congressional republicans need to take a look at the real world. Thoose who

January 8, 2012 -- Updated 1923 GMT (0323 HKT) Editor's note: Part of the CNN Republican debate fact-checking series "We created more jobs in Massachusetts than Barack Obama's created in the entire country." -- Former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney, on employment during his 2003-2007 stint in public office, during Sunday's Republican presidential debate on NBC.

Lew will be a good choice for Chief of Staff. Going from Over looking the President's budget(Director of Management and Budget) to overlooking everything that goes on in the White House is a good step. The knowledge he gained from the OMB will be highly valuable in his new position

Washington (CNN) - If it wasn't already clear that Mitt's Romney and his allies are trying to lower expectations heading into next Wednesday's debate against President Obama in Denver, the campaign is now making it official.

Do you belieb that one of Canada's biggest exports could be deported as a result of his recent Miami arrest? The possibility is slim. Nevertheless, less than a week after it was first posted to the government's "We the People" platform, over 100,000 Americans have signed a petition asking the Obama administration to revoke Bieber's green card.

RUSH: Okay. We had this as our Morning Update today, but in case you missed it. "School officials in Carmel Clay, Ind., said they lost $300,000 last school year because students are rejecting the healthy menu changes brought on by First Lady Michelle Obama's federal lunch regulations.

Some of the students that are told to pay for the lunch, can't afford it and refuses to pay for it. Who wants [ay for a meal that they don't like and probably won't benefit them? It's the student choice not the schools.

I think this is a good idea, but we need to figure out how to make lunch affordable and healthy all at the same time.

Personal opinion: I couldn't be a president, someones always for or against you which works in many ways..Its just too much stress.

Great article. The amount of $$$ spent to get our politicians into office is spiraling out of control. SuperPACs and "dark money" sources make it impossible to see who the candidates are getting financial support from.

Der Spiegel reported Thursday that Thomas Oppermann, who leads the parliamentary committee that scrutinizes Germany's intelligence services, complained that "the NSA's monitoring activities have gotten completely out of hand, and take place beyond all democratic controls."

The bigger fear for Democrats is that public sentiment will side with Republicans who have warned for four years that Obamacare amounted to big government run amok, resulting in an unmanageable new bureaucracy.

Well, I hoped things work out in a way that we are actually working together to make the country better for the people and the economy. Obama said in his election speech that we were no longer the red and blue states but the United states of America. I really don't see that happening. A kingdom divided only destroys itself.

A college student on Wednesday confronted the former Florida governor and potential Republican presidential candidate, asserting, "Your brother created ISIS." Bush had blamed President Barack Obama earlier during the town hall event for contributing to the swelling power of ISIS, the militant Islamist group that the U.S.

A college student from the university of Nevada, questioned Bush on ISIS. His reply its Obama's fault, We never should of "pulled back"

I'm impressed the college students went up to Bush and called him out.

It could have been a simple story of facts, exaggeration and fetal tissue. In the last Republican presidential debate, Carly Fiorina passionately challenged Hillary Clinton and President Obama to watch one of the undercover videos featuring a Planned Parenthood official talking about donating fetal tissue to researchers.

Hillary Clinton continues to be a dominant force heading into the 2016 presidential election, according to a new CNN/ORC poll. The former secretary of state maintains a broad lead over the field of potential Democratic challengers she could face in a nomination contest and sizable advantages over the leading contenders from the Republican side in general election match-ups.

I would think what is going on in the media right now can hurt her in the Presidential run because people might think different of her so 2016 could get a little interesting.

Honestly, in my opinion, and take it as you will, i think that people are just choosing Hillary so we can say we got the first female president. They don't care about anything she stands for. Just like with Obama, i asked many people before he was elected, and a majority said, well it'll be a thing "get the first african american president in, the next one we will get in for the right reasons. but lets get the first one in there." so i feel its the same with Hillary, everyone wants to get the first female in. 'then they'll vote the right one in for the right reasons'

While the Western world was watching and grieving over the slaughter in Paris last week, and my colleagues in the media were fomenting a meaningless debate about whether President Obama should have gone to Paris to participate in a televised parade, the feds took advantage of that diversion to reveal even more incursions into our liberties than we had known about.

I don't think that it's right that the government has a right to see our bills, listen to our phone calls, see our emails, etc. I think that if there isn't something that gives them a reason to suspect you they shouldn't be able to go through our stuff. In my opinion, it is absolutely ridiculous.

This problem won't be faced until the populous takes action and that may take to long for the majority to realize the problem and the violation of privacy.
