Honest differences are often a healthy sign of progress...Mahatma Ghandi

Illinois Governor Arrested in Obama Successor Probe

It's about time the dirty rotten scoundrel got arrested. I am a democrat from Illinois and I just want to make it clear that we have been trying to obtain evidence to have him impeached for quite a while now.

Waxman coup has loud echo on K Street

I think that Rep. Waxman has the potential to impact regulations for the auto industry and other corporations especially since he reigns from California where smog and global warming fears have escalated the charge for reforms.

Sources: Richardson a 'serious contender' for Commerce job

I would love to see Gov. Bill Richardson get this position. I was kinda bummed when Obama didn't have him as a running partner but I do believe that he will do a great job as Commerce Secretary

The 20-Hour Workweek

I think that this story is spot on. It is nearly impossible to verify the true impact of the economic instability on our workforce.

The "Bitch" and the "Ditz"

I think that it is fair to say that women are subjected to more scrutiny that men are. We are deemed as indecisive emotional rollercoasters no matter what we do.

India sets target of 28 toilets a minute

650 million Indians are without a pot to piss in....literally. I think that the government has taken on a huge project and I hope that they can reach their goal of toilets for everyone by 2012.

Some choice words for the beggars

I think that the automobile industry needs to come up with a strategy to get themselves out of the gutter. Like the article states, they can't expect for the government to just give them $25 billion when they are not taking any real initiative to change.

Change in Congress More Than a Slogan

I hope that the changes being made in Washington will bring about real change in the way we work together in politics to create advancement in technology, energy policies, environmental policies, the economy, etc.

Top companies urge Congress to go green

I think that is essential that large corporations and companies join the movement to go green in the U.S. Without the approval of these companies our government would be unable to improve policies due to our capitalist motives.

Missile-defense advocates on edge

Missile defense advocates are scrambling to shield a system proposed for Eastern Europe from budget cuts or delays in the Obama administration.

Interior may get hand in climate rules

I think it is ridiculous that the Bush administration is getting away with this. They are trying to relieve the federal agencies from the duty of consulting with the Fish and Wildlife Service to determine whether a new policy would contribute to global warming.

Dems to Detroit: Try again

The Big 3 auto companies have put themselves in a monumental predicament. They need to express what they hope to accomplish with the bailout money before any consideration can be granted.

Green ally to head US energy panel

Having Mr. Waxman as the energy committee chairman should help tremendously with passing climate change legislation.

Albert Pujols powers way to 2nd NL MVP award

Albert Pujols is a stud! He's done it again! Nobody can say that he isn't a hall of famer in the making!!! Just look at the numbers: at least 30 home runs, 100 RBIs and finished in the top 10 in NL MVP voting for the first 8 seasons of his career.

Attend Troy Davis vigil tonight

This case definitely needs to be reopened. This is why it is necessary to reassess the death penalty in this country. Yes I believe that some people deserve to die for the crimes that they commit; however, I am not willing to kill one innocent person in the process.

Vaccine hope in MS link to virus

Sheffield Hallam University (UK) Explores Exercise Intervention For Multiple Sclerosis Sufferers

This has been something that has confused me. I have no idea what kinds of exercises will benefit me. I hope that this study will narrow it down.

Environment Causes Increase In Multiple Sclerosis Among Women Only

I imagine that if women seemingly have no traces of MS while in their 3rd trimester we need to do extensive research on how to harness these hormones.

Only Half Of Patients With Multiple Sclerosis Achieve And Maintain Response To Interferon Treatment, Study Shows

That is probably not good news to me. I have not started my treatment yet; however, my doctor states that he would like to try Interferon treatment. I hope I'm in the 50% group where it works.

Sources: Obama picks Daschle to head HHS

Hopefully, we do see the change that we need. I don't think that it's a bad idea to put some of Clinton's top advisors in these positions as long as they are pushing forward to change that will help our country stabilize the economy and reform our health care system.

UN stalls on extra troops for Congo

It is tragic that the world sits by and watches as these countries conflict internally. Mass genocide, rape, brutal antics on both sides. The U.N.

Bill to Extend Russian President's Term Advances

Yeah why don't the Russians ask America how much damage can be done by 1 president who is in office too long?

Minnesota Senate Rivals Dig In for Recount Battle

I hope Mr. Franken wins. Like the article stated, I think something fishy is going on in Minnesota

Ayers lashes out at 'dishonest' attacks

What I heard was that McCain did not want Palin to talk about the Ayers/Obama relationship but she went "rogue" and discussed it any way. Desperation people!

Freddie Mac Seeks Government Aid After $25.3B Loss

These two huge companies are ridiculous. They are struggling and the housing problem isn't even as bad as it was in the 80's. Makes you wonder how they allowed themselves to fall so badly. Oh yeah! We already know the answer to that!
