In the form of a resolution, Congress took a hard slap at the United Nations Human Rights Council.
Basically, it goes like this. The United Nations formed a council to look into human rights violations and do what it can to assure human rights are respected all over the globe. With the continuing genocide in Africa, [...]

Apparently Barry Manilow decided to take a stand. He will NOT perform on the same stage as Elisabeth Hasselbeck. Apparently he’s afraid he will suffer the same fate as Rosie. I find this tactic kind of strange considering he performed before Hasselbeck twice last year. He apparently stated something to the effect he felt Hasselbeck [...]

Congress passed a resolution establishing September 11th as a day of rememberance. It honors those who died on September 11, 2007. It also honors those that eventually served in Afghanistan and Iraq. 334 Congressmen voted for it. 1 voted against. That one, was Dennis Kucinich, candidate for president. His reasoning is this:
“It is important that [...]

Trick question I know. It’s a tie.
From Rasmussen:
Surveys of 800 Likely Voters June 4-5, 2007 and June 6-7, 2007
This Week’s Favorability Ratings
Harry Reid - 19%
Scooter Libby - 19%
Actually it’s a double-trick question. Scooter Libby’s not elected.
And, I know a lot of people would suggest it’s a triple-trick question as there is no difference [...]

The new, kinder, gentler, Nancy Pelosi led Congress.
When the new Democrat controlled Congress took over in January, they got a reprieve, with about a 15% jump in approval ratings just for being there. Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid of the Senate came in with guns firing. They passed all kinds of major legislation [...]

President Bush’s favorability rating has hit traditional lows for a lame-duck president. Congress’s approvals are pretty much where they always are, which is pretty miserable. However, a LOT of people are saying this proves we need to be out of Iraq whether it means cutting and running, handing an entire country and military [...]

I dissed Hillary when she faked a Southern drawl in Alabama. That was just stupid and belittling. I dissed Obama for repeating heresay and screwing up simple numbers. This weekend Tommy Thompson blamed a bad hearing aid along with a cold, and a desperate need to pee for flubbing a gay rights [...]

I watched MSNBC this weekend for no other reason than my wife really wasn’t able to watch Bill O’Reilly. I’m not sure how she came to the conclusion MSNBC was less offensive, but we wound up there anyway. Anyways, they were harping incessantly on the latest presidential approval rating which had Bush at [...]

Yesterday Bush vetoed the Iraqi pullout bill. In that bill, it had emergency spending for the military as well. That was both expected politically, and I expected it for bigger reasons. Spending will be done one way or another until a proper funding bill is presented. The war won’t stop [...]
