What happened in the National Assembly on October 22 was unsavoury but expected. Yet there is one good reason for wanting to comment on the proceedings of the house that day: General Pervez Musharrafâs constant

When voters enter the polling booths in November they deserve a clear pathway forward on Utah's voucher policy.  Right now there are several lawsuits moving through the judicial system, and I will be watching with great interest to see if clarity results.

I just read an article on the Village Voice website that summed up one of the complaints I have had for some time about the Democratic Party: They won't fight.  At the same time, they are trying to convince conservative voters to vote for them instead of the Republicans and are losing votes on the liberal side as a result.   For both of these problems, I blame the Democratic Leadership Council.

I love these NeoCon vote supression rules.  They're *sooooo* cute!  I have some more:   - If you've ever traveled outside of the US you can't vote.   - If you have a graduate degree you can't vote.   - If you make less than 6 figures you can't vote   - If you can spell Nuclear and pronounce it correctly then you can't vote.   - If you haven't accept Jesus as savior then you can't vote.   - If you've never ordered anything from Bass Pro Shops then you can't vote.  This is fun... if you can think of anymore please add a comment!

More and more bloggers are waking to the news:  Lessig :   ...  "Bush has won the popular vote. And it would take a freak of nature to imagine the 220,000 provisional ballots would fall strongly enough to shift Ohio. He will win the College. He is our President - legitimately, and credibly."  "Our criticism of this administration must now focus narrowly and sharply: on the policies, not on the credibility of the man."  Joi Ito :  "As Larry says, "It's over. Let it go." Jon is saying, "Don't complain - organize!" Although the previous post about the wacky voting system is interesting, it's unlikely that any sort of recount or technicality will change the fact that today, the people of the Uni ...

Lawmakers have come full circle after devoting more money to high-tech voting machines following the 2000 election debacle in Florida. They now say a return to the paper trails of old is the key to an honest vote, exasperating state election officials.

The core of democracy is tolerance of other people's views. Whether it is Rosa Luxemburg's call for respecting the "freedom of people who think differently" or Winston Churchill's pride in British parliamentary ...

I am extremely glad to see the DUP standing firm on commitments made to the electorate. The DUP made its case clear to both governments and to the public time and time again.
