|
Thursday, 15 July 2010 |
|
Jon Stewart, host of The Daily Show, and Stephen Colbert, host of The Colbert Report, are two of America's most popular late-night comedians. Stewart took over as "anchor" of The Daily Show in 1999. Colbert, himself a former "correspondent" of The Daily Show, became the "anchor" of the conservative spinoff, The Colbert Report, in 2005. Today, many Americans, in particular those of the younger generation, watch either The Daily Show or The Colbert Report, to get their latest scoop on the nation's news and politics. Who has a better "news" show?

Should the U.S. Senate ratify the new START treaty? |
|
Tuesday, 11 May 2010 |
|
The
New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (New START) was signed by
presidents Barack Obama and Dmitry Medvedev in Prague on April 8,
2010. The treaty requires a two-thirds majority in the Senate
for
ratification. Proponents of the treaty say it enhances U.S.
security by placing limits on deployed strategic warheads and by laying
the groundwork for stronger international action on arms control and
nonproliferation. Critics say the limitations in the treaty
on
U.S. nuclear and conventional weapons undermine U.S. security and will
not deter states like Iran and North Korea from seeking to acquire
nuclear weapons.

in his speech at the National Tea Party Convention calling for a civic
literacy test for voters. Supporters view a civic literacy test as a

discriminatory. What do you think?
