KFC pays college women for ad space on buns

KFC pays college women for ad space on buns KFC wants folks to watch its backside. Or, more precisely, the backsides of female college students it's recruiting to promote its hot new bunless Double Down sandwiches. Women on college campuses are being paid $500 each to hand out coupons while wearing fitted sweatpants with "Double Down" in large letters across their rear ends. The promo comes as KFC is in the doldrums domestically. The world's largest chicken chain's U.S. same-store sales fell 7% in the second quarter. Nearly all its growth now is in international expansion. Last week, the chain confessed that more than six in 10 Americans ages 18 to 25 — ...

Bono's ONE foundation under fire for giving little over 1% of funds to charity Bono's anti-poverty foundation ONE is under pressure to explain its lavish salaries after it was revealed that only a small percentage of money it raises reaches the needy. The non-profit organisation set up by the U2 frontman received almost £9.6m in donations in 2008 but handed out only £118,000 to good causes (1.2 per cent). The figures published by the New York Post also show that £5.1m went towards paying salaries.

Hayworth To Be Tea Party Spokesman

The Tea Party is expected to announce that former Rep. JD Hayworth (R-Ariz.) will become a national spokesperson for the movement, a source close to the matter told The Hill. Despite Hayworth's unwavering support of tax cuts enacted by President George W. Bush and seeking to permanently end taxes on capital gains and estates, the Tea Party earlier this year did not back his bid to unseat Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.). Four of the state's largest tea party groups refused to endorse him because of his voting record in Congress. "The tea party is a non-partisan, grassroots movement that stands for limited government, free markets and fiscal responsibility," said Robert ...

HELENA, Mont. — Tea party leaders stung by turmoil over anti-gay rhetoric from their ranks acknowledge the publicity over the issue hurts the movement but hope the rancor will be short-lived. The Big Sky Tea Party Association was splintered at the top when it canned its president after learning of his part in an online anti-gay discussion. Some backed the president, Tim Ravndal, forcing the board to revisit the sticky issue before deciding to stick with its decision to remove Ravndal from leadership while making it clear he remains a member of the group. The episode marks the first public setback for a new movement that has attracted throngs of supporters angry over federal ...

WASHINGTON - In the days leading up to the Delaware primary, Sal Russo hosted a radio fundraiser, organized a political rally and pressed the case with reporters that Christine O'Donnell was the Tea Party's choice for the U.S. Senate. He also set off what he calls a "money bomb," pouring at least $250,000 into TV and other advertisements promoting the little-known candidate. With O'Donnell's upset victory in the Republican primary on Tuesday, Russo, the chief strategist behind an upstart group called the Tea Party Express, had racked up another win. But in becoming one of the movement's most successful players by helping Tea Party favorites oust incumbents or ...

Newt Gingrich spoke to a closed-door breakfast of the Republicans of the House the other day after the last primaries, and the irony you need to know is that the only members who showed up were the clueless Boehner crew, who are not in on the joke that in the GOP cloakroom they call Newt "Fat Elvis." The young House members have spent the last four years living under siege from the Democratic battalions while their ranks thinned and their cash dwindled, and all the while Newt Gingrich was in the pulpit of Fox News castigating them for their gutlessness. The young remember the scoldings and the sermons, and, much like a child who grew up to be a star athlete, they resent having ...

She was schedule to appear on CBS’ Face the Nation tomorrow, but host Bob Schieffer has tweeted that O’Donnell canceled: O’Donnell isn’t even heeding her consigliere Sarah Palin’s advice, who urged her this week to “speak through Fox News.” O’Donnell was scheduled to ...

Christine O'Donnell isn't the only Delaware Tea Party candidate making waves. The seat in the House of Representatives currently held by Republican Mike Castle -- who was defeated by O'Donnell in Tuesday's Senatorial primary -- is also up for grabs. The Republican primary for that office was won by Tea Partier Glen Urquhart, and it turns out that his political positions may be even more unique than O'Donnell's. "Do you know, where does this phrase 'separation of church and state' come from?" Urquhart asked at a campaign event last April. "It was not in Jefferson's letter to the Danbury Baptists. ...

