Many of us have a hard time imagining why someone as obviously unqualified as Sarah Palin would even be considered as a possible nominee for President but recent polling has shown that she actually appears to have a pretty good shot at winning the 2012 Republican nomination. 35% of Republicans say they would be “very [...]

The following message is from Kathleen Sebelius, Secretary of Health and Human Services, Janet Napolitano, Secretary of Homeland Security, and Arne Duncan, Secretary of Education. Fellow Americans, This spring we were confronted with an outbreak of a troubling flu virus called 2009-H1N1. As the fall flu season approaches, it is critical that we reinvigorate our [...]

1. Real Clear Politics – Sarah Palin is unfit for office. Consider this scary thought: Sarah Palin in the White House! 2. Mother Jones – Health Care In The United States Is Terrible.
