The Senate Republicans are in the process of using the auto-bail out as a means of simply destroying the UAW by trying to force the Big Three into having the exact same wages, benefits and work rules as Honda & Toyota. Good to know they are still clinging to ideology first.But even darker is that this represents a repeat of the ploy used by House Republicans during the banking bail-out. Knowing

Looking at the news this week and the whirlwind surrounding Blago it has left me thinking that Obama nailed it. The first test Obama was faced with after becoming President Elect was his cabinet choices. We all know, Dems and Repubs that he got it right. Time will tell if his cabinet works for the best but he has certainly presented his case that he would live up to his campaign promises of a

This one is hard to believe. Apparently the brother of Mark Ruffalo (whoever the hell that is) died today and one of the suspects in the case indicated that he died from 'chronic playing of Russian roulette'. Okay I guess. But one has a one in 6 chance of not surviving Russian roulette.How chronic could it possibly be?

David Horowitz has a nice article over at CBSNEWs by way of the NRO basically telling Alan Keyes and all of the other right wing nutters to shut the fuck up about the Obama birth certificate issue. I couldn't agree more! Just what in the world are these people trying to accomplish?Where I take issue with Mr. Horowitz this statement:This tempest over whether Obama, the child of an American

Rumors are swirling that John McCain was involved in an extra-marital affair during the 2000 campaign. What makes this worse is that the woman involved is a Washington lobbyist. Now we've always thought Republicans were in bed with the representatives of Big Business but this takes the cake.I don't know if this is true or not, and I certainly have no information that anybody else has, but I

Appears the FBI is investigating the practices of many of the large Wall St companies who brought us the Sub-Prime crisis. Everything from insider trading to accounting fraud to manipulated home appraisals.It is probably too much hope at this point for a lot of people to go to jail over this, but it should be a fun ride.

I wonder what right wingers think about when they read articles like this one by Susan Jacoby which discusses that Americans are not just getting dumber but are arrogant about the fact.It goes along way to explaining why America is beginning to be surpassed in the world. Too many people who believe in Free Trade without thinking about what it really means. And it certainly isn't open trade

You can go here to see John McCain's proposals on Healthcare reform for the US. Aircav over at ABP has decided that I'm an asshole because I was making fun of McCain, saying I didn't realize he had a plan beyond saying if you don't have health insurance don't plan on getting it anytime soon.So here is John McCain's plan as posted on his website:Bringing costs under control is the only way to

John Cole over at Ballon-Juice brought it to my attention today that critics are slamming Obama today saying that he can't speak well without using a teleprompter.So I'm watching him give his speech tonight on MSNBC and lo and behold it strikes me.

Robert Novak is at it again. In todays edition of his bizarre reality he writes a scribe saying that Democrats are racist because Obama's poll results leading up to the California primary were dramatically different than the outcome on primary day was much different than the polls. Los Angeles Mayor Tom Bradley, an African American Democrat, unexpectedly lost his 1982 campaign for governor. His

Mitt Romney just can't get a break. Check out this online poll at the London Times that gives their readers a chance to 'vote in the US primary'.

Apparently if John Edwards does pull out of the Presidential race after New Hampshire, he won't be out of work for long.

Over almost as soon as it started Joe Biden and Chris Dodd both dropped out out of the race for the President last night.

In what I'm sure is a sign of the coming apocolypse, George Will is singing the praises of Democrat Charlie Rangel, calling him a closet Reaganite of all things.

Listening to the popular median one would think that Mike Huckabee is a one trick pony. He may just win Iowa but the conventional wisdom seems to be that it is over from there.But looking at Real clear Politics seems to tell a vastly different story. He is trailing the pack in New Hampshire polling at a RCP average of 9% as compared to McCain's 32%.But after New Hampshire the campaign moves to
