With unemployment having reached double digits this week, I delighted to learn about Leslie and Brian Mulcahy, who run Rabbit Hill Inn in Vermont. Each month they give away a free two night stay to someone who has been unemployed for more than 6 months...

I admit it. When I first saw the headline without a story at about 2:50 pm ET on November 5, my very first thought clustered around, I bet the shooter is a Muslim. Certainly, I hoped I was wrong, but deep down, my gut told me we were experiencing another visitation from Islamic violence...

Over the weekend, I shared in this blog three of the moral problems the House health care bill as it stands now creates for America. On the show on Sunday night, I shared a fourth...

We took some time off at the show this past weekend, and my wife and I enjoyed lounging around to watch a few movies at home since the rain washed out any hopes of hiking (my hope) or photography (her hope)...

Gestation has ended. The bill has arrived. On Thursday, Speaker Pelosi proudly announced the arrival of her 1990 page, $894 billion health care bill in the House of Representatives...

I finally got my cell phone back. I lost it 10 days ago at the Atlanta airport while going through the post-9/11 Muslim security experience...

Not surprising that our shows last week, and over the weekend, regarding second chances for sex offenders set off a fire storm in my email inbox. It is easy to hate. Sex offenders often do vile things. However, people can change. SOme do; some do not. I have experienced that personally...

Powerful story at cnn.com yesterday. Sad but moving account of the death of Spc. Stephan Mace. CNN focused on his mother's loving act of traveling with his body on the last leg of his return trip home - from Dover, DE to Purcellville, VA. She said, "I brought him into this world, and he was my baby...

I have been a reader of Atlantic magazine for a long time. So it was a really nice surprise to see that one of their writers noticed my blog/TownHall column about Obama's Nobel Prize. I still insist he should give it to Hu Jia in China...

A friend of mine reminds me often that we are at our best when we dig down deep to live with self-control. The moments we are most proud of often come because we said no to a lot of things and said yes to the one thing that mattered most. We sacrificed the good in order to experience the best...

Congratulations, Mr. President, you won the Nobel Peace Prize. Now it is time for you to earn it since your nomination was submitted just after you had actually taken office...
