Finally we get a real report from the main stream media that actually sent reporters in the field to do objective research as to the material impact of the stimulus on our economy. It is a fact that had this stimulus not passed that we would have been in a depression. The numbers are ubiquitous. […]

I smell a bill in the making. I will likely not be completely happy but it is a start. President Barack Obama will meet Sunday with Senate Democrats on Capitol Hill, as a group of moderate and liberal senators weighed a new public option compromise in hopes of striking a deal by early in the […]

This is very important. If this comes through we will likely get a weak public option. But in said case we must prepare ourselves to get rid of the Senators over time that do not have the best interest of Americans. Upon this we will eventually modify the bill appropriately. In a breakthough in Senate […]

Andrew Sullivan gives me hope for a united country. If Andrew realizes that the values, morals, and outright viability of the Right is suspect, then I am sure many more on the Right while remaining Conservatives, will join Liberals and Moderates to reach a consensus to move our country forward.

So much for fiscal responsibility. Health care reform hangs in the balance. Its fate rests with a handful of “centrist” senators […]

President Obama takes a lot of spears in the back from the Left, Middle, and Right. He never seems frazzled which may be a testament to his upbringing and world experience. Many think he has too much in the fire. I am coming to the conclusion that this is by design and when the pieces […]

I just received a call requesting contributions from the Texas Democratic Party from a call center in Minnesota. There is likely similar occurrences in every one of our 50 states. I have donated to local, extra local, and national Democratic candidates over the last several years. I did this to work towards a progressive agenda […]

It is time for Congress to work for us and do what is in our best interest. The insurance companies have spent millions to try to indoctrinate Americans on the perils of a Public Option.
