And guess when it was (AP thru SF Gate) Saddam Hussein’s intelligence agency secretly financed a trip to Iraq for three U.S. lawmakers during the run-up to the U.S.-led invasion, federal prosecutors said Wednesday.

This looks good for McCain (Gallup) A sizable proportion of Democrats would vote for John McCain next November if he is matched against the candidate they do not support for the Democratic nomination. This is particularly true for Hillary Clinton supporters, more than a quarter of whom currently say they would vote for McCain if […]

Via CNS News, which will probably be the only news outlet to carry the story Rev. Jeremiah A. Wright Jr., pastor emeritus of Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago where Sen.

Today, BHO plans to give a major speech on “the larger issue of race in this campaign.” He plans to explain what goes on in Black churches, which certainly seems to include lots of change, sometimes violently, and lots of hope, for violence.

Happy Monday! Time to get busy, shift a few paradigms, invest in your future. How ’bout a beer? Obama supporters are going to need a beer after this story.

OK, let me get this straight (as so many others have said, as well): Barack Mary Obama has been going willingly to Reverend Wright for 20 years. Wright married Barack Mary Obama and his wife Michelle “America is just mean”. Obama’s children were baptized by Wright. Obama’s kids go and listen to the hate speech […]
