  • Let Sleeping Blue Dogs

    True North

    The old quote is to "let sleeping dogs lie," which means that some folks are best left uninformed of what is going on about them. I'm wondering if this adage applies to the Blue Dogs in Congress.  Surely this should not be the case for those we elect to be ever-vigilant of our liberties' [...]

  • Republicans disrupt House

    Norwegianity

    Number of comments: 1
    Screaming, shouting, pantswetting Republicans doing their damnedest to disrupt the healthcare debate this morning.

    mnpACT!

    by Dave Mindeman
