"What's the catch?" "Excuse me?" "What's the catch? What's the angle?" "I don't know what you're -- " "Obama. What's he up to?" "You mean beside...
Since 2001, American workers have seen a 172 percent increase in out-of-pocket medical costs. And these are mostly people with insurance. The number without any coverage is up five million.
Like when I investigated and reported on Larry Craig after 26 years of rumors, I've turned fresh eyes on this case and recently noticed an interesting inconsistency with McConnell's public Army record.
Let's be clear, the Republican senators' moves against the Detroit bailout is not about $15 billion, which is a rounding error in the context of the Iraq surge or the financial bailout.
Hey, this is another really good effort from Sunlight Foundation. You can check out links like the following: Senator Ted Stevens, currently the sub...
You would think that winning the White House and overwhelming majorities in both houses of Congress would instill some backbone into Democrats on Capitol Hill. You would, of course, be wrong.
Is the thought of a black man with his "finger on the button" just too much for the Republicans to bear? Congressman Geoff Davis just exposed the tip of the iceberg.
Chao's 'leadership' at the Department of Labor should not be emulated by anyone. She has undermined the agency and failed to serve in the best interests of workers she is charged with protecting.

Wilkinson's self-serving act has set off a world-wide frenzy of speculation, particulary oil speculation, with traders in London and Dubai holding onto their oil stocks in order to obtain a better price in Euros than they can now achieve with dollars.

Great Job!
bull. bush 2 has entered the building.
Pretty hilarious that during the election Obama was accused of being so liberal that he was a socialist, and now that he's going to do exactly what he promised, he's "bush 2"?
What a riot.
Damn if he does, damn if he doesn't. Its getting quite pathetic
