The Spanish-language newscast has now become the top rated newscast in New York City.

Speculation continues to swirl over the candidates' choices for VP. Both lists include little-known members of the House. I'll tell you tonight who I think will be the best choice for each candidate.

Tim Pawlenty, who is considered a frontrunner to be John McCain's running mate, says that the Republican Party needs to look towards "Sam's Club voters."

The filthy, stinking, evil rich upper class is having to cut back on spending in this down economy. I'm sure most Americans are too busy being consumed by their wealth envy to care that this affects them.

The Messiah leads 2-to-1 over McCain among the poor. Most of these people are just leeches, so of course they like the guy who wants bigger government and loves wealth envy.

While we're on the topic of wealth envy, how about the 2007 tax data? The top 1% paid almost 40% of all federal income taxes, while they earned only 22% of income. What exactly is their fair share?

The unemployment rate jumped to 5.7 percent in July, but there is another telling statistic: the rate among teenagers was 20.3 percent, the highest since 1992.

Barack Obama now wants Florida and Michigan to get their full slate of delegates. Now that he's the nominee, of course the rules no longer matter. Not that it matters either way—Hillary doesn't even want to be nominated at the convention.

Economic models predict that Obama will win the election in November. Polls show exactly the opposite.

John McCain is now considering a compromise on offshore oil drilling. Why should we trust the Maverick now?

Oil is below $120 a barrel for the first time in almost three months. Notice that it reached its peak before the serious threat to drill. By the way, the speculators are responsible for the fall of oil. So much for the Democrats' boogeyman.

The Messiah wants to tap the United States' strategic petroleum reserve, claiming that gas prices will fall within two weeks of doing so. He's also coming around to the idea of drilling offshore, much to the chagrin of the left-wing NutRoots. At least they still have Nancy Pelosi, who refuses to even allow a vote on offshore drilling.

The Wall Street Journal asks a good question of The Messiah: What exactly is a windfall profit?

A new study says that the climate in Western Europe cooled drastically exactly 12,679 years ago. That climate change was natural; why won't anybody believe that this one is too?

The United Nations is scrambling to save livestock in Peru, which is threatened by freezing temperatures. Don't worry though, folks, the earth is still warming.

Finally an answer to these ridiculous carbon offsets: Every hit on this website will put another cubic foot of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

"Crazy" Mahmoud Ahmadinejad says that diplomacy is the key to solving the dispute over Iran's nuclear program. The only problem is that they refuse to stop any of their nuclear activities. How's that for meeting without preconditions?

A Tyson chicken plant in Shelbyville, Tennessee is no longer giving its employees Labor Day off. Instead, the union representing the majority-Somali workers at the plant got the employees the Muslim holiday Eid al-Fitr, the last day of Ramadan, as a day off.

Somali women are upset that the city of Portland, Oregon will not meet their special demands to use the city's government swimming pools. One step at a time, folks…

Before leaving town, Congress passed a bill to give themselves more control over colleges. They claim it is to control the cost of college. This, of course, is all in the interest of buying votes long into the future by pandering to college students as soon as they can vote the first time.

The other thing that this do-nothing Congress managed to accomplish was pass a bill to spend $72.7 billion dollars, including 510 earmarks.

The great Robert Novak, one of the best political journalists in the country, has retired due to his brain tumor.

A convicted murderer is challenging his death sentence, claiming that he is too fat to die.

A motorcyclist died after hitting a horse in Towns County.

A man in Jacksonville, Florida called 911 after a Subway left the sauce off his sandwich. Remember, these are the kinds of people who will be choosing the next President of the United States.
