The MPAA is back -- this time, before the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) -- asking permission to disable lawfully purchased HDTV-capable TVs.
[First, a cheap plug for my blog Senate Guru.] The man who beat non-Democrat Joe Lieberman in the 2006 Democratic Senate primary in Connecticut urges...
Recent signs of recovery and those who say the recession is over are cold comfort for the millions who are still searching for work or have stopped looking. Their world is bound by paying the bills and raising families.
As I start to exhale, I am realizing, personally, that Specter is not right for Pennsylvania at this time.
The public option will create competition and will help to provide affordable choices for American families. It will also allow us to greatly expand the number of Americans with health insurance, and that is an imperative.
The most significant news about Obama's democracy-crushing efforts in Pennsylvania, Colorado and New York is not what it says about his integrity, but what it says about his political priorities.
