Brussels - Iran has cancelled a European Parliament delegation visit to Tehran after the group asked to meet two Iranian activists awarded a top EU rights prize, a parliament spokeswoman said on Saturday. The decision came after senior officials at the parliament, which on Friday awarded its Sakharov prize for human rights and freedom of thought to human rights lawyer Nasrin Sotoudeh and filmmaker Jafar Panahi, said they wanted the delegation to meet the two activists. "After hearing the new conditions, the Iranians decided to cancel," European Parliament spokeswoman Satu Helin told Reuters.

A new video from the founders of a celebrated advertising agency features children “of the future” singing about the aftermath of a Mitt Romney presidency: A world where sick people are required to “just die,” the atmosphere is “frying,” gays can be “fixed” and “oil fills the sea.” The children, who stare blankly at the camera throughout the video, even take pains to explicitly mention that they blame “mom and dad” for all those horrors. The video — produced by the founders of the advertising agency Goodby Silverstein & Partners, which came up with the famous tagline “Got milk?” and boasts clients like Cheetos, Netflix, the National Basketball Association

Media Blackout:
Why Obama Dodged the Libya Question

Breitbart's Big Journalism, by John Nolte Original Article

President Obama ran into a buzzsaw yesterday while doing a round-robin of satellite interviews with local news outlets in crucial swing states -- and by "buzzsaw," I mean that rare form of species known as a "real reporter." Kyle Clark of Colorado's KUSA actually asked Obama about the latest revelations out of Libya. According to Fox News, the three requests for help made during the seven-hour attack on our consulate in Benghazi were met with orders from U.S. officials to "stand down." Wisely, Obama dodged this question entirely. I say "wisely" because,

Pensacola, Fla. - Mitt Romney swooped into Florida’s Republican-dominated panhandle Saturday to rally his conservative base, charging that President Obama was “shrinking from the magnitude of the times” and pledging to undo much of his first-term record. Romney continued his new mantra that he would bring “real change and big change to America” and promised to work across the aisle with Democrats to tackle big challenges like the growing debt. And, visiting an area heavily populated with active and retired military, Romney slammed Obama for mocking him in the last debate over his proposal to add more ships to the

Mitt Romney supporters showed up in droves this morning for the Republican presidential nominee's campaign stop at the Pensacola Bay Center. Throngs of excited fans began forming at the crack of dawn. Hours before the event began, the line stretched in a winding trail for nearly a mile from the entrance of the Pensacola Bay Center. (Snip) Karla Kelly and Pamela Moser of Mobile, Ala., were among many supporters who traveled to Pensacola from Alabama to see Mitt Romney.

Gaza City - A Gaza health official says that a panicking cow has killed a Palestinian man who was trying slaughter the beast during the Muslim celebration of Eid al-Adha. Muslims around the world slaughter sheep, cows and goats during the four-day holiday to commemorate the sacrifice by their forefather Abraham. But accidents are comment as people frequently buy animals to slaughter at home instead of relying on professional butchers. Official Ashraf al-Kidra said on Saturday that another 150 more people were hospitalised in Gaza with knife wounds or other injuries caused by animals attacking butchers or bystanders.

New Afghan war phase,
with no decisive end seen

Kabul, Afghanistan - A new chapter of the Afghanistan war is opening with a slimmed-down Western force doing more advising than fighting, a resilient Taliban showing little interest in peace talks, and Americans tempted to pull the plug on a conflict now in its 12th year. A decisive end seems nowhere in sight. (Snip) "We are probably headed for stalemate in 2014," says Stephen Biddle, a George Washington University political science professor who has advised U.S. commanders in Afghanistan and Iraq.

If you have any lingering romantical notions about the big nothingburger of old n’ busted recyclables that is President Obama’s last-ditch effort at a “second-term agenda,” here’s another exercise in futility we can glean from its glossy depths — or, rather, its glossy shallows.

