2009-03-10 01:28:00 Apparently, the Republican Party of the United States has ended up in such a vacuum of leadership that the ?undeclared? (but apparently very much acknowledged) chief of the GOP has become the quasi-comedic radical radio-host Rush Limbaugh. In one of his speeches on national radio, Limbaugh declared the following jaw-dropping statement: If I wanted Obama to ... More About: Politics , Economy , History
Genuine Talent or Political Correctness?
2009-02-25 11:55:00 The 2009 Academy Awards event this Sunday was in many ways impregnated by a sense of self-controlling polite modesty (with the contenders half-expecting Slumdog Millionaire to win all of the awards), with winches of indisputable grief (the whole audience was left in mourning tears when the late Heath Ledger was awarded the Oscar for his ...
