Political News, Progressive Commentary, Liberal Opinions and Common Sense Conversation…

The No-News, No-Column Column

I don’t have a column this week.
You see, I analyze and interpret the news, trying to find something that others haven’t touched. When there’s lots of news, I have a playground of riches. But during the past week, there were only two stories, and every reporter, columnist, commentator, pundit, bloviator, and blogger weighed in on [...]

Mammogram Madness

There’s been a lot of controversy in the past couple of days over the release of a new recommendation from the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force about the age women should start getting mammograms.
The panel’s new recommendations represent a significant departure from existing guidelines, and have caused widespread concern since they were announced on Monday. 
Personally I’m [...]

It’s moving day again for me… I’ll be back online in a couple of days…

Obama’s Press Conference

I watched Obama’s press conference tonight, as I am sure most of our readers did as well. I felt overall he handled everything that was thrown at him with great confidence and aplomb. Obama used the press conference to stress the concept that “his budget and policy prescriptions are exactly what’s needed to get nation’s [...]

Detroit’s Big Three: Actual CEO Opening Statements To Congress

I’ve been pounding an unpopular table in several places trying to show people that a $25 Billion investment/loan is critical for the US and makes common sense. I’ve taken a couple of days off from working on the subject. Today, I’ve finally found the opening statements of all three automakers to Congress.
I’m providing them below [...]

Going Fishin’ or Something…

Note to readers: I’ll be offline for the next couple of days taking care of some family stuff — packing up my daughter at college and bringing her home for the summer.
I hope that some of our other wonderful writers here will fill in some in my stead. In the meantime there’s always Memeorandum for [...]

A Woman Has What it Takes to Run for President

It’s been an incredible journey, readers, being here in the blogosphere supporting Hillary Clinton and I have to say although I’ve vowed to jump in and work towards defeating John McCain, the sadness of what could have been with Hillary Clinton as our next president will take a little time to mend.
I know that’s something [...]

From Hillary Clinton: I want you to know

 By our now readers all know that Hillary Clinton will officially end her campaign and support Barack Obama. It’s tough for many Clinton supporters to assimilate this news and yet, there’s so much work to be done and Hillary Clinton understands that.
The stakes are high dear friends and readers and this election has always been [...]

Wright Making Headlines Again

Rev. Jeremiah Wright has been back in the news over the past couple of days making headlines and stirring up more controversy:
After addressing the NAACP yesterday in Detroit, Jeremiah Wright travels to the heart of the media beast — the National Press Club in DC — where he has been speaking this morning. 
You can watch Wright’s NAACP [...]

I’m back!

Many were shocked at my thoughts on giving up the blogging. I sent word that I intended to extend my blogging tour of duty. Well folks, I’m back, and I have something to say. Prepare for blogger combat! I’m ready to fight! The Katrinacrat is back and ready to take some wingnuts to task. I [...]
