Again some more loving from Bush for our vets: A top White House official weighed in Thursday with renewed veto threats against rival House and Senate Iraq funding bills, saying add-ons for veterans and the unemployed were unacceptable. Most significantly, Jim Nussle, director of the White House budget office, said that a plan by House […]
By having his agencies screw up the terrorist watch list: A new Justice Department audit shows that for nearly three years the FBI gave outdated, incomplete and error-riddled data about terror suspects to be added to the government’s watchlist. Overall, the audit by the department’s inspector general gives the FBI a mixed review for its […]
Ickes is a member of the DNC and a senior adviser to the Clinton Campaign. Last year he voted to strip FL and MI of their delegates. Now he wants them back in. Why? Here’s the reason: Ickes explained that his different position essentially is due to the different hats he wears as both a […]

When I think of the problems surrounding our country; Iraq, healthcare, FEMA, energy crisis, immigration, record level deficits – just to name a few, […]
While Bush is out to try and control the damage he has done lately, he is still making mistakes.

His defense has me really ticked off: “Any time Washington passes a new law, sometimes the transition […]
I am going to try and discredit the myth being told by the right regarding the response of last week’s disaster.
