  • Voters Losing Patience with Dems in Congress

    Glad I’m not the only one. In a Reuters dispatch on June 18, Democratic leaders in Congress concede that voters are angry with them for not doing enough to end the Iraq War. They might have added that voters are also angry at them for not impeaching the president or even for moving on Rep. […]

  • Mitt Romney Made Millions of Pay-Per-View Hotel Porn

    From HuffPost There are vague grumblings on the right-wing web sites about another Mitt Romney values issue.

According to an article I just cut and […]

  • Pentagon Pushes Out Taguba

    Remember Army Major General Antonio M. Taguba? He was the author of the original report that detailed the torturing at Abu Gharib. “Here . . . comes . . . that famous General Taguba—of the Taguba report!” Rumsfeld declared, in a mocking voice. … Taguba, describing the moment nearly three years later, said, sadly, “I […]

  • Me Against the Music (Britney/Madonna)

    I really like the music and beats behind the Britney/Madonna song ‘Me Against the Music’. I just hate that they are both in the song.
