...Anointing Obama I hope you will delve deeper than your glossed-over fairy tale about Barack Obama's upbringing and take up his invitation to address the substantive issues presented in his biography [April 21]. The article neglects to mention that Obama's father had children by four women and that he abandoned each of them. Its odd statement that S. Ann Soetoro "decided not to follow" Obama's father back to Kenya neatly overlooks the fact that he was returning to Kenya (and his Kenyan wife and children) with an American woman whom he had met in Massachusetts after...

These food-price increases combined with soaring energy costs will slow if not stop economic growth in many parts of the world and will even undermine political stability...
...belief that in a time of trouble - as opposed to the peace and prosperity of the late 20th century - the low-information politics of the past could be tossed aside in favor of a high-minded, if deliberately vague, appeal to the nation's need to finally address some huge problems. But that assumption hit a wall in Pennsylvania. Specifically, it hit a wall at the debate staged by ABC News in Philadelphia - viewed by an audience of 10 million, including a disproportionate number of Pennsylvanians - that will go down in history for the relentless vulgarity of its questions, with...
