Democrats were outraged yesterday after President George W. Bush suggested a pledge by the party's presidential front-runner Barack Obama to meet Iran's leader was akin to appeasement of Nazi Germany.

Bush's comments, made in Jerusalem to the Israeli Parliament during celebrations for Israel's 60th anniversary, stirred up the campaign for the November election and prompted Obama to accuse him of engaging in "the politics of fear".

Britain is turning into a nation of criminals with little sense of guilt, a study warns today.

Nearly two out of five men and women admit to an offence such as fare dodging or shoplifting in the past five years.

More than half do not see the fear of getting caught as a deterrent. And 57 per cent would not let worry about losing their job get in the way of them committing a crime.

The study commissioned by G4S Security Services (UK) into moral attitudes to crime highlights a sharp di read more »

What do you call a candidate who wins 90 percent of the African-American vote, between 30 percent and 50 percent of the Hispanic vote and 40 percent of the white vote in a tight Democratic primary race?

A general election loser.

Apply those percentages to the general election, and the candidate will bomb. In 2004, President Bush won 43 percent of the Hispanic vote, 58 percent of the white vote and 11 percent of the African-American vote. That means that John Kerry did better among Hispani read more »
