Thursday, December 21st, 2006You are Time magazine’s Person of the Year. But look at 2006 through a different lens and you’ll see another story, one that isn’t about conflict or great men.

Random Thursday
Thursday, October 26th, 2006+ This is why Cheney doesn’t pass the smell test. (Cynic advisory alert!) He began his first term as vice president with a closed door “energy reform” effort spearheaded by disgraced white collar thief Ken Lay and other big oil execs. They witheld from the public any of their findings or reforms. Within a year [...]
Right v. Right
Tuesday, October 17th, 2006It’s been an especially lousy week for the evangelical wing of the Republican party. Among the blows: In his new book Tempting Faith, former #2 man at President Bush’s Office of Faith-Based Initiatives David Kuo claims (among other things): After two years in the White House, I had come to realize that regardless of where [...]
