President Barack Obama raised a combined $43.6 million in April for his campaign and the Democratic Party as he faces a unifying Republican effort around Mitt Romney for the White House.

It seems as if Newsweek may have jumped the shark with its latest cover implying President Obama isn’t just a supporter of gay marriage, but that he is actually gay himself.

His outrageous and idiotic pronouncements on foreign policy matters should be distressing, not chuckle-worthy [...]
