Six Decades Later, FBI's Ten Most Wanted List Still Tough to Crack
By Allan Lengel - AOL NewsWASHINGTON -- In the film "Take the Money and Run," Woody Allen played a bumbling, publicity-starved petty criminal named Virgil Starkwell. "You know he never made the Ten Most Wanted list," Starkwell's wife, Louise, lamented in the 1969 comedy. "It's very unfair voting. It's who you know." As Allen's fictitious character learned, getting on the FBI's Ten Most Wanted Fugitives list is no easy feat. Just being a vicious criminal or a menace to society isn't always enough. For one, there has to be an opening. And then there's the selection process: A committee at FBI headquarters reviews ...
Top Ten Barack Obama/Joe Biden Gaffes

Just dip your toes into the comment section of this, or any other blog that deals with politics and you'll encounter plenty of it. Despite that regrettable fact, for those who lived through or have studied the milestones marking the advancement of blacks throughout our nation's history, the seeming lack of racially-motivated clashes has been a noteworthy ...
Best YouTube Moments of 2007
By Tommy Christopher - Politics DailyIt's December now, and I thought to myself, "Wouldn't it be cool to think back over the past year about what the best things were, and then put them on a list?" It's a radical concept, but let's see if it catches on. "But what about things that happen before New Year's Day, but after you do your list?", you might ask. Those things never happened. Today, I want to take a look at the year in YouTube. I've got some clips loaded here, and I'll guide you through them after the jump. They're not all explicitly political, but YouTube represents the democratization of media, for better or for ...
