Submitted by Stars Over Washington Blog
No, it doesn’t require glue sniffing or kool-aid swigging to imagine the GOP’s slowly forming strategy when McCain was so obviously past his prime in the 2008 presidential run and Republicans saw Barack Obama attracting millions of people with his orating abilities and winning personality.

Is 2010 Ousting Time for the US Congress?
Submitted by Stars Over Washington Blog
Well, it should be.
As I always complain: 99.9% of them are in it together with their fraternity of the ruling class taking precedence in every department over the American people and over our nation’s sovereignty.
Actually, I’m not fully certain of the motives of the remaining .1%, now that I think [...]

Obama: new remarks on Iran’s crackdown on protesters
Submitted by Stars Over Washington Blog
US President Obama bears witness, June 20, 2009.
Yes, I’ve been glad he hasn’t stepped into Iran’s fray, believing that it would (and still can be) used against America as ‘meddling’ (as we’ve done so many times before.)
But it’s getting late and speaking out cannot be postponed after today’s violence.
