The president has made it clear that no matter how low expectations are for the meeting, he is certain that he can find a way to fail to meet them.

Republican members of Congress are being asked to fill out a three-page survey as part of their America Speaking Out project, which will help them establish the party's agenda moving forward.

Glenn Beck has announced he is starting an online college called Beck University, where students can learn about, "the concepts of Faith, Hope and Charity and show you how they influence America's past, her present and most importantly her future."
