A lot of you have seen the speech, some have not. Overall, high marks for contents. Very high. I think he brought out the right issues, positions, and comparisons with Obama. He’s working out the differences, which he needs to continue to do. Probably the three key areas that he addressed and should continue to [...]

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi called President Bush “a total failure” on [...]

Odd, that someone of Obama’s education and political experience is “puzzled” that anything he has to say would not elicit some reaction. Worse yet, after taking such a strong position on Iraq and providing such a specific plan to withdraw troops (still on his web site today):
Obama will immediately begin to remove our troops from [...]

As Sister Toldjah so eloquently put it, we thank the members of our armed services, their families, and their employers. We can never show you the appreciation you truly deserve, and we can never make up for the cost in your personal sacrifice, the sacrifice your families have endured, the challenges of returning to civilian [...]
Joe Lieberman, Independent Senator from Connecticut (although, oh, he does still caucus with the Democrats in the Senate) explains his position supporting John McCain today in the Stamford Advocate. Lieberman says McCain is “really a reformer” who is not bogged down by partisan politics.
You’ll recall that in January Lieberman and McCain co-authored a well-written [...]
