  • The Big Bailout...Ha!

    There is no need for a bailout of the bank when we can bail them out through tax payer spending...heres how: America has fought hard to become an independent nation and a leader in innovation, so how can we fix our current economic downtrend efficiently? Some seem to think that throwing money at the corporations who failed us is the answer…we all ...

  • A Refreshing Change of Events

    I find it oddly comforting that regardless of any manipulation in the press, when confronted with this latest salacious story, by and large the public says ''meh''. When pressured to join the tarring they fight back. When it comes to reasoned debate, the voices of restrain (in my limited experience) win. More encouraging is the growing ...

  • Re: Too Cute!

    He can't say he had the idea before Darren, but a friend of mine did basically the same thing in a bit over a week and beat Darren to the punch. www.mcnarney.com These proud parents were home for the holidays in Iowa and decided baby William should have his picture taken with each of the candidates. Cute kids, both of them.

  • N E G L E C T E D.....C O N S T I T U E N C Y..?

    For better or worse, most people vote with their pocket-book. There is a group of people in the USA who are smart, who save their money, and actually want to pay more taxes!

  • Edwards Lost

    The yearlykos crowd was Edward's to lose and Hillary's to lose. Edwards was passionate but in a demagogic way that talked down to the crowd. And he was the first candidate to get aggressive and attack the others (not counting Gravel) which did not play well in this crowd. Edwards, while super bright, comes across as a preening peacock who is ...

  • Those Links Confirm That she's Bush-Cheney Lite

    I don't fault Obama far calling Hillary Bush-Cheney lite. It shows that Hillary is not the only one who can withstand the Republican machine. I would've been disappointed if he had given Hillary a free pass. The author is clearly pro-Hillary, but I don't understand why he included links to stories that could damage Hillary's campaign especially ...

  • Re: John Edwards, looking the worst in the face

    Elizabeth has a point. John Edwards' personal trials or tragedies were not things that he chose-- they chose him. But, as a star trial attorney acknowledged as one of the best in the country, Edwards could have chosen to represent very wealthy corporate clients-- as indeed Hillary did at the Rose firm in Arkansas, representing some of the very ...
