When you preach the politics of divisiveness, you end up with stories like this: LONGWOOD, Fla. — The home of a Central Florida Republican headquarters manager was shot up and damaged over his support of Sen. John McCain, the man told police. Rog Coverely said several pellets pierced his Longwood home. Coverely showed several spiderwebbed-holes […]
A new Reuters/C-Span/Zogby poll, which was released today, has some very good news in it: With less than two weeks before the November 4 election, Obama leads McCain 52 percent to 40 percent among likely voters in the latest three-day tracking poll, which had a margin of error of 2.9 points. The biggest part of […]
I’m still in catch up mode from being offline all last week, but I have to chime in on this whole Palin’s email account being hacked thingy.

So Sarah Palin is back in Alaska today to see her son, who is off to fight in Iraq. She has been touting this since her debut 13 days ago. We all knew the date, because she told it to us. Why is she letting the whole world know the date of her son’s deployment? […]
It’s being reported that Lieberman is on the short list for McCain’s VP pick.

Following up on a post last week about Rudy defending his decision to move the emergency operations center into WTC 7, we now have more proof of people warning him it would be a bad idea: The New York Police Department produced a detailed analysis in 1998 opposing plans by the city to locate its […]
Rudy is making up excuses for his failures on 9/11. First up is the radio system: But there’s one key detail he won’t clearly explain: Why firefighters on 9/11 had the same faulty radios that failed them in 1993, when the World Trade Center was first attacked. When asked about the issue Thursday at an […]
Another page from George Orwell’s 1984 comes to being in George Bush’s America. Ted Rall’s has a great article up explaining it: –“This is not a crime about thought,” says the assistant U.S. attorney. Then what is it? Mahmud Faruq Brent, a 30-year-old D.C. taxi driver, is about to spend the next 15 years behind […]
This is getting old. Ann Coulter is out on our public airwaves using a defense any 5 year old would use (and she is suppose to be a lawyer?). That defense is simple – “Well Bill Maher did it”. Wow Ann – if Bill Maher jumped off a bridge, would you? So let’s look at […]
