Folks, the Democrat Party and their friends in Missouri law enforcement are at it again. Just today Big Government goons forced a thriving small business to close up shop for good. This business was run by a former US Marine and had served the community of Jefferson City for years.

Rod Jetton & Associates was a political consultancy. The brainchild of former Missouri House Speaker Rod Jetton - a bona fide American patriot - RJ&A was "dedicated to electing commonsense conservative leaders to government."

It was this bold mission that no doubt ran afoul of Obama's New Socialist Order. After months of harassment from government authorities, Mr. Jetton announced today that he would be closing his thriving business and laying off all its employees.

Most liberals probably think of feminism as a progressive political movement concerned with promoting core democratic values like equal rights, peace, and social justice. The evidence for this claim has always been thin, and it has been thinning throughout the course of this historic Democratic primary campaign as one prominent feminist after another has abandoned their long-held political principles to support Hillary Clinton's gender-based campaign.

This blatant act of in-group solidarity triumphing over reason, has irked me for quite some time. [Do people really think its any more justified to vote for a women because she's a woman, than it is to vote for a man because he's a man?] But I was never actually pissed off....until today.

This is an objective attempt to score the recent debate. Author is an undecided primary voter.

1. Bill Richardson

Richardson picked up Obama's VA fumble and ran in all the way back. He came off as more knowlegable about domestic issues than anyone else on the stage.

2. Joe Biden

Biden scored major points in his intense Darfur response. Public election plea helped as well.

Australian Prime Minister John Howard made remarks to a television station recently insinuating that the Democratic Party- and Barack Obama in particular- were terrorist sympathizers.

"I think he's wrong," Mr Howard said yesterday. "I think that would just encourage those who wanted completely to destabilise and destroy Iraq, and create chaos and victory for the terrorists to hang on and hope for Obama victory. If I was running al-Qaeda in Iraq, I would put a circle around March 2008 and pray, as many times as possible, for a victory not only for Obama but also for the Democrats."

Intro

Currently headlining RedState- DailyKos's closest analouge on the right -this picture shows perhaps more clearly than anything else how the Republican party is morgaging its future and is in danger of being shut out of power for the next 20 years.

Its boldness in insulting the Democratic Party has attracted some amusement in the blog-plugged parts of Washington. The uber-insider Hotline even had a post about about it. But rather than being insulted I shall argue that Democrats should welcome this new virluent strain of trash conservatisim.

This image's snarky confidence that average working people would respond favourably to an association between the party that 54% of the American people voted for in the last election and the spead of global communism isn't meerly ahistorical and anachronic to the degree of beging ludicrous.

It also reveals just how much it hasn't yet hit the Republican party that 2006 was not an abberation, but a turning point.

France 24

Today France 24 makes its debut. The network is an effort funded by the French government to create a "French CNN" that will counterbalance the dominance of CNN International and BBC World in 24 hour global news.

A political effort to the core, the network was created in response to the Iraq War crisis of 2003 when anti-war voices were practically censored in an international news media driven by American and British offerings.

France 24 is really two networks- one in English and one in French with a third network in Arabic due in mid-2007.

Both networks will be available in live streaming format at France24.com starting at 2:30 PM EST.

Hello Daily Kos!

I'm a politically active Democratic college student who's a new member to this site.

I've enjoyed the information I find here, especially the process oriented, electioneering stuff I enjoy most.

I've played around with a few diaries, (one I'm particually proud of), and have gotten a pretty warm reception.

I hope I can repeat that reception with this next diary, although I fear that because of the topic- I may not.

The topic is of course religion, or the virtues of a lack thereof.

In the runup to the 2004 Presidential elections Georgia's highest ranking old coot, Sen. Zell Miller (D), endorsed President Bush's reelction campaign by famously saying the Democrats were "a national party no more."

Miller coined the phrase and used it as a refrain in his effort to keep George Bush in power.

He even wrote a book about it. Read More

The big post-racist ad debate is about to start! Its the final debate in a dead heat race that could determine the Senate this year.

Many questions will soon be answered. How will Ford respond to Corker's racist, negitive ads? Take the high road? Or come back swinging?

This debate MAY determine the direction of our nation for the next two years.

The live video can be found here:

You can't make stuff like this up.

Apparently Nevada gubernatorial candidate Jim Gibbons was accused of assulting a single mother last Friday.

Chrissy Mazzeo made three 911 calls that night in which she told operators that she had been assulted by the Republican Congressman. Read More

As Senator John McCain tacks to the right to gain his party's 2008 presidental nomination, his poll numbers against a hypothetical Democratic candidate are falling.

A Marist poll taken at the end of September shows that McCain scores 48 percent against Hillary Clinton's 42. McCain's numbers are down four points from Feburary, while Clinton's have risen by one. The undecideds in the hypothetical matchup rose from 6 to 9 percent.

On the Question "Who do you want to run for President?", McCain plummeted from 56% in Feburary to 47% in September. Read More
