VIDEO: Gingrich Fatigue?

It seems that Newt Gingrich’s 2012 presidential campaign isn’t generating much excitement down home in Georgia: This week Newt Gingrich made news by opening a campaign headquarters in a Buckhead office building — with word that he expected to announce his presidential candidacy in the coming week.

Imams on a Plane

Apparently it’s not just Juan Williams who has this problem: An airline is investigating the removal of two imams from a flight headed to North Carolina, ostensibly because passengers felt uncomfortable with their presence of the pair — both clad in Islamic attire.
