The blues was a gift so great that it is now almost the only reason many foreigners still like the USA. Foreigners love us for our jazz. They don’t hate us for our purported liberty and justice for all. They hate us for our arrogance. No matter how c

A Reuters photographer said Sheehan had been seated for less than a minute when a plainclothes Capitol Police officer took her by the arm, said, "You've got to leave," and rushed her from the gallery.
CBS News has done a nice job of providing complete coverage, if you really (?) want to see, hear, read Bush's speech, and analysis. [Hear that cash register ringing up in the background?]
THE US vowed today to avoid its past mistake of neglecting Afghanistan, during high-level US-Afghan talks on the eve of an international donors conference for the central Asian country. "We made the mistake once before of leaving (neglecting) A

So it was sort of a surprise when Bush, upon finding out about Khans proliferation of nuclear technology, let Pakistan off with a slap on the wrist. But it was all an act. In fact, it was actually a cover-up designed to shield Cheney because he
The kind of subpoena cited is for documents or records, not testimony, and require records to be turned over before trial so the defense team can review them. Libby's team said it expects a delay in the trial while news organizations fight the su

The Administration's response to my speech illustrates the need for a special counsel to review the NSA wiretapping program. The Attorney General is making a political defense of the President without even addressing the substantive legal questio
President Bush has never used his veto. Instead he used something called a "signing statement:" When Congress passes a bill the president doesn't like, he goes ahead and signs it, but along with the usual press release, he issues his ow
With help from the Pentagon's chief laughter instructor, families of National Guard members are learning to walk like a penguin, laugh like a lion and blurt "ha, ha, hee, hee and ho, ho." No joke.
"I understand people's concerns about government eavesdropping," Bush said in response to a question about the program during a citizens' forum in Louisville. "I share their concerns as well." Even so, he added, the progra
Rove was offered a plea deal in December and that Luskin had twice met with Fitzgerald during that time to discuss Rove's legal status. Rove turned down the plea deal, which would likely have required him to provide Fitzgerald with information ag

The FBI has 13 field offices across the country working on the case, with two dozen agents assigned to it full time and roughly the same number working part time. "We are going to chase down every lead," Chris Swecker, head of the FBI's
"What the current administration is scared of," said Sanders, is losing GOP control of either the House, the Senate or both. Because, if that happens, he predicted, "there will be hearings to ask some of the fundamental questions about
