I have spent all 38 years of my live in the greater Cincinnati area. As matter of fact, 36 of those years have been within about a 15 mile radius. We never used to have our power go out, but that has changed. Now it is happening on a constant basis. Last night’s cause was […]
First they take the lead from their king: (h/t Bob) Then they eliminate the key facts: Only the stimulus package to be approved this week, the $700 billion Troubled Asset Relief Program passed four months ago and $168 billion in tax cuts and rebates approved in 2008 have been voted on by lawmakers. The remaining […]
The Republican Party is totally broken and this could lead to a huge divide in the party that will be so much fun to watch. The stimulus bill is causing this divide. While congressional GOP is fighting it, the Republican governors are pushing for it. As matter of fact the governors pushing for it is […]
Another idiotic idea from the religious right is debunked yet again: Teenagers who pledge to remain virgins until marriage are just as likely to have premarital sex as those who do not promise abstinence and are significantly less likely to use condoms and other forms of birth control when they do, according to a study […]

Michelle Obama was shaken by the vituperative crowds and the […]
I believe this is a very serious question we must start asking and the foundation is starting to be laid for exactly this. Here’s McCain telling a reporter that “voter fraud” could cause him to lose Florida: That is a dangerous tone to set in our political climate. McCain seems to be ignoring a slew […]
The Answer – committees that John McCain does not sit on. Chris Dodd, who chairs one of those committees, told Rachael Maddow tonight that Obama has been in constant with him to check on the progress and offer ideas. McCain has not been in touch at all. Just yesterday McCain told reporters he hadn’t looked […]
But I thought John McCain said raising taxes on oil companies would cause them to reduce output and do more harm than good? Apparently not: The increase backed by the Republican vice presidential nominee will, at current prices, raise oil revenue to $11 billion this year — almost twice what the state needs to fund […]
It seems like the general consensus amongst the pundits regarding John’s big moment is the same feeling I had watching it – yawn. He didn’t lay out a single policy, and instead stayed on his “change” platform. Funny – it seems like every Republican has said that since I can remember. As matter of fact […]
