedroom back in Chicago.

So, as much as I love and...

Hillary Clinton keeps talking about her 35 years of experience. "I am offering 35 years of experience making change," she said in New Hampshire. "I'm not just running on a promise of change, I'm running on 35 years of change." And she repeatedly mentioned the 35 years again in...

Over the last seven years, it's often been hard to be filled with national pride. It required a lengthy explanation: "I love my country, but hate what my government is doing. I'm proud to be an American, but not proud of things happening in the name of America."

Well, I...

On the eve of Iowa, here's a thought for helping choose our next president. A simple tie-breaker for those still on the fence. Let's pick someone who can handle a pop quiz where you have to fill in the blanks.

The current occupant of the Oval Office can't even handle...

Dear Peter, Les, Barry, Bob, and your AMPTP cohorts,

We all see the strategy you guys have been playing: put the rollback of residuals on the table, then take them off and act like this is some great,...

My kids are making a killing on the writers' strike. Y'see, I have a deal with them where I have to pay them five dollars any time I slip up and curse in front of them. They are...

I'm about to get myself in a lot of trouble. So be it... Listening to both sides in the looming writers' strike, it's clear to me that politics is about to trump sound economics. Neither the Writers Guild nor the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers is looking at...

Dear Mr. President,

I was reading the Times of London this morning while making my way to the Cannes Film Festival to see Sicko, my client Michael Moore's movie about the American health care system. You know, the one our government is "investigating" (in other words, trying to stop) by...

Chris Albrecht is my friend, and I'm appalled at the way he has been treated by the press. He is an alcoholic who fell off the wagon and made a terrible mistake. No one is arguing that. What happened outside the MGM Grand is inexcusable -- and Chris has expressed...

I have been trying for some time to find a good way to teach my sons that lying is not the right thing to do. At long last, I have found the perfect example: Prosecutorgate. I never thought I'd find myself saying this, but here goes: Thank you, Alberto Gonzales...

So they killed Captain America. On paper he was offed by a sniper's bullet. But in reality it was the toxic state of Bush and Cheney's America. It's hard to be a star-spangled Super Soldier these days. Given the lip-service-only support this administration gives our troops, the patriotic hero would...

My prediction about Dick Cheney is one step closer to coming true. My clock gives it three weeks before his resignation letter lands on Bush's desk. What does your clock say?

I have three predictions to make this morning: 1) John McCain will not be the Republican Party's nominee. 2) Hillary Clinton will not be the Democratic Party's nominee. 3) Before the end of Bush's term, Condoleezza Rice will be Vice-President.

I love my brother.

I wish Mel Gibson well in dealing with his alcoholism, but alcoholism does not excuse racism and anti-Semitism. It is one thing when marginal figures with no credibility make anti-Semitic statements. It is a completely different thing when a figure of Mel Gibson's stature does so. Even when he sobers...

I was filling up my Prius with gas today ($25 -- I wonder how much it takes SUV drivers to fill up their cars?) and I got to thinking about what George Bush's legacy will be. Mind you, I wasn't coming at this from the perspective of someone who didn't...

I'm confused. President Bush thinks the New York Times keeping the public informed is "making it harder to win this war on terror" and Dick Cheney says the Times has "made the job of defending against further terrorist attacks more difficult."

So what exactly does the phrase "war on terror"...

I'm confused. Why isn't more attention being paid to the Vice President's 2001 secret energy task force? Gas prices are going though the roof, oil is heading for $100 a barrel, and oil companies are making a mint. Shouldn't people be making a stink to find out what happened behind...
