Barack Fauxbama

Last week, Barack Obama challenged a crowd of supporters to approach Republicans and Independents and to "argue with them and get in their face." And then do what? Lie?

Oldest US voter abroad backs McCain

If you want a sense of how elderly Jewish Americans are likely to vote this November, speak to the residents of Jerusalem's Ramat Tamir retirement community. Nestled in the city's northern hills is a collection of Jewish seniors in neat, well-maintained apartments, where most of the ambient conversational buzz is in English and American-accented Hebrew. Its American residents are people who seemingly could just as easily have retired to Florida.
