Bush's Texas ranch, will take the stage with black leaders and activists in Washington D.C. on November 7th to denounce the continuation of U.S. wars under the Obama administration.
The New York Times editorial page is a perfect weather vane for the way the liberal media's hot air is blowing. In an October 26 editorial called "Torching the Big Tent," they lamented: "The feeble pulse of moderation in the Republican Party is in danger of flat-lining in the Nov. 3 Congressional election in upstate New York."
