The “Shell Game” »

Obama continues his Master of the Universe tour,today landing in Germany. He has a big ol’ speech planned to wow them in Germany, and to get their votes. Oh, wait - they can’t vote for him! No matter, he is bound and determined that he will get massive support there. He even went so far […]

Backtracking with Barack — Corn Ethanol »

That’s a good thing even though I don’t really expected it to lead to the tough choices we need to make in the time frame we need to make them. To be honest, we are past the tipping point.

Hype? Let’s talk about “Hype” »

I originally posted this article last night at MyDD and at DailyKos.
================
Yes, this is a response diary.  But it will be long enough to stand on its own.  Every on Daily Kos is going crazy for a diary entitled I Refuse to By Into the Obama Hype.  It purports to compare Hillary’s Senate record to […]
