Congress has just approved an additional $70 billion for the wars. Did everyone enjoy the fight the Democrats put up for it? I sure did (end of sarcasm).

Time for the RNC to find a new head: Mel Martinez, the public face of the Republican National Committee as its general chairman, announced he was stepping down from his post on Friday after serving only 10 months. “I believe that our future as a party and nation is bright and I have every intention […]

Not a pardon, but rather he commuted the sentence. That means no jail for Scooter. Bush says he felt the punishment was too harsh. So is that saying that lying about a blow job is a worse crime than lying under oath regarding the outing of a CIA agent? It appears so. Bush just handed […]

I left for the beach on May 18 and returned on May 28. During that period of a little over a week, we lost 59 soldiers in Iraq, including at least 8 on Memorial Day: At least eight U.S. soldiers were killed in restive Diyala province north of Baghdad on Memorial Day, two of the […]

Looks like the hammer, Tom Delay, forgot to report some financial contributions and out of the goodness of his heart (lots of sarcasm there) decided to take corrective action on it. Rep.