The security officer had a laser on the target that was firing and repeatedly requested back-up support from a Specter gunship, which is commonly used by U.S. Special Operations forces to provide support to Special Operations teams on the ground involved in intense firefights. The fighting at the CIA annex went on for more than four hours — enough time for any planes based in Sigonella Air base, just 480 miles away, to arrive. Fox News has also learned that two separate Tier One Special operations forces were told to wait, among them Delta Force operators.

Just one day after President Obama went on television saying that politics had nothing to do with the now bankrupt Abound Solar receiving a taxpayer-backed loan guarantee from the Energy Department, emails have surfaced that contradict these claims and suggest White House involvement in the company receiving the loan. (Snip) However, emails obtained by completecolorado.com suggest that the White House was involved in the Energy Department awarding Abound Solar a $400 million loan gurantee, contradicting the President’s claim.

Manchester, N.H. - I know you are but what am I. You're rubber, I'm glue. That's what the presidential campaigns have to say about each other in the final week and a half when it comes to the charge of negative campaigning. Mitt Romney's campaign says that's all there is to the President Obama's campaign--as Romney spokesman Ryan Williams characterized Obama's round of Friday interviews about the race, "filled with misleading statements and outright falsehoods." Obama campaign spokeswoman Jen Psaki is not impressed. "Facts are not their forte," she said, adding that Romney's major economy" speech delivered Friday in Ames,

Some say that campaign ads are getting just ridiculous. But now it’s taken a turn to the truly bizarre. An Indiana man has auctioned off space on the side of his head, where he tattooed Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign “R” logo in a 5-by-2-inch spot for a bid of $15, 000. Eric Hartsburg posted the eBay listing in August, and told ABC News that he was paid $15,000 by a Republican eBay user, who preferred to remain anonymous, to get the Romney logo permanently inked on the side of his head. Hartsburg, who is an Indiana native, told ABC News

New data compiled by the Republican side of the Senate Budget Committee shows that, last year, the United States spent over $60,000 to support welfare programs per each household that is in poverty.

The CorruptMedia is desperate to keep Obama voters motivated to turn out through a phony Narrative that says Romney's momentum has stalled.

Gallup: Romney Up 51%-46%

According to today’s Gallup tracking poll, Mitt Romney’s lead over incumbent President Barack Obama has stretched to a five point margin. Romney is now up among likely voters 51% to 46%. Yesterday, the tracking poll had Romney up by only three points, 50% to 47%. The lead is broadening. That’s no doubt due to President Obama’s insistence on going small with his campaign. From Big Bird to binders to bayonets to ads suggesting that voting for Obama is like losing your virginity, this campaign has minimized the issues the American people face. And it’s paying the price for it.

Add that to Jim Geraghty’s comments that “Barring Some Sudden Change, Romney Will Win the Popular Vote,” and you have two prominent statistics-oriented conservative pundits who — at least as of Friday, October 26 — are willing to go on the record that they believe Romney will win in November.

President Obama advocated more political music on Friday in an interview with MTV.

"Everything moves so fast today that you can set the world on fire in a positive way just in a message that goes through the internet," he said, noting that he used to have to "buy an album or a cartridge."

When President Obama flew to Chicago to cast his vote early in Chicago on Thursday, he became one of over eight million Americans to have already made their decision for the November election. And now with the election just ten days away, early results from those polls are giving both the president and Mitt Romney cause to claim victory - despite neither campaign having established a distinct advantage. In encouraging results, President Obama appears to be matching his 2008 presidential victory totals across the country, but Romney is exceeding Senator John McCain's efforts and appears to be

The mother of CNBC executive Kevin Krim said that the young family treated their children’s nanny, Yoselyn Ortega, as they would one of their own. Mr and Mrs Krim ‘bent over backwards’ to help Ortega, going so far as to purchase plane tickets for her so she could fly back to her native Dominican Republic, Karen Kim said. The grieving grandmother added that the horrific murders of her grandchildren, six-year-old Lucia and two-year-old Leo last night, are taking a heavy toll on her family.
