This weekend was a showcase for the extreme right-wing voters of America. It was the Values Vote Summit, where all the Republican Presidential nominees have their chance to give a speech and then the participating voters choose who they like best in a straw poll.

Ontario will continue to be led by the awful Dalton McGuinty for at least four more years. More than half of people eligible to vote in the Ontario provincial elections yesterday chose not to.

Last night President Obama gave a speech to the nation about his new jobs plan. He had many ideas and policies, many of which seem good. Democrats and Independents will like this plan. Republicans will only like small parts of it here and there. The President knew this going in, but the speech made it [...]
