On April 26th I posted a message about my view that George W. Bush will go down in history as one of the worst President’s the nation has ever had. I mentioned that it might take quite some time for him to fully reach this level as you always need to get very clear of […]

Everyone is talking about gas prices, which is very funny given that just last week all the right-wing pundits were saying that no one would be talking about it until election time because we’ve all adjusted to the high prices. Anyway, the amazing part to me is that the argument seems to fall on one […]

George W. Bush is going to go down in history as the worst President the nation has ever had. I have absolutely no doubt about that. It may take a few decades before he rises to that rank fully but it’s going to happen. This guy cannot get out of his own way. His latest […]

It comes as absolutely no surprise to anyone paying attention that Scooter Libby has now admitted that the President authorized the release of information that lead to the outing of Valerie Plame. Now that this information has been reported on, Republican pundits are in overdrive mode looking for any excuse to downplay this realization. The […]

It’s getting harder to listen to any conservative lately without hearing what clearly is a calculated effort on their part to smear Democrats wholesale. Former House Speaker Newt Gingrich, talking on a recent edition of “The O’Reilly Factor” said that “you can expect two years of all-out investigations, attacks, anything they can bring to bear” […]

The entire Republican party has taken a new approach that they think is the recipe for success. The key talking point is to continually evoke the name of Ronald Reagan. If you haven’t heard it yet, you soon will. Nearly every Republican candidate has taken to suggesting that they’re conservatives in the “Reagan Mold”. The […]

I look forward to Bill Maher‘s, “Real Time with Bill Maher” show each Friday night at 11pm on HBO. For those who would deride the show as being one that Bill O’Reilly likes to refer to as one from the “extreme left”, I would have to disagree. Anyone from the right is welcome to come […]

On March 21 of this year President Bush was asked at a White House news conference if he foresaw any upcoming changes in his staff. He said not only did he not foresee any but that the current staff had been doing a great job and added, “We’ve been a remarkably stable administration, and I […]

The current Presidential administration continues its offensive on the media in a calculated attempt to convince Americans that the media is, in large part, to blame for continued violence in Iraq. They point out that the terrorists know that if they blow up a building, kidnap someone or behead someone that it’ll get major coverage […]

Yesterday President Bush stated that it would be up to future Presidents to decide the situation in Iraq with regard to the withdrawal of troops. The press immediately jumped on the remark to mean that troops would be in Iraq for the next 3 years. Frankly, this administration has been extremely careful in choosing the […]

It’s been a few days now since the Coretta Scott King funeral and the rightwing pundits are still up in arms over the comments of several speakers at the event. Their spin on this is that a funeral is no place for comments like those of President Jimmy Carter or Rev. Joseph Lowery. The pundits […]

In his State of the Union, which was full of misleading statements and rhetoric, President Bush made references to how important our freedom is and that it must be protected. Meanwhile he’s acting in ways that fly in the face of these comments. First, the wiretapping is unlawful. There’s no gray area here. It’s illegal […]
