Who Died and Made YOU God?
Jun 26, 2008 - 02:06 pmLet’s forget the moral question about capital punishment for just a moment.
(Can’t wait to see how THAT goes over).
On this, the occasion of Virginia’s 100th execution via the death penalty, let’s explore just how EFFECTIVE it is as a deterrent to crime.

Posted by Jody Lee Seriously, Obama - Why In the World Southwest Virginia?
Jun 12, 2008 - 12:06 pmOf all the places Obama could have kicked off his general election campaign last week, why in the world Southwest Virginia?
Honestly, the first thing that crossed my mind was that he was considering Mark Warner – who appeared with Obama at his kickoff in Bristol – for the Veep position. And frankly, from a Democratic viewpoint, that would not make for such a bad ticket. Not bad at all.
Barak’s “Moment”
Jun 03, 2008 - 10:06 pmLast night, Obama talked about “the moment” it all began.
Our children will one day look back and say this was the moment….
The moment that ended in free health care.
The moment that ended in a healthy environment.
The moment that ended unemployment.
The moment that ended a war.
The moment that ended hunger in America.
The moment that ended lack of health care for every citizen.
The moment that ended the lack of a college education for every citizen who wants it.
