The message was delivered yesterday LOUD and CLEAR. The US Voter does NOT want Politics As Usual. We’ve got the house, and we’re within a hair’s breadth of taking the Senate, though I fully expect it to wait for a recount in Virginia.
I am in awe. The power of the people has spoken.
We delivered the […]

C’mon folks, let’s do it. As an email to me said, “In the last 6 years, Bush and the Republicans have lied us into war, poisoned our planet, and trampled our constitution. In the next 8 hours, you can bring all that to an end.”

The New West News has an interesting article this week, which discusses the bass-ackwardness of the Republican pols and their thinking (or lack thereof) on conservation and the environmentalist climate in the US today - in which Todd Wilkinson asks, “Is it a contradiction or, closer to the point, is it mutually exclusive to be […]

Putting aside the fact that Hussein deserves whatever he gets, the manipulation of the Iraqi Tribunal by the Bush Administration solely for political gains right before the election and at a time when the Iraqi situation was already volatile, thus putting both Iraqi and US lives in danger, is absolutely despicable.

I dunno…. I THOUGHT I was. But then I read this post on Donklephant - and now I’m not only pretty sure I’m NOT, I’m also…. queasy….
Ewww. Here’s where it gets ugly. Okay, I’m NOT a “conservative” or a “Republican”, self-evident I suppose. Then again, I’m certainly not a “liberal” […]

The AT&T/BellSouth Merger, along with the proposed Notice of Inquiry on Net Neutrality is OFF the agenda for the Friday FCC Meeting. According to Harold Feld at Wet Machine this most likely indicates that Adelstein and Copps have put Martin on notice that they will not accept a NOI as a substitute for merger conditions. […]

Anyone in the DC area on Friday who has or can make the time to attend this open meeting of the FCC should please attend. As of right now (but this can change) the AT&T BellSouth Merger is on the agenda along with the question of Net Neutrality. This is an important meeting since if […]
