Failure to Admit Blagojevich Appointee to Senate Big Mistake
Failure to Admit Illinois Governor Blagojevich's Appointee, the eminently qualified and well reputed Roland Burris, to the United States Senate will prove to be a supremely Big Mistake made by the Democratic Senate Leadership and yes, Barack Obama. News today is that the U.S. Senate will seat 59 Democratic Senators, including their Candidate ...

"everybody's President"
During the Nov. 7 Gabfest Emily said something like this ''He (Obama) is everybody’s president''. Not true. For people like me, who are gay, he is not our president. Not just because he holds the standard ''separate but equal'' notion on marriage that we get from his party. But his election itself is a sign of Gay and Lesbians ...

Dahlia Lithwick Uses Recipes to Write a Legal Column About..
... ABORTION. Lithwick's very idea that women do not have reproductive choice, if they cannot extinquish the life growing in their own wombs, is in and of itself faulty. I mean, my God, did the female have sex with the guy, or did she not? As to being ''for change'' in everything but pro-Abort American policies at home and abroad, not everyone ...

Re: Is The Media Bias? Here is Evidence of Bias
Media bias is a perceived notion that certain press has and is pushing a viewpoint, instead of reporting news or airing programs in an objective way. That is the way I see it. Such bias often refers to media as a whole, such as a newspaper chain, or a given television or radio network, instead of individual reporters or writers of television ...

MoveOn.org, Progressive Promise, John Edwards Affair…
Looking over the MoveOn.org site, they seem to focus on their progressive promise of our country. What does that mean? Progressive Promise? Ever taken a good look at the progressive socialist movement? It starts out as the people’s party with the ideals of hope and change, the desire to save the country and the environment. And where does it end ...

GABFEST RE: BROOKS COLUMN
REGARDING: GABFEST ON POTUS 08 (SLATE.COM) I heard your conversation regarding David Brooks vacuous column on Senator Obama. You indicated agreement that Obama seems not to ''take and action,'' to be ''too thoughtful,'' to not have substance. Really?
