The industry itself pines for the halcyon days of McMansions on every block and home prices that never fall. http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/rss/mostemailedop/*http://news.yahoo.com/s/ucru/20091029/cm_ucru/mrobamaresignnow ucru/20091029/mrobamaresignnow Ted Rall opinion Thu, 29 Oct 2009 19:50:40 GMT Ted Rall - With Democrats Like Him, Who Needs Dictators? http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/rss/mostemailedop/*http://news.yahoo.com/s/ucrr/20091030/cm_ucrr/whycanadiansarelaughingatus ucrr/20091030/whycanadiansarelaughingatus Richard Reeves opinion Fri, 30 Oct 2009 23:58:53 GMT Richard Reeves - AUSTIN, Texas -- A guy walks up to you in a bar here and asks, "Are you a Republican, conservative or independent?" You can't tell if he's kidding. After all, this is the most liberal place in the state. It's also where I first heard about Shona Holmes, the Canadian lady. http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/rss/mostemailedop/*http://news.yahoo.com/s/uc/20091105/cm_uc_crlelx/op_2411876 uc/20091105/op_2411876 Larry Elder opinion Thu, 05 Nov 2009 08:00:00 GMT Larry Elder - I spoke at a recent town hall forum. The many issues discussed included the Obama administration's attack on Fox News. Later, one of the audience members came up to me and sneered, "Well, even you must admit that Fox News is biased in favor of Republicans." http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/rss/mostemailedop/*http://news.yahoo.com/s/thenation/20091106/cm_thenation/15493468 thenation/20091106/15493468 The Nation opinion Fri, 06 Nov 2009 18:33:40 GMT The Nation - The Nation -- There's a very important editorial in The Nation this week that I hope everyone will take the time to read.

We discover that the man we supported was never really morally fit to be a friend or partner of the United States. http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/rss/mostemailedop/*http://news.yahoo.com/s/uc/20091106/cm_uc_crmchx/op_511900 uc/20091106/op_511900 Mona Charen opinion Fri, 06 Nov 2009 08:00:00 GMT Mona Charen - President Obama likes to preen himself on his supposed moral superiority to his predecessor. http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/rss/mostemailedop/*http://news.yahoo.com/s/uc/20091105/cm_uc_crjcox/op_4511871 uc/20091105/op_4511871 Joe Conason opinion Thu, 05 Nov 2009 08:00:00 GMT Joe Conason - When Newt Gingrich warned Republicans that they were making a grave "mistake" by driving out moderates and enforcing the angry orthodoxy of the far right, the sober tone of his remarks was stunning. http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/rss/mostemailedop/*http://news.yahoo.com/s/ucas/20091031/cm_ucas/timetoendthismodernprohibition ucas/20091031/timetoendthismodernprohibition Cynthia Tucker opinion Sat, 31 Oct 2009 23:58:30 GMT Cynthia Tucker - Forty years ago, President Nixon used the unfortunate phrase "War on Drugs," launching a misguided crusade that has encouraged street violence, eaten away at state budgets and packed our prisons with nonviolent offenders. The nation's punitive approach to drugs has turned us into a penal colony. We lock up more of our citizens per capita than brutal dictators like Robert Mugabe and Fidel Castro. http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/rss/mostemailedop/*http://news.yahoo.com/s/ucru/20091106/cm_ucru/ditheringwhileamericasneezes ucru/20091106/ditheringwhileamericasneezes Ted Rall opinion Fri, 06 Nov 2009 00:58:28 GMT Ted Rall - Failure on H1N1 Highlights a Bigger Crisis http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/rss/mostemailedop/*http://news.yahoo.com/s/uc/20091103/cm_uc_crmchx/op_511842 uc/20091103/op_511842 Mona Charen opinion Tue, 03 Nov 2009 08:00:00 GMT Mona Charen - I labeled it "Health Care Overhaul IV" for convenience. In fact, a new 2,000-page behemoth seems to emerge more than once a week from the maw of Congress, so it's becoming impossible to keep track. http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/rss/mostemailedop/*http://news.yahoo.com/s/uc/20091104/cm_uc_crmmax/op_1911868 uc/20091104/op_1911868 Michelle Malkin opinion Wed, 04 Nov 2009 08:00:00 GMT Michelle Malkin - Here is one of the loudest messages of the 2009 off-off-year elections: Conservatives in America will no longer let their opponents define them as outside of the mainstream. They will not submit to Democrats. Or to the media. Or to Beltway Republican capitulationists. They will not "rebrand." They will not sit down. They will not shut up. http://us.rd.yahoo.com/dailynews/rss/mostemailedop/*http://news.yahoo.com/s/uc/20091106/cm_uc_crmmax/op_1911898 uc/20091106/op_1911898 Michelle Malkin opinion Fri, 06 Nov 2009 08:00:00 GMT Michelle Malkin - In 2006, the minority party in Congress issued a dire report on the "unprecedented erosion of the democratic process."

First, the White House let it be known that President Obama wasn't actually watching election returns, choosing instead to tune into HBO's puerile documentary about his own presidential campaign. Talk about ego; the man just can't get enough of himself.
