South Carolina's Governor Mark Sanford announced two great epiphanies today: why he should not resign (gosh, we thought he was going to) and why his fellow South Carolina Republicans would not cooperate with him the last few years (no, it's not why you think).

The Associated Press' Mike Glover writes, "It's been six months since voters handed Barack Obama the White House, and in the minds of a lot of Iowa activists that means only one thing: It's time to start the campaign again. 2012 already? Yes, 2 1/2 years before Iowans gather...

Listen up all you free marketeers, billions of dollars of private investment dollars have been pouring into the economy here at home and around the world to build a new clean energy economy. After eight years of losing competitive economic ground to Europe and...

It has just gotten awful for the Republicans. Tear-shedding gut-wrenching heart-breaking sad.

The party of tough talk and unflappable belief in their version of America -- the party willing to send others' kids to war to prove how tough they are -- has...

Fox News correspondent Jonathan Hunt today candidly gave voice to what Republican leaders have privately been saying for the last week -- the controversy over the briefings Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi received from the CIA several years ago is an orchestrated & deliberate distraction from the...

Last week I was invited to join Sean Hannity again on his primetime show on Fox News. His viewers loved it, sending me several warm and fuzzy emails shortly after advocating for President Obama and change that at least some of us believe in...

I saw you on Hannity...

This week, the House Republican's #2 leader, Minority Whip Eric Cantor (Virginia) said he wants to start a national "listening tour" because he still is not sure what the Republican Party stands for.

What's he gonna find out? That only about 25% of Americans even want to say...

How Bush Ruined the Free Market
(or Why Your Cousin on Wall Street Can't Bet With Your Money Anymore)

Do you realize it took George Bush longer to "win" his war against a small, third world nation once led by a third-rate dictator than it took us the U.S....

Rush Limbaugh, the unquestioned leader of the otherwise voiceless Republican Party, today had a rant today that was even more virulent and verbally violent than usual. Worse than his fervent desire that Obama fail and nuttier than his claim that our nation is now run by socialists who hate...

Welcome back, Rush! After a week away, possibly at the request of fearful Republicans, Rush Limbaugh's beautiful opening monologue on Monday cites Gallup polling information showing him growing in popularity among Republicans, making him (according to Himself) the most popular conservative in the nation.

Sixty percent of...

Here's another curious fact as the Republicans reject the American people's call for an end to gridlock partisanship. No House Republicans voted for Bill Clinton's 1993 economic stimulus package just like every single one of them rejected President Obama's this past week.

It seems those guys just want...

Here's a curious fact: President Obama's and the Democratic Congress' tax cuts in their first three weeks are larger than Bush's combined tax cuts in his first three years.

Just as Rush Limbaugh ascends as the top leader of the Republican Party, it appears he has disappeared. Or is that 'been disappeared' by a frightened GOP that has been rejected by the American people and badly outflanked by the Obama political allies? There has been no El...

Why won't anyone (anyone!) among our nation's leaders call this government bailout business what it is -- corporate socialism?

I could never imagine that the ultimate free marketeers have begged and pleaded for the big, bad, slow, inefficient, socialist government to take over major pillars of the free market economy...

There has been such a hue and cry about the superdelegates subverting the democratic process. There are claims that these party leaders and elected officials are beholden to the Clintons. I argued virtually with Ari Emanuel a couple of days ago (the brother of a superdelegate as...

My father Don Fowler is a superdelegate. I love my father, and I trust my father. And I gave up letting my father dictate my life since he determined how late I got to stay up at night.

So, as much as I love and respect him, I don't...

A woman walks into a curio shop in San Francisco. Looking around at the exotica, she notices a very life-like, life-sized bronze statue of a rat. It has no price tag, but is so striking she decides she must have it. She takes it to the owner:
