Last week John McCain flip-flopped on the environment by calling for opening up drilling on the coasts of the U.S. Now he wants to appear to be concerned about the environment again by offering $300 million to any person/company who can develop a new battery that could power cars.Of course that $300 million would have […]
You can watch it live here. From the opening questions, I can kind of see how the Republicans are starting to frame this. They are going on the premise that Robert Novak leaked Plame’s name. The question to these Republicans should be, “what was Robert Novak’s security clearance at the time of the article?” We […]
Now that Bush is drinking the McCain kool-aid of offshore drilling, does that mean we will see our old gas prices tomorrow, if Congress lifted the ban today? Hell no. This is another carrot that the Republicans are dangling in front of the face of Americans. True Bush is just helping guarantee that those coastal […]
McClellan has agreed to testify to Congress about the CIA leak case. I bet there are a ton of “oh shits” being heard around D.C. tonight.
We are conducting a “crusade”: At the western entrance to the Iraqi city of Fallujah Tuesday, Muamar Anad handed his residence badge to the U.S. Marines guarding the city. They checked to be sure that he was a city resident, and when they were done, Anad said, a Marine slipped a coin out of his […]

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 […]
That is something that George Bush has to be reminded about time and time again. So you think the Democrats would get it – right? Not if you are Hillary Clinton. Last week she said she would nuke Iran if they attacked Israel, or a number of other Middle East countries. Last night she again […]
So Bush is supposed to make a big speech today on climate change. The problem is he still doesn’t want to do anything: Bush will speak forcefully about concerns he has over a possible rush to address the Earth’s warming through a hodgepodge of regulations under existing federal laws such as the Clean Air Act […]
