Media bias? You judge for yourself, from the FEC records of campaign contributions (here) by media and entertainment celebrities.
“Hurricane Season Ends Quietly,” reads the headline (here).
Don’t you think that Dubya deserves some credit for this?
Sorry if this is old news to you, but I just came across this hilarious blog . . . wuzzadem (the name hints at the POV).
re. senator-elect Jim Webb’s “speaking truth to power or whatever” with Dubya (reported here).
re. intra-Christian jockeying a la the Rick Warren dust-up. (prior post on Warren).
If you (a) pay attention to google ads snuggled around almost any and every article on the web, and (b) read a lot of political stuff, you have no doubt seen the ad for “the book George Bush doesn’t want your kids to read!!” . . . the book they call, “Why Mommy is a [...]
This just in, House Democrats appear to have been exaggerating, fudging, lying, over-reaching, demagoguing (whatever) in their campaign promise to “enact all of the 9/11 commission’s recommendations,” a “failure” about which the Dems have attacked the GOP.

Apparently, research data indicate that 80% of us grow up to vote in line with the way our parents voted. It was in an interesting article (here) about the “fertility gap” between the Right and Left.
But I’m interested to hear how true that is in the blogosphere, and to hear from you if you strayed [...]
I remember the jovial greetings from Lefties to one and all of the Conservative or Republican nature: Merry Fitzmas! Visions of White House indictments danced in their heads . . . of course, they were only “visions.” But I digress.
It appears that Federal Prosecutor Patrick Fitzgerald is prevailing before the Supreme Court on behalf of [...]
I just read an op/ed by Oliver “Buzz” Thomas over at the USAToday blog (here) about the church and homosexuality (hat tip Flanktwoposition, though Roger surely hoped to enlighten rather than annoy me).
