Here’s John McCain yesterday saying that “in the 21st century, nations don’t invade other nations”. Interesting comment. I thought we invaded Iraq and Afghanistan in the 21st century. I guess it could be another senior moment. Speaking of senior moments, here’s a pop quiz. Who is President of the United States? Apparently McCain thinks he […]
Talk about hitting the nail on the head: On January 20th 2009, either the president of the United States will be a man who used to snort coke to ease his blues, or the First Lady will be a former drug addict who stole from charity to get her next fix. In this presidential campaign, […]
The one time pick of George Bush to be one of the top judiciaries in the nation did not show up for her subpoena today, paving the way for contempt charges. Let’s not forget George Bush in those charges either, who ordered Miers not to show up. As Josh posted yesterday: 18 U.S.C. Sec. 1505 […]
I had a feeling the news of Cheney’s saying he is not part of the executive branch would start a fire storm. I just had no idea it would be this big. Rahm Emanuel is showing a pair and ready to really go after Cheney in a way that sounds perfectly legal: Following Vice President […]
John Edwards: Two years after his hopes for a Democratic takeover of the White House were narrowly dashed, former vice presidential nominee John Edwards said Thursday that he is making another run at the presidency.

The Dixie Chicks new album, Taking The Long Way is due out tomorrow and along with it comes a nice article in Time about the controversy that put the Dixie Chicks in the national spolight as a strong anti-war voice (excepts from Huffington Post): “I apologized for disrespecting the office of the President. But I […]
OK sitting here thinking about the revelation today of Bush authorizing the leak I have come up with something. Back when it was being reported that Cheney authorized the leak, one argument was regarding the declassification of information and if the vice-president has that power. It is clear that the President does in fact have […]
With all the talk recently about Cheney ordering Libby to disclose the identity of Valerie Plame, the timing of this story is very relevant. The unmasking of covert CIA officer Valerie Plame Wilson by White House officials in 2003 caused significant damage to U.S. national security and its ability to counter nuclear proliferation abroad, RAW […]
I didn’t know the American Bar Association was into polling but I find the results very interesting and possibly the most accurate to date: According to a poll commissioned by the American Bar Association and released today, 52 percent of respondents said that in the fight against terrorism, the President of the United States alone […]
