In the days leading up to the Democratic Primary election in Connecticut, incumbent Joe Lieberman accused Ned Lamont's campaign of hacking into the Friends of Lieberman website and disrupting their e-mail system.

Most, of course, wrote off the Lieberman camp as a bunch of whiny, sore losers with an appetite for blame biscuits. Most would mention that a fair amount of hard evidence has been presented since the accusation was made to show that no one is responsible for hacking Lieberman's website.

Which means that "most" have spoken too soon.

The truth is this: It was me. I crashed Joe's cyber-mojo. And I have the pictures to prove it. It was an ADVENTURE, let me assure you.

As many of you are undoubtedly aware, last week British Petroleum (BP) reported record profits that amounted to $55,000 - every minute.

BP has a large corporate campus in the city next-door to my hometown here in suburban Chicago. My father worked at this campus for 17 years, back when it was Amoco Oil. He was laid off in 1993, while BP and Amoco began to merge.

$55,000 struck me as a particularly poignant number, because it is roughly the amount (probably about $10,000 more, actually) that my father was earning annually at the time of his layoff.

So, I decided to spend my Sunday afternoon in leisurely fashion: I wrote this letter to my friends at BP:

The National Institute for Early Education Research released a study on Thursday saying that it expects the State of California would get back $2.78 for every $1 invested in its potential universal preschool program.

California's Proposition 82 will be voted upon in June. If the proposal goes through, it will create an annual, universal preschool program open to all four-year-olds...

Yesterday, the FDA voted unanimously to approve a vaccine that could wipe out the virus that causes roughly 70 percent of cervical cancer cases. Cervical cancer is the number two cancer killer in women.

You'd think, in the year 2006, that the development of a safe, effective vaccine that could prevent the deaths of 3,700 American women every year would be seen as a welcome breakthrough in the field of medicine.

Apparently, some people feel otherwise...

I've decided to jump in. I've been a sideline observer of DailyKos, among other liberal blogsites, for awhile now. Last week I finally joined DailyKos. I've even decided to plunk down the cash and purchase a domain and web hosting and start my own blog at www.notdamagedgoods.com.

I'm a twenty-two-year-old who grew up in a Republican home. Thankfully, I wasn't old enough to vote in 2000, because I probably would have voted Bush, purely out of ignorance... Read More
