There have been two revelations in the past week or so that bear some reflection and comparison. Last week, researchers announced that they had figured out a way to make stem cells without embryos. This is good for all of us, as it will keep the abortion/right-to-lifers out of the treatment research for Parkinson’s and […]

In the end the Congress still only serves one group

What a joke our congress has become. Just more proof they don’t work for the American people, but actually for the American Corporations. Automakers would be required to meet an industrywide average of 35 miles per gallon for cars and light trucks, including SUVs, by 2020, the first increase by Congress in car fuel efficiency […]

The Capitalists Abandon The Republicans

Filed in Uncategorized by on October 16, 2007 0 Comments

I honestly am a bit concerned about this story. The shift in power in Congress has resulted in the lobbyist money shifting from Republicans to Democrats, dramatically in some cases. The article has a major weakness, though. It suggests that industry may not be happy when Congress takes on some serious regulatory issues (greenhouse gases […]

Looks like we are finally seeing some honest-to-goodness, rubber-meets-the-road reform from our Democratic leadership.  You want pork prevention, how about John Murtha being upbraided by a fellow Democrat for pork-barreling?  I hope this will mark the beginning of the end of the earmark era of Congress.  We are walking the walk.  Thank you, Speaker Pelosi.

Filed in Uncategorized by on May 20, 2007 11 Comments

This (from thinkprogesss) is awesome. I love Harry Reid. “Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid has a little trick up his sleeve that could spell an end to President Bush’s devilish recess appointments of controversial figures like former United Nations Ambassador John Bolton.” U.S. News reports: We hear that over the long August vacation, when those […]

i’m already over my 1 post limit, but that other one doesn’t count.  “I’m a rebel Dotty!” Mr Bush was doing his best to contribute to global warming by blowing more hot air for the plants in the Rose Garden.  Bush by the way thinks the Rose Garden is a national park I kid you not.  So […]

Today marks the official return of Democrats to the offices of Congressional leadership. It is a wonderful, glorious, jubilant day, on which my only regret is that we don’t have a Delaware Democrat in the House of Representatives to share it. I am joyful none the less, and I have confidence the 110th Congress will be proceed […]
