About a month ago, I posted a diary concerning efforts by House Democrats to keep the EPA's libraries open now that George Bush has decided the best way to stop environmental regulations is to lock up the EPA's records and books. The good news is we now have two Democratic Senators who have joined the fight. Read More

A friend passed along the following email, which she received via a property rights mailing list she didn't know she belonged to. I think it's an interesting read for all of us who are working to kick Rep. Richard Pombo's butt out of office in two weeks, and it also gives a good look at all the support being given to Jerry McNerney -- a great Democrat. Read More

Today John Nichols' blog editorial in The Nation brings up an important point that most of the media are forgetting. In the 2004 presidential debates, it was John Kerry who warned that George Bush's mishandling of North Korea would cost America -- and it has. Read More

Ready for some good Democratic news? As you may have read on this board, the Bush administration is cutting the EPA's library budget by over 30 percent or $2 million, which is forcing the EPA to close libraries and lock up information that is vital to enforcing environmental laws.

On October 1, the EPA will close its headquarters library to everyone, while having no plan to offer the hundreds of thousands of unique documents and books to anyone in the near future. The Democrats have now entered the fight -- Bart Gordon (TN), Henry Waxman (CA) and John Dingell (MI) are asking the GAO to investigate.

On August 9, 2006, the Miami Herald reported that a Big Sugar front group calling itself Florida's Working Families had begun targeting gubernatorial candidate Rep.

State Senator Rod Smith -- Davis' opponent in the 2006 Democratic primary for governor -- had supported the bill and the sugar industry. Read More
