ST. PAUL -- A federal bill banning synthetic substances that mimic traditional illegal drugs is now law. President Barack Obama today signed a food and drug safety bill into law; it contains provisions outlawing synthetic drugs such 2C-E and "spice." "In Minnesota and across the...

BURNSVILLE -- The Better Business Bureau of Minnesota and North Dakota warns businesses and consumers that an offer to have President Obama pay their utility bills through a new federal program is a scam. The bogus offer has been reported nationwide and is now making its way into...

Supporters of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act -- including President Obama -- got a big win Thursday when the Supreme Court ruled 5-4 to uphold the law, including the individual mandate, as "constitutional." While it was a 5-4 split vote, the majority ruling was written...

Tim Chermak (Public Forum, June 21) urges the impeachment of President Obama because he has used executive orders. I wonder if he also wished the same for President George W. Bush as he also used the same tactic. According to Google, Obama has issued 128 executive orders and Bush...

Tim Chermak (Public Forum, June 21) would make the readers believe that President Obama has used an unconstitutional tactic by calling for the president's impeachment for his use of an executive order and reminds the president that he is not a king. I would like to remind the writer...

Do the recent actions of the president and his administration concern you? When the government can announce that private organizations, i.e. the Catholic Church, must provide contraception and abortions to all their employees and then tell the insurance companies that they are to...

President Barack Obama is calling on Congress to extend a payroll tax cut for the remainder of the year as another deadline nears for Congress to act or see taxes go up for millions of working Americans. Lawmakers agreed back in December, after much bickering, on a two-month extension,...

I watched Jan. 24 as President Obama hit one over the left field fence. Too bad bases weren't loaded with players like "Spending Cuts," "Debt Reduction" and "Keystone Pipeline." Perhaps his coaches should have signaled for some sacrifices earlier in the game so his team wouldn't...

Dear Democrats Me, worry? Yes. Every day I'm asked by Democrats whether to worry about Mitt Romney. Many of them, frankly, aren't. They tell me about his being a Mormon (unfair, but true, the prejudice is real) and about the right-wing attacks and the Bain business and his being...
