The Democrats want to give the citizens of Washington D.C. the basic democratic right the rest of the country enjoys – representation in Congress, but Bush is ready to put a stop to that: The White House on Tuesday threatened to veto legislation giving the District of Columbia a vote in the House, possibly prolonging […]
The flack between Sharpton and Obama is nothing more than that – flack. Kos posted earlier about Sharpton’s criticism of Obama and I have to agree. Obama is out talking about his anti-war stance, so why did he support Joe Lieberman? Lieberman has been out blasting Democrats for trying to stop the war and even […]
A heads up. Keith will be giving a special comment on Countdown tonight: Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice urged the Democratic-controlled Congress not to interfere in the conduct of the Iraq war and suggested President Bush would defy troop withdrawal legislation. “I can’t imagine a circumstance in which it’s a good thing that their flexibility […]

Millions of commercial Web sites and personal blogs would be required to report illegal images or videos posted by their users or pay fines of up to $300,000, if a new proposal in the U.S. Senate came into law. The legislation, […]
So much of this week was focused on the leaked NIE and the Democrats considered it a major trump on the Republicans in the home stretch of the election season. With all of that, who could have ever imagined the tri-fecta that was given to the Democrats today? Mark Foley has been the hot story […]
Bush will do whatever it takes to protect his rich buddies: The federal government is moving to eliminate the jobs of nearly half of the lawyers at the Internal Revenue Service who audit tax returns of some of the wealthiest Americans, specifically those who are subject to gift and estate taxes when they transfer parts […]
Two years later and we are still trying to get to the bottom of exactly what happened at Abu Gharib and who all was actually involved.
