Do The Right Thing: Hillary for Secretary of State
What better message to send than to appoint as our secretary of state a woman who is already known throughout the world as a principled and gifted fighter for freedom and equality?

Obama's decision to use complete sentences in his public pronouncements carries with it certain risks, since after the last eight years Americans may find his odd speaking style jarring.
Yesterday a document was released that was signed by over one hundred retired generals and admirals calling for repeal of the gay ban.
A student in Iowa contacted E&P with an account much in line with reported incidents of other school kids, some as young as 7 or 8, talking about "assassinating" Obama.
Sen. Reid's new bailout bill for the Detroit Three does not set additional fuel-economy requirements, nor does it establish a government oversight board. That's two strikes against getting our money's worth.
We are eager to work with the new administration. With that being said, we also stand ready to act to hold the new administration accountable if it fails to enforce laws protecting the environment.
"People who say the U.S. doesn't innovate are woefully out of touch with Detroit's standing in this business."
Surprise, surprise, the party of ideological purity that wouldn't yield on anything in the last eight years has had a deathbed conversion about bipartisan government.
Because Obama is himself reflective, people conclude he can afford to surround himself with reckless brilliance. Not. He needs cabinet officers who are equally apt judges of people and policy.
President-elect Barack Obama today named Eric Himpton Holder, Jr. as the next U.S. Attorney General. He has accepted the position, pending a Senate approval.
We still do not have a final Presidential result in the state of Missouri, 14 days after the election. As was shown time and again this election, our nation's voting systems are badly broken.
The question is whether the good to be had by appointing Hillary Clinton to a high position in the incoming government outweighs the bad. Is she really worth all the baggage? No, she isn't.
Comedy -- or at least political satire -- speaks truth to power. It's much better when that power isn't tapping your phone without a warrant and suspending habeas corpus. The Bill of Rights: Good for Comedy.
Though all men were declared equal in 1776, a terrible political compromise meant people of certain racial heritages were not considered full men.
My initial reaction was that it was a brilliant and inspired move. I'm now wondering whether the Clintons' pride and their wish for more Clinton legacies allow her to say yes, if offered.
Lucky and I checked out the Fourth Annual Cool vs. Cruel ceremony honoring fur friendly designers and retailers who exude compassion in fashion.

There. Finally got my tame comment in there.
Anyone else notice the Republicans did n;t go to c.hu.rch? Hyp. o. crits.
The censoring here is getting ridiculous.
Where are the Obama's going to worship?
What religion are they going to cling to?
They sure have a lot of churches in DC...who would've guessed.
There are many churches in DC. That's one reason I would like to live there.; there are lots of pipe organs too, of course. At least the Evangelicals can be relieved that there are so many chrches in DC, even though they may not like the denominations.
