Why didn't The Sun use a Selma photo with President Bush?

Rudy Giuliani, once revered for his reaction to 9/11 is now just ridiculous and racist, writes Leonard Pitts Jr.

Potential GOP presidential candidates are foolishly trying to gain advantage by talking about their faith, says Cal Thomas.

I can't believe how much talk about the Texas border crisis I've heard on cable news the last two weeks without any mention of the Mariel boat lift of 1980.
