So… I snuck away to the beach for a few days and ignored the news. I didn’t turn on the TV, I barely checked the news online and I only once looked at the newspaper. What a great escape. The weather was fine, I got lot’s of rest and I’ll need it in the week [...]

Whoops! Got a little chatty with the ol’ ball n’ chain the ol’ man SSG Dizzy, today, then got caught up in a lot of necessary real life stuff. Who knew growing a rock could be so much work (true story)? Except for that time of month, “better late than never”, I always say.

A lot has been said in the mainstream media about Sarah Palin’s positions on various points of policy. As television viewers we have been subjected to hearing trivial items about her life such as winning a beauty pageant two decades ago from some no name town of a few thousand people. However, very little has [...]

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 [...]

Finally back from my much needed summer break. Not sure if anyone really missed me, but I have to send a shout-out to all my chicas (and hombres) who had my back while I had my guard down.
Let’s jump right in, to today’s Ten Post Round-Up, why don’t we? The last few days have shed [...]

I got a message from Dem Daily blogger Donnie McDaniel earlier today that he was getting ready to evacuate his place in Houma, Louisiana ahead of Hurricane Gustav, which is currently packing one hell of a whallop. Donnie first came to The Dem Daily a few days after Katrina. Stay safe Donnie…
Democratic nominee, Barack Obama is [...]

Ok. Let’s get down to it. A former beauty queen, with no substantive political experience, who is anti-choice and a creationist , and therefore anti-science, is now supposed to become the Vice President. She would be just one heatbeat away from the Presidency. Doddering around the Oval Office will be her elderly President. One heartbeat [...]

If you are confused by the choice of a person who has very little political experience and no national experience, join the crowd. If you said, “Sarah who? Who the hell is she?” Join the crowd. Let’s flesh out a little bit of history of Sarah Palin.
A former beauty queen ( no kidding), she is [...]

Joe Biden met with delegates from his home state of Delaware today, The Caucus reports. Biden was “emotional and apparently exhausted” as he “ventured out early this morning to address,” the delegates.
“I just want you to know that this is a great honor, this is a great honor being nominated vice president of the United States [...]

One of my first thoughts last night when I heard the news that Senator Joe Biden was Obama’s VP pick, was if Kerry would end up chairing the Senate Foreign Relations Committee.
Apparently, I wasn’t alone in that thinking:

I was very sad to read earlier today that Stephanie Tubbs Jones had passed away. Tubbs Jones died “after suffering a brain hemorrhage caused by a burst aneurysm.” She was 58.
Hillary Rodham Clinton, whose presidential candidacy Tubbs Jones had embraced, and her husband, former President Bill Clinton, recalled Tubbs Jones as “one of a kind” [...]
