Southwest Washington successfully Raised the Roof at our 2007 Dinner & Auction Saturday, October 20th at the Hilton Vancouver Washington. The auction raised more than $1.27 million exceeding a $1 million endowment challenge to satisfy an anonymous pledge of $2 million towards the [...]

A case of pre-mature blog-u-lation, apparently:
Randi Rhodes, the Air America radio host who began her talk-show career on South Florida’s WIOD 610-AM, was injured Sunday night when she fell near her apartment on Manhattan’s East Side.
The circumstances of that fall were murky Tuesday. Monday night, Air America’s Jon Elliott announced on his show that [...]

What happened to you KATU?You used to be cool, sort of….I used to look at your website and occasionally your newscast, because I felt that it had - for a mainstream, major network affilliate - fairly balanced spin and a relatively small ratio of fear-mongering to actual news. You would send correspondents to anti-war [...]

KATU - usually our less shrill and moronic major media affiliate, perhaps either frustrated with no response to an open request, finally posted their story on the meme of What’s Weird About Portland.
Predictably, they disdainfully lump the ‘weird’ into one big gooey pile of racist skinheads, pedophiles, and anti-war protesters, along with the idea [...]

In a rare case of a Bush-era Federal agency doing its job, the Federal Communications Commission proposes waging a fine for networks running VNRs as genuine news.But before you get all excited, it’s a paltry sum; a mere fraction of the cost of running an ad in the first place - and certainly much, much [...]

Alan Greenspan tells it like it is in his new memoirs. He is long past the age where he has to worry about his political hide:
“I am saddened that it is politically inconvenient to acknowledge what everyone knows: the Iraq war is largely about oil,”
The Iraq bloviating has become so thick of late that [...]

Thanks to Marion Ward for pointing out this video:
Seattle Protest Sep 11-Rich Lang
250 people demonstrated from 10:30-2:00 against war, and propaganda coming out of the churches and media supporting war. Rev. Rich Lang spoke at the rally in Westlake after the march. We marched to KOMO TV, KIRO TV, and Seattle Times but thus far [...]

Open Left, Glenn Greenwald and Firedoglake have put together an action campaign called Stop the DC Establishment at http://stopthedcestablishment.com.
This video lays out quite succinctly why statements by Gen. Patraeus do not have much (if any) credibility, given his prior grossly inaccurate assessments about “progress” in Iraq.
You can sign the petition here.
Do not be deceived about [...]

Since Bill Kristol has been wrong about everything, his prediction that “But the truth is we are going to have over 100,000 troops in Iraq when George Bush leaves office…” gives me hope at least that it will be less than that number.
Warning: What you are about to see is from the Fox News channel [...]
