(updated and bumped) Newsweek is reporting that D.C. power attorney Eric Holder is being tapped for Attorney General. (Update 1) NBC news is now reporting that Holder has accepted the position. Once confirmation comes out from the transition team, I will put him in the Cabinet 44 section. (Update 2) Via The Washington Independent, here […]
More than 130 million people voted yesterday, and a lot of ballots are still being counted. That is giving us an estimated 64% of voter turnout yesterday. Not only did Obama win, but America won with so many citizens now engaging in their democracy.
Just a quick thought. What would you call it when a state takes the huge profits from their key industry and gives it back to the common citizens? Sounds like “redistributing the wealth” to me. Also sounds like what Palin brags about doing in Alaska with the oil company profits. So Obama talked about it, […]
McCain’s campaign is all pissy because YouTube is pulling their campaign videos that have DMCA complaints: After seeings its videos repeatedly removed from YouTube, John McCain’s campaign on Monday told the Google-owned video site that its copyright infringement policies are stringent to the point of stifling free speech, and that its lawyers need to revamp […]
Andrea Mitchell was on Morning Joe blaming Barack Obama for the bailout failing. Her argument is that he didn’t bring the Congressional Black Caucus on board to vote for it. She gets noticeably mad about this, despite the fact that Democrats delivered more votes than promise and the fact that the CBC was dead set […]
That’s exactly what the GOP is planning to do. They are hoping everyone suffers a sudden case of amnesia over the deadly response to Katrina and this will make everything better.

John McCain. The private gathering featured Carly Fiorina, Mr. McCain’s top economic adviser, and took place at the […]
Actually he said: JOHN MCCAIN: “Now we’ve got the cables. We’ve got talk radio. We’ve got the bloggers. I hate the bloggers. We’ve got all kinds of sources of information.” So he hates all of us who blog, and most likely the people who also follow the blogs. John McCain hates citizens of this country? […]
Because it might increase how long the war goes on. That’s what the Bush administration is telling Congress. Isn’t it sad that at a time when record numbers of Americans are losing their homes, our President is worried about aiding another country and not our own citizens? That should be considered a crime against the […]
24 more hours and primary season will be over here in Ohio! I have received 23 calls since 8:00 am this morning – all automated saying “support my candidate”. A majority have been for McCain. You think these fucking morons would look at a voter list and see I am a registered Democrat, but no. […]
