One Down, One to Go
Just a week ago Bryon Short was elected in the 7th in a surprise to many in the Republic party. However, Today I start harping on Lynn Bullock for the seat of the ever-present John Atkins, State Representative of the fightin’ 41st. Lynn is a retired State Policeman (so he has probably met JA a […]
It’s Sunday why the Hell aren’t you in church?
VATICAN CITY (Reuters) – The Roman Catholic Church has effectively buried the concept of limbo, the place where centuries of tradition and teaching held that babies who die without baptism went. A person much smarter than me sent this to me with this comment: “So for 1800 years, some place was collecting these babies and […]
Mike Castle Bracing for O’Donnell Primary
A sure sign that Castle is worried about a Christine O’Donnell challenge is today’s “I’ve got lots of money” story that Wenk got planted in the WNJ. Elizabeth Wenk lays down her ebenezer, is surprisingly unguarded in her comments to Nicole Gaudiano and is clearly trying to send a message to would be conservative challengers. […]
Republican Attack Machine Examined
I think we are well served to look back at the Republican attack machine that was unleashed on John Kerry in 2004 – in order to be ready for the next onslaught of lies, fabrications and character assassinations. This Eric Boehlert column in Media Matters, which looks back at the “Swift Boat Veterans for Truth,” […]

Katie Jamruk was surprised when her principal told her she would have to remove her artwork from a senior show at Highland (IL) High School because it offended their “religious beliefs.” The painting didn’t have anything to do with religion, but pointed out some of the controversial elements of the Bush administration, including the Iraq […]

Supporting the Troops – Bush Style
A kos diarists writes: So President Bush was in Grand Rapids giving one of his Iraq updates. One of his points was to demonstrate our changing tactics. In doing so he shows a map of Baghdad with the positions of our current deployments. This is his commentary that went along with the picture: You can […]
Around the Horn Friday: Remember the Hokies Edition
We’re back again with another installment of around the horn. This week has been gut-wrenching as the horror of VT came more into focus as the week progressed. It may have been the best thing for Gonzo, though, as many people just had to turn off the TV after the latest news from Blacksburg and […]
My new domestic strategy
From time to time you will learn that I like to share stuff much to private for most bloggers. I am an open book though and for better or worse I put myself out there. I like to use analogies, I like to use personal situations as well as talk about my ex wife. Something […]

But “at the end of the day I know I did not do anything improper.” Gonzales marched out of the hearing at its conclusion, shortly before 5 p.m., as protesters began singing “Hey, hey, goodbye” from the […]
Cathcart’s Catharthis Canceled
Here is what I think happened. Knowing that he was really, really, really going to be toast after the 1:00 press conference – John Atkins put pressure on some big R’s and reiterated his threat to clean out the GOP’s skeleton closet, basement, Raider’s of the Lost Arc-type storage facility. Presto! No press conference. UPDATE: […]
