‘Warmin’ Church’ in Decline After Three-Year Run

March 13th, 2010 · 2 Comments

Three years after I broke news about “The Warmin’ Church” and the fact that members of the church founded by former Vice President Al Gore refer to themselves as the “Hotter Days Saints,” church attendance has dwindled.

Brown Win Turns Oval Office Smiles Upside-Down

January 21st, 2010 · 1 Comment

Republican Scott Brown’s stunning defeat of Democrat Martha Coakley Tuesday has likely caused some of the smiles captured in one Pete Souza photo (right) featured in the White House’s  “The First Year” gallery to turn upside-down. Below is the caption that accompanies the photo: Dec. 24, 2009 “It was Christmas Eve. The Senate had voted [...]

Phillip Berg Files Motion to Halt Electoral Process

December 3rd, 2008 · 2 Comments

October 2nd, 2008 · 2 Comments

Given the choice between having Sarah Palin or Joe Biden make the decision about a little-publicized proposal for new construction in the nation’s 49th state, I’d choose the Alaska governor every time.  Why?  Because I’m convinced her foreign policy instincts are better than the six-term senator from Delaware.
