Remember a couple of weeks ago when there was all this talk that Canada was using coins with radio transmitters to spy on us? The Defense Department put out a warning about them and everything. It was something that sounded so James Bond(ish). Well now we have the Defense Department issuing their own mia culpa […]
There is all this flack over Rich Little headlining the Correspondents’ dinner this year. Reading the article on Editor and Publisher, I was amused at the final paragraph: Scully has said that the choice of Little, who practices a milder former of humor than Colbert, had nothing to do with any controversy surrounding Colbert’s performance […]
Bob Ney just got sentenced to 30 months in federal prison for his role in the bribery scandal. I guess the judge wouldn’t listen to his plea for rehab. This couldn’t happen to a nicer guy! (If you are worried about Bob, don’t be. He still gets that nice pension from our tax dollars. That […]
(sorry I have been very busy with work the past couple of days so there has been limited posting) This video is hilarious. Olbermann showed part of it tonight, and the entire thing is on YouTube. And I always hated the drivers here in Ohio when it snows. This makes me feel lucky.

Ted Strickland signed his second executive order today, creating an energy adviser to coordinate the state’s efforts to create jobs through fuel-saving initiatives. “One of the core principles of my Turnaround […]
All the arguments last year over the warrentless wiretapping, and all the spin by wingnuts to say it is legal has now come to an end: President George W. Bush has decided not to reauthorize the controversial domestic warrantless surveillance program for terrorism suspects and to put it under the authority of a secret special […]
Joe Biden, Carl Levin and Chuck Hagel are now working on their non-binding resolution to oppose the troop escalation. President George W. Bush on Wednesday tried to shore up support among fellow Republicans for increasing U.S. troops in Iraq but a bipartisan group of senators drew up a resolution opposing his plan. According to a […]
Throughout Bush’s professional life, he has ran companies into the ground and relied upon others to bail him out. Well his new business, The United States of America, is no different. He now expects the Democrats to bail his ass out on his failed fiscal policies: When he takes the House rostrum next week for […]
