Democratic Congress: Republican Lite

It is simply outrageous that our Democratic Congress is rolling over for Bush.

He has the worst approval EVER and he has managed to get what he wanted from Congress. Let him veto the FISA bill.

I'm sure a I will get a solicitation letter from the DLC or DNC in the next day or so, begging for money to fight Bush. What a joke.

Our country did not start with Dems & Republican. When our country was facing a crisis, a third party emerged.

There is no time like the present for a strong third party.

Booman Tribune: Defining Patriotism

Let's see in these difficult economic times, a citizen will consider voting against her best economic interests because of a flag pin?

Is is patriotic to vote for invading a country for no real reason?
Is it patriotic not to provide care for those soldiers who failed to die from their injuries?
Is it patriotic to vote for No Child Left behind?
Is it patriotic to vote for NAFTA?
Is is patriotic to vote for someone who has historically failed to work well with others?

Wrap yourself in a flag and watch our educational system fail to produce graduates who can compete globally.

Wrap yourself in a flag and watch our jobs disappear.

Wrap yourself in a flag and watch prices soar because the oil industry has successfully blocked or derailed alternative fuel sources.
Wrap yourself in a fucking flag as you pray that the bridge your are crossing doesn't collapse....

I need fresh air.....

Obama rumbles through Paoli

Obama's train tour has introduced Paoli to the nation. Booman has a great slide show on his site which truly captures the excitement of the event. The Whistle stop was like no other event. Four Amtrak rail cars, a sunny day, a crowd of 3K......

The success of the event highlight's Obama's ability to couple the old fashion techniques with new technological tools. We were notified via e-mail of this Truman like event.

As the Clintons bitch and moan, what seems lost on them, is the fact that Obama is running a well organized, managed and funded campaign. Period. The wheels fell off of the Clinton Campaign in February. She underestimated Obama. Lack of planning, arrogance or worse incompetence. Sound familiar?

I have been working as a Co-Regional Resource Coordinator for Obama. Our Region is made up of the Main Line (Wayne); a recovering steel town (Phoenixville), and rural towns such a Avondale, West Grove and Kennett; a snapshot of the PA demographic.

I have seen from the ground level the excitement inspired by Obama. He has generated an increase of new registered voters. My 21 year old daughter helped, without any arm twisting, me with voter registration.

As I shared with a dear friend of mine, Obama has already changed the political landscape. He finds this position unacceptable, "a moral victory is not enough, he must win", he counseled me. Did I mention he is a brilliant attorney? I wouldn't have him any other way. I digress.

The counties that delivered Rendell to Harrisburg will deliver a PA victory for Obama.

Rove's departure, the untold story

"That's why I think there might be more to Rove's decision to step down. Like the two above, it may be that Rove is stepping down for reasons other than the run of the mill political scandal. Why hasn't anyone considered the possibility that Rove literally got caught with his, or someone else's, pants down?"

I could only hope the pants belong to the Independent Democrat.
