There seems to be some confusion over whose meetings these town halls are. Silly me, I thought they were held for the constituents of the particular representative or senator holding them. Evidently, I was wrong, at least according to this organizer for HCAN at the town hall held by Jan Schakowsky (D-IL) in [...]

Rep. Carol Shea-Porter of NH went from being a citizen who protested at Town Halls, who was removed from a George Bush event, and disrupted her former congressperson’s town halls, to someone who has a constituent removed for asking a simple question. Yes, in just four years, Rep. Shea-Porter has done a complete 180. [...]

Killed in action the week before, the body of Sergeant First Class John C. Beale was returned to Falcon Field in Peachtree City, Georgia, just south of Atlanta, on June 11, 2009. Sergeant Beale was from Henry County and local police escorted the procession from Atlanta to the funeral home in McDonough, Henry County, Georgia. [...]

This was not the murder of a doctor, nor did it have anything to do with the issue of being pro/anti-choice. No, this time it was a young Army private, gunned down outside a military recruiting center in Little Rock, Arkansas, of all places. Another Army private was also shot, but is [...]

(Susan’s April 13th Note: I AM PISSED OFF. This essay is bumped up because, dammit, I need to restore my FOCUS on the ELEPHANTS in the room! While it’s fascinating to debate the pirate crisis, it is foremost VITAL to focus on the dangerous stories such as Obama’s power-hungry expansion of executive authority, known in [...]

BELOW THE FOLD: Tim Geithner’s astoundingly unAmerican and patently STUPID statement today sends shockwaves around the world, and among ALL Americans who have fought for this country!
Original: This is one of the HOTTEST VIDEOS out there! Enjoy (or become enraged!) … and perhaps you can think of another politician to whom such a [...]

Future Comrades, here’s yet another case of Obama supporters Enabled in The Overthrow Leading By Example. Let me know if you still think Barack “Fisa” Obama is about America as we know it. Kind of makes you feel all warm and fuzzy, free and safe doesn’t it?

A recent e-mail making the rounds suggests that Barack Obama’s superior education and intelligence mandates his choice as president over John McCain.
There are many things wrongs with using a single category as a decisional tool for a job so complicated as the presidency. Surely one’s experience, character, judgment displayed in the past, [...]

Theodore Roosevelt stated, “Patriotism means to stand by your country. It does not mean to stand behind the president or any other public official.” There is no greater disservice that can be given to the hardworking citizens of our great nation, than the attempt to silence people and to have their rights taken away or [...]

Joe Biden caused quite a stir when he equated paying higher taxes with patriotism. Biden told ABC’s Kate Snow:
“We want to take money and put it back in the pocket of middle-class people.” Snow asked: “Anybody making over $250,000…” Biden responded: “Is gonna pay more.” Snow: “Is going to pay more.” Biden: “You got it. [...]

“Cindy McCain, John McCain and Barack Obama pay their respects” is the caption of this Maisel/News photograph reproduced in an article that refers to the Presidential candidates’ visit to Ground Zero in Lower Manhattan on 11 SEPT 2008 as “an extraordinary show of unity 54 days from the election.”
Notice Michelle Obama was conspicuously absent from [...]

The New York Post learned today that Reverend Wright is actually Reverend Wrong. Apparently our “pious” Reverend Wright — who was the pastor and confidante of Barack Obama for 20+ years, baptized both of his daughters, married him and Michelle, and “blessed” their mansion — has been carrying on with a younger woman in Texas.

The Just Say No Deal/PUMA movement is evidence of a deep rift in the Democratic Party, one I believe the polls are not reflecting. Contrary to what the neo-liberals may say, the movement is not comprised of bitter old women — although many are bitter, many are women, and some are perhaps old. [...]

Earlier this week,
CW4 (Ret) Michael J. Durant issued a statement condemning Obama’s canceled troop visit. CW4 (Ret) Durant’s capture in Mogadishu was the subject of the movie, BlackHawk Down. And once more we hear from a voice in the past. A voice that understands the troops lying in beds in hospitals far from family [...]

Barack Obama used donations to refurbish and repaint his campaign plane, and has removed the flag of the United States from the tail of the plane. Reports Bonnie Kapp for Fox Embed:
[T]he plane that once had an American flag on its tail now sports the Obama “O.” “Change We Can Believe In” and the candidate’s [...]

I learned from personal experience–and earlier than most–the lengths to which Obama supporters will go to stifle opposition to their candidate. My exposure involved a Des Moines attorney, Gordon Fischer, who is a past chairperson of the Iowa Democratic Party. Perhaps it is no coincidence that he is [...]

The Democratic party needs a updated lesson in politics. I have never, ever seen anything such as what I have witnessed. I have only one recommendation, move away and separate the government policies and the military service of your opponent in your criticism, they don’t mix or belong in the grand scheme of things. It’s not a requirement [...]

By all accounts, I suppose the mainstream media will now take it upon themselves to wax rhapsodic over Senator Obama’s latest speech today in Independence, Missouri – this one on patriotism, just in time for the 4th of July festivities.
There are many noble sentiments expressed in that speech so I won’t take issue [...]

It’s really not surprising that some Obama supporters — with their blinkered, cult-like worship of Obama — have Ernesto “Che” Guevara side-by-side with their icon of Hope and Change.
Some attribute the use of Che’s image in Obama’s campaign offices to his naive young followers. The only Che they know comes from Hollywood, portrayed by Gael [...]
