Giuliana Rancic puts marriage first, child second
Sat Mar 2, 2013
- I have been married for 16 years and will never get divorced. My husband and I put our kids first and that is why I love him so much. That is where our focus is while they are in the house and we are a team. I don't think I could marry a man that demanded more attention than a helpless baby or …

Fri Mar 1, 2013

Minimalist mom vows to spend nothing on her kid in 2013
Fri Jan 25, 2013

Biden not shying away from 2016 speculation
Tue Jan 22, 2013
- I am afraid that the minorities will not come out and vote for a white man just like they did not show for Kerry or Gore.
