| Floridas top Congressional Democrats broke with President Barack Obama on Tuesday over his administrations decision to issue Fidel Castros niece a visa to attend a conference this week in San Francisco. The opposition of Sen. Bill Nelson and Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz came just hours after Republicans had blasted away at the visa decision while failing to acknowledge that Republican President George W. Bushs administration had allowed Mariela Castro to visit the United States three times a decade ago. |

| Florida Gov. Rick Scott decided not to ignore the elephant in the room upon returning Thursday from a weeklong trade mission to Spain. Scott told reporters at Miami International Airport he apologized if he had done anything wrong in Madrid earlier this week while meeting the Spanish King Juan Carlos. During the visit, Scott repeatedly asked the monarch about his recent and controversial elephant hunt in Botswana. The 74-year-old king injured both his hip and his public standing by going on the expensive hunt while his country confronts a deep financial crisis. In videos of the encounter, Scott walks into... |
Dishonesty Of Pro-Choice Movement More Obvious To Young People Than To Old Media

| A newly released Gallup poll shows that only 41% of Americans now identify themselves as "pro-choice," a record low. A look back at the history of these polls shows at least two things: they are notoriously fickle, often seeming to show a reaction against the party in power; but there is also a general trend in the pro-life direction, which Gallup acknowledges. So, while we in no way base our pro-life convictions on polls, it is encouraging to see this general trend. And this trend is supported by other objective evidence of a changing of America's heart on the issue... |
Times-Picayune to Cut Paper to 3 Days a Week

| The Times-Picayune, one of the nation's oldest newspapers, is dropping its daily circulation after 175 years and plans to issue three printed editions a week starting in the fall. With the change, the newspaper would become the largest metro newspaper in the nation to drop daily circulation in this digital age. The paper announced Thursday the formation of a new company, the NOLA Media Group, to oversee both The Times-Picayune and its affiliated website, NOLA.com. The cutback in publication days follows similar moves made by other newspapers as the industry has struggled through economic tough times, in part caused by... |

| The magazine business isn't what it used to be. In the last ten years, Newsweek lost 2.5 million readers, and its newsstand sales are hardly worth mentioning. A full-page ad in it costs less than the price of a luxury car. Sold for a buck to the husband of an influential Congresswoman, merged with an internet site, it survives only by building issues around provocative essays and covers. If you want to understand why Newsweek put a badly photoshopped picture of Obama with a gay halo on its cover or features Romney doing a number from The Book of Mormon,... |

Romney avoids McCain's mistakes

| Judging from the opening rounds of the 2012 campaign for president, Barack Obama's campaign staff may have met its match with the rapid-response group put together by Mitt Romney. Unlike the presidential campaign four years ago, when political newcomer Obama rolled over a strangely passive John McCain, Obama this time around faces an aggressive Romney campaign team that is savvy and bold, and knows how to punch back. And frequently, the counterpunch is more effective than the punch, especially when the first punch comes from Obama, who is prone to lead with his chin, and is used to treating candidates... |

But thats down from 33% in late March when the case first began to draw national headlines and 30% in early April.

| Students in high schools around Michigan and the nation are being taught how former U.S. Representative Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick, D-Detroit, was more interested in finding solutions than focusing on politics, according to a 2005 American Government textbook still in use. The best public policy is bipartisan, Kilpatrick is quoted as saying on page 339 of a profile of her called, Voices on Government, in Prentice Hall Magruders American Government." Except, nobody considered Kilpatrick, the mother of ex-Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, to be bipartisan in the 14 years she served in the U.S. House of Representatives. Kilpatrick had one of the... |

The media are systematically pulling out all the stops to destroy Mitt Romney, the Tea Party movement, and major Republican financial contributors in an undeclared but understood alliance with the Obama re-election machine. The two pre-eminent pillars of the mainstream media, The Washington Post and The New York Times, have put all Republicans on notice that the media will hunt down rumors... |

It's anecdotal, but I happen to think that this might be applicable in a statistical way to the nation at large. We played the audio sound bite from Obama reading from one of his books a couple of weeks ago, in which he admitted bullying a young girl, in which he admitted trying cocaine, admitted that he drank a lot, basically just lollygagged around. I know we've got new listeners to this program. It's been documented by the official... |

| BEGIN TRANSCRIPT RUSH: Trayvon Martin had drugs in his system. This is turning out to be the Duke lacrosse case all over again. Trayvon Martin, 17-year-old who was shot and killed by George Zimmerman, had the drug THC in his system the night of his death. That's the primary ingredient in marijuana. The revelation came as prosecutors in the case prepared to release to the public hundreds of pages of new evidence along with videos and crime scene photos. None of this information was in the charging affidavit, none of it. The charging affidavit contained only the fact that Zimmerman... |

| The number of radical hate groups and militias has exploded in recent years in reaction to the changing makeup of America, and new census figures showing the majority of babies born in 2011 were non-white could fuel those simmering tensions, experts who track hate groups warned. "White supremacist groups have been having a meltdown since the census bureau predicted that non-Hispanic whites would lose the majority by 2050," said Mark Potok, spokesman for the Southern Poverty Law Center, which monitors hate groups. "The demographic change in this country is the single most important driver in the growth of hate groups... |

Ill end the suspense about 12,000 results, according to the search I conducted earlier today. Now, do a search on Obama Jeremiah in the same time frame, and youll get 4,190 hits, which is more than I expected but only about a third of the Romney-Mormon search results. Actually, the same search only turns up 4,330 hits since 1851, which means that before mid-2011 the Times only had less... |

| Unfortunately for CNN, Piers Morgan Tonight was the apparent victim of the busy night, drawing only 39,000 viewers 25-54 at 9 PM. To say those ratings are anomalous would be something of an understatement. That is the lowest 9 PM weekday demo rating for CNN since at least 1997. |
