- Finally, a Washington sex scandal
  Posted by Billbar from Salon
  As the Wall Street Journal is reporting, federal investigators are looking into evidence that two defense contractors implicated in the Duke Cunningham bribery case may have supplied prostitutes for the now-imprisoned Republican congressman. The Journal says the investigators are also trying to determine if the contractors provided other lawmakers or their staffs with the same "free services."

- Take My Wives … Please!
  Posted by Billbar from Slate
  Since the conservative evangelicals prominent in today's GOP are deeply suspicious of the LDS Church, Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney's religion could cripple him in the Republican presidential primaries.

- GOP Blocks Measures Boosting Taxes on Oil Companies' Profits
  Posted by Billbar from Washington Post
  The actions of Republicans hashing out a tax bill behind closed doors indicate that, despite tough talk from the White House and Capitol Hill, the party is not ready to hit the oil companies hard -- even on measures that have broad support in the Senate.

- Can Republicans Put Country Before Party?
  Posted by Billbar from firedoglake
  The bottom line is that the Republican Party today is so weak, so ethically challenged, so lacking in morals and integrity that Republican members of Congress, Senate and House, are willing to go to any lengths to save George W. Bush.

- The AmTaliban leans hard on the GOP to deliver the social agenda
  Posted by Billbar from Pam Spaulding
  The whining bible beaters are not satisfied with the progress the Bush administration and Congress have made on implementing the theocracy. The AmTaliban has made it clear that if Congress doesn't act on abortion and gay marriage pronto, something bad (as in sheeple staying home on election day) is going to happen.

- The GOP's Betrayal On Speech
  Posted by Billbar from Washington Post
  Traducing the Constitution and disgracing conservatism, they used their power for their only remaining purpose -- to cling to power.

  Posted by Billbar from firedoglake
  DeLay and the GOP were very good at ripping off the nation but they left the country vulnerable, weakened and poor, ill-equipped to meet the challenges of a new century.

Democrats May Kick Out Joe Lieberman If He Addresses The Republican National Convention

Addressing the Republican convention would be in the true spirit of "reaching across the aisle"... republicans have been doing it for years and it would be a welcome change.

About time. After the ‘08 elections, we won’t need Joe anymore. If the Republicans can stand him, they can have him.

Think Progress » GOP convention button asks, ‘If Obama is president…will we still call it the W

Americans ARE ready for Obama. He WILL be the next president. His policies will be no great breakthrough. But…his presence in the whitehouse will be.
If you want to fear this guy…fear his politics…NOT his race… OR his church.

And why would an African church in the U.S. not recognise America’s racism? Excluding historical American racial history for a moment, are you forgetting that Africans were not allowed by law to even learn about Christianity until long after reconstruction? Africans were not allowed to read, including the Bible. Even after reconstruction, Africans were barred from attenting White churches until well into the 1970’s. I remember, I was there and have had the experience of being told I was not welcome at an all-White church in NYC. I had to find a "Black" church were I was accepted.
To ignore this history is revisionist and dismissive of the history of traditional Europocentric racism. There is nothing anti-American or anti-White in what this church teaches. The U.S. has a long and sorry history of violent anti-Indigenous and anti-African bias, so it would be foolish to think that the theology of a people subject to such repression would not reflect this history and experience. If White American racism and genocide did not exist in the first place, such ideologies let alone churches would never have developed because their would have been no need. And to suggest that such attitudes and practises have ceased is to callously deny the obvious.

Americans are ready for a black president, but not this one,. He himself is all about skin color. He sat in church for 20 years that was all about race.
