(bumped up from yesterday, about the historic legislation for women!) As Lilly Ledbetter approached her retirement after working as a Goodyear plant supervisor for many years, someone slipped her a disturbing fact. Her male colleagues had been making far more than she was. She sued. A jury found Goodyear guilty, but the Supreme Court threw [...]

It was only a matter of time before the losses embedded in our banking system caught up and [...]

That men like James Carville do not see why blatant disrespect for women in this manner is a problem. I am speaking, of course, of the Favreau photograph. You know, this one: Of course, the former Romney spokesman wasn’t much better, but he did not go off like Carville did about how this is a [...]

I will admit that, given the current dynamics at work in the economy and the markets, I have become somewhat numbed as to the magnitude of some of the developments. Many of the highlights that I will offer from yesterday’s news would be enormous stories in and of themselves. Taken collectively, they do become overwhelming [...]

Yes, it seems that the chickens are starting to come home to roost for some Obama worshippers, uh, I mean, supporters. Those of us using the analytical portion of our brains knew that Obama’s hype was too good to be true, but apparently, these workers for Obama are learning a harsh reality – he used [...]

I’ll tell you what Greed is. Greed is coveting and then taking what somebody else earned and owns that you didn’t earn and don’t own. That’s greed. In some quarters, it’s called burglary. Sometimes it’s called mugging. Other times it’s called extortion. But it’s still thievery by any other name. The San Diego-Union Times has [...]

Reprinted from Huffington Post with the express permission of Lady de Rothschild. Lynn will open today’s “Closing Arguments for McCain/Palin” conference call at 5:00 p.m. ET. …………………………………………………. In a stunning about face this week, Barack Obama announced that “I’ve got an economic plan that is similar to Bill Clinton’s.” On its face, this would mean [...]

Mark Cunningham’s article Why Bam’s Flailing, in the September 10 New York Post, makes clear why Obama’s numbers are slipping and his solid ground has turned to shifting sands. Simply put, Axelrod’s main tactic of stirring up class warfare and playing the race-card in a divide-and-conquer strategy doesn’t work on the national stage. Cunningham writes: [...]

Tonight at 9pm ET on Bud White’s Hidden Agenda: An interview with James Lee Burke. He’s been called “the Faulkner of crime fiction.” James Lee Burke’s novels are more than just brilliantly-plotted thrillers; they’re lyrical explorations of the American soul. He’s won the Edgar Award twice, been nominated for a Pulitzer, and seen three of [...]

During the opening night of the Olympics, John McCain broadcast the following ad, titled “Painful”: I was struck by the high quality of the ad. It tweaks Obama’s celebrity status, and then unleashes a full-throttle class attack on Obama. “Life in the spotlight must be grand,” intones a woman’s voice, dropping her voice off for [...]

This is from “LaborPains.org.” Mon AM Update: I am told by a reliable source that the AFL-CIO fully expected Obama to appear in person. The AFL-CIO has never been treated this way, ever, by a presidential candidate. Now back to the original blog post: The title tells the story: Stood Up and Hung Up Then [...]

What He Wants Us To Believe Barack Obama has made recent claims indicating pay equity for women would be a top priority if he were elected President. Sounds great. In fact, it might compel some to seriously consider his candidacy. Don’t be fooled. What we’ve seen of Mr. Obama is a candidacy based on opportunism. [...]

Amid the chorus of “nothing to see here, move along” flock of bloggers writing ho-hum responses to today’s Washington Post story, there are a few who are thinking deeper: Our TexasDarlin pointed out the favorable treatment the Obamas received compared to the “neglected slums” of their impoverished neighbors in unimaginably horrific “public” housing that Obama [...]
