T wo weeks after losing, Marilyn Musgrave is no where to be found: Two weeks after the brutal loss, Musgrave still hasn’t called her opponent to concede or to congratulate the victor, as is not only textbook but also mannerly to do. Moreover, Musgrave’s ill manners bleed into her own team. Rumor has it she […]
I posted about the story of a bus full of school kids chanting “assassinate Obama” in Idaho when it first happened a couple of weeks ago. It has gained some national attention, and now the mayor of the local town has apologized for what happened. That’s a nice gesture, but then I read further in […]
It’s no secret that the Liberal blogosphere helped propel the Democrat out of the abyss of minority status in our government. Could the right wing blogosphere do the same for Republicans? Well if they continue following the path of idiocracy and taking push polls as gospel, then that won’t be likely unless America gets hit […]
NY Attorney General Andrew Cuomo has been at the front of the battle when it comes to CEOs receiving their golden parachutes, while their companies lay off and ask for government handouts, and he isn’t backing down at all: Calling the layoffs of 53,000 people “disturbing,” Cuomo says top executives shouldn’t get bonuses while investors, […]

Chris Matthews like the rest of us have had enough of the Republicans trying to say that this is still a center-right country. He finally called out GOP talking head Todd Harris on this crap being pushed by the GOP – which is another example that they do not listen to the people. (h/t Cesca)
Now that the Democrats control more seats they also get to reshape things in the Senate (via AmericaBLOG): Senate Democratic leaders plan to cut Republican committee seats to reflect the new balance of power in the upper chamber, according to Democratic aides. Republicans will lose at least one seat on most committees and may lose […]
I would love to see Obama approach Paul Krugman, a Nobel Peace Prize recipient in economy, and offer him an advisory position to the administration. Here’s part of Krugman’s latest: Right now, many commentators are urging Mr. Obama to think small. Some make the case on political grounds: America, they say, is still a conservative […]
This video is from MSNBC this morning when they were talking about the revelations about Sarah Palin. Some new stuff has now been released. One biggie is the fact that she didn’t want to appear on the stage with Republicans John Sununu and Jeb Bradley because they didn’t share her views. Working together – not […]
