John Cole reminds us of a harsh reality when it comes to the little $15 billion jobs bill: What is fifteen billion? A couple weeks of unemployment benefits? Not to go all Everett Dirksen and everything, but we ***LOST*** almost that much in Iraq, and no one flinched. But $15 billion is going to remedy […]
There has been all this talk from the fat of how he wants “Obama to fail”. Well now that the government has such a large stake in General Motors, the fat one is calling for a boycott of General Motors. Bob points out the irony here: Just a couple of weeks ago, the wingnuts were […]
In a defeat to Sarah Palin, a judge has thrown out a lawsuit filed by Alaskan Republican lawmakers trying to dismiss the troopergate investigation. We are only a couple weeks from the report being released, so things are going to get interesting now.
More like this one please. Obama now leads McCain 52%-43% according to a new Washington Post-ABC News Poll. What I really like is the fact we are now getting into the “safer” polls (as I like to call them). I ignored the polls pretty much until this week. The main reason is that the campaigns […]
I posted about a judge ordering Wikileaks offline a couple weeks ago. It was certainly a move that seemed to align us with China, Iran and numerous other nations we claim to dislike. Now news has emerged that the same judge may be planning to reopen the case and re-examine his decision.
That is essentially what new legislation that passed by a landslide (409-2) last week says: The U.S. House of Representatives on Wednesday overwhelmingly approved a bill saying that anyone offering an open Wi-Fi connection to the public must report illegal images including “obscene” cartoons and drawings–or face fines of up to $300,000. That broad definition […]
Interesting how this changes every other day: Sectarian violence in Iraq has become “self-sustaining,” increasing the challenge of stabilizing the country, the top U.S. intelligence official said on Friday. “Violence between the Sunnis and Shia has become self-sustaining and has spread out to a wider range of … groups and actors,” said John Negroponte, the […]
A couple weeks ago Michelle Malkin had a post about being attacked by “cyberjihadis”. This is what she said about it: I greatly appreciated all the blogosphere’s support when the cyberjihadis took down my site down over the Mohammed Cartoons. If you’re down, please send me an e-mail and I’ll keep a list here of […]
Bush was in damage control last night when he spoke to us from the Oval Office and now it looks as though he may have caused even more damage than before (A sure sign Rove must be under enormous stress). First off Bush’s promise to send 6,000 National Guard troops to the border. He is […]
Tom Delay appeared this morning on Stephanopoulos and he has not lost his touch when it comes to lying. Besides accusing Democrats of being more corrupt than Republicans, he made one assertion that is a flat out lie. Rough Transcript: Delay: The Democrats are going back to their constituents and urging them not to sign […]
