It astounds me that we are even discussing this. Did no one see this gradual erosion of American liberties; of our Constitution? Was it so subtle in its application that we are now addressed by a completely unchecked President who says “Yes, this is the constitution, crumpled into a ball in my hand...

We have such an appetite for scandal that our eyes can so quickly be taken off the real ball. We choose the oddest hills to die on.
But here we are nevertheless.
We cannot compare this to the actions taken by President Clinton. Apples and oranges. Clinton ensured he would not have issues li...

Congressional majority, you should know better than most that where we democrats differ greatly with most republicans is in our refusal to unconditionally support our side. I find it so amusing when talking heads on the right (of the Sean Hannity ilk) gleefully prattle away on "Those whacko democrat...

What was touted as the Bush administration's attempt at diplomatic strides in Iraq and with Iran slid to the status of non-event this past weekend.
The Bush administration was under increasing Congressional pressure to seek more diplomatic solutions in Iraq and in its approach to Iran. With co...

The White House has had their knee in the gut of US government scientists, pressuring them to alter writings and reports to support this administration's denial of global warming and its potential impact. The Union of Concerned Scientists told members of the House Oversight and Government Reform Com...

Beginning December 20, 2006, President Bush began securing for his administration the authority to open American's postal mail without a warrant.
This administration is a living example of a quote that comes to mind:
"Nearly all men can withstand adversity; if you want to test a man's characte...

We are inundated from the right with statements like "see, they wanted to cut and run but now it's a different story", "see we were right all along." This was, on the part of the Republicans, actually utter stupidity or brilliant strategy. Let me remind the right of something...the republicans MADE ...

President Bush in autocratic zeal remains myopically focused on justifying his war in Iraq. He holds steadfast in his saddle, atop his horse wielding his branding iron and searing the posterior of nations and even American citizens with a "wit us" or "agin' us" white hot brand.
That gallop was ...

I applaud the growing success of all those dedicated to pushing the boundaries of just how sickened we can be by scandal.
When the Foley story broke, I gasped, was glued to the initial reports and I even plead guilty to - somewhere in the deep recesses of my mind - whispering "thank heavens it w...
