There was a time when the CIA was a law unto itself and carried out all kinds of illegal activities. If you thought those days were gone, they apparently returned during the Bush presidency.
You may recall the incident in 2001 when a private plane carrying Baptist missionaries was shot down in Peru killing a [...]

With Mark Begich having a lead now of over 3,000 votes, AP is calling the race over. Only 2,500 votes remain to be counted, making the difference too great to overcome. Begich will go to the senate from Alaska. I suppose this dashes any hopes Sarah Palin had of becoming the next [...]

The Bureau of Land Management (BLM) is doing whatever it can to help the Bush administration wreck our public lands. Back in February, I wrote:
They can’t be serious…. The federal government has come back to the idea, sensibly abandoned in the early 1980s, of extracting tar sands and oil shale in Utah. These are [...]

Serious problems with vote rigging in Alaska in 2004 (which favored Republicans) were never resolved. This time around the fix is in and puts the smell of rotten fish to shame.

Update: Same problem in Georgia, a million missing votes.
From Mud-Flats, Crunching the Numbers in Alaska
In 2004, 66% of registered voters turned out to vote in the presidential election between George Bush and John Kerry.
In 2008, including the votes still outstanding, only 54% of registered voters turned out.
Huh? Lower turnout in the biggest election Alaska [...]

All politics is local, and when Lisa Johnson came to my door asking for help in her campaign for the Utah House of Representatives I resolved to do my due diligence this year. Today I walked a precinct in Sandy for Lisa, who is just the kind of representative you want in the state [...]

There’s been a great deal of talk about corruption in politics. The last 8 years have seen a truly shocking level of corruption in government - from the Republicans K Street Project, to the Bushies’ endless politicizing of every aspect of government starting with no bid contracts for any firm connected to the Administration [...]

Maybe Reid and Pelosi are smarter than we thought…
The attorneys in the case have said that Connell’s testimony may well lead to the subpoenaing and under-oath questioning of Karl Rove, who, they say, would be unable to use Executive Privilege as an excuse to avoid such a subpoena in a civil RICO case…
