Now that Barack Obama has been elected president, is it time for the mainstream media to get out of Obama's tank? Nope.   Chris Matthews: Well, you know what. I want to do everything I can do to make this thing work, this new presidency work. Joe Scarborough: Is that your job? Matthews: Yeah, that […]

Sen. Robert Byrd will be stepping down as the head of the Senate Appropriations committee. The move came after the Senate agreed to rename the committee: "The Robert C. Byrd Committee for the Promotion of Pork." The committee becomes the 10,000th thing to be named after the senator from West Virginia. Others include: The Robert […]

I just got done watching President-elect Barack Obama's first press conference.

This is a more appropriate subject for a book-length treatment, and maybe one day I'll get to the point where I've done enough research and devoted enough thought to the issue I'll write about it more in-depth. For now, in the waning days before Tuesday's election, this article will have to do. Let me start […]
