Voter fraud or defrauding voters?
I don’t watch the Faux News Network, so I was a bit surprised when Sen. McCain suggested that ACORN was committing voter fraud. [Nicholas][], as usual, has a link to the answer: check out the [Voter-Fraud Fraud][vff] article online at … Continue reading

Over on Call Me Fishmeal, Wil Shipley is linking to a speech on economics, democracy, media and the environment. It’s a broad topic, and the transcript of the speech is a relatively long read, but it’s well worth the effort. … Continue reading

The Governator put his political life on the line in the lead-up to yesterday’s special election. Unfortunately for him, every one of his propositions was defeated. (Arnold was pushing Props. 74, 75, 76, and 77.) There’s been much talk that … Continue reading
