Jan. 15, 2004In a move intended to please the conservatives who have pouted since the U.S. and Massachusetts Supreme Courts softened government stances on gay unions, President Bush has unveiled a plan to spend $1.5 billion on promoting traditional marriage.

Vote Sterns for a better Legoland
Jan. 15, 2004Finally, it's time for the Democratic primary elections to begin.

Al Sharpton, I am offering another presidential option, devoid of Democrats, Republicans and all validity (kind of like the Greens).
