From Breitbart: "Former US vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin is expected to speak about US foreign policy and China in her first keynote speech outside North America, Hong Kong organisers said on Monday.  "We have asked her to address US foreign policy, to discuss her views on governance, healthcare, and of course, China," Jonathan Slone, chief executive officer of the Asia-focused brokerage, said in an interview with AFP." Let's hope somebody told the former governor that this is not...

Can we please put an end to this idealistic but unrealistic notion of bi-partisanship? How much clearer do the Republicans have to make it that they have no intention of supporting health care reform legislation, no matter what it contains or doesn't contain? And to follow up on last Thursday's post, how much longer until Democrats realize they can't expect reasonable debate with people who are clearly disconnected from reality?Two cases in point. It took...

According to WRAL News, a North Carolina news outfit, John Edwards is expected to admit he is the father of the 18 month old daughter of his former mistress, Reille Hunter.  Poor Elizabeth. Interesting quote from Edwards about the Clinton/Lewinsky affair in 1999:  "I think this President has shown a remarkable disrespect for his office, for the moral dimensions of leadership, for his friends, for his wife, for his precious daughter. It is breathtaking to...

I would like to make an appeal to President Obama and the Democrats in Congress, drop this attempt at bi-partisanship and get on with the business of passing health care reform. I understand the president's desire to include Republican ideas (as if they had any) and input into the proposed legislation, but as the town hall meetings across the country go on and the emotions intensify, one thing is becoming increasingly clear, you can't have...

A recipe for chaos:Take one part radio talk show hosts spewing hatred and racism on a daily basis. Add an entire cable television network devoted to inciting their easily misled, easily manipulated, viewers with a constant stream of lies and misinformation. Add a former vice-presidential candidate saying that the president of the United States wants to establish panels to decide who lives and who dies. Stir in numerous comparisons of that president to the likes...

Where did this end?In light of another mob scene at a Memphis town hall meeting on Saturday and yet another one planned for President Obama's appearance in New Hampshire on Tuesday, there is a must read post at Down With Tyranny about what has become of political discourse in this country and where history has shown us this could lead. The post is lengthy, but well worth the time. A few excerpts: "This is not...

If one didn't know of the history of the often confusing, often self-contradicting babbling from the semi-literate, barely intelligible, former governor of Alaska, Sarah Palin (aka the Wasilla Wingnut) one would find it difficult to believe that the same person made both of the following statements.July 27:"Democracy depends on you, and that is why, that's why our troops are willing to die for you. So, how 'bout in honor of the American soldier, ya quit...
