I was also inspired by "So how's that hopey, changey thing workin' out for ya". Instead of a list off-the-top of someone's head, these should be in a database. They should each have their own page, and each should have at least three sources pointing to reliable news stories.

And they should have friendly URLs, so that we can put them on billboards. Something like "democrats.org/pellgrants"

What kind of billboards? These:

Just a quick follow-up to my earlier post about my plan to start a mini-campaign exposing my Representative's voting on the insurance-expanding, deficit-reducing health care bill.

I don't have what you'd call discretionary income. In fact, I'm doing everything I can just to get rid of my credit card debt that's been haunting me since 1997. But I can afford $1 a day if it'll help spread the good news about health reform, and more specifically, the fact that my Representative, Kenny Marchant of Texas, voted against it.

If what I'm about to describe already exists, please let me know in the comments, but I haven't seen one yet, so here goes:

You and I are aware that when the middle class does well, everybody else does well, too. And yet, there are millions of middle-class Americans who are fooled into thinking that they should vote Republican, because Republicans will bring about tax cuts. Republicans do bring about tax cuts, but they benefit the already-wealthy instead of the vast majority of Americans. That's just one example of the mindset we need to change.

Why are we still worried about whether reform includes a public insurance option? The president went before Congress and outlined very clearly the bill he wants to see, nay, the bill he's willing to sign into law. Then they put it up on the official White House web site. It states:

I got an e-mail asking for my signature on a petition to censure Joe Wilson for calling the president a liar during his speech last night. I don't personally care much that he acted like a toddler, even if it's specifically against the House Rules of Decorum. I think a better tactic to combat Joe's action is to demand to see his evidence.

Next time you're setting up, or helping to set up, a townhall meeting, and you've been warned weeks in advance of a strategy by the opposition to shout you down, here's what you do:

One of the fun things about living in an Information Age is that we not only have near-instant access to financial data, but also a multitude of data sources to look at. It seems there’s a new report every day with updated economic news and forecasts.

I live in Texas. I never thought I would live in Texas, but things happen, and here I am. I was raised in New Jersey and thought that "yankees" were just baseball players until I moved down here. Fortunately, I'm in Dallas, so people tend to be better educated and subsequently vote with their brains instead of their emotions. (I'm not just being snarky, there have been many many studies. People with more education vote Democratic. Check it out.)

I'm an idealist, I realize that.

But I need someone to convince me that we should allow filibustering to continue. I understand that there are already some restrictions on the process, but I want more. I think it should be outlawed.

I don't think she'd be able to pull off a run for national office ever again, for one basic reason: YouTube.

Four years from now, assuming that President Obama is at least an average President, people will have learned that no, he's not a Socialist, or Muslim (who, as a people, we have no problem with, right, everybody?), a terrorist, or even a friend to terrorists.

In light of this "new" knowledge, Sarah Palin's remarks, which will undoubtedly be "unearthed," will seem perfectly absurd. We can point out the half-dozen or so rumors she willingly spread.

What's more, we will be armed with proof that she didn't know what the Vice President does, or understand the purpose of the First Amendment.

She is sunk. Thank you, YouTube.
