When given the choice between having Barack Obama reach across the aisle to work with the GOP or pursue the policies he advanced during his campaign, a significant majority of Americans want him to stick to his guns ( 56 percent to 39 percent) . And 79 percent of the public wants Republicans to drop the partisanship and work with Obama.

With the announcement of some stellar titles arriving on the PSP this year, it would appear that owners of the device finally have a good reason to charge it up again and book a long train journey. With the idea of creating a cutesy LBP level during rush hour headaches-ville and ripping through Motorstorm’s snowy, mountainous terrain while sitting on the toilet firmly processed in our brains, it seems only fitting that we discuss which games should also be brought to the device.

After years in the making, an insurmountable amount of hype and negativity, positivity and pessimism, it’s finally here. It’s been a long and hard battle for Guerrilla Games (GG) these past few years. Having to try and match up to the massive expectations of the community. Mine were also huge, so the question is, how has Killzone 2 fared against them? To get a sense of what the sequel has achieved, I’ll start with the original Killzone, a game that never quite grabbed me in the way I’d ho

Max is telling us to hunker down for a long campaign between the top 6 finishers at CPAC: The early polling indicates a 6-way race between Mitt Romney, Sarah Palin, Bobby Jindal, Mike Huckabee, Newt Gingrich, and Ron Paul( or due to his age, someone similar carrying the banner for libertarians).

by Derek Wilson ~ New Zealand Pacific Institute of Resource Management Inc. A small number of extremely wealthy people, descendants of wealthy families in Europe and the U.S, own a major part of the material wealth of the world. This power is concentrated in London which is the centre of the world banking system. The control they exercise is kept within the original families and passed down from generation to generation. They are highly organised, operating in secret through a web of ‘private

Shocking news. It appears Santelli’s ’spontaneous’ rant was likely rehearsed. The whole silly tea party protest was really a pre-planned astroturf operation, designed six months ago as part of a larger anti-Obama PR campaign. Still conjecture at this point, but the circumstantial evidence is strong. Welcome to Swift Boat 2.0. [More posts daily at The Detroit News ]

When Gordon Brown enters the Oval Office, he will be the first European leader to meet Barack Obama since he became president BY TIM SHIPMAN In the marbled halls of the British ambassador’s residence in Washington, there is modest satisfaction that the prime minister has beaten his European counterparts – Nicolas Sarkozy, the French president, and Angela Merkel, the German chancellor – to Mr Obama’s door. But there is no undiplomatic crowing, and champagne corks have certainly not been p
