The next couple of days will be nothing but festivities for most, but for some it will be work. I’m not talking about right wingers who fear the end of days by the swearing in of Barack Obama as our 44th President, but I am talking about actual members of Obama’s new administration: {[}]lt;blockquote> Vans […]
He got the bailout to pass! Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) and his top aides took credit for building a winning bailout coalition – hours before the vote failed and stocks tanked. The rush to claim he had engineered a victory now looks like a strategic blunder that will prolong the McCain’s campaign’s difficulty in finding […]
Keith Olbermann did a great report last night on McCain’s top aides and their strong ties to Enron. I started talking about these connections back in March, it’s nice to see the mainstream media start to pick up on it, as it’s an important issue that needs brought up during the general election.

Matt Blunt was sued Wednesday by a former staff attorney who claims he was fired and defamed in retaliation for pointing out that Blunt’s administration was destroying e-mails in violation of Missouri’s open-records law.

Last night I went on a little rant about Colin Powell and why he waited so long to come forward with his complaints regarding Iraq. I said I felt that he had some “internal pressure” that may have prevented it and that should be an enormous alarming bell to Congress. Now those feelings are even […]
Bush has sure taken on a different tone this week. He has been more forthcoming in his speeches and started agreeing with Senate on controversial legislation (the torture ban). He even accepted responsibility for faulty intelligence this week which lead to the Iraq war. The question is – why? Perhaps you have to look no […]
Why are the Republicans engaging in a smear campaign against Democrats by stating they are trying to smear Karl Rove? Well finally we can say “the shoe is on the other footâ€ÂÂ. In the last couple weeks we have seen an increasing campaign on Republicans taking to the airwaves to discredit the Democrats demand for […]
