The party that was once the champion of small government, low spending and personal responsibility has left us with this legacy:
Largest unemployment lines in over 15 years;
Largest number of people receiving unemployment benefits in 20 years;
Largest and most expensive government in decades;
Likely to be the weakest economy in over 80 years if predictions that our [...]

Even though McCain supporters continue to boo on cue of hearing Obama’s name, McCain’s concession speech revealed the kind of candidate that I admire, and one that I personally feel would have probably made the campaign a far more close race.

Don’t get me wrong… I’m excited to think that the United States may finally end its racist monopoly on the country’s highest position of power. For all of our bullshit and crowing about freedom and our progressive democracy, the U.S. is one of the few democratic nations on the planet that has yet to [...]

Everyone is talking about the elections, the primaries and the candidates. The media conglomerates are in a tizzy over who said what, comparing each front-runner to the next, and making predictions over who will ultimately win the chance to make a run for the White House.
The “issues” of this year’s race have been defined [...]
