So you're calling your wife on a business trip and you think maybe it's a good idea to have a little hanky-panky over the phone, just something for the two of you to feel a little closer, maybe. No one's listening, right? I mean, after all...
In response to the recent court decision ruling against D.C.'s handgun ban, I think it's important to tie this up with the recent vote to provide immunity to telecoms who spied on American citizens--at the behest of the Bush administration--WITHOUT...
The House passed a bill today that provides retroactive immunity for all telecommunications companies involved in President Bush's domestic spying program. You know why they need retroactive immunity? BECAUSE THEY BROKE THE LAW . The Bush administration...
Special thanks to our representative, Gwen Moore, for suporting the call by House Representative Dennis Kucinich's to impeach President Bush. Kucinich introduced 35(!) articles of impeachment against the president and Representative Robert Wexler...
Sure, Sean Penn's a great actor, but when it comes to other issues, he's about as dense as granite (that means "very" if Sean Penn happens to be reading this). He's going around the country as we speak talking about the wonders of...
Given it's Earth Day/Week (depending on who you talk to), I thought I'd pick out a few of the best articles I've found on Climate Progress that might be of interest. NY Times Magazine -- ... is full of junk. Don't bother reading it, and...
Patriotism is not blindly following leaders. Patriotism means finding the truth and always questioning, no matter what. What's happening in Iraq belongs to the Bush administration. No presidential administration will ever come close to this one, but...
John McCain's vote against Martin Luther King Day was no mistake, and you need to understand this because race plays a BIG role in the modern conservative movement. It plays a big role because the modern conservatives first began in the late 50's...
It's nice out, so spend some time outside. But it's going to rain this weekend, too, and before you turn on your TV set and kill a few more brain cells, catch up on these particular treats (I even included a video to help you cope with all the...
What's the connection between the two, you ask? Well, for starters, they're both extremely incompetent. Make no mistake about it, Osama bin Laden is an egomaniac with relatively low intelligence when it comes to terrorism (he was NOT the mastermind...
Telecommunications companies do NOT deserve retroactive immunity for breaking the law just because the Bush Administration needed to spy on us illegally. Let me tell you something flat out: Telecom companies have PLATOONS of lawyers whose sole job is...
For those of you who think this environmental disaster was old news, guess what -- Exxon is still fighting to keep every penny out of the hands of people and communities damaged by its incompetence. Remember when Exxon went in front of the cameras and...
Congratulations, Wisconsin, on choosing Barack Obama. It's good to see that Hillary Clinton's recent populist rhetoric isn't sucking too many people in ... Don't get me wrong, though. Clinton is definitely not a bad candidate, but her...
There were two separate committee hearings on Wednesday, February 13th. One was Roger Clemens testifying before a committee regarding whether he used steroids 10 years ago. A lot of media were there, if you didn't notice. A lot of cranky old Republicans...
The Senate has now officially passed a bill for retroactive telecom immunity . Why do the telecommunication companies need immunity? Because they helped the Bush administration break the law. They broke the law by spying on the American people without...
While you're whittling away the day with your various chores, here's something to think about: How many tax cuts have been passed since the Reagan era? The answer: None. Because cutting taxes on a budget deficit means the government is simply...
What's the point in having a Congress at all when President Bush makes signing statements on every single piece of legislation that crosses his desk? Let me explain in further detail for you with the help of Constitutional scholar John W. Dean : "Suppose...
In honor of our local conservative radio hosts, I thought I would pass along this little story that I originally found on Media Matters. Read it, because I'll comment more below: "A DAY IN THE LIFE OF JOE REPUBLICAN" Joe gets up at 6 a.m...
