Wednesday, July 25th, 2007

When Bernie Sanders is against you, you know you have a problem.
Virtually all of Sen. Russ Feingold’s Democratic colleagues share his displeasure with President Bush.
But so far, only a handful seem prepared to even consider supporting his push for a nonbinding measure to censure Bush — an action that is forcing Democrats to choose [...]

Isn’t this exciting?

Specter to probe Supreme Court decisions.

Wednesday, July 25th, 2007

I guess someone thinks a man’s word is everything. I know you’re going to say that they’re not the first to change after being confirmed and you’re right but that means they’re all alike. I don’t believe that.

Wednesday, July 25th, 2007

Presidential candidate John Edwards’ wife Elizabeth is giving up tangerines to do her part to help global warming.
The politics of global warming got very concrete, and oddly difficult, in a meeting with local environmentalists in the coastal town of McClellanville today, where Elizabeth Edwards raised in passing the importance of relying on locally-grown fruit.

On Base, a Plea to Give Each Death Its Due

Wednesday, July 25th, 2007

Are you kidding me? This has got to be wrong.
Well people, if you want something outrageous to comment on, this story is it.

Wednesday, July 25th, 2007

Almost a week ago I read this article in the Washington Times but, except for other blogs, I didn’t see it anywhere else. None of the major newspapers except the Washington Times picked up the story.

Omar Fadhil of Iraq the model has written a post at Pajamas Media detailing his experiences while travelling to Amman, Jordan.
