    The Columbian gives cover to Radical Homophobic Agenda

    It seems that The Columbian equates giving religious fundamentalist fringe “a seat at the table” with bestowing a high honor on one of its leaders. The following is my response to their latest Cheers & Jeers:

    After the hyperpartisanship and ideologically driven policy that marked the outgoing administration there is no disagreement that it is a necessary and admirable endeavor for Obama to be [...]



    Oops, Joe the Plumber has some Issues

    Noticed this comment to an article about poor Joe the Plumber over at OpEd News this morning:

    The crap is about to hit the fan…

    from a post:

    “John McCain did great tonight in the debate. But every time John mentioned “Joe the Plumber,” some of us in the campaign banged our heads against the wall. If Steve Schmidt had [...]



    It is Going to be Harder to Steal this one from That One

    Barack Obama has widened his lead over his Republican presidential rival John McCain to 14 points, according to a new opinion poll from the New York Times and CBS News.

    Columbian Endorses Carrier, Probst and Wallace

    David Carrier

    Tim Probst

    Deb Wallace

    The Columbian has an accurate and strong endorsement for all three Democrats running for the State Legislature in the 17th Legislative District in Clark County.  As a former Chair of the 17th District Democrats and someone who knows all three endorsees, it is quite surprising to see a newspaper that endorsed George Bush in 2004 [...]



    dow down 800 now

    Not the time when you want Phil Gramm’s puppet, Mr. Don’t Know Nuthin’ Bout No Economics, leading the charge.

    The last time I got a bonus at the end of the year was 1998. The economy in the U.S. was slowing down, but if you were in the export business, you were growing like mad.

    This time, the rest of the world is [...]



    Biden’s Greatest Hits

    Here is the best “straight talk” that came out of the debate.

    I doubt we will hear the hockey mom talk much or even see much of her anymore.  Too bad, she is quite helpful to Obama’s polling numbers.
