The group of experts who advised the Iraq Study Group was assembled again to provide an assessment of progress in Iraq since the publishing of the ISG report and they’ve released their findings. According to the WaPo, the group concludes that political progress is “so slow, halting and superficial” and political fragmentation “so pronounced” that […]

If so that would be big news. If not, it is still big news and Beth Miller at the NJ totally missed the story. There were four unpledged delegates on Friday and there is only one unpledged now. Who picked up the three? Were they split? You don’t know if you get your political news […]

They are spending buckets of money to kill the Blue Water Wind project but not getting much bang for the buck. First there was astroturf/push poll that Dana uncovered and now DP spokeman Bill Yingling is calling Representatives Valihura and Cathcart stupid (and in turn being called a liar by them). But Delmarva spokesman Bill […]

What I’m Reading…aka look at me I’m smart segment

Update: Austin Dacey will apparently be visitin UD on April 15th. Thanks Cassandra… It is one hell of a read thus far.  In a nutshell, Religion has gone underground and popped up through government and other arenas because Liberals forced it out of the the public dialogue.  Had we not tried to make certain things […]

Filed in National by on April 4, 2008 1 Comment

My redneck barometer called me today. “Hey man, Obama is kicking ass.” he said. “Really?” I replied a bit guardedly. You never know where he is going with something. “Oh yeah, that new ad rocks. It is about time someone is talking about keeping jobs in this country and taxing the hell out of companies […]
