Dem Convention - Day 1
Author: BobR    Date: 09/05/2012 12:48:55

Last night was the opening night of the 2012 Democratic convention. It was quite the contrast to the Republican convention. One of the biggest differences is that the candidate's name was actually mentioned. There was also a thought out progression to messages and the speakers.

Bonus Blog - Are you better off?
Author: TriSec    Date: 09/03/2012 21:33:26

I saw this making the rounds over the past weekend. Looks like Mitt is dusting off the old saw, asking everyone "Are you better off now than you were four years ago?"

Why We Need ID's
Author: velveeta jones    Date: 09/02/2012 14:56:29

What is all the controversy over showing that you're a true American citizen to vote? I mean, you need an ID to buy beer - at least for awhile until they stop asking and you wish they still would. You need an ID to drive, to apply for a school loan, to rent a car or buy a yacht. You need ID to open a bank account or get another credit card and you need ID to get a job most of the time. So why should it be any different for voting?

The Shrinking Presidency
Author: TriSec    Date: 09/01/2012 12:37:46

Good Morning.

Today is not about either Romney nor Obama. Ever notice how hard it is to get anything done in Washington?

It didn't used to be this way.

Romney Acceptance Speech - Snark Edition
Author: BobR    Date: 08/31/2012 12:53:27

Last night Mitt Romney accepted the nomination of the presidential candidate for the Republican party. He was completely overshadowed by the star power and generally bizarre spectacle of Clint Eastwood talking to an empty chair. Nonetheless he delivered a speech full of general terms, meaningless phrases about America, and attacks on a straw man version of President Obama which didn't resemble him in the least.

Here then is the text of his speech, with my inner and outer thought bubble added. I apologize for the length, but that's really Romney's fault, right?
