    Democrats Eat Their Own

    Harry Reid

    As expected, the US Senate stopped Roland Burris from lawfully taking his Senate seat this morning.  The Democrats cannot stand up to Bush or Cheney.  They cannot stand up to the Republican MINORITY. They cannot stand up to Joe “Kneepads” Lieberman. But they sure as heck can stand up to one of their own.  I would not even believe this was [...]



    Pay to Play

    Blagojevich

    That’s how it works in America.  Want a Senate seat?  What are you going to give me in return.  He is just playing the game the way it’s played.  Right?

    In the transcripts, on 3 November Mr Blagojevich said the seat was a “[expletive] valuable thing, you just don’t give it away for nothing”.

    While my opinion doesn’t mean squat, here’s my dream cabinet, which includes promoting FEMA back to cabinet level (and taking it out of Dept. of Homeland Security):

    Department of Agriculture: Senator Tom Harkin Department of Commerce: Rep. Peter DeFazio, D-Oregon Department of [...]



    what we’re not being told about afghanistan

    Yes, we hear that the rate of casualties among coalition forces has now exceeded those in Iraq, but we have heard nothing like this from the MSM. We have to get it from Rolling Stone:

    By the time we reach the town of Salar, only 50 miles south of Kabul, we have already passed five tractor-trailers from military convoys that have been destroyed [...]



    Please help David Carrier beat Benton in the 17th

    David Carrier for State Senate 17th Legislative District www.davidcarrier.org

    Hello supporters!

    We’re in the final stretch now- just over ten days to go- and the race is extremely close. Your help is needed now more than ever. In recent polls the 17th District vote is split 50/50 between Don Benton and myself, and between Governor Gregoire and her opponent Dino Rossi. That’s too [...]
