I spent the weekend preparing for my move cross country, which I have been alluding to here for a while. I will finally be posting about it later this week. What I can tell readers now, is that the planned move has arisen out of the financial crisis our country is in.
As I noted here [...]

First, this isn’t Bush’s plan. It’s the plan of experienced financial leadership, in government and mostly outside, of pretty realistic people trying to overcome the bullshit passed years ago that caused this mess. Bush couldn’t explain the details of this plan if he had a….well he just couldn’t. [This is a long post but please [...]

As of this finishing of this article the Dow Jones is closed at 504 or 4.4% down. Most of you don’t remember the day in the 80’s when it dropped 600+ points in an afternoon based on an index of 3,000 or less. We survived and prospered thereafter. This sounds like a huge [...]

Unlike some folks, I actually look forward to work to get me away from blogging (as opposed to looking forward to blogging to wind down from work). It’s not the blogging so much as the news. And, when politics are involved, I really need a night or two away from the blogosphere. Truthfully, it’s kind [...]

There’s a lot of vim and vinegar being slung around the internets, today. It’s like there’s a hot political race going on…wait…my bad!
Part of the reason for all the fire and brimstone, methinks, is due to the lack of truthiness from some quarters (I won’t say where. I will say it starts with a letter [...]

By the time you read this post you will either have recovered from the Palin Speech Drinking Game or had enough Pepto to settle your tummy. Of course, if you are like me, you probably opted for a refreshing rerun of CSI.
For those of you who prefer your Republican/Conservative news in bite-size portions, today’s Ten [...]

You’ve got to give McCain credit. By welcoming Palin into his campaign, he sure livened things up quite a bit in this election (and no, I’m not referring to you-know-what, unless you know what is a bridge or something).
Truth be told, I don’t blame him for his (apparently) monumental screw-up. There was not much more [...]

A federal grand jury indicted Senator Ted Stevens of Alaska today, on “on seven felony counts alleging that he lied to conceal his acceptance of $250,000 in gifts and services from a now-defunct Alaska oil services and construction company.”
Stevens notified senior Republicans that he’d abide by a Senate Republican rule and temporarily step down from [...]
