Sorry Mr. President – It Isn't Enough!

Politics

The man of “yes we can” seems more and more like “ehh I really don’t care”. That’s the feeling you get when you hear today’s big news from the campaign trail, in which President Obama rolled out his new “rural job initiative”: At the White House Rural Economic Forum in Peosta, Iowa, Tuesday, President Obama […]

Ignoring The Issues Won’t Make For A Valuable Debate

Society

Let’s face it, America needs a real debate about its society. We need to start talking about the violence plaguing our nation. It doesn’t matter if the violence occurs at some random work place, in a school or at a town hall meeting being held by a member of Congress, we need to have a […]

Putting The Freak In Freaky

Politics

The ick factor has just reached a whole new level: Add this to list of bizarre and unusual campaign trail antics: at last week’s Tea Party Express rally in Phoenix, Maricopa County Sheriff Joe Arpaio welcomed Sarah Palin with a pair of pink underwear. “I just got done welcoming Sarah Palin to our County. Had […]

Will The Democrats Seize On Barton's Comments Yesterday.

Politics

While House rules prevent Democrats from using the video of Joe Barton yesterday on the campaign trail, they can still hammer away on his apology to BP for the “shakedown” Obama did to them. This statement by Barton is a national treasure for Democrats. They can run simple commercials telling what he said and pointing […]

More Evidence Americans Are Finally "Getting It" When It Comes To Offshore Drilling

Science

A new ABC/Washington Post poll echoes the results of the CBS poll earlier this week – Americans are waking up on offshore drilling: Just a quarter of Americans back expanding offshore drilling in the wake of the BP oil spill, and most fault federal regulators for the environmental disaster in the Gulf of Mexico, according […]

Could This Be The Brilliance That Is Obama?

Politics

Obama’s announcement yesterday of opening offshore drilling was met with strong opposition, and not just from the left, but even the right. But what if there is something more sinister at work here? Chances are that Congress won’t go for the plan, so there really is no chance of it surviving without Republican support, yet […]

Republicans Don’t Give A Shit About The Country – Only Their Party

Politics

I’ve been saying it all along and now Mitch McConnell is validating it: Before the health care fight, before the economic stimulus package, before President Obama even took office, Senator Mitch McConnell, the Republican minority leader, had a strategy for his party: use his extensive knowledge of Senate procedure to slow things down, take advantage […]

Unity Won’t Happen If Republicans Keep Lying

Politics

Yesterday on Meet the Press John Boehner continued the same old line that President Obama was the most liberal member of the U.S. Senate. He also seems to be throwing out the idea of ever working together: MR. GREGORY:  Does he have a point? REP. BOEHNER:  No.  If, if you think about what I said, […]

We now see a movement developing to get Ed Schultz to hang up the microphone and hit the campaign trail. Today Bob Fertik over at democrats.com started an online petition to draft Ed. I have been critical of some of […]
