Al Sharpton was revealed in federal court testimony last week to have pitched a TV pilot in Hollywood starring himself called Judge Sharpton that was bankrolled by a Brooklyn cocaine dealer. No one's judging him out here. The networks don't take checks.
President Obama released a list of hits he's ordered on al-Qaeda leaders Tuesday. He wants it known he ordered the assassinations. As soon as he expressed his support for gay marriage you knew he would do something way over the top to prove that he's straight.
U.S. drone aircraft killed al-Qaeda's number-two man with a missile strike Friday. It's the sixth number-two al-Qaeda leader we've killed with drone attacks. Either the job has a high turnover rate or the White House can't be bothered to re-write the press release.
President Obama told Jewish conservative leaders on Tuesday he knows more about Israel than any other past president. His reverence for Israel is genuine. The last time he was in Jerusalem he placed a rolled up prayer in the Wailing That It's Bush's Fault Wall.
President Obama angered Poles by referring to Nazi death camps in Poland as Polish death camps. The Poles are his party's most reliable voters. No one thought it was possible for a Democrat to lose Chicago but Obama's determined to be the first in everything.
The Census Bureau said Wednesday a million and a half people have left the state of New York during the last four years. They said most have moved to Florida, Georgia and South Carolina. They're attracted by warm weather, lower taxes and the hope of secession.
