Chances are that your current email password is useless (and even dangerous to your financial health). I'm not just talking about those folks who use "password1" (and lots of you still do). Hackers and cyber-thieves can break any password if they have the time and inclination to do...

The U.S. Army's Afghan Koran burning, and the violent Islamic reaction that followed, has finally given media prominence to one simple question: why are we still there?

The U.S. government has given all kinds of reasons we can't leave now, and to be honest, they sound remarkably similar to...

Barack Obama should take Newt Gingrich out for a beer. Heck, maybe even dinner. Newt is unleashing a scorched-earth campaign on Mitt Romney with such ferocity that Obama's re-election campaign could well be on its the way to victory before the Republican Convention even takes place.

With Washington DC politics in 2011 resembling a non-stop food fight, you may be disgusted enough to want to stay home on Election Day in 2012. I'd like to suggest a possibly more satisfying option: going to the polls and voting for nobody.

First, the Supreme Court has agreed to review...

Groucho Marx originated the quote "Who do you believe, me or your lying eyes?" In last night's NBC interview, Jerry Sandusky took the Penn State pedophile scandal from the disgusting into the surreal when he made the same assertion as Groucho Marx. He was allegedly seen sodomizing a 10-year-old boy...

It's amazing how often life parodies the French policeman in the film Casablanca being shocked, shocked(!) that gambling was going on at Rick's cafe. The latest parody, now playing out at Penn State, is especially noteworthy.

Everyone is, well, shocked that a former coach was molesting young boys under...
