- Senate Rejects Democrats’ Call to Pull Troops
  Posted by Jeff from New York Times
  “The Republicans are rubber-stamping the president’s failed policy. That’s the message here.” says Harry Reid. Yell it from the mountaintops - 48 GOP Senators voted to keep soldiers in Iraq past 2008. Campaign on that in 2008 folks... No need to look up if your GOP Senator voted to keep troops in Iraq - only one didn't. GOP = Support for Bush Iraq Occupation.

- Local GOP chair called McKay about '04 election
  Posted by Jeff from Seattle Times
  Vance also spoke regularly with presidential adviser Karl Rove's aides about the election, which Democrat Christine Gregoire ultimately won by 129 votes over Republican Dino Rossi. But Vance said he doesn't recall discussing with the White House McKay's performance or Republicans' desires for a formal federal investigation.

- Voters' hunger for change threatens Republican dream of eternal power
  Posted by Jeff from Guardian UK
  Mr Luntz said his own polling and focus group research in the first two states in the primary process - Iowa and New Hampshire - had persuaded him that most Americans are hungry for a change. That desire, he believes, is unlikely to be met by the Republican candidates for 2008. "The Republican party seems to have lost the will to govern," he said.

- Senate gridlocks on Iraq war resolution
  Posted by Jeff from MSNBC
  GOP wants to fight on in Iraq - let's tie the war to their ankle: In the Senate, Reid has told lawmakers he will turn anti-terrorism legislation into a forum for debate over the war. He has met privately in recent days with fellow Democrats as the leadership plans its next move.

- Right wing thinktank offers $10,000 to dispute climate study
  Posted by Jeff from Rawstory
  And NetfFlix is offering a million dollar prize to outdo their movie recommendation scheme. Shows how valuable the right wing thinks disputing climate change is. If they were really serious, they'd pony up... I think they have their money on gay marriage.

- Woman Becomes Quadruple Amputee After Giving Birth - News
  Posted by Jeff from WFTV
  The next time the GOP suggests capping medical liability, cite this case: "The couple wants to know how she caught streptococcus, during labor or after. She doesn't know. She knows she didn't leave the hospital the same." Horribly tragic and sad.

- Leaked Document Reveals Giuliani’s '08 Strategy
  Posted by Jeff from New York Times
  One page in the document, according to The News, notes that he might “drop out of [the] race” as a result of “insurmountable” personal and political concerns. On this page, The News says, is a list of bullet points that seem to highlight those concerns: His consulting practice; Mr. Kerik; Ms. Hanover; his third and current wife,...

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.
