  • Legal Foot Dragging Denial of Inevitable by Senate Republicn

    I find the months long and continuing saga of Senate Republicans and former incumbent Norm Coleman of Minnesota, in denying a rightful U.S. Senate seat to Al Franken, both insulting and undemocratic. These Republican legal stratagems and arguments are hollow and feckless, mere tools of the impoverished and unimaginative minds of Sore Losers. In ...

  • Later, George, It's Been (Sur)Real

    Thank God it's almost over. From the very beginning, the Bush presidency was an assault on our democracy. The democratic process was circumvented when he was installed by the Supreme Court the first time around, and it was downhill from there. That inauspicious beginning was especially significant because it seemed to signal an attitude of utter ...

News today is that the U.S. Senate will seat 59 Democratic Senators, including their Candidate ...

  • 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.

  • 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 ...

  • Is The Media Bias? Here is Evidence of Bias

    How the Media Vote. Surveys of journalists’ self-reported voting habits show them backing the Democratic candidate in every presidential election since 1964, including landslide losers George McGovern, Walter Mondale and Michael Dukakis.

  • Liberal Media Lies

    Political logic augurs a Democratic triumph in looming US elections but Barack Obama’s White House duel with John McCain is still a statistical tie, prompting some to wonder why he is yet to break away. Political logic augurs a democratic triumph? Augur: To predict, especially from signs or omens; foretell. What signs or omens are they looking ...

  • Re: Put Obama on the spot with his lies-Part 2

    Obama misleads and LIES on Oil Profits Speaking to a town hall meeting on July 31, 2008. Barack Obama tries to slant the money made by the oil industry as being bad. What he once again neglected, ignored, chose not to mention on purpose is the record amount of money the United States Government has raked in from Exxon. Once again the politicians ...