Reporting from Philadelphia — As Democrats seek to focus voter attention on the nation's economic problems that existed before President Obama took over, they have begun wielding a sharp new tool: the Wall Street reform law and Republican opposition to it. Large GOP gains in Congress could allow Republicans to hinder, or in some cases block, the ability of regulators to implement the law's stricter oversight of the financial industry. With the stakes so high, Democrats are highlighting any Republican ties to Wall Street — no matter how dated or tangential. But Republicans are fighting back, downplaying their Wall Street connections even as the financial industry funnels ...

U.S. Senate candidate Rand Paul cited several ideas for cutting federal spending at a news conference Tuesday, but he said it would be impossible for him to spell out a specific proposal to balance the federal budget before Nov. 2. Paul, a Republican, has made the federal debt a centerpiece of his campaign, criticizing his party and Democrats for the sea of red ink. In an interview on WHAS radio last month, Paul said that if elected, he would introduce a plan to balance the budget in one year, as well as multi-year plans. "But I will stay on the floor until I've introduced five different proposals" to balance the budget in one to five years, Paul said. "If you're ...

With polls showing significant GOP momentum this fall, Republicans in recent weeks began to believe they had a real chance of retaking control of the Senate in November. But a major primary upset at the hands of a tea party insurgent on Tuesday may have put the Senate GOP's dreams of a majority at serious risk. In the biggest electoral surprise of the night, conservative activist Christine O'Donnell defeated longtime GOP Rep. Mike Castle in Delaware's Republican Senate primary. Castle, a moderate who once served as the state's governor, had been so favored to win in November that his decision to run had reportedly influenced Democrat Beau Biden, son of Vice President Joe ...

With electoral victories racking up - and a greater than ever chance that Republicans will take back the House this year - it's time for the "tea party" movement to transition from winning elections to influencing policy in Congress, former House majority leader Richard K.

Speaking to reporters at a breakfast hosted by the Christian Science Monitor, Armey, who is chairman of national tea party organizer FreedomWorks, spoke at length about the upcoming elections and the need to translate tea party victories at the ballot box into a legislative focus on reducing government spending, rolling back health-care reform and, if possible, reducing taxes. ...

At a Monitor-sponsored breakfast with reporters on Monday, FreedomWorks president Matt Kibbe said, “We stayed out of that race because we are not convinced that Christine O’Donnell can win.” In Tuesday’s Republican primary in Delaware, Ms. O’Donnell squares off against Rep.

BOWLING GREEN, Ky. (AP) -- Kentucky Senate hopeful Rand Paul has chided fellow Republican politicians for contributing to the nation's budget deficit in a speech to tea party activists in his hometown. Paul told the gathering in Bowling Green on Sunday evening that Republicans "have taken the easy way out" in the past by failing to back up tax cuts with corresponding spending reductions. Paul said that Republicans squandered their congressional majorities in the past two decades, and said they doubled the national debt. He also took aim at Democrats, accusing them of even greater blame for rising deficits. The Bowling Green eye doctor is a first-time candidate who defeated ...
Poll: Speaker Wanna-Be Boehner’s Approval 11 Points Lower Than Speaker Pelosi’s

Buoyed by media’s narrative that Republicans will win control of Congress in November, GOP leaders in Congress are already measuring the drapes in the Capitol. The fact that 39 percent have never heard of Boehner — who is known in the Capitol for boozing, schmoozing and playing golf with lobbyists — offers Democrats the opportunity to define him as the old face of the “new” GOP. If they do, it is looking increasingly unlikely that they will enjoy much, if any, of a honeymoon with voters after the 112th Congress is sworn in in January. One month ago, a Wall St. Journal/NBC poll found that congressional Republicans had just a 24 percent approval rating, the lowest ...
