PRAISE BE JESUS! Today we saw a miracle right before our eyes. Bob Novak was healed on national television. The poor agile man who has been confined to walk with his cane, no longer needs it. The lord works in mysterious ways and today we were witness to his powers. People are focusing on James […]
This week our President started his historic five week vacation at the ranch in Crawford, Texas. The term historic is used in a rhetorical sense considering this is the longest vacation any President has taken, and only 6 months into his second term, he is quickly on his way to break the record of total […]
Last night on the Daily Show with Jon Stewart, Senator Joe Biden was the guest. Stewart asked Biden about his potential run for the White House in 2008. Biden said he is in the process of going out and seeing if he has the potential to win. This does not come as a shock since […]
First it was “we need an extension†now it is “we will be done on timeâ€ÂÂ. This came out of the council in Iraq that is authoring the new constitution. If they can’t agree on how much time is needed to complete the constitution, then how can we expect them to agree on an actual […]
Republican Jean Schmidt won Ohio’s second congressional district. The final count was 59132 (52%) vs 55151 (48%). Even though Paul Hackett lost, there is still cause for celebration.

Leaked emails from two former military prosecutors […]
As Ohioans take to the polls today to cast their vote for either a veteran of the Iraq war or a person knee deep in the Ohio coin scandal, we learn that seven more soldiers have died in Iraq and now the total of US soldiers lost is at 1800. The fact that this insurgency […]
In 1998 Bill Clinton made an appointment to the United Nations. He appointed Richard Holbrooke to be the diplomatic voice of the United States. For 14 months the Republicans in Senate continued to block Holbrooke’s appointment in what became “partisan bickering†Holbrooke was offered the recess appointment during this time, however he declined it. Holbrooke […]
In a sad farewell to diplomacy, today George Bush did what he promised. He has installed John Bolton as our ambassador to the UN. The man who not only lied to Senate but also has unquestionably been abusive to subordinates is now our man sitting at the head of diplomacy. Bush has taken the stance […]
The Republicans are good at shouting out one line. “Support Our Troopsâ€ÂÂ. They make it sound as though that is a Republican only stance, when in reality it is something a large majority of Americans do regardless of party affiliation. So why is it then that the Republicans are so supportive of our troops yet […]
