Senate Democrats tried to ram through a contentious spending bill Tuesday. The argument is over domestic spending. It's certainly no problem getting a defense bill through the United States Senate when we are fighting an enemy that stones adulterers. ![]()
Los Angeles celebrity chef Juan Carlos Cruz was sentenced to nine years in prison this week for offering to hire two homeless men to break into his condo and murder his wife. That's gratitude for you. You offer a man a job in this economy and he turns you in. ![]()
WikiLeaks' Julian Assange's mother said Tuesday he hasn't been on a computer for a week while he's been in jail. It may not get any easier for him when he gets out.
