    She took over as mayor of a small town in Alaska with the population of slightly over 5,000 people and virtually no debt and left office with over $20 million in long term debt, or about $3000 in debt per person. This was primarily [...]

  • Another Case For Blogger Ethics Panel

    Number of comments: 2
    A local blogger takes me to the woodshed:

    He is an embarrassment to all the bloggers whether right or left or undecided.
    His use of the N word violates the new more friendly racial tone of our country.

    I am deeply offended by his attempt to stir [...]

  • Further Questions About Governor Palin

    Number of comments: 0
    I am deeply concerned that John McCain has selected as his running mate someone closely affiliated with a separatist group who has their own National Anthem and does not fly the flag of the United States. This is not a small matter like choosing to wear a lapel pin or [...]

  • McCain; Noun, Verb, POW

    Number of comments: 0
    Seems Pappy McCain is a one-trick pony. He answers all questions by bringing up his POW status. When he is criticized for not knowing how many homes he owns, he simply reminds people he remembered when he didn't have a home and was a guest of the Hanoi Hilton. When [...]

    Republicans are usually very clever using code words, dog whistles only rabid followers can understand, which is a trademark of the southern strategy.

  • Experience Versus Judgment

    Number of comments: 0
    The entire effort to stop Senator Obama from becoming first the Democratic nominee for President and now the next President of The United States has been his lack of experience. Senator Obama's defense is that experience is not a benefit if one lacks good judgment.

    The result of [...]

    Like most Americans, I deeply disapprove of the direction America is going. Seems like the threads of old glory are slowly coming apart, and in the hyper partisan atmosphere today, everyone seems to be shouting past each other, and the only things that get done further deepens the hole we [...]

    Number of comments: 0

    Well, John McCain seems to be angry, which is usually spun to define him as even tempered. His surrogates are in hyper-drive trying to fog the fact that John McCain has endorsed every single Bush plan for the last seven years. His latest fact-free surrogate [...]

    In the virtual shadow of Co-dependence Day, (the day after independence day) the Democrats of the Senate, having picked up sufficient pre-emptive bail money from the telecoms, are prepared to permanently establish a two-tiered justice system in America by granting the telecom companies retro-active amnesty for their [...]

    It should not be overlooked that the war in Iraq played a huge role in the Democratic primary. One candidate voted for the war and the other opposed it. Senator Obama repeatedly pointed out his opposition to the war and should be noted his judgement played a key role in [...]

    Who wrote this?
    It was a shameful thing to ask men to suffer and die, to persevere through god-awful afflictions and heartache, to endure the dehumanizing experiences that are unavoidable in combat, for a cause that the country wouldn’t support over time and that our leaders so wrongly believed [...]

    The media, that is. Part of Scotty McClellan's new book that is creating such a firestorm is his claim that the stenographic nature of todays media is partially responsible for the disaster that is named Iraq.

    A report by Congressional Quarterly examined how legislators voted when Bush stated specific views about legislation. In 2008, when Senator McCain bothered to show up, he voted Dubya's wishes 100 percent of the time.

    This clip is painful to watch simply because some rightard idiot yammers on incessantly about something he has some vague notion of as being bad, but does not know why, or how.
