    Adult Supervision is Returning to Wall Street

    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,” [...]



    can we impeach the bastard now?

    Things are rapidly devolving in Afghanistan back to the bad old days of Taliban-Northern Alliance violence, with the added target of U.S. troops in the middle:

    Insurgent attacks have put US and NATO forces on the defensive in eastern Afghanistan, an area recently touted as a counter-insurgency success but now a focus of spreading insecurity, analysts say.

    In the latest attack, at least [...]



    Kucinich’s HR333 to be tabled on Tuesday

    Kucinich’s HR 333 resolution to Impeach Cheney is scheduled to come up for a vote on Tuesday, Nov. 6.  In this video Kucinich explains that there will be, in lieu of an actual vote on the resolution, a motion to table the resolution thereby forcing members of the House of Representatives to go on record opposing Cheney’s impeachment (if they vote for tabling the [...]

    2008 Candidates

    Let’s just say today were the caucuses, not next February. Who would you vote for? I believe it’s time for us to take the opportunity and develop a platform, even if it’s only in the sense of what we’re looking for in a candidate. Some of us have done this already – most notably John. Let’s at least begin narrowing down our list, so we can find out who to devote our resources, limited as they are, to helping. [...]



    Gravel Gives Them Hell

    Just watched the Dems debate replay on CNN.com.  The you tube format really worked.  Made for a most interesting and entertaining candidate debate.  Here are my brief observations (may have more to say here later):

    Biden said his net worth was between $75,000 and $150,000 and therefore as President he would not work for the minimum wage (one of the questions).  As a U.S [...]
