Surprise, surprise - the Senate has FINALLY grown a backbone, and voted 83-7 (and this is not a big surprise - both senators from IL voted against this measure, as well as Hillary Clinton’s replacement - a disappointment) to cut off Housing funds to ACORN. It took the exposure of how ACORN works [...]

We have been exposed to an education lately on International Law and the Rule of Law. Everyone has been following the torture memos and some of us have a quaint understanding of how the U.S. signing the treaty at the Geneva Convention forcibly influenced laws that we were required, by the treaty, to add [...]

A “Savior-based” economy. Well, Heaven knows, Obama has certainly been set up as The Messiah, so it makes sense that this would be the kind [...]

Going through my paper this morning there was a podium picture of [...]

Ok, now, I know that the Dems said they would not seat any appointee by Blago before Burris was appointed, so I don’t really think this is about race. But, I don’t think it looks good to reject a 71 year old, experienced African American candidate for the US Senate. I feel bad for the [...]

Some of us were having some chuckles over the fact that Judas Richardson got his due. Now I know everyone is loving this and fully expects him to just be the first of many. But we also realized that we don’t want this scum riding under our bus.

Update: Here’s yet another, new Ohio vote fraud situation:
Ohio’s first-term Secretary of State, Jennifer Brunner, a Democrat who replaced the infamous Republican Ken Blackwell, has filed an “emergency appeal” with the U.S. Supreme Court. According to the news report I just listened to, when emergency appeals are filed, only one justice reviews the appeal. [...]

Breaking News from Mark Halperin and The Page. Governor Ed Rendell tells the PolitikerPA:
“I’m going to cast my ballot for her, and then the moment I cast my vote, I’m going to continue to enthusiastically support Sen. Obama. It’s going to be a good release for all of us.”
He said this in his interview with [...]

2:40 p.m. PST UPDATE: I jumped the gun. The poll shows neither Obama or Clinton faring well against McCain — both are within the margin of error of losing to McCain. HOWEVER, I firmly believe that Californians would — with enough campaigning there by Hillary — be more included, come November, to [...]
