I saw this poster on the wall of the cancer clinic today:

Yes, this cancer clinic:

And yes, this IS the same Benny Hinn who sent out a request...

There is something deeply moving about this weekend's news that Caroline Kennedy had endorsed Sen. Obama and that Sen. Edward Kennedy would be endorsing him later today.
After all these years and all the tragedy and all the scandal, the Kennedy's have found their heir and he is an...

Anne Rice has just posted a video on YouTube celebrating Hillary's New Hampshire win and suggesting a Clinton/Obama ticket. Ms. Rice says she is "pro-life", "a Democrat" and "for Hillary." Here it is:
This video isn't just the...

It now seems pretty clear that virtually all of the late polling on the Democratic side was wrong... very wrong. The last Rasmussen Report had Obama +7 over Clinton. CBS had him +7. USA Today had Obama +13 and CNN +10.
With more than 60% of...

It is called the Food Stamp Challenge. Begun by a bipartisan group of House members, the challenge is to live on an average food stamp budget -- just $3 a day -- for one week in order to raise visibility and understanding around the challenges that millions of low-income...

Mayor Giuliani's abortion talk gets more and more muddled. For starters there was his debate performance - where he was for and against and for and against abortion (passionately). Then, last week he gave a major speech saying he was absolutely and totally for abortion rights:
"I...

We are pretty freaking lucky when the person who said, "nappy-headed hos" on air can be the subject of so much attention. We are even luckier when people like Rev. Al Sharpton and Rev. Jesse Jackson can get so much much attention for attacking the man who said "nappy-headed hos."...

The public won't see that "anatomically correct sculpture" of a fully naked chocolate Jesus with arms stretched wide as if on a cross. That's a shame.
I am generally pretty laid back about such things - artists should be able to do whatever it is that artists want to...

John Edwards, former senator from North Carolina and John Kerry's former running mate, has his eyes on the White House. His is not a long shot bid. Though far more under the radar than his two more popular rivals, Sen. Barack Obama and Sen. Hillary Clinton,...

The Senate Homeland Security and Government Affairs Committee toured New Orleans on Monday to survey the damage, examine progress, and try and make things better for the still suffering people of that city. Sen. Barack Obama was highly critical of the Bush administration and so was New Orleans mayor...

...so says Dinesh D'Souza.
I conducted an interview with him for Beliefnet about his book, The Enemy at Home: The Cultural Left and Its Responsibility for 9/11. The most fascinating thing he said came at the end of something he was saying about the reason for his book. He said...

Today she made it official - Sen. Hillary Clinton has announced that she is forming a presidential exploratory committee and that "I'm in. And I'm in to win." It is among the least surprising political events in recent memory. It is still historic. She is the first woman with a...

I tuned in a couple of minutes late to watch my president talk about Iraq.
I saw him standing and wondered if I was watching an old news clip of an old speech. I wondered why he wasn't seated behind the great desk in the Oval Office?
It...

I got this in the mail this afternoon and wanted to pass it on to as many people as possible. I am aware that people who read the Huffington Post don't typically support the Family Research Council but they absolutely, positively need $3.5 million by the end of the...

There is a new article on the Focus on the Family website called, "Tempting Bitterness" by Gary Schneeburger, editor of something called Citizenlink. In a way it is nothing new - just an attack on me and a distortion of my book, Tempting Faith. It is...

So, a Muslim is coming to the United States House of Representatives and he wants to be sworn into office with his hand on a Koran and not on a Holy Bible. Some conservatives have decided this may well be the end of American civilization. One columnist writes, "He should...

Dear Dr. Dobson and Mr. Colson,
I note with some interest that you have continued to comment on my proposal for a temporary fast from politics. Unfortunately, your comments have fantastically misrepresented my position. Chuck, here is what you wrote in The New York Times:
