Random RecitalsJealousy is a disease, love is a healthy condition. The immature mind often mistakes one for the other, or assumes that the greater the love, the greater the jealousy in fact, they are almost incompatible; one emotion hardly leaves room for the other Lively LinksLinks change randomly each time the cache is refreshed. |
Article by John on December 9th, 2009 at 5:13 pm This move on his part makes some sense out of his erratic behavior of late. So who is going to run to replace him? The Republicans are ecstatic. Unless the Democratic Congress can fix the economy and health care very quickly, the gains seen in 2006 and 2008 will evaporate or worse. var wordpress_toolbar_urls = ["http:\/\/politics.theatlantic.com\/2009\/12\/another_democratic_incumbent_retires.php","http:\/\/www.politico.com\/blogs\/glennthrush\/1209\/Baird_retires_GOP_rejoices.html"];var wordpress_toolbar_url = “http://www.democracyforvancouver.org/wp-content/plugins/wordpress-toolbar/toolbar.php”;var wordpress_toolbar_oinw = “oinw”;var wordpress_toolbar_hash = “aHR0cDovL3d3dy5kZW1vY3JhY3lmb3J2YW5jb3V2ZXIub3JnL2NvbmdyZXNzL2hvdXNlLW9mLXJlcHJlc2VudGF0aXZlcy9iYWlyZC1icmlhbi9icmlhbi1iYWlyZC1yZXRpcmluZy88d3B0Yj5CcmlhbiBCYWlyZCBSZXRpcmluZzx3cHRiPmh0dHA6Ly93d3cuZGVtb2NyYWN5Zm9ydmFuY291dmVyLm9yZzx3cHRiPkRlbW9jcmFjeSBmb3IgVmFuY291dmVy”;
Article by John on November 9th, 2009 at 5:04 pm Local blogger extraordinaire, Chris Bassett, was quoted in an Oregonian (Mapes on Politics) article about Clark County politics and the increasingly odd behavior of the 3rd District Representative Brian Baird. Former Democratic activist Chris Bassett, whose blog on Clark County politics I discovered today, points to county-by-county returns on the two big initiatives on last week’s ballot. Voters in each county of the district, outside [...]

Article by John on October 31st, 2008 at 5:12 pm So says our Representative Brian Baird and I quote him from a link to a story in my earlier article: Baird said the legislation also will prevent executives who presided over the financial crisis from reaping huge salaries and bonuses. “Any company that chooses to participate in the program will not be able to offer their departing executives exorbitant severance packages,” he said. “In companies where the [...]
Article by John on October 3rd, 2008 at 12:58 pm Brian Baird chimes in on his misguided, doing nothing for “the people”, vote for the bailout: “In companies where the government is making a direct purchase, it will also place strict limits on executive salaries and will end the tax deduction for executive salaries over $500,000. For the first time in a long while, adult supervision is returning to Wall Street.” Baird also praised the provision that [...]
Article by missy on September 29th, 2008 at 5:41 pm I just heard my favorite congressperson, Peter DeFazio of Oregon, on with Randi Rhodes say that: (1) credit unions are doing just fine (they’re owned by their members, and are an atypical corporate creature); and (2) businesses are turning to credit unions after being denied credit by their commercial banks; and (3) those commercial banks are refusing their customers – even those with good credit – because of [...]
Article by John on September 26th, 2008 at 3:11 pm Below is a fundraising appeal from Representative Baird: Dear John, The Primary election of last month brought good news and new challenges.

I am grateful for that result and for your support in making it possible. Our new [...] | |
