The price of gas is a topic that has consumed Americans for the last year. Now Republican senator John Warner has made a surprising suggestion: reduce the national speed limit to stretch gas mileage. It sounds perfectly reasonable. In fact, there is a precedent. In 1974 faced with an energy crisis Congress decided to create [...]

I’m the type of person who worries a lot. If I have nothing to worry about, I assure you I will think of something to worry about. My worries are primarily comprised of rare happenings like terrorist attacks, plane crashes, car seat problems, medical mishaps, child abductions, exploding cell phones, re-useable plastic bottles — you [...]

Police on Sunday were investigating vandals’ spray-painting of dozens of city vehicles here, some with disparaging messages about the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama.
Authorities think the vandalism to about 60 vehicles, estimated at $10,000 in damage, was done Saturday afternoon, police spokeswoman Sgt. Barbara Jones said.
The vehicles were parked across from City Hall and [...]

From The Huffingtonpost:
As a rule, Republicans appreciate the value in defining the Democratic presidential nominee, and the GOP is usually pretty good at it. In 2000, Al Gore, they said, was an “exaggerator.” This was not only effective, thanks to a quick embrace by the media, it was also part of a narrative — when [...]

Upon meeting me for the first time, it’s fairly regular for a person to tell me how much they like Thai food since I am part Thai. I understand it, after all that may be the only connection a person has to Thailand. Better that then mentioning a sex show you saw in Thailand (sadly [...]

In his own words, John McCain tells us what his judicial philosophy is. I am struck with how the current president and John McCain really do speak in code. He never uses the word abortion yet there is no doubt that the primary purpose of this speech is to ensure that he will appoint the [...]

Fox News anchors think Abraham Lincoln ran for President against a black man. Those were such progressive days after all. In this clip, the TV hosts discuss the stupidity of their intern while never noticing that the photo that is meant to be Lincoln’s opponent Stephen Douglas is actually abolitionist Frederick Douglas.
Nice work dumb asses.

Bar and restaurant hours during the Republican National Convention might be able to stretch into the wee hours of the morning after all, with new legislation that some prior naysayers are tentatively embracing.
A proposal for allowing bars to remain open until 4 a.m. around the time of the convention passed unanimously Tuesday through the House [...]

If the polls are correct and Americans
Think the country is on the wrong track
Think going to war in Iraq was a mistake
Think we should leave Iraq
then I can’t see this man winning. With the exception of being a slightly better public speaker than George Bush, I ask you what does he say in this clip [...]

I pledge to vote for the Democratic nominee whoever that person may be.
It’s a been a rough few days. Bluntly, I am disillusioned about the election and I am angry at Hillary Clinton. I’m kinda understating it just so we’re clear. I strongly support Obama and I’ve been asking myself the past week why [...]

I’ll let the idiot speak for himself. There’s nothing I can add.
First, America has been the best country on earth for black folks. It was here that 600,000 black people, brought from Africa in slave ships, grew into a community of 40 million, were introduced to Christian salvation, and reached the greatest levels of freedom [...]

I don’t support him, but there’s nothing to say that you can’t have three candidates running for president. I’m sure the Republicans would feel similarly if Michael Bloomberg were to enter the race, but I don’t oppose that either. But the one thing that does trouble me is a question I’ve been reading on the [...]

Over the past seven years, I have been comforted by the fact that there never will be another George W. Bush. At least not for a while.
We humans tend to like things we consider original and shun things that are a knock-off. Once a trend becomes ubiquitous, we no longer want to be associated with [...]

Washington state has broken the record for the largest caucus in the nation’s history.
The 244,458 people who showed up for Democratic Party presidential-nominating caucuses in Washington last Saturday may have set a national record for attendance at any of the party’s 18 state caucuses.
“We’ve done some research, and we haven’t been able to [...]

So the recount results for the Washington State caucus are in and McCain has once again been declared the winner over Huckabee. The consensus is from state party officials that the delegates don’t matter anyway. I’m having a hard time following their logic.
Esser said four counties — Snohomish, Benton, Grant and Jefferson — had given [...]

Where was Mike Huckabee when we had Presidential election inconsistencies (a nice way to put fraud) in 2000 and 2004? It’s hard to be sympathetic.
Mike Huckabee continued to cry foul Monday over the results in Saturday’s Washington State GOP caucuses, saying the state party chairman’s decision to call the race there early for John McCain [...]

I’m getting a little frustrated that this is even a critique of Obama’s. After 7 years of “Yo, Blair” and “Bring it on” shouldn’t we strive to have a better speak than the village idiot representing our country?
And while we’re all familiar with our current president’s handicap, here’s a reminder of the 80’s equivalent, Dan [...]

This man?
Or this one?
The cannibalism has already started with Bush, Rove, Rush, Coulter and Fox News all blaming the Republican Party’s inevitable demise on John McCain. Just turn on Fox news and you’ll see the blame game start. Do they think we’re idiots? Bush’s approval ratings for the last two years, the 2006 election [...]

Mitt Romney suspended his bid for the Republican presidential nomination Thursday, saying if he continued it would “forestall the launch of a national campaign and be making it easier for Senator Clinton or Obama to win.”

John McCain, whose Super Tuesday performance has given him an aura of inevitability in the eyes of many Republican leaders, has begun an aggressive campaign to quell conservative dissent and prevent an outbreak of GOP buyer’s remorse.
The campaign, as described by Republican sources, has two pillars: outreach to talk-radio hosts and other conservative critics [...]

I think John McCain is realizing that right now that he would have done better to ignore evangelicals since nothing he has done seems to satisfy them anyway. Here’s James Dobson today:

During Gov. Romney’s speech, one of his handlers mentioned to one of our staff people that any time Gov. Romney needed to wrap things up, he would be happy to let Gov. Romney know through the ear-piece that he wore.
Could Romney’s so-called economic expertise be actually some sort of Wizard of Oz operation? Are we [...]
