As many of you know I am a big Yankee fan… I’m reminded of it everyday while living with a hardcore Mets fan. That said, I’m also a big fan of Boomer and Carton in the morning on WFAN 660. So when hopping in the car this morning, I turned on the radio to hear Craig welcome Curt Schilling to the program. “Oh Yak!” was my response. Click above and listen to to it. The interview was conducted well – Craig is known for tossing out the tough questions and making... Read More→

Steve Kornacki over at the NY Observer put together a piece on Governor Palin and her future as a potential Presidential candidate in 2012. It’s an interesting look at the “divide” amongst Republicans, (he quotes the lastest Rasmussen poll stating that Republicans prefer a conservative candidate, over a moderate one,) and that her popularity is still sky-high, (as demostrated by her recent attendance at the Alfalfa Dinner in DC). I guess I would rather pose the question, is it... Read More→

Click on the link from the Daily Politics, (above) for the latest and greatest from John Faso, a viable candidate for Congress.

So the brains behind the September 11th attacks, currently being held at Guantanamo Bay, finally want to confess to conspiracy charges. They announced this infront of the family members of the victims that perished in the attacks. There are also a couple co-conspirators that need phych evaluations prior to accepting the confessions… (A COUPLE?) I ask… WHY NOW??? Interestingly enough, Obama team considers changing interogation policies…http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/12/04/obama.torture/index.html  Read More →
