| Laura Ingraham´s former radio show on Talk Radio Network Entertainment is going on a youth kick, today announcing that Fox News Channel´s Andrea Tantaros will get the 9 a.m-noon slot. She will be joined by Jason Mattera, the youngest editor ever of conservative Human Events. The "Andrea Tantaros Show with Jason Mattera" will begin January 2, the same day Ingraham will start her new show with Courtside Entertainment Group which also produces Bill O´Reilly´s "Talking Points."

Comments: Tantaros´ occasional column for the New York Daily News had vanished and I´ve been wondering what new gig had replaced it.

It´s a huge gig for her,I wonder if she´s up to it. Most of her opinions are conventional wisdom types.It takes depth to make it in radio.

On THE FIVE, they always put her on the outside so that the studio crew could enjoy her legs.

I love Andrea. I hope she´s successful. As a replacement for Laura she´s a refreshing breath of fresh air. Laura has been shrill and nasty for months. I think her hatred of Romney has caused a mental breakdown or something.

A radio show doesn´t need to worry about the age or looks of their host unless I´ve missed some major technological advance.
Nothing against Ms Tantaros, but Laura Ingraham has an age and wisdom edge on her. I watch the Five and Andrea is the eye candy of the group.
Good luck to Laura whatever she does.

Not fair to compare radio novice Andrea to the number one woman on TalkRadio. But both women are fighters, often more feisty than their male counter parts, and both have fine conservative instincts. Andrea needs a number of years of seasoning to approach Laura´s breadth and depth. Andrea comes from good stock... immigrant, small business stock. Good luck, Andrea!

Well said, Poster #5. We need them both!! Laura is well respected by O´Reilly and subs for him often. She is smart, articulate and attractive. Honey, she does not show her age, I might add, VERY attractive. Andrea has good instincts and states the conservative side without shillness and with accuracy. Proud of these women. Wonder why the toadies haven´t attacked them. Maybe Letterman and Mahler insults are getting old with the their stupid audiences!

Congrats Andrea, but Ingraham is the most talented radio personality I´ve ever heard. Unbelievable athlete, legal mind, comedienne, human being
I miss Laura´s contributions during these crises (although they may be appearing on Fox)
She´ll return in the new year but its not fully known where. TRN sounds like they´ll consume many of her old radio slots at the outset

I was once a fan of Laura. No more. I agree with #3. She is more nasty than feisty these days. She sure did nothing to help the Republican cause during the recent election. As to Tantaros, I remain to be convinced.

Tantaros is very good. She´s up to it. If she can attract the younger Americans to conservatism, I am all for this move.
Ingraham is too shrill for many. It sometimes overshadows her message.

I´ve been a fan of Laura´s since her failed TV stint at MSNBC. However, it occurs to me that Laura might be "difficult" at times. She has constantly changed stations in many markets, staff and now a contract dispute.
Don´t know for sure, but if she´s so enlightened, why the kissup to O´Reilly, the biggest boob at FOX?

I get home from work just in time to tune into "The Five". I love Kimberly Guilfoyle but I also love the younger and equally beautiful Andrea Tantaros. Fox News knew what they were doing when they put both of these ladies on the outside for shots of their legs. That being said Andrea is more than up to the challege. She not only is drop dead gorgeous but is very smart and can handle liberal jerks like Bob Beckel. She reminds me of Katie Pavolich of Townhall.com. I have always been a fan of Laura Ingraham and had the privilege of meeting her at a republican rally back in 2004. She was not only beautiful but sharp as a tack. Sadly though her radio show stopped being carried out here several years ago. Both of these ladies are conservative warriors who give the leftist morons fits. The liberal hag women can´t compete in either brains nor looks and the limp noodle liberal men just look like fools next to them. I wish both of them luck as they counter balance the liberal agenda in the coming year and afterwards.

Well, assembled sophisticates, you’d better pull that extended arm back toward you and rescind the offer of the Martini, for I’m about to drop off society’s tightrope and out myself as one of those people naïve enough to advance a “slippery slope” argument in public. And about guns, no less. Arguendo, let’s presume that the much-vaunted Toomey-Manchin “compromise” makes it out of the Senate unalloyed, and then that it then passes the House with nary a squeak from the right. Let’s then postulate that a majority agrees with the president that expanding background checks is a “reasonable” thing to do — redolent of “a commonsense approach” — and that those of us with the temerity to oppose it will be widely painted as “extremists.”

David Corn, the Mother Jones writer who released the "secret tape" of a Mitch McConnell campaign meeting, might have broken the law by publishing information that appears to have been obtained illegally, according to sources. Asked about how the tape was obtained yesterday on TV, Corn said, "We did not make the tape. We were provided the tape. And that it is our understanding that the tape was not part of any Watergate style bugging operation, as Mitch McConnell has claimed it to be." But as details trickle out, it seems Corn might not have been particularly forthright about the tactics used.

As it turns out, George H.W. Bush isn’t the only former president named Bush with medical problems. Two sources close to the Bush family have told National Journal that George W. Bush quietly underwent back surgery several months ago to deal with a nagging disc problem. The 43rd president and his wife, Laura, spent the entire month of January in Florida so Bush could recuperate from the surgery and take in some spring-training baseball. These sources say Bush’s doctors told him to give up golf until his back healed, but he managed to sneak

Seven hundred Military Special Operations professionals. And one insistent and very angry Mom. This is becoming a deadly combination for the political game players in the Obama Administration. Sean Smith, the young State Department computer wizard who was brutally murdered that September night in Benghazi, was Pat Smith’s only child. Let’s say that again. Sean Smith was Mrs. Smith’s only child. To listen to her recent radio interview with another Sean… Sean Hannity… is to have the heart break.

