Full Story Top Celebrate Thanksgiving the Ayn Rand way: Thank yourself Wed, 25 Nov 2009 01:00 am PST The Christian Science Monitor - Ah, Thanksgiving.

I Don't Think So Wed, 25 Nov 2009 10:44 am PST HuffingtonPost.com - Read Larry Ross's other articles on HuffingtonPost.com Full Story Top Obama's "Finish the Job" Talk Sets Stage for Afghan Troop Surge Tue, 24 Nov 2009 07:45 pm PST The Nation - The Nation -- President Obama plans to formally announce on December 1 his decision with regard to the request from some of his more ambitious generals for a massive troop surge in Afghanistan. Full Story Top How Unemployment Affects Midterm Elections Tue, 24 Nov 2009 10:00 pm PST RealClearPolitics.com - It’s become something of an article of faith within the lay punditry that high unemployment and a weak recovery will seriously weigh down the Democrats’ performance in the 2010 midterm elections.

Full Story Top Still Doing God's Work on Wall Street Thu, 26 Nov 2009 12:00 am PST Robert Scheer - Jail, anyone? Perhaps that's too harsh, and at any rate premature, but is anyone ever going to be held accountable for the behind-the-scenes sweetheart deals that passed tens of billions of taxpayer dollars through the AIG shell game to the very banks that caused the financial meltdown? Full Story Top Thanksgiving Flu Thu, 26 Nov 2009 12:00 am PST Linda Chavez - There's nothing to get you into the mood for a Thanksgiving gathering like a little H1N1 in the air. Full Story Top Understanding Our Hollow "Centrists" Thu, 26 Nov 2009 12:00 am PST Joe Conason - The puzzling thing about politicians of either party who claim to be "centrist" or "moderate" is how much they sometimes sound like party-line right-wing Republicans.

Full Story Top THE LATE, GREAT STATE OF CALIFORNIA Wed, 25 Nov 2009 08:39 pm PST Richard Reeves - LOS ANGELES -- California, contrary to popular opinion, is not broke.

I started early this year, at Bed Bath and Beyond. Mind you, I love the store — two shiny new floors of beautiful things that you don't have to try on.
