2002 Karachi; Pakistan; 2004 Uzbekistan; 2004 Saudi Arabia; 2006 Syria; 2007 Athens; 2008 Serbia; 2008 Yemen

What do these numbers and countries mean? No, it's not a puzzle but given the current nature of our political discourse, the story behind it will no doubt puzzle you.

Listed above are the...

Okay, here's another example of just how dumb our politics can be in this country.

I awoke today with stories abounding about tea party Senator (from Texas) Ted Cruz's potential run for President of the United States in 2016. Everything I saw, heard and read seemed to promote the fact...

...let the liberal media and "Clintonistas" keep commanding the airwaves, newspapers and Internet 24/7 for the next two years with "Hillary is a shoo-in" 2016 talk. That'll do it!

As a woman and left-leaning voter, let me first say that I really like Hillary Clinton and I, too, hope that...

Okay Progressives, here's a riddle for you: a large majority of the American people are polled supporting President Obama on a particular issue but some in his own party do not, should he proceed with his current policy on that issue or bend to political and media pressure and abandon...

There is a meme quickly developing in the media chastising President Obama for his so-called failure to "sit down" or "meet" or "cooperate" with Republicans in Congress during these fiscal cliff negotiations.

Joe Scarborough of MSNBC's Morning Joe went on another tirade this morning about how President Obama "can't seem...

OK, this is what I want to know. Did everyone in the free world all of a sudden forget that it was not the Obama administration but the protestors on the ground in Libya who actually first stated that the reason they were protesting was because of the anti-Islam video,...

Okay, so let me get this straight. When President Obama appears calm and laid back in a debate, he's labeled as "listless" and "ineffectual" but when Mitt Romney appears calm and laid back in a debate, he's labeled as being "conservative" and "playing it safe." And when President Obama goes...

It's always talked about but rarely examined, Republican reaction to a crisis and monumental disappointment versus Democratic reaction to the same. The difference was never on such wide-eyed display as in the past 2-3 weeks following the first two debates between the presidential contenders.

According to numerous polls, most...

Okay, I'm as cautious as the next person and I admit that when I first heard that President Obama was not meeting with any world leaders at the United Nations, it gave me pause as to what the strategic thinking here might be. But for the umpteenth morning I awoke...

In watching some of the cable news stations this weekend prior to the start of the Republican National Convention, I have seen some media outlets noting the increasing theme of the Mitt Romney/Paul Ryan presidential ticket touting themselves as... "America's Comeback Team." Really? Where are they coming back from?

Okay,...

Over the weekend, the Obama campaign put out a pretty clever campaign video of Mitt Romney singing "America the Beautiful" while displaying various news headlines of Romney/Bain outsourcing claims. I guess because the spot received such notice, now the Romney campaign has once again followed the Obama campaign's lead and...

A few months ago, I stayed home from work for two days straight with crippling abdominal pains. My first thought was maybe extreme menstrual cramps but I soon realized that this was something else. Never had I had cramps and pains so bad that it kept me from going to...

Mitt Romney is running for president of the United States of America and in less than six months, citizens of this country will go to the polls to vote for whom they think has the best policies and who would do a better job of running this country. But there...

Okay, we know it's political silly season but sorry I still don't see the reason for the outrage! When there is an addition to the number of jobs added and a subtraction to the unemployment number... how is that a bad thing! And by the way for those not clued...

Are you kidding me? Seriously, are you kidding me? Actual, legitimate media pundits and political professionals are really asking if President Obama should tout the killing of Osama bin Laden during his re-election campaign? Really... seriously???

I honestly don't know where to start. These are some of...

Okay, here we go again! This is really getting sad. I am so sick and tired of enduring the stupidity of these constant suggestions that President Obama is not entitled to any and every benefit, advantage and perk of the office of the President of the United States that every...

My mother finally got her chance to be a stay-at-home mom... at age 65. As a single Mother with 5 kids she didn't have a 'choice' of staying home and raising her kids... she HAD to work to put food on our table, clothes on our backs and a roof...

One of my favorite movies of all time is the hit movie Jerry Maguire starring Tom Cruise and Academy Award winner, Cuba Gooding Jr. And in a movie that was chock full of great lines (i.e., "Show me the money!"), one of my favorite lines in one of my favorite...

Yes, naysayers, President Obama and the Democrats can win by losing the Supreme Court case on the Affordable Health Act. How?

#1 - Losing this case will take away the GOP's primary talking point in their campaign against President Obama... REPEALING 'OBAMACARE'! Where will Mitt Romney and Rick Santorum go...
