Thanks to Ohio and Texas, it seems that Hillary campaign is still alive and kicking.
I am looking forward to a great 2008 when Fox news pundits grind their teeth when they see their guy 10 points behind all year in 2008.
I cannot wait to watch Fox news and see the vein popping on the heads of O'Reilly and Hannity. In fact, you can see it already in their obsession with Hillary.
Breaking : New plagiarism charges + Youtube. Is anything original with Obama?
Tue Feb 19, 2008 at 02:06:44 PM PDT
Apparently there is another incident of plagiarism. Just saw on Politico.com.
http://www.politico.com/...
This time, its just 2 sentences. But again, its taken from Deval Patrick. Apparently, the similarities between Deval Patrick and Barack Obama's speechs are due to the fact that they have the same campaign strategist ( David Axelrod ) and same speech writers.
Does Obama have any original message at all, or is this going to continue and we find that Patrick and Obama have been lucky to have great speech-writers for themselves?
I expect to be flamed beyond recognition and be banned from this site, but I also expect a lot of rec's from objective thinkers who can question without passion or prejudice.
*BREAKING* : Oil touches $100/Barrel at NYMEX
Wed Jan 02, 2008 at 09:39:33 AM PDT
For many years, we at Dkos have been talking about peak oil. Not only its now $100 a barrel, OPEC is finally and slowly turning in the wind and making statements that allude to peak oil. (which still a "concept" in right wing world). I guess geology is just as sinful as evolution for them.
Indisputable reasons why Edwards or Obama will never win the general.

This is an objective analysis of the situation from an independent viewpoint. Not a slash and burn diary. I dont give a damn as to who takes the nomination. I am looking forward to a great 2008 when Fox news pundits grind their teeth when they see their guy 10 points behind all year in 2008.

A comment on America's foreign policy - From a real Macaca.
Sat Sep 30, 2006 at 12:19:10 AM PDT
I was born and raised on the world largest democracy - India. For followers of Sen. Felix (R-VA), that's Macacaland, yeah....
that one, the one that's east of Pakistan and west of China.
Having lived in the world most powerful democracy (USA) and also world's largest democracy (India), I am in a unique position to make an assessment on what's going to happen OUTSIDE USA with this latest "Fuck Habeas Corpus, where's my water-board" bill that just passed one of the world oldest legislatures. Also, a little history on how quickly democracies can come unglued, even the robust and old ones backed by a well-written constitution.

Wed Oct 12, 2005 at 08:47:43 AM PDT
Something really really interesting to share with you all. Try out the following steps and see what happens...! You will have to then ask one question. Whether its a GOOGLE Failure or a USA Faliure?
- Go to www.google.com
- Type "failure" (without double quotes) in the search text box.
- Press "I'm Feeling Lucky" button just next to "Google Search" button.
- See what happens. Find it out yourself and laugh a lot. (Do not worry, its not going to harm your computer.)
- Share it with your friends and relatives before GOOGLE fixes this bug.

Vote on FCC crackdown. Poll here on tasteless halftime show.
Mon Feb 07, 2005 at 08:42:33 AM PDT
A lot of people thought that the FCC crackdown ruined the superbowl. It was a half time show without any glamour whatsoever. While we arent looking for porn during the game, there is a need to have some liberty as far as content goes and children can stay away from TV for four hours every once a year if their parents are good wimpy over the content.
The world got better in 2004 - Fox News. (Poll Included)

Here then, is the
Good News
I dont know what editors at the Fox News are smoking, but I guess that people who watch this channel actually believe it.
According to this article...
The world is less violent. In his book, "A History of Force," the historian James L. Payne (search) argues that when you adjust for population increases, over the course of history, the average citizen of the world has grown less likely to die a violent death caused by government, war or his fellow man. War, murder, genocide, sacrificial killing, rioting - all have tapered off over time.
Go figure. And all this time we kossacks were ranting about nothing. Thank God. Pheeewww. What a relief!!

Blue State Punishment -- Enrich the Reds at your expense
Thu Nov 18, 2004 at 02:03:54 PM PDT
From: Bobby Dash, Bolingbrook, IL.
We already knew that "W"s policies are geared towards the rich. He loves to see money flow from poor to rich. Now, for his second-term, he wants to see money flow from rich-blue states to poor-red states in addition to flowing money from poor to rich! It takes a very smart person to figure out how to successfully accomplish this!
Are you ready?....

Powell's Statement: Good or bad for Dubya?
Thu Nov 18, 2004 at 07:44:29 AM PDT
I dont know what to make of Powell's early morning statements -- Iran actively seeking delivery systems for its nukes and has secret unknown nuke facilities.
If Dubya wants to pursue Iran in his second term then its a blessing for him...coz if things go wrong again...he will way "Powell made me do it...he said Iran is evil".
But if Dubya is himself sick of managing wars and wants to get the hell out of Iraq and ignore Iran and North Korea...then this statement today is going to tie him down to his own theory of "Axis of Evil"(State of the union speech in 2002, he only wanted to go after Iraq but to make it look real...had to include Iran and North Korea...never mind that Iraq was backward in nuke program compared to both Iran and North Korea) and pursue Iran and North Korea whether he wants to or not.
And if Iran and Iraq are warzones at the same time...can anyone tell me with a straight face that there will not be a draft?
