Earlier this year, several reports started circulating once again about the end of the world as we know it. This time via an asteroid that has an incredibly remote chance of hitting Earth somewhere around 2036. This was fairly immediately after Congress told NASA in 2005 it needed to spend more time finding what is [...]
The Democrats haven’t even officially taken over the government yet, but they are already tossing out anything Republican as fast as they can. Along with that, I guess we can totally dismiss Bush’s "conservative compassionism": Its not just committees our influence within the House Democratic caucus will grow enormously, Mr. Rangel said in an interview.

Zacarias Moussaoui’s lawyer pleaded with jurors Monday to send his client to prison for life "the long slow death of a common criminal" rather than give the terrorist conspirator the martyrdom he seeks through execution The prosecution argued that death does not mean martyrdom, Moussaoui’s wishes don’t matter and the only person charged in the [...]
FEMA’s looking for a new leader. The leading candidate apparently is a fellow named David Paulison. Now, I know practically nothing about David Paulison, but him potentially being named leader of FEMA has some people rather distraught. However, the reason Paulison’s probably going to get the position beyond other people’s objections is because apparently no [...]

The incentives would be dispersed among oil, natural gas, electricity, nuclear and renewable energy companies. The House adopted the bill in a lopsided vote of 275-156, drawing support from 75 Democrats. The Senate [...]
