I think this move lacks creativity . The modern GOP isnt trying to go back to the Bush Days as much as theyre trying to return to the Reagan Days. Why? Because Reagan was more popular. They should be talking about how the GOP has stalled health care reform, distorted the global warming debate, and have openly invited ...6 days ago -

This is apparently the hot story of the moment, and its fair to say that people on the Right are inflating this into more of a controversy than it really is. But progressives and liberals seem to be crowing a bit to much as well. In terms of parliamentary procedure, Franken is most certainly in right in voicing his ...6 days ago -

Much is being made about Obamas "self-evaluation" for his first year as President. From the more predictable tirades from the far-right calling this ego-driven blather to tebaggers equating this with Obama claiming that he can perform complex brain-surgery, I would honestly have to say I dont agree with any of it - ...1 week ago -
