The news is full of coverage of the anniversary of 9/11. You can change the channel without being reminded of what happened 10 years ago today. It was one of the most tragic days in American history and one none of us will ever forget. And while we spend the day remembering this anniversary, let’s […]
At a townhall in Cincinnati, Republican Congressman Steve Chabot decided that people should not be allowed to videotape the event and had a police officer seize the camera of citizens recording the public event of a public figure inside of a public building: What is even worse is the excuse given by Chabot’s spokesman: Schwartz […]
Yesterday’s outbreak of tornados that ripped through the south and left 173 people dead, with more deaths expected, is being called one of the deadliest outbreaks in American history. You wouldn’t know this though listening to MSNBC or FOX. Instead they are focused on other issues, like the royal wedding and the birth certificate. We […]
So a “best year” means having an oil rig explode, which cost 11 people their lives and lead to the biggest oil spill in American history? Transocean Ltd. gave its top executives bonuses for achieving the “best year in safety performance in our company’s history” — despite the explosion of its oil rig that […]
Things that stop and make you say OMFG: Former eBay executive Meg Whitman is defending $119 million in contributions she has made to her campaign for California governor — a personal spending rate that has now surpassed that of any other political candidate in American history.

Not really sure how I take this: During his three-decade legislative career, Schumer, 59, has developed a reputation as a razor-elbowed, shamelessly self-serving, media-addicted political monster.

Something else has changed in a big way this year – my reaction to the righties. Before I used to get pissed at their lies and hate they constantly spewed out, but now it’s funny, albeit in a very sad way. One example of this was the stimulus debate. Republicans opposed it hands down. Pretty […]
Laura Bush was “mad” over some of the critiques Obama had of her husband during the election. God forbid any jabs be thrown during a campaign – especially towards the incumbent President, who also happens to be one of the least popular in American history. I can’t wait for this walking, talking disaster to just […]
Really? So why hasn’t he shared his knowledge with the administration? Is he giving Osama some more time to hide? Remember what McCain had to say this past week? This is a clear choice that the American people have. I had the courage and the judgment to say I would rather lose a political campaign […]
John Roberts proves who he is worried about – corporations: Exxon Mobil, the giant oil corporation appearing before the Supreme Court yesterday, had earned a profit of nearly $40 billion in 2006, the largest ever reported by a U.S. company — but that’s not what bothered Roberts. What bothered the chief justice was that Exxon […]
