Arizona is fighting back against the LA City council decision to stop doing business with Arizona – By threatening to shut off electrical power from the Arizona Utility. Seems to me they just don’t get it.

Democrats, you gotta love em. Sometimes I think we will intellectualize ourselves right out of existence. I see comments to run a primary opponent against President Obama, people are not happy because a position of theirs is not being given top billing. Then you have comments about how great President Obama is, basically because he is getting something done and is not Bush or McCain. Apparently the fact that Obama is a pragmatist is not enough; he needs to be an almost revolutionary or mythic figure to make people happy. So the real problem is how do you make everyone happy?

My 8 year old daughter is watching the kid inauguration, and with her laughter I have even more hope for the future. My son (only 4 months old) is less enthusiastic but is watching none the less. Every time she watches the Jonas Brothers or Corbin Blue I feel the need to ground her until she’s thirty but that's because she's my little girl. But as I cried yesterday at the inauguration special, I cry watching her having her moment during this extraordinary event.

I do not have much information on this just a phone call from My wife watching WGN news in Chicago. This ass is just going on like nothing happened. I am so angry right now...

With all the problems in the world Blagojevich is going to stir the pot again for his own benefit. I have nothing against Roland Burris, in fact he would be a good choice, but this has nothing to do with him and everything to do with Blago! PE Obama has enough to worry about without this crap – and so do we. He is not only doing this for himself but giving a rally cry to the Illinois Republicans and the GOP in general. Trust this so-called democrat to hand a senate seat to the Illinois GOP. I am sick of this asshole.

I am not going to try to become a lawyer or and expert on the Supreme Court, so I will just give out the facts as I know them. A second case contesting Obama’s eligibility to be President of the United States has been distributed for Conference on December 12.

Sorry if this has already been posted, I will delete if it has. But I was dumbfounded to see this at the top of First Read onMSNBC. Now I know the right wing fringe groups have been pushing this crap but now it is getting play in "traditional" media. Slow news day? Crashing economy not enough?

I pay my taxes and like Vice-President elect Joe Biden I feel it is my patriotic duty to pay them and support the institutions that make our country what it is. For that I expect the local, state and federal government to protect my civil rights - well at least now that the Bush administration is on its way out. Gay, lesbian and transgender persons and couples pay their taxes too, thus they should be granted the same rights and services as I expect to get. If you deny anyone paying taxes into a system ANY rights granted under that system; we must call it what it is – Taxation without Representation.

HR 4157 with the misleading title "The sanctity of Human Life Act, which is co-sponsored by freshman congressman Peter "Rubber Stamp" Roskam, declares that life starts at fertilization (not conception – fertilization, more on this later). This means an embryo, or more accurately a zygote, created by the act of fertilization, whether by natural means or with medical help, has all the rights of any person currently walking and breathing. Don’t believe me? A sample:

...the life of each human being begins with fertilization, cloning, or its functional equivalent, irrespective of sex, health, function or disability, defect, stage of biological development, or condition of dependency, at which time every human being shall have all the legal and constitutional attributes and privileges of personhood.

This legislation is stunning in its simplicity (the bill is only three pages long) and would redefine all current requirements for the term "Human Life," as it applies to laws, Statutes, or even constitutional protections.

Be afraid.

Damn! Dan Seals beating Mark Kirk; Melissa Bean holding off a republican businessman in a heavily republican district; Bill Foster leading Jim Oberweis in Dennis Hastert's old district, and now the Tribune endorses the democratic challenger Jill Morgenthaler over the republican incumbent Peter "Rubber Stamp" Roskam. To be fair they did endorse Tammy Duckworth over Roskam two year ago but this is an endorsement over an incumbent republican.

Wow

For the past several years I have been going to the same place to vote, both in the primary and general elections. Now all of a sudden it changed and the scary thing is that my wife and I might have missed the notice that came in the mail - it was an unremarkable postcard that looks just like the postcard we get to confirm registration status each cycle. Why did they change my polling location? Especially between the Primary and the General election?

The answer is simple.

On Wednesday WTTW held a debate between Jill Morgenthaler and Peter "Rubber Stamp" Roskam. I wanted to get the link of the debate out to everyone and I have not seen this in a diary yet. I will beg for forgivness if I missed it.
