You may recall that when Bush was president, it was like pulling teeth trying to find out just who had visited the White House. Let’s just say he dug in his heels a bit on releasing that information. Maybe it had something to do with Cheney’s “secret” Energy Meeting, who knows, but it [...]

That is a question I have asked myself time and time again since Obama took office on a number of issues, including expanding the Faith Based Initiatives, or my fave, the incredibly unConstitutional “Prolonged Detention” of American Citizens, holding them in custody indefinitely without charges.
Turns out I am not the only one who [...]

That’s President Serene Jones, of Union Theological Seminary speaking. She continued, “Justice is what love looks like when it takes social form.”
Wow. This is but one of the profound statements made by Dr. Jones throughout the course of Bill Moyers’ “Journal: Faith and Social Justice,” which also included Dr. Cornel West, formerly [...]

Today, Obama is holding a Forum on Health Care. According to the article:
The nation can’t afford to wait for the economy to recover before tackling out-of-control medical costs, President Barack Obama is telling some of the most powerful players in the health care reform debate.
“If we want to create jobs and rebuild our economy, [...]

(bumped up Tuesday morning with significant breaking news on the new Stanford scandal, and the D.C. insiders involved)
Update: After Bernie Madoff, it appears that the next largest fraudulent investment scheme is centered on an entity known as Stanford Financial. This company has offices in Houston, TX and operated an offshore bank in the Caribbean. While [...]

The promise – “I am running to tell the lobbyists in Washington that their days of setting the agenda are over. They have not funded my campaign. They won’t work in my White House.” ~Obama during the primary
Translation – Past Presidents allowed corrupt Lobbyists to set the agenda and place corporate greed and selfish needs [...]

Yet Another Barack Obama Baloney Alert!
Barack Obama had the Audacity Of Mendacity to pimp this brazen lie today. Lucky for him, his ears don’t grow every time he lies:
“Let’s be clear who John McCain is fighting for — he’s not fighting for Joe the Plumber, he’s fighting for Joe the Hedge Fund Manager,”
Increasingly arrogant because [...]

Somehow I doubt the ‘bot blogs will be running this video of Barack Obama on his close ties to lobbyists and all the money he’s taken from the boys on Wall Street. Nor will the mainstream media. You know what: They need a new acronym. MSM is old. Help me. How about MOB? [...]

Give Barack some credit. He has been in the forefront of one bipartisan group on the Hill–i.e., those who have raked in the most dough from two bankrupt mortgage firms. There are twenty five members of congress-16 -Democrats and 9 Republicans–who have some explaining to do about the unfolding Wall Street debacle that [...]

Last night, I posted the new McCain ad that exposes an Obama adviser, Franklin Raines, who reaped millions from Fannie Mae and gets a guaranteed lifetime pension of $110,000 per month after he left amidst a huge mismanagement scandal and, according to the Washington Post, “perpetrated ‘extensive financial fraud’” at Fannie Mae.
Now that’s damn serious. [...]

Our nation’s financial crisis is dominating the news today — and it is in these times of crisis that we find out what our leaders are made of.
It is highly ironic that Barack Obama chose to respond to today’s shocking news by attacking McCain while McCain/Palin are proposing a reform of federal regulations. Obama [...]
