Cheap Gas Here

The economy may be tumbling, but so is the cost of fuel -- down nationally by an average of almost $1.30 over the last year. And that's putting a smile on the faces of many drivers. ABC News correspondent Ryan Owens goes from coast to coast in search of the cities with the cheapest gas prices. How does your hometown stack up?

President Bush on Faith

"Nightline" co-anchor Cynthia McFadden has a rare interview with President George Bush in which the outgoing leader candidly discusses his relationship with God. What role did spirituality play in how the Bush administration responded to several challenges during his tenure in the White House? The answer to that question, in his own words.

We hope you'll join us.

Travaglio: La guerra tra procure è una balla. Vogliono uccidere Mani Pulite 2; WHY NOT, LA GUERRA TRA PROCURE È UNA BALLA.

 
MICROMEGA

MARCO TRAVAGLIO
WHY NOT, LA GUERRA TRA PROCURE È UNA BALLA.
VOGLIONO UCCIDERE MANI PULITE 2


In uno straordinario audio di 38 minuti, su www.micromega.net, Marco Travaglio spiega perchè l'intervento del presidente Napolitano, e del Csm, è intimidatorio: "Non c'è nessuna guerra tra procure come vorrebbero far credere il coro dei giornali e l'intera casta politica (ad eccezione di Di Pietro). C'è un'indagine della procura di Salerno su quella di Catanzaro e una guerra della procura di Catanzaro contro quella di Salerno. Per impedire che si faccia luce sulla nuova P2".
