Tuesday, July 01, 2008 : Frankly, I think we’re running out of time to turn this country around before we’re too far gone. And I definitely think that John McCain is not the man to turn it around. What I’m beginning to wonder is whether Barak Obama is the man to turn it around. Or if we have anyone currently in politics who can turn it around. : And there are times I just enjoy bursting someone's bubble. I get a royal kick of it. Once again, I play iconoclast, and extend the WTW pin to prick yet another neocon fantasy... Story follows shortly....yes... Full Story Saturday, June 28, 2008 : And straight away, a tip of the Six ballcap to our dear friends over at Democratic Underground for this cute little deal: Seems some of those Obama smears are coming from....yeppers...Freeperland!
Stay with me... Full Story Tuesday, June 24, 2008 : There's nothing like the concurrence of a serious economic problem, like the cost of oil and gas, with the pandering and pretzelling of logic that is a presidential election. Claims, counterclaims, distortions, outright lies, and the ever popular partial truths all flying around in print, on the air, and in the massive confusion of voters minds.

Full Story Thursday, June 12, 2008 : The Associated Press claims that Drudge Retort users linking to its stories are violating its copyright and committing "'hot news' misappropriation under New York state law." An AP attorney filed six Digital Millenium Copyright Act takedown requests this week demanding the removal of blog entries and another for a user comment. Full Story Wednesday, June 11, 2008 : On Monday, the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform released its report titled JACK ABRAMOFF’S CONTACTS WITH WHITE HOUSE OFFICIALS. Interesting reading; if you haven't already looked at it, follow the link in the last sentence. Wednesday, June 04, 2008 : The political world, especially at the right end of the spectrum, is full of "support our troops" mantras, supplemented by the millions of Americans whose cars & trucks sport magnets bearing the same slogans. Needless to say, slogans don't particularly help our troops, being incapable of restoring health, supplying food and shelter, or finding jobs for the vets. And it looks like, once again, those who scream "support our troops" the loudest have missed another opportunity to render support beyond words and magnets.
