It's time for women to make their voices heard. Their silence on the subject of war and peace is deafening.

Life is too short to drink the house wine.

The White House used to belong to the American people. At least that's what I learned from history books and from covering every president starting with John F. Kennedy.

The United States has tried for years to live down President Franklin D. Roosevelt's order during World War II to move Japanese-Americans on the West Coast to inland detention camps on grounds that they might be disloyal.

I have a background and an understanding of what's happened in the Middle East that a lot of people don't have, because there's been no interest.

Every president thinks that all information that comes to the White House is their private preserve after they all promise an open administration on the campaign trail, but some are more secretive than others. Some want to lock down everything.

You're only as good as your last story.
