October 29, 2009 Oscar E. Dillon, PhD 508 North 4th Avenue Hopewell, VA 23860-2604 Good Morning: I question a lot of the rhetoric coming from the US Congress. For instance: Why does the ability to purchase health insurance have to come from a new health care bill? For years the [...]

October 31, 2009 by John Boehner Time after time, Republicans have reached out to President Obama and congressional Democrats to work together on common-sense solutions to lower health care costs for families and small businesses. President Obama promised the American people a bipartisan process. Unfortunately, Democrats have chosen a partisan, go-it-alone approach. It’s yet [...]
Oct 30, 2009 By Matthew Lee Frustrated by Iran’s continued defiance of demands to come clean on its nuclear program, the Obama administration is leaning toward imposing new sanctions, even if it must act alone. Administration officials acknowledged growing concern that there may not be international consensus to expand the existing U.N. sanctions, despite Tehran’s [...]

No one is, because no one has any faith in these numbers. Waves of money are sloshing through the system, creating a false rising tide that [...]

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi promises to ram it through quickly, exhibiting a disdain for her [...]
By SVETLANA KUNINPosted 10/30/2009 09:15 PM ET USSR, 1959: I am a “young pioneer” in school. History classes remind us that there is a higher authority than their parents and teachers: the leaders of the Communist Party. The story of young pioneer Pavlik Morozov is required reading. Pavlik reported his father to the secret police [...]
Posted 10/30/2009 07:45 PM ET Iran Nukes: The mullahs ruling Islamofascist Iran are having a fine laugh at the easily beguiled infidels running U.S. foreign policy. First they agree to a nuclear “diplomatic breakthrough.” Then they say no. The week before last, when Iran’s negotiators agreed to send most of its enriched uranium out of [...]
