    • Rep. Gillmor died in fall, autopsy suggests

      Posted by Jeff from Politico

      Congressmen die in falls all the time: The injuries sustained were consistent with a fall and the death appears to be accidental," said Det. Steve Gomez, a spokesman for the Arlington County Police Department. "We have no evidence of foul play." It was unclear what precipitated the fall. The medical examiner performed toxicology tests as a part of the autopsy. The results of those tests were not released.

      Report details Craig's disorderly conduct

      Posted by Jeff from Politicalticker.blogs.cnn

      Sounds like another closeted GOP member caught red umm... handed? In the report, the arresting officer alleges that Craig lingered outside a restroom stall where the officer was sitting, then entered the stall next door and blocked the stall door with his luggage.

      Wrath of the math: Why did Karl Rove quit?

      Posted by VincebusEruptum from Scholarsandrogues.wordpress

      That's the question on everyone's lips since the porcine political player announced he would be stepping down at the end of August. Of course, the excuse that he wants to spend more time with his family is horse puckey and we all know it--so what's really going on? Is he trying to give Bush political cover if he gets ensnared in one of the many investigations that keep leading back to...

      National GOP Multimedia Web Page Is ... Fox News Video Clips

      Posted by Jeff from electioncentral.tpmcafe.com

      If there was any doubt left that Fox News is just a media organ of the Republican Party, then take a look at this screen capture of the National Republican Senatorial Committee's multimedia page. You might think the term "multimedia" would imply that it's a collection of stuff from various news organizations, plus in-house content from the NRSC. It turns out, though, that it's nothing but ... a collection of Fox News video clips.

    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.
