So I ended up watching the Saddleback forum last night. I wasn’t sure if I would or not. To me this was a rather large insult against our nation and founding fathers, a view shared by even people of very deep faith. So what did I think? Well it wasn’t bad. I liked the format, […]
One of the Republican crime family finishes his sentence: Former congressman Bob Ney of Ohio has been released from a halfway house in Cincinnati after serving a sentence in connection with a public corruption scandal. Advertisement Ney has served nearly a year-and-a-half of his original two-and-a-half-year prison sentence. The sentence was reduced after he completed […]
The Constitutional damage of George W. Bush continues: The Justice Department has proposed a new domestic spying measure that would make it easier for state and local police to collect intelligence about Americans, share the sensitive data with federal agencies and retain it for at least 10 years. The proposed changes would revise the federal […]
“Buy American, Vote Obama” is the new theme that the Obama campaign is rolling out in Pennsylvania this weekend. I am glad to see the return of “Buy American” in our political discussion. I remember back in the 80’s people around here drove about an hour over to Indiana to buy American at a store […]
A rap group called East Coast avengers has released a song called “Kill Bill O’Reilly”. Wired has the song available (towards the bottom of the article). Already some on the right are complaining about it, but is this any worse than when they call for killing Muslims, reporters or judges?
John McCain: My friends, we have reached a crisis, the first probably serious crisis internationally since the end of the Cold War. This is an act of aggression. McCain last month: McCAIN: The fact is we had four years of failed policy. We were losing. We were losing the war in Iraq. The consequences of […]
Bush speaking today about the Georgia conflict: “Bullying and intimidation are not acceptable ways to conduct foreign policy in the 21st century.” Not acceptable unless your name is George Bush. His foreign policy has been based on nothing but “bullying and intimidation”. Just ask Iraq.
The blogosphere has been talking for days about McCain acting like he is President when it comes to the Georgia conflict. From having press conferences about the conflict, to sending a “delegation” to the embattled country, the media has acted like McCain was just doing the job of a candidate. No more. Today’s Washington Post […]
By they, I mean the Russians: A top Russian general said Friday that Poland’s agreement to accept a U.S. missile interceptor base exposes the ex-communist nation to attack, possibly by nuclear weapons, the Interfax news agency reported. The statement by Gen. Anatoly Nogovitsyn is the strongest threat that Russia has issued against the plans to […]
John McCain is being sued by Jackson Browne for using Browne’s song “Running on Empty” in a campaign ad without permission. This is trend among Republicans. Perhaps they need to be asked why they don’t respect intellectual property rights.
