Obama Finally Figuring Out How To Deal With Republicans? - Mercury Rising 鳯女
by Phoenix Woman at 27 Jan 2012 11:34
Nice to see the President landing a few hard blows on right-wingers for a change: Republicans said it was unconstitutional. An overreach of executive power

Who manage to register lower IQs than him (somehow there are some of them)Rick Perry’s dismal showing in the presidential contest has plunged his approval among Texans to its lowest level in a decade, and more than half say in a new poll that he should not seek re-election as governor.

First, he seems to have gotten most of the Establishment Wingnuts against him and that's no small feat for a former GOP Speaker of the House.  Second, he tried to smack around Wolf Blitzer but Wolf came out the winner

Civil liberties v. civil rights (by Suzie) - ECHIDNE of the snakes
by Suzie at 27 Jan 2012 05:43
What do you think when you hear the phrases "civil liberties" and "civil rights"? I hope a discussion of the differences will shed light on why Glenn Greenwald and others considered progressive have praised Ron Paul. Definitions vary, but "civil liberties" generally refers to rights guaranteed by the government for all citizens, while "civil rights" describes laws passed to remove barriers that keep certain groups from enjoying the same liberties that others have

Two Articles on Apple - ECHIDNE of the snakes
by echidne at 26 Jan 2012 21:25
It's an awkward juxtaposition, to say the least.

Former Minnesota State Senate Majority Leader Amy Koch, who resigned that post after admitting to an “inappropriate relationship” with a male Senate staffer widely suspected to be Michael Brodkorb, dropped a small hint earlier this week as to her Dimmesdale’s identity: She [Amy Koch] said that for legal reasons she won’t name the staffer, who has since left his job at the Capitol. Anyone care to divine how many male Senate staffers became ex-Senate staffers during the period starting December 16th, 2011 and ending January 23, the date of the interview that forms the basis for the KARE story on Senator Koch?
