Bush's presidency is looking better compared to Obama
In regards to "Misoverestimating Bush" (April 25), it's surprising that this complete nincompoop could somehow manipulate not only the intelligence community in this country but even our allies into reporting that Iraq had weapons of mass destruction. The...

Beyond Tom Perez: Why do we need a Labor Department?
Well, America survived. Yes, it's true, the United States was able to withstand two months without a labor secretary. The previous secretary, Hilda Solis, stepped down on Jan. 22. That thud you heard was no one noticing. No one noticed because, like...

Goodbye, Joe Lieberman
After 24 years in the U.S. Senate, Joe Lieberman of Connecticut, the first and only Jewish politician nominated to a national major party ticket, in 2000, had some advice to his colleagues in a farewell speech Wednesday on the Senate floor. To break the...

Why Al Jazeera buying Current is a good thing for media, country
The Baltimore SunI don’t care if Al Gore got more money than he ever deserved for his pathetic channel, or Glenn Beck got the short end of the stick in trying to buy it as an escape from his prison of media marginalization. All of that is ideological and...Tags: Television Industry, George W. Bush, DirecTV Group Inc., Verizon Communications, Hillary Clinton

Of course Al Jazeera has a bias, but it's not what most critics think
The Baltimore SunReading some of the nutty coverage of Al Jazeera's purchase of Current TV from Al Gore, I am not sure whether the problem is ideology or ignorance when it comes to the sorry state of media criticism today. Last week, I explained why I thought Al...Tags: Frontline Limited, MSNBC (tv network), Television Industry, BBC, Al Jazeera (tv network)

Don't count Biden out in 2016
As the second Obama term gets underway, much is being said and written about the president finally emerging as a tougher, stronger Democrat in the liberal mold of past party greats. His second inaugural address pressed Republicans in Congress to accept...

President Biden? History says no
I read with interest Jules Witcover's recent commentary, "Don't count Biden out in 2016" (Jan. 29), suggesting that Vice President Joe Biden might be a serious candidate for president in 2016. If history is a guide, the chances of a sitting Vice...Tags: George H.W. Bush, Elections, Richard Nixon, Jules Witcover, Joe Biden

Mitt Romney has no future in the GOP
As if Mitt Romney's defeat weren't a cross enough to bear, the kind of campaign he ran could make him uniquely a man on the outside of his party looking in. His chameleon-like shades of Republicanism — he presented himself as "severely...

Many reasons to vote in Harford, as plenty do just that
Harford County voters had many reasons for packing the county's 75 polling places of Election Day Tuesday, and not all of them had to do with electing the nation's next commander-in-chief. The interest shown by Harford's voters translated a huge turnout,...Tags: Havre de Grace, Voting, Benjamin L. Cardin, Lobbying, Mitt Romney

Hillary in 2012? It could happen
A number of news reports have suggested the possibility of the presidential election ending in a draw — both candidates garnering 269 electors. You need 270 to win. A long shot? Maybe. It happened in 1800, when Thomas Jefferson and Aaron Burr each...

Eagle Archive: For people who want to make history, Election Day is your chance
As the 2012 presidential campaign soldiers on toward its final days, no one seems at a loss for an opinion on the outcome. Since 2010 in Maryland, we don't have to wait until the first Tuesday in November to vote. Early voting centers — in...Tags: George W.
