We&#8217;ll have to watch for more news and analysis on this topic but, I had to read it twice. The president on Fox? I don&#8217;t believe it! No, seriously, the AP reports that Obama told Fox News during an interview that the nation could face a double dip recession if it overspends and, [...]]]></description>

South Dakota’s Sen. John Thune introduced a bill Tuesday that would prohibit Treasury Secretary Tim Geithner from extending the Trouble Asset Relief Program after it expires on Dec. 31.
Said Thune: “Congress created TARP to help relieve the credit crisis that threatened our economy last year, but instead of using the program for its [...]]]></description>

These days, photos lie a lot.
If you believe the pictures you see on the Internet without a serious reality check, you&#8217;re going to get fooled a lot.
With PhotoShop and its like, it&#8217;s easy for computer-smart manipulators to fool the gullible.
It&#8217;s not like the good old days, when photos never lied, right?
Well&#8230;
The fuss over [...]]]></description>

You gotta like those guys, Gingrich and Sharpton.
At least when it comes to education.
I&#8217;d think anybody could set aside their personal dislike for either Newt Gingrich or Al Sharpton long enough to admire their energetic spirit of cooperation on education reform.
And maybe learn from it?
The former House speaker and the outspoken civil-rights leader [...]]]></description>

First, I&#8217;m a David Brooks fan.
It isn&#8217;t just his smooth writing style that I admire. His consistent call for a more reasoned brand of  Republicanism should be heeded by the party, if it wants a more meaningful future.
In looking toward that future, Brooks wrote about John Thune this week, describing compelling qualities in the [...]]]></description>

Is Fox News &#8220;fixing&#8221; the news? Are they really fair and balanced or is their news just a shadow of the truth more interested in preserving the Conservative party than informing the American public?
Don&#8217;t know. You be the judge &#8230;  starting with this bit uncovered by The Daily Show&#8217;s John Stewart.
In the meantime, [...]]]></description>
