DREAM Act and Farmwork at Center of Student Labor Week of Action

Last Monday at Duke University, Rod Palmquist drew an intricate diagram on a white board showing "students" on one side and "workers" on the other. "Students and workers are at both ends of the labor process. Take for instance the sport garments that are sold at universities. Though it is the administrators who sign contracts with the big companies it is ultimately the students who have the power to ask their administrators what they want," said Palmquist, national coordinator of United Students Against Sweatshops (USAS). "It is fundamental that students and employees maintain communication ...

Scenes from the Tea Party: A Reporter's Notebook in Nashville

Scenes from the Tea Party: A Reporter's Notebook in Nashville

The Birther Movement Lives Joseph Farah, editor of the conservative Website WorldNetDaily, opened his speech at the Tea Party convention in Nashville with jokes and questions about President Barack Obama's U.S. citizenship. To loud approval from the crowd, Farah said his dream is that if Obama seeks re-election in 2012, he won't be able to go to any city in America without seeing signs that ask, "Where's the birth certificate?" The fact that the rest of the media has declared the issue settled is proof, he said, that it's not. Where Are the Young? A funny thing about the break-out session ...

Tom Tancredo Event at UNC Shut Down

By  Matt Lewis - Politics Daily
Tom Tancredo Event at UNC Shut Down

Former Congressman (and GOP presidential candidate) Tom Tancredo isn't my favorite politician. But I do believe in his right to speak. Unfortunately, several radical student protesters at UNC don't agree. For those who maintain the very American value of tolerance and respect for diverse opinions -- including the expression of unpopular political opinions -- this video from today should be especially troubling. (Be warned, there is some vulgar language) ... ...

Sarah Palin: Obama's 'Best Fundraiser and Organizer'

It's about time someone said something nice about Sarah Palin! During the campaign, it seemed like every time we opened our Washington Times or World Net Daily, we were smacked in the face with reports of Barack Obama and thirteen members of Congress calling her a pig or some McCain sourpuss complaining that she had all the foreign policy expertise of Miss South Carolina.Well it's time for some good news, and it comes from an unlikely source: Barack Obama's campaign manager David Plouffe. It turns out that he really appreciated Palin's contributions... "Vice presidential picks rarely but ...

Why Kennedy's Out: Was It the Illegal Housekeeper or the Part About Being Totally Unqualified?

We know this much: Caroline Kennedy will not be the next Senator from New York despite a highly publicized campaign and a connections to a famous family. (In case you've been living under a rock, her cousin was once Lt. Governor of Maryland.)Now the question is why. The New York Times has a theory, and it's a familiar one...Problems involving taxes and a household employee surfaced during the vetting of Caroline Kennedy and derailed her candidacy for the Senate, a person close to Gov. David A. Paterson said on Thursday, in an account at odds with Ms. Kennedy's own description of her reasons ...

'The New Gang of 14'

By  Christopher Weber - Politics Daily
'The New Gang of 14'

Earlier I told you about certain Democratic members of Congress who are staying as far away from Barack Obama as possible this election season. Well on the other side of the aisle there are a number of Republicans who won't be getting behind John McCain's candidacy. They've been dubbed the "new gang of 14," a reference to the group of lawmakers, including McCain, who broke with conservatives on President Bush's judicial nominations. Not surprisingly, most of them lean sharply right and aren't thrilled with McCain's stances on issues like campaign finance reform, immigration, taxes, etc. One ...

Rep. Tancredo Blasts Pope on Immigration

Not too many people are unaware of Rep. Tom Tancredo's stance on illegal immigration. The Colorado Republican was a presidential contender early in the 2008 race, with the touchy subject being his main platform. It's his shtick, so to speak.But now he's taking on someone considered by many to be of a higher authority: The Pope.Tancredo isn't happy with reports that Pope Benedict XVI said the United States must do "everything possible to fight ... all forms of violence so that immigrants may lead dignified lives." He also accused Pope Benedict XVI of encouraging amnesty for illegal immigrants ...
