One of the common memes I read on pro-gun websites is the overwhelming need to protect one’s self and family from violent home invaders intent on killing you and your family.
Well, in New York City - population 8 million - they are on track to have fewer than 500 homicides, and if trends hold just […]

George Bush, after meeting Vladimir Putin in 2001:
I was able to get a sense of his soul, a man deeply committed to his country and the best interests of his country.
But this weekend…
The OSCE’s election monitoring unit announced earlier this month that it would not attend Russia’s election, saying Moscow had refused to provide visas […]

I spent a good portion of my free time last week playing Assassin’s Creed on my Xbox 360. Fun game. Interestingly, you play as an Islamic assassin named Altair, and you assassinate Templars (and non-Christians working with Templars) in 1191AD (during the Third Crusade). Assassination targets include prominent historical figures that died […]

It looks like the Republican candidates have run out of conservative christian endorsements and they are now looking for endorsements from some more colorful characters…
Yesterday Mike Huckabee picked up the ever-important pro wrestler endorsement from former pro wrestler “The Nature Boy” Ric Flair.
Sometimes called “The Dirtiest Player in the Game”, Flair’s signature illegal moves included […]

Even though everyone knows he was a drunk and did coke, George Bush has never admitted to his alcoholism or cocaine abuse.
Which pretty much sounds like Bush’s whole political career: one mistake after another without ever admitting fault.
America is sick of his bravado and his lies. America is ready for something different.
So when […]

I just read a post over at King’s Right Site titled Here’s why people SHOULD be allowed to carry guns! about a horrible crime in Little Rock, Arkansas.
It goes something like this: A guy stops at Wal-Mart at 2:30AM to buy some pants for thanksgiving dinner. On the way out he gets robbed […]

On the drive up to Cleveland for Thanksgiving dinner yesterday I listened to a great slate podcast about the secularization of Thanksgiving.
Funny stuff, indeed.
And here I was just thinking this was just a nice, american holiday where people get together with their families. No miracle births or special candles. Just a nice […]

There is a great deal that I’m thankful for as I sit here preparing my family to join with other family members and visit, eat, and watch football. Here is a short list of the things one progressive blogger is thankful for as it relates to this political blogging thing:
Joseph and Brian - These […]

Video 4 in our weeklong progressive series.

The WSJ is reporting that wingnut Christian activist Don Wildmon, founder of the American Family Association, is at it again- this time attacking Lowe’s over their Christmas tree (sorry- Family Tree) ads:
Last week, someone brought to chairman Don Wildmon’s attention that Lowe’s Cos. holiday catalogue had a two-page spread of decorated trees it labeled “Family […]

Everytime I end up over at BuckeyeInstitute.org I find they are trying to push themeselves as a non-partisan organization- which we all know just isn’t true.
I suppose they think that if people really believe they are a non-partisan organization then people might actually believe their so-called “research” is not just skewed, right-leaning, partisan propaganda.
So today […]

Though I’ll admit Mac cover ads are a bit played, but this gets a strong point across. I’d venture to guess when fully defined, most would admit their progressive leanings. Conservatism is a Con.
Video 3 in our weeklong progressive series. This site was, afterall, started as a “progressive political playground”. […]

Ron Paul IS GQ’s “Dark Horse of the Year”!
Congratulations, Dr. Paul.
It’s been a really great few week for Ron.
He raised over $4.2 million in a single day from supporters on the internet.
Other supporters in Indiana shipped out 10,000 silver Ron Paul dollars! (sorry, the Government seized the rest)
And now this wonderful honor from GQ […]

I love auctions! I only wish I was going to be in town this weekend to attend the next State of Ohio Warehouse Auction which will be held this Saturday, November 24, 2007 here in Columbus.
According to the DAS website:
The State of Ohio periodically declares a large variety of articles to be surplus […]