President Barack Obama and Senate Democrats are going to win the first round in the fight over gun control Thursday. As many as a dozen Republicans are expected to join 50 or so Democrats to shut down a Republican filibuster blocking debate on a Democrat-authored gun bill thanks, in part, to a bipartisan deal between Sens. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) and Pat Toomey (R-Pa.) that would expand background checks on all commercial gun sales and end the so-called gun show loophole. And then the real drama will begin. Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) and other GOP senators

“Courts Without Judges” reads the headline of an attack on Senate Republicans by the New York Times editorial board. Bemoaning the fact that there 85 vacancies in the federal judiciary, the Times asserts that “by far the most important cause of this unfortunate state of affairs is the determination of Senate Republicans, for reasons of politics, ideology and spite, to confirm as few of President Obama’s judicial choices as possible.” However, as Ed Whelan points out, in the second-to-last paragraph of the editorial we learn that “62 district and circuit court vacancies have no nominees.”

While President Obama invites Republicans to his dinner table, his liberal allies are at the gates. On Wednesday night, President Obama dines with GOP senators at the White House. It´s the second act in a dinner theater that started with a meal with another group of Republican senators at the Jefferson Hotel a month ago. Obama also made public peace offerings Wednesday to those Republicans: cuts to Social Security and Medicare in his budget that he hopes will entice conservatives to a grand budget bargain. Those measures enraged his liberal allies so much

The City of New York has finally agreed to pay Occupy Wall Street for the property destroyed in the Zuccotti Park police raid on Nov. 15, 2011. OWS initiated a suit on May 24, 2012, seeking compensation for the desctruction of their People’s Library—a collection of over 5,000 donated books. About 3,600 of these were ruined during the early morning eviction of the protest camp. The City agreed to settle yesterday, awarding $47,000 in damages to OWS and $186,349.58 in attorney fees to their lawyers. “We’re very pleased with the resolution of this suit,” said Herbert Teitelbaum, a lawyer representing the plaintiffs.

U.S. and allied intelligence agencies have identified the launch zone on North Korea’s east coast where Pyongyang’s military is set to fire a salvo of missiles that risk being shot down by U.S. missile defenses in the region. The North Koreans recently began fueling two road-mobile Musudan intermediate-range ballistic missiles located along the east coast between the cities of Wonsan and Hamhung, according to intelligence officials. The officials, speaking on condition of anonymity, said in addition to the 2,500-mile-range Musudans the North Koreans could conduct test firings of several 620-mile-range Nodong missiles and shorter-range Scuds simultaneously

Where’s OFA? The pro-amnesty rally in front of the U.S. Capitol was described as “massive” on my local NPR station even before it had taken place. Here is an NBC newscast with a pretty good photo-not an up-close photo, but one that lets you gauge the size of the crowd. It’s not massive! It’s not even very large. I’d say 10,000 or fewer. Obama’s new high-tech political machine, Organizing for Action, doesn’t seem to have played a huge role in the rally. It declared a “week of action” on immigration, but that was last week.

Looking at the overall outline of the budget President Obama proposed on Wednesday makes it easy enough to see why the White House chose to leak in advance the fact that the president would propose to adopt chained CPI, one of the few non-counterproductive entitlement-reform ideas he has been willing to accept. The leak meant that Washington spent the weekend talking about entitlement reform and whether the president would anger his liberal base so that by the time the budget came out some reporters might have felt like it was old news and not actually spent much time on it.

West Virginia Democratic Sen. Jay Rockefeller, one of the towering architects of Obamacare, on Tuesday openly criticized program managers for not moving quickly enough to build the system, warning that if it gets off to a bumpy start it will just get worse. Decrying the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act as way too complex, he warned the acting Medicare director that Obamacare is "so complicated and if it isn´t done right the first time, it will just simply get worse."

The sequester may have many across the country singing the blues, but for President Obama, it was all about Memphis Soul. Even with the threat of furloughs and government cuts sparked by the sequester, Obama took the time to enjoy a star-studded concert at the White House tonight. The White House celebration of Memphis Soul music in the East Room--which included special guest appearances by Queen Latifah and Justin Timberlake--is likely to rile Obama´s Republican foes. Some conservatives have called on Obama to give up golf, especially since popular public tours of the White House have been canceled because of

In the message he issued along with his budget proposal on Wednesday morning, President Barack Obama said he wants to see 4-year-old children in the United States enrolled in public schools. Obama said America needs to start enrolling 4-year-olds to make sure the children are “better prepared for the demands of the global economy” and to help parents save on "child-care costs." After saying the United States needs to “equip our citizens with the skills and training” to fill jobs in manufacturing, energy and infrastructure, Obama said, “And that has to start at the earliest possible age.”

Although the first votes on gun -control legislation have yet to be cast, by some measures the National Rifle Association has already won. Obama’s ambitious plans to ban assault weapons and limit magazine capacities are off the table, while the NRA suggested it could support the most likely outcome -- expanded background checks -- as recently as 1999. The NRA claims that the president’s efforts have triggered a fundraising surge and boosted its membership from 4 million to nearly 5 million.
