Since Bob Ney pleaded guilty Friday, we now have a felon sitting on the United States House of Representatives. Now he has said he will resign in the future and the Republicans have vowed to vote him out, but that will not happen until after their recess, which means Ney will continue to draw a […]
Since this whole Foley thing opened up, I have realized that the Republicans are right. They are right when they say the problem with Foley is his being gay. Of course the reason for me agreeing with the Republicans is probably not what they would expect. For years it has been “rumored” that Foley was […]
This is the mess in Iraq that the Democrats, especially Jack Murtha, have been warning about: Iraq will ask the United Nations to end immunity from local law for U.S. troops, the government said on Monday, as the U.S. military named five soldiers charged in a rape-murder case that has outraged Iraqis.

Fitzgerald gave one of the longest press conferences I think I have ever witnessed. Saying that, it was also very interesting. He could not get into many details of the case and left many of us wondering what is still to come but he did let us in on what is known. He started off […]
