    President Barack Obama will address the nation on Tuesday about Syria, probably to hector the unwilling electorate into trying to support a military strike most don't want.

  • The president doesn't have the votes in the House, either.  When asked what he'll do if he can't get the votes, he wouldn't say.
  • Anthony Weiner's friends say he's already planning a comeback following his disastrous mayoral race. Funny, wasn't this race his comeback?
  • How does Supreme Court Justice Napolitano sound? Awesome, right? Unfortunately, Vice President Joe Biden was referring to outgoing Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano, not Andrew Napolitano.
  • Mexico City is mulling legalizing marijuana and establishing smoking clubs, but the president of Mexico is not on board.
  • A volcano 1,000 miles east of Japan has been declared the largest on earth.
