I've had enough; I'm hereby calling on backup! As an Augusta, Georgia native, I've just "allowed" the Augusta Chronicle to be the right-wing-leaning publication that is, hoping that people were smart enough to think for themselves. That was a bit idealistic, though; to presume people were free-thinkers in your hum-drum medium-market southern G.O.P. haven. I want your help; this publication cannot be allowed to get away with the letters they allow to be published, nor the editorials they print on a daily basis. Blog with me, people; e-mail your letters to them, too. Most of all, let's EXPOSE this travesty of a publication for what it is - a right-wing fish-wrap.

Unlike in Cincinnati, where George W. Bush used a flank of Iraqi war veterans to keep the Reds' home-opening crowd from booing him out of Ohio (the next blue state), Vice President Dick (Duck!) Cheney attended RFK Stadium today to toss the Washington Nationals' home-opening first pitch. The crowd wasn't very welcoming, to say the least. More ------ Read More

To my pleasure and (frankly) shock, the Alexandria (La) Town Talk newspaper featured an editorial opinion today that essentially placed so much blame on Louisiana's political ills on the very people that need to be blamed...the legislators from throughout the state. Keep reading... Read More

Since Hurricane Katrina made landfall in Louisiana, it seems that the spine of the state's Democratic party has gone missing. Every day new information on state and federal governmental preparation and response to the storm comes out, the insinuations about her role fall by the wayside. Keep going.... Read More

I'm fucking sick and tired of Louisiana Governor Kathleen Blanco (D) getting smacked around by these conservative blabber-heads when they haven't the first fucking clue (or wear blinders to avoid seeing the truth) what did, has, and will take plce in Louisiana as a result of Hurricanes Katrina and Rita.

Let Nagin twist in the wind, folks.

Granted, the "numbers game" the wingnuts have played... turning 324 buses (70 of 'em useless) into 2 THOUSAND... IS galling, and the truth SHOULD be pointed out - in due time.

More importantly, though, it should be noted how many times Mayor Ray Nagin has tried to bury Governor Blanco AND the Democratic party every time he's had a chance to PARTICIPATE with the party.

The state-syndicated radio program hosted by Moon Griffon needs to be scrutinized and FLOODED with Democratic response phone calls.

Today, of course, they aired the usual right-wing parrot-listeners with comments such as "this wouldn't have happened if Bobby Jindal were governor," and "why did Blanco take 24 hours to answer the White House's request to take control of the situation on the ground?" Read More

I was wondering when it would happen. While our volunteers and military are picking up bodies in New Orleans, the White House has decided to try and revive their corpse of an administration by shifting blame. After suffering from a week of media coverage detailing a lack of response to rescue thousands from within the city, the White House is pinning the blame on Louisiana's (democratic) governor, Kathleen Blanco. To paraphrase Harry Truman, the "buck" apparently stopped short of the President's desk. Read More

We're now weeks removed from learning that influential consevative radio talk show host Armstrong Williams was on the Bush administration to push their agenda on an unsuspecting American public. And it's completley off our radar. Americans are more concerned with football players wiping their rears on opponents' goal posts than our thoughts and views being nuanced through our media (yet again).

Being someone who works in the media, I see advertisers "nuance" their message all the time to influence our audience to use their products/services. Sometimes their claims are so misleading or untrue, you hear them get slapped with "false advertising" claims. Why don't we do this with our elected officials and those who to aspire to be one, as well?

As a staunch Democrat, a believer in individual rights, a believer in equal rights for women, minorities, homosexuals and heterosexuals, a believer in peaceful plotting as opposed to privatized war mongering, I'm sick and tired of seeing our public offices being won by misleading advertising campaigns. So here's my solution. Read More
