Plunderbund

Update: This is now a page instead of blog post and is a work in progress with comments on the page enabled. I have made some changes suggested over at Kos already. Thanks for all the input and support of this little wiki-like project! Hopefully it will benefit those looking for […]

With the majority of the American people now NOT in favor of the war in Iraq, Bushco decided it was time to unveil a “plan for victory in Iraq”. High time I’d say, Mr. President. Yes, in fact, so many people are now against this war Bush himself might call it a “mandate”. […]

Are these guys for real? This little clip of audio is a real head shaker. Charles Grassley, Republican from Iowa outlines his case for Manifest Diesel:
You know, what–what makes our economy grow is energy. And, and Americans are used to going to the gas tank (sic), and when they put that hose […]

Jim Petro is running an ad which appeals strongly to the Rod Parsley crowd…and he’s running it very early. This is a sign to me that he might think himself and other state Republicans are in real trouble over the ongoing corruption within their party and Jim’s inability to effectively step up and deal […]

Wikiwars are fun to watch. Wikipedia is an amazing resource that basically takes the knowledge of users in various subject matters and leverages that in an open way to provide a free online encyclopedia. Most of you know all that.
What you might not realize is the amount of time that goes […]

via the Dispatch:
“I have made a very difficult decision,” Coleman said during a lunchtime press conference in the mayor’s office. “I am announcing today that I will no longer be a candidate for governor of Ohio.”
The campaign never really got off the ground. The DUI along with some serious online mis-steps doomed this […]

Ah, catching up. My family got slammed with a turkey of a vacation: 3 days in the hospital with my youngest. Kidney infections in 5 year olds suck! As does 5 tries getting an IV in her arm. I almost punched a nurse over that one. There is no […]

The following are things that I am thankful for, as it relates to politics and Plunderbund (of course I’m thankful for my family, friends, etc):

The Internet - the great equalizer. Now news travels at the speed of RSS and my weather is on my desktop. The greatest innovation in modern times, thanks to […]

Boy, us netheads sure are conspiratorial in nature aren’t we? There has been some big hubub mostly among wingnut sites about CNN airing a big black X over Cheney during a speech. It happens for somewhere around 1/25th of a second. Drudge got everyone in an uproar, including of course Malkin.
The whole […]

This just keeps getting better and better by the day. First Murtha steps forward and shows commanding leadership, that despite appearing to be teflon, gets sniped at by the right anyways (cue wicked witch of the west bicycle theme). That shit backfires and lingers as the messenger is not only killed, but comes […]

A comment over at Buckeye Senate blog got me in the mood to do some Photoshopping (Fireworks actually, but fireworksing sounds like crap):

The whole thing started with this post.
Damn, I forgot there was a truce!

Let’s add insult to injury shall we? Not only did the freshman Congresswoman from Ohio put her foot in her mouth, she also lied in the process! What a goof. The Cincy Enquirer has an article that outlines how Colonel Bubp did indeed call Rep. Schmidt, but did NOT ask her to […]

Alot of talk about the “In These Times” piece on Sherrod Brown. GrowOhio is obviously pround of it. Russo calls it a puff piece. Both true from their given perspectives.
A couple of things strike me and rub me the wrong way, really.
First off the allusion that bloggers are “cold sores” […]

Apparently he was done answering questions and wanted to leave. Exit…stage right! Doors locked…oh shit! WTF. Help. This does not happen in Umericah..hehe. I tried to escape, but it didn’t work. LMAO:

(hat tip Can of Fun)

Catching up from a hectic travel weekend. To save all who read this post the trouble, here is a tip: When they say be there an hour before an international flight, they mean ONE HOUR…not fifty minutes…not fifty five minutes. One freaking hour. Cost me 4 hours of my life that […]
